I know that "mic" and "mics" are accepted shorthand for "microphone" and "microphones." But somehow, they just never look right to me. So I usually go out of my way to avoid the shorter versions.

I always want to pronounce it "mic" instead of "mike," even though I know it's "mike."

Re: Costco I was just going to say that here they no longer require American Express (which was stupid to only allow AE).

"Require"?

Edit: The second part of that is correct. My understanding was that they limited the number of credit cards accepted to keep costs and selling prices down. What's interesting is that for most regular retailers, AE is the first one to go because of their higher fees to the stores. So they must have made quite the deal with Costco originally.

I suspect DR Chas is correct. Costco operates on very, very small profit margins; indeed, most of their profit comes from the membership fees. I don't recall why they were unhappy with AE, and, of course, they don't say too much publicly.

Need to get a few things done.

Catching up with stuff from earlier in the week

DR GEORGE posted this

I thought they were recreating a scene from BULLETS OVER BROADWAY

Helen Sinclair: No, no, don't speak. Don't speak. Please don't speak. Please don't speak. No. No. No. Go. Go, gentle Scorpio, go. Your Pisces wishes you every happy return.

David Shayne: Just one...

Helen Sinclair: Don't speak.

That's funny!

Instead of watching the 4 hour version with Charlton Heston.

From DR Laura:

I buy very little at a time at Costco because I shop with cash. I have to make sure I don't go over the amount I have with me. I refuse to get an American Express card.

They will be dropping American Express April 1, 2016 and switching to Visa.

Quote from: Jane on April 04, 2015, 12:04:44 PM

I see DR George already mentioned that fact, though I did add the date

I couldn't remember when it was supposed to switch. I don't have an American Express. I only have Visa, so this (for me) is a good thing.

Thanks DR JEANNE.

I look forward to reading about CLOTHES in tomorrow's note, since I am such a fashion plate.

LOL....DR ELMORE.....I'll be here all week.

George · « **Reply #71 on:** April 04, 2015, 02:22:03 PM »

Well, I must be off soon. I have a few things to do before "Laughing Stock" tonight. One of the actors is hosting a cast party at his house, so that'll be fun.

George · « **Reply #72 on:** April 04, 2015, 02:22:35 PM »

Also, tomorrow is the first anniversary of Theater Artists Olympia's signing of our lease for The Midnight Sun (our very own performing space)! I'm on their board of directors. They are also having a celebration after tonight's performance of their show, "In a Dark, Dark House."

George · « **Reply #73 on:** April 04, 2015, 02:23:18 PM »

So, after "LS" ends and before I go to our party, I'm going to stop by The Midnight Sun and celebrate with them because I can and should. I KNOW that they will still be partying, even though their show ends an hour before "LS."

George · « **Reply #74 on:** April 04, 2015, 02:23:31 PM »

The "LS" party will be going on for quite a while, so I don't have to worry about missing that party. It's going to be a long and fun night tonight!

Have a good day, all!

Stumble-through in about twelve minutes. Then food. Then relaxation.

Well, I'm now a "member" of Costco.

I thought I'd better get tires before my drive to BWI (Baltimore-Washington International Airport) next Saturday. And Costo had a great deal on tires.

Stumble-through went well, although I felt everyone was a little under their game - I prefer that, as they will step it up for the show. We've had stumble-throughs that were so great that the show was a bit of a let down, so I'd rather have it go the other way. I gave lots of little notes - tempo, intention, interpretation, energy, etc. Most notes went to two of the kids - Jenna and Sami - I usually do that and then they're both great about taking notes and making them work. Sami's two songs, especially, are difficult, one because it's wordy and manic and the other because it's simple and you can't put too much sauce on it as she was today. Structure is good and I'm looking forward to doing it.

I also bought a giant container of cashews. Not sure how long they'll stay fresh once I open it. Maybe I should take some to share with my co-workers.
