I don't remember what was the first concert that I actually went to...maybe a concert in the park when we lived in Colorado and the local symphony orchestra played and everyone picnicked and listened. But the first concert that I chose to go to was The Manhattan Transfer! When I was a senior in high school, a friend and I went to Seattle to see them and we had a great time! I've loved them since I was first introduced to their music in high school choir, as I'm sure a lot of people were back then.

Wait...I just remembered when I was in middle school, the group Paul Revere and the Raiders came and performed for the entire school during school. I suppose that could be an early choice, but since it was at school, I didn't choose to go, but I think I enjoyed it.

That was a rather nice concert your school had.

This cruise may be the death of me yet - literally! In Pueto Rico, I was able to pick up some cold and flu medications, as well as Imodium. This morning, when we arrived in St. Thomas, I was beginning to feel human again. I went ashore, found a van taxi with a lift gate, and went to Old Downtown. Everything is now jewelry and watches, and high-end watches at that. On the way back to the ship, the driver rounded a corner and his back wheel fell into a sewer grate. Naturally, my scooter and I went over. I am not dead, or in the hospital, so I guess that is good.

Since my mother was a junior high school music teacher, probably my first concert was one of the Seattle Symphony's Young People's Concert. She took me out of grade school for several of those "field trips." The first concert I remember attending was one by the Norman Luboff Choir. After the performance, my mother took me with her to the reception for Mr. Luboff. He was a very nice man. Of course, being young and rather dumb I thought Mr. Luboff was a drug dealer, because I saw him take little pills out of a silver box and drop them in his coffee. My mother had to explain that it was saccharine tablets.

I'm happy you are okay. In another fifty years, you will look at it as the Good Old Days, just as you remember acting with Sarah Bernhardt.

Good afternoon, all.

Had trouble ordering the new book, but the order has been placed. I think. I hope.

When I clicked on the line, "Murder at the Hollywood Division -- NEW Book," it took me to Red Gold. (When I clicked on the image, I got the right book.)

Also, there was a button for Continue Shopping but it wouldn't let me order anything else.

I hate liars. The check is in my hands, postmarked Monday, March 23, not last Thursday or Friday, as claimed. Four days from Nevada I understand. A week I did not.

Do not tell me it's raining while you are pissing on my shoes. Really burns my ass.

Lou Rawls. Excellent show. Ashford and Simpson were the opening act.

I dressed for what i thought was a rock concert. Everyone else was dressed in their finest.

What a day so far. I was awakened by the damn beeping of the alarm system - six hours of sleep rather than the nine or ten I was hoping for. I armed the alarm then disarmed and it's been fine since then. I alerted the company, and if it happens again they'll send someone to deal with it - this is what happens with a stupid power outage - EVERYTHING gets screwed up. The lights outside the garage are no longer coming on from the timer. I don't know how to do that stuff either, so someone will have to come figure it out.

I had soup and a sandwich for the meal o' the day and later, having looked at the menu, I'll just have a salad or an appetizer.

Then had to deal with some book stuff - because the publisher uses PCs they could not open the Hightail files - said it was password protected even though it absolutely was not (I got a copy and downloaded it and opened everything without need of a password). My hatred of PCs just graduated to a new level. So, I sent them all eight files in one e-mail from gmail and that they got and all was well. Then they asked me for an e-mail from Dick Lochte saying we had permission to use his blurb. Say what? I responded instantly and tersely for them to stop - that Mr. Lochte has blurbed almost every single book I've written and that they've never asked for any letter from any blurber for any of the fifteen books, including last year's. They stopped and said it was fine.
