Our Best Buy has become very untidy. I went to look at the tv selection there, and while the had plenty of TVs, only half were turned on. Some sections of the store were dimly lit, some displays had no signage, etc.

It is a good place to buy computers, and that is the only section that seems to be kept up at all, at least in the store here.

I bought this laptop at a Best Buy here in San Antonio. It was one of many they were discontinuing and it seemed as if the whole laptop area was being downsized.
That's because fewer people are using laptops and more are using notepads and notepads with keyboards.  Their desk top area is also smaller, but it's for the same reason

Yeah, fewer people actually use their keyboards to write anything lengthy anymore. I can't imagine doing a thesis or a play on an iPad and keyboard, though.

The announcement of postponing TIME AND AGAIN at 54 Below seemed pretty darn classy, that they said in announcing it that Skip's score was near and dear to them. 

http://www.broadwayworld.com/cabaret/article/54-SINGS-MERRILY-WE-ROLL-ALONG-Comes-to-54-Below-511-Replaces-TIME-AND-AGAIN-20140429#

"Unfortunately, we have to postpone indefinitely the presentation of Time and Again, a score near and dear to all of us at 54 Below," says Phil Geoffrey Bond, Director of Original Programming, 54 Below. "We couldn't find creative solutions to present the score in its best light and are postponing this until we do. We are thrilled that Merrily We Roll Along will be the latest score celebrated in our exciting '54 Sings' concert series."


"Postpone indefinitely?"  Oh no!

I'm sorry I forgot to comment on this.  Vibes it still happens elsewhere. 


54 Below told Skip they're still committed to its being done there.

Yeah!

Craig just purchased a new laptop and he needed it fast as he had papers to write.

Just sitting here extremely sick to my stomach.  Hard to know how this will play out.  We shall see.  I hope that it plays out in a positive way, but I just won't know until some point tomorrow.

I still buy desktops and lap tops.  I got a notepad and really hate it.

Just finished watching a bootleg of "The Drowsy Chaperone." Don't know how I've missed seeing this at some community theater. Really fun.

And on that note: Good night, all.

Wow. What an experience tonight.  It was incredibly powerful.  They asked at the beginning of the show that no one clap so that everyone could experience the full impact of the presentation  It was amazing.  I do have to say that the most powerful moment for me was after the show when Mr. Gans, a Holocaust survivor went up to Ryan Haskins, our symphony conductor and the real creator of this show and gave him a huge hug. That said it all to me

I also thought it was classy of our governor to attend but to do it quietly.  Unless you heard him acknowledged as being there in the beginning of the evening or unless you saw him sitting there, you'd never know he was there.  It was very respectful without making the evening a political event.  I like that
