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

Today will be a long day. Theater Artists Olympia is having an executive board retreat. I don't know what all we're going to do from 11:0 am until 5:00 pm, but we'll be doing somethings. It's also supposed to be a potluck, so I need to get something to bring.

Have a good day, all!

That show is always fun.

Good morning!

Good morning, all! I'm working at home this morning, then meeting my friend Paul Ford for lunch at the Westway on 9th and 44th. I've got three numbers to finish for Act One of Gentlemen Be Seated! and I'd like to finish one of them before I head out.

DRs Cillaliz and JRand64, I appreciate your thought on the Mekeel situation. I do realize that he needed serious help and the friendship we had thirty years ago was a completely different one than it would be now.

Good morning, all.

Definitely, vibes all around. Vibes for the house!

My book for SHE LOVES ME finally arrived, and, as I had guessed, it's a veritable quagmire of synth string patches of various stripes, some to be played "when there are less than 3 strings in the orchestra". And we have one (count 'em) violin, last I heard. Unless the bass player is included in that count (I certainly don't think so), and I don't know if he's playing stand-up or electric. The small sound of the Broadway revival lives on!

It was an awful orchestration, and the moronic changes to the original score were worse.

Then we shall play it with relish!

And perhaps a little mustard.

Oh my. What I thought were only a couple of fairly simple-to-recall weird dreams are turning into many, as they try to fight their way into my consciousness. Bizarre stuff.

Sunday!

Well.....BIRDMAN is a movie that is very different. It is entertaining and I enjoyed it very much, but I need to see it again. I very much enjoyed all of the backstage wandering around the St. James Theater where it was shot.

BOYHOOD kept getting better and better as it went along. I ended up liking it a lot, too. This has been a good year for movies......

DR CILLA LIZ - the defense team for Jodi A. has been outrageous in its behavior during the mitigation phase of the sentencing trial. They are basically retrying the case in front of the new jury. Shouldn't the judge stop their antics? If it doesn't go to mitigation, should it be allowed.

Their witnesses are defiant of the judge and the prosecutor. Now they are asking for a mistrial because they say they have 13 witnesses who are too afraid to testify. Arias herself gave SECRET testimony for a day and half - no press no public no cameras - the Arizona Supreme Court finally ruled on Friday that that was not legal and that those transcripts must be released. No word on whether she will continue to testify, but if she doesn't, that testimony will be stricken, I assume.

Defense team has also charged prosecutor misconduct saying that they erased evidence from the victim's computer while it was in the property room of the local police department.....they have a couple of wacky computer scientists who are trying to prove that. They want all charges dropped - even though she has been convicted on murder one with premeditation and heinous actions.

It's a mess....and her defense has cost DR LAURA more the $2.5 million dollars so far.

DR George I watch Glee, but haven't had a chance to watch the premiere yet.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 11, 2015, 08:09:18 AM »

I liked GLEE for a couple of seasons, but then it turned into a dumb show that existed to sell millions of songs on iTunes.....

I haven't watched an episode since the end of season two......

Sunday morning greetings! A non-Lima Sunday for us, which is a good thing because there's some nasty winter weather predicted for this afternoon/evening. So far this morning I've undecked the front porch railing and the mantle in the family room. Next up, taking the ornaments off the family room Christmas tree!

Good morning, all.

Much warmer here today, so the morning swim was quite pleasant.

John G. · « **Reply #26 on:** January 11, 2015, 08:59:44 AM »

JRand, I agree with you on Glee. I don't know if I even made it through the second season. Can't remember and don't really care.

TCB, you can make chili however you want.

I brought two cans of Skyline back with me when I went to Kentucky. i thought I was going to be stopped at the airport and charged with polluting Texas, but nobody said a word.

I think Glee passed its expiry date after episode one

We watched far longer than we should have.

DR Vixmom I'm glad your parents are ok.
