Certainly worth $2.

Back from a jog - first time in months.

~~Sunday~~ Saturday afternoon greetings! As if this week weren't confusing enough with the Monday holiday, today was our Lima day instead of tomorrow. This was at the request of the bishop from the denomination with which Holy Nativity is affiliating. Their former denomination pretty much dumped them when they asked for help replacing Fr. Richard upon his July 10 retirement, so they found refuge in a similar one that's much bigger and enthusiastic about helping them revive their diminishing congregation. Richard and I picked up Bp. Manto at 8:15am and we just dropped him off on our way into town. We're pretty exhausted.

There's another Moss Hart bio as well, I recall. I have it. I thought there was a new Agnes deMille bio coming out this year.

Glad to have had the Filichia on Friday column for as long as it lasted. I know Peter writes for many other places; this was the only one I kept up with regularly.

Took a nap. It was loverly.

Overheard at Big Lots today:

Woman 1: What are lentils?
Woman 2: Jewish food.

Huh?

One of the reasons I brought Peter here was I thought it would drive traffic to the site (it did) and perhaps result in some sales (it didn't). That was a surprise to me.

A couple of clips of Muhammad Ali in the musical, Buck White.

Four and a half years. That's a pretty good run. It's the end of an era.

I just saw on All That Chat that James H. Burns (who posted there as "Shakespeare in the Dark") passed away a few days ago.

http://www.talkinbroadway.com/allthatchat_new/d.php?id=2337137

We used to talk regularly, and he at times had some kind of clever theater project ideas, which tended to be artistically smart and bright - except for the usual subject of where would the money come from to implement the idea. A wonderful dreamer, who obviously from all reports hit some hard times in his last couple of years.

We last talked a little over a week ago, and he mentioned some medical concerns, but I had not gotten the sense from that conversation that it was so near this tragic result.

A very good man, who died way too young.

I'm so sorry, Larry.

Twenty minutes to the stumble-through.

TOD:
I don't know that there's any really "stupid" snacks I like, although I certainly love plenty of junk food. At the top of my list is:
Bugles
Cheetos (the baked puffy kind)
Milk Duds
Red Vines
Hot Tomales

Milk Duds also feel like they can rip your fillings out. I too much prefer Jujyfruits over Jujubes. Yes, Jujyfruits are softer, but probably no one our age should be eating such stuff regardless.

Um, one post in the last three and a half hours - kids, I don't know what universe you live in but I live in one called haineshisway.com and we'd best get some damn postin' goin' on.

Stumble-through was mostly great - one singer really needs to do homework on the lyrics, but everyone else was almost perfect lyrics-wise, including me because Guy Haines didn't show.

I've been watching the last five episodes of "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

I'm now almost done with the two-hour season finale.

George · « **Reply #77 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:18:57 PM »

Well, I need to get ready to go to my friend's outdoor movie!

George · « **Reply #78 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:19:35 PM »

It's quite warm out now, so I don't expect it to be very cold tonight.

George · « **Reply #79 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:20:19 PM »

I want to go to the store to see if I can get some bug spray.

George · « **Reply #80 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:20:53 PM »

Mosquitos don't usually bother me, but you never know.

George · « **Reply #81 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:21:20 PM »

So, I'm off!

George · « **Reply #82 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:21:37 PM »

Have a good rest of the evening!

George · « **Reply #83 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:21:52 PM »

Until later!

John G. · « **Reply #84 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:38:47 PM »

Don't know if you can see this, but I saw it this afternoon and thought of today's topic.

TOD:

I would have to divide my tastes into sweet and savory.

John G. · « **Reply #86 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:42:37 PM »

Savory snacks you can purchased would have to include Chex mix, especially with those garlic crackers in them.
Regular Ruffles with ridges and some sort of dip
Cheese crackers
Goldfish
Salted peanuts
Mixed nuts
Seaweed sheets

John G. · « **Reply #87 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:46:29 PM »

Sweet snacks would have to include those caramels with the artificial sugar center
Smarties
SweeTarts
Jolly Ranchers
Lemon Drops
Goo-Goo Clusters
Bite-sized Charleston Chews
Chocolate-covered cherries from the bins at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's
Trail mix with chocolate chips or M&M's in them
Heck, whatever you're serving.

John G. · « **Reply #88 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:48:30 PM »

Snacks I like to make include roasting pumpkin seeds, candied and savory pecans and other nuts, dips to go with vegetables.

John G. · « **Reply #89 on:** June 04, 2016, 08:49:29 PM »

My latest addiction is from Stacy's, which has released a chocolate pita chip, which is both salty and slightly sweet. I found them at a dollar store and became addicted. Then I found them for sale 9 bags for 99 cents and I stocked up.
