Since I have upgraded my Mac to El Capitan, my screensaver has disappeared. I was up past midnight trying to fix this from googling. I'm biting the bullet and calling AppleCare today.

My cousin Sue Ellen and I have been psasing back and forth our journals of the year of my dad's death and burial. It's been most informative seeing her perspective on things.

She writes about a trip she, my dad, and I took to see my mother's brother Bob who was also on his way out, and then a trip to the cemetery to my my mother's grave. Her journal entry is how crabby and argumentative my dad was at Uncle Bob's home and how tense the whole day became. I didn't notice any of that in my account of the day.

DR TCB, that's good news about Sandy! Has your weather calmed down?

DR ChasSmith, is the ACT ONE music original or songs from the period?

DR George, I like your mantra. I wish I'd heard that forty years ago! About then I fired an actor from the cast of YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN. He wanted to go to Manhattan to audition for the failed 70s revival of HAIR, told me he'd return to Ohio on a certain date, had too much fun in New York, and came back several days after that. He was dead meat.

I did not do anything with the new DVD player yesterday, so I guess that's on today's agenda. I'm thinking I may do my summer furniture arrangement as well. I need to clear space around the air conditioner.

And more coffee!

Original, by Louis Rosen -- I'll PM you the info -- but they also want to use three period songs: Second Hand Rose, When Irish Eyes Are Smiling, I'll Be Loving Always. I don't know if these are specified in the script or if this director is choosing them, but I'll be looking for copies of those.

last week when Vixdad and I were at Barnes and noble I started reading a book called "uprooted" by Naomi Novik

I was unwilling to shell out $16 for a paperback so I stopped by the library and was pleased to find a copy. I wonder if Jennifer has read it, I am enjoying it so far

Actually I've never even heard of this book.

Tonight, Ken and I are going to the Japanese Teppanyaki restaurant. Similar to Benihana. This is a complimentary dinner for Ken from the casino.

I have never heard of a complimentary dinner from the casino.

How much do you have to have bet to get a free $30 dinner on the casino?

I know. Keith has never been gifted anything.

Enjoy the dinner.

It has become a very nice day out on deck.

I had, as predicted, a burger and potato salad.

I've opened the Blu-ray player and I'm already confused.

Thanks, Larry. I think I first came across it myself just a couple of years ago. I have to confess that I haven't always been the most punctual actor, but if I knew that I was going to be late, I would always at least call to let them know that.

While sitting out on the deck-nice.

Do they have veggie burgers? We were pleasantly surprised to find them on our recent cruise.

A friend sent us this entertaining clip for Passover.

I love the quality of the picture and the sound of music on my new computer.

My iMac screensaver appears to be up and running again, thanks to the AppleCare people!

My old region-free Blu-Ray DVD player has apparently learned it's been replaced and today, after battling it to retrieve a disc, it has died and gone to Toshiba heaven. I've asked my technical friend Heller to help me set up the new player and I'm waiting for him to give me a time. It's Passover, so I'm sure his schedule is limited, but I hope it's soon. I'd like to be sure this new one is working.

Be back later!
