Warming in the ice chest.  Sort of like being in the house with the furnace on when it's -15 outside.

I really need to do laundry. But, my dryer vents to the garage and I need to open the door to let the hot air out.  Not a great idea when it's -15

TCB, I think after your day yesterday, you deserve to have your team win the game today.  I don't have a favorite, so I'll cheer for the Seahawks

When my friend Beth directed GREASE last fall, she was asked by the company if she wanted the "stage" version or the "high school" version - which is more like the movie version even MORE cleaned up.....

So I would guess there are different scores available for whichever version you want to do.

I hope MR BK has a full dress rehearsal report.....there is to be some "audience participation"......

There's only one vocal score published and that's the stage version with cleaned up lyrics. I would guess that anything else French would provide is either a typeset /digitized or manuscript score.  the published score also added piano accompaniments, wgich match nothing on the OBC recording, since the original keyboard parts were lead sheets.

It's kind of a battle ground DR JANE.  A lot of hearing people have also learned ASL, and it is taught now instead of SE....but most people, deaf and hearing, use a combination of the two.

I learned SE and have only learned a bit of ASL, since I no longer work with deaf people everyday....but it is seen as archaic....

DR LAURA there are many good books for learning ASL.....using them in combination with some YouTube videos can give you a good base.  ASL uses facial expressions and STRONG hand and finger movements and has its own syntax usually putting the verb or adjective/adverb before the sentence subject:  i.e. "Go....I...." as opposed to "I go...."

Thanks for explaining.  So what did they teach on Sesame Street when my boys were little ;)

We are home from Rob and Mary Linda's church and a lovely anniversary lunch at Bravo Italian Cucina.  Richard and I are now spending a romantic afternoon watching football and taking down our Christmas tree.

Thanks DR ELMORE, I didn't look at what she got, only heard what she said.  I guess the high school version does have extra music from the movie....."Hopelessly Devoted to You" and "You're The One That I Want"......

Seems we're about to get another of those half-inch snowfalls.  This time it's approaching from the south, and NYC is getting it first.

DR TCB, I'm sorry about the Seahawks.  If they'd had one more quarter I think they could have pulled it out.

I can feel the temperature dropping. Light snow expected.

I don't recall that.  Because of Sesame Street, and the fact a neighbor child couldn't speak and the family was learning sign language, Bryan was learning it when he was five.  The rest of us knew a little bit.  We moved though and it was basically forgotten.

This afternoon we saw THE BIG SHORT.  I had thought Bale was nominated for best actor and realize now it was for supporting.

I thought Steve Carrel was excellent.

My daughter's plans for the day include several hours in the bathtub reading her Kindle -- her favorite way to spend a day off.

I would be too afraid that it would fall in the water!

I did not see the first half. But I really was not happy with who won. They completely sucked for the entire second half.  I hate that they played so poorly yet will advance in the play-offs.

I have read books in the bath, but no way is my Nook going in there. ;D
