Good morning, all! I slept well. In my last dream I was sitting in an auditorium with Michael Feinstein about a FUNNY GIRL ON RECORD concert, costumes with frogs and epaulets, and a lecture I was going to give in London.

I am back to City Center this morning. I am having a good time working with Joshie, and we laugh a lot. I got through one and a half numbers yesterday, and I'm curious to see what new numbers will be waiting for me.

George, re Shakespeare's Star Wars, if anyone ever needs a theme song, this was from my parody book:

Darth Up Your Shakespeare
Tune of Brush Up Your Shakespeare

The Shakespeare lovers don’t think they’re nerds
They find sci-fi too dull for words
But now we find in their folio
R-2 and C-3-P-O
So the next new Broadway hit
I’ve no doubt, not one i-ota
Since the book’s done with such wit
They’ll love the Bard crossed with Yoda

Darth up your Shakespeare
Work in Luke and Han
Darth up your Shakespeare
Cash-flow worries will be gone

You will find there is no other plan akin
To a Iago played by little Anakin
Princess Leia will take any slam at her
If she‘s Kate in iambic pentameter
Bet your Hamlet would fly with Chewbacca
Though it sounds just a bit off your rocka

So darth up your Shakespeare
And you’ll gross anon
Dough goes on and on

LOL DR FJL....very nice.

Very interesting reading about the creation of the WTMW book. ANY information and photos that you include will be of great help to those performing the material.

I always like to see photos - not to copy of course - but just the get the feeling of the original productions.

Good morning, all.

Coffee, baby. Coffee.

I'd forgotten that I have a birthday month free admission to a movie at the local Alamo Drafthouse Cinema (local being Yonkers, NY -- most of them are in Texas, but they are expanding little by little), and it expires at the end of the month...so I'm going to go down there this afternoon and see something. Of the films they're showing, I'll choose either The Big Short or the Star Wars movie, depending on my mood at the moment.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** December 30, 2015, 06:02:30 AM »

Ask BK:

I've lost track of when this was happening, but did the WTMW sheet music books ever go out or is that still to come?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #19 on:** December 30, 2015, 06:09:12 AM »

That formatting business sounds like a nightmare, though I guess BK's experience goes to show that it's possible to make peace with it.

I know I haven't yet achieved that in the few things I use Word for, which is pretty simple stuff. I find the defaults to be strange in general, but it's precisely that sizing and spacing stuff that blows my mind.

Thanks, Jrand!

Here's a question for the class:

To which I'd probably know the answer if I'd been paying proper attention...

Is there a good national chain or mail-order* place for getting decent eyeglasses that don't break the bank, that anyone cares to recommend? (*I guess we don't really say mail-order much any more, do we? We just say "online"?)

I sat down at the keyboard yesterday to casually sightread through some music and was shocked, shocked at how poor my medium distance is in my current (old) glasses. It's better in contacts, but I don't wear them on a daily basis like I used to.

Wednesday morning greetings! Still sneezing and coughing here and I'm getting real tired of it. I did manage to get to the grocery yesterday afternoon, but it wore me out.

Thank you, DR Chas Smith! Remember, my doctor says it's "just" allergies...

I get told that, too, and it doesn't help!

If you belong to Costco we have had very good luck with the glasses there for the past several years. If you don't belong to Costco it is probably worth it just for the optical servicesthe last time I went to LensCrafters it was more than $600 for my specs.... We just paid less than that for specs for all three of us

Wait, what?! Was that vixmom posting at 10 am on a work day?

I am just back from the clinic where I was diagnosed with "acute bronchitis"
