Hey, that video is damned good, DR Elmore!  Very nice.  And yes, it makes me want to know and see and hear more about the show.

One little constructive comment, if I may:  On my screen, the image of the performance portions are squished a little bit horizontally (or stretched a little bit vertically).  Interview segments are perfect, and I'm no techie, but I'll betcha the performance ones could be pulled out to the full 16x9 sides and that might be the correction that's needed.  If it can't be fixed, well, most people don't notice this stuff anyway.  But I do.  :)

P.S. -- DR Elmore should do commercials.  "A little moonshine goes a looong way."  Perfect!

A friend who has a lot of family in MA told me that it's there, too, and people are saying that the only thing that helps is sleep. They probably don't know about Sambucol, which I feel does help. Unfortunately, even Sambucol can't knock it coompletely.

And the word of the day is: TESSELLATE!

That Gershwin tune, TESSELLATIN' RHYTHM, has always been a favorite.

Yesterday was a fun day at the office.  Lots of interesting, even challenging, work - one project after another.  The day flies by when that happens and it reminds me how much I like this numbers work when it's about interesting work.

Glad you're enjoying your work, Fred. I think this is the first time I've heard a tax person say they had a fun day at the office.

Just a guess, but since they're putting in the intermission, perhaps not much at all?

I've heard they're doing 95+% of the book, possibly all of it.  What I won't know until I see it on Saturday is what the costumes are like.  Most of the nice comments I've seen are about how good the orchestrations are.  One FB friend praised me, and I responded with this:
thank you for the compliment, but it really deserves to go to my colleague and adopted son, Josh Clayton, who is one amazingly talented young man: orchestrator, archeologist, copyist, and my favorite collaborator. He's City Center Encores! behind-the-scenes genius and I am lucky that he chose me to be a friend and mentor. He did the hard work, and I proofread and threw in my two cents worth of opinion.

I suspect you're being far too modest.

The Kritzerland show sounds wonderful!!!  I hope to win the lottery between now and the LA Show, so that I can be in attendance for that.

DR ELMORE - we need photos of the reunion!

Ditto!  Ditto!!  And Ditto!!! :D

I have a doctor's appointment this morning at 10:30.

We have several matters to discuss including some not-so-fun side effects I seem to be having to one or other of my medications.   It's a sort of out-of-body-but-not-quite feeling.  I feel like I'm just a tad separated from myself but still attached.  This has been going on the past two days.

I remain functional, but it's almost "inner-ear-infection-ish" in terms of the feeling I sometimes get, but my inner ears are fine.

Looking forward to discussing this with her this morning.

~~~Feel Better Vibes for Ron!!~~~

The music is quite lovely and SNOWMAN ON THE MOUNTAINTOP is great fun. I found the history of the show very interesting. Very nicely done.

Ron, I hope you're able to make some minor adjustments that clear up the problems. I've had inner ear infections and they're not fun. I can't imagine a faux ear infection is, either.

Back from doctor and enjoying a nice lunch of salmon with green beans and scalloped potatoes.

Doctor has dropped my Metformin medication and doubled my Glipizide dosage.  That works for me.

Other changes are coming up, but she needs to speak with a cardiologist first.

My strange episodes are either minor side effects of Lasix (aka furosemide) or the by-product of either low blood pressure or low blood sugar.

I still have the metformin to take plus Farxiga. Don't know the meaning of low blood sugar lately.
