Well, you've read the notes, the notes were deep, and now it is time for you to post until the deep cows come home.

Well, I'm off. Tomorrow night, Theater Artists Olympia is having a movie night! We're going to show "Bucket of Blood" and "The Brain That Wouldn't Die." Tonight, we're going to test everything. I have a couple of microwave ovens that we will use to make popcorn to sell, and we want to make sure that they don't trip the circuit breakers. And we want to make sure that the movies look good on our newly made screen.

Be back later!

Well, it turns out that the extra microwave oven that I had (it was donated for a future TAO garage/yard sale that hasn't happened yet) did NOT have the glass turntable and plastic-wheely-ring-support-thing. It also turns out that the glass turntable and plastic-wheely-ring-support-thing from my microwave oven fit the other one, so we decided to use that instead of mine because it's easier to program. We also made popcorn in several different ways and think that a couple of them will work.

It took a bit of figuring things out, but we got the projector to work and it's pretty darned cool! The screen that was built is great! First, we tested "Bucket of Blood" for a few seconds and then Pug (TAO's artistic director) wanted to check out "Hell-Boy" (one of her favorite movies). Neither Laura nor I had seen it before, so we ended up watching the whole thing! Tomorrow (if anyone actually shows up) will be a lot of fun.

This morning, I am driving a friend and one of her daughters to the airport. They're going to California to the visit the college where the daughter will going in the fall. I really should be in bed so that I can get up very early.

Good night and have a good day, all!

Hey, Sing, I've been talking to one of my sisters and I also saw reports on the news this morning before I came in the office. I know you said you're on a hill but I hope things are OK with you flood-wise! My sister said that MN is about to have the wettest June on record. The Mississippi River looks pretty wild. She's in North Minneapolis and I don't think she's in any danger of flooding but you never can tell.

re: the KFC thing that they are now saying is a hoax. Will the girl still get any of the money to help with reconstructing her face? Even if they were not at KFC, she is still badly scarred, right? Not her fault if her grandmother or whoever created this stunt.

Jennifer · « **Reply #10 on:** June 25, 2014, 04:33:57 AM »

Actually I just googled it and KFC is still giving the girl the money, which I think is a lovely thing for them to do. They unfortunately got a ton of bad publicity and I think this generosity will go a long way.

Good morning, all! I am taking a bus to the market for celery in the immediate future. When i return, i've got laundry to do, and then hopefully the super will finish up the bathroom.

I've worked with Stritch three times, two Men's Chorus concerts and a Merman Gala with her and the Plaids, Lypsinka, Patti Lupone, Bette Midler, and Lainie Kazan. Each was an experience.

DR John G, I hope your dad's birthday was a very happy one!

Thanks, DR Ben! Absolutely no danger of my home being flooded, but in the area generally - yes, a big problem! Some bridges have had to be closed due to the rising rivers.

I feel especially bad for the farmers - some of their fields are simply under water.

The whole angst over the film of INTO THE WOODS boggles my mind. the show's a second-rate musical and any changes could be possibly be for the better, the original noisy production is documented and available commercially, and perhaps it's all desperate publicity.

I can use some health vibes.

I have two major health issues. One involving a biopsy and other involving a possible stomach operation

Good morning, all.

Thunder rumbling overhead. Flood warnings in effect until about noon. Steady rain up until this very minute. Got disconnected from work-at-home connection. Fun.

Loving the Stritch stories. I only saw her live in A Delicate Balance. She was amazing. So was the whole cast.

A huge dose of health vibes to DR Mike.
