Five.

[John G.]

Alice Cooper could replace Bette in Dolly.

[John G.]

The show was fun. Loud. Showy.

Couldn't resist the finale, which, of course, was School's Out. They sent out big beach ball balloons into the audience, a theater first. And the balloons were filled with confetti.

Larry - I'm having blood sugar issues at the moment myself.  I'm trying to deal with it with diet and exercise.  I've stopped all sugar that's not in fruit or veggies, switched to gluten free bread if I absolutely have to have bread/tortilla's etc and have been concentrating on protein - lots of protein.  It takes a while for your body to adjust, but it works - quickly usually.  I've also stopped drinking coffee and switched to iced green tea - which is good for lowering blood sugar.  Also, I've been taking a cinnamon supplement which is suppose to help also.

I mentioned a week or so back that I'd started doing a daily regimen of drinking two TBSP of Red Cider Vinegar (raw and unfiltered) with some water because a cousin told me it could "drop" my high numbers.

I had a blood draw on Friday.  EVERYTHING is WAY DOWN.  Cholesterol (HDL and LDL), triglycerides, etc.  Best results of the past four years.  After only a month.  Of course, I've also been on insulin and a stronger statin (Lipitor, aka Atorvastatin) which accounts for some of it.   But my AC1 is the best it has been in years, as well.

I forgot about this. I have to start doing this. I am glad it's working so well for you

Someone just tried to scam me over the phone.

"Emily" has called me three times in the past two weeks. I must give her credit; she is very skilled at completely NOT listening to the other person and PERSISTING with her pitch. The second time she called I yelled insults at her. The third time I just hung up. I don't know if there's a way to block those calls. My phone does everything under the sun, but can it block calls?

"John" has been calling me... I it sounds like a real person but it became obvious when I started asking questions that it was a robot call

[vixmom]

Ushering for Alice Cooper tonight. Why? I haven't a clue.

Because schools out?

[vixmom]

A few years before my dad died some scammers got him. They told him he'd win some big sweepstakes, but he had to pay to enter. The first check he gave them was for $9000! They sent some Fedex-like service around to pick it up. They sent him a DVD player that didn't work, a fake diamond pendant, and a few other things. I don't think that was the only check he gave them, either. Gawd! I want to wring their necks! And why is it that nothing is done about these organizations?

They have been trying to get my mom too  fortunately my brother handles her accounts so she couldn't write  a large check without contacting him to put money into the account   They tried the sweepstakes thing with her too. Also the fake check scam.

Evening all!  I everyone is doing well.  Mega vibes for DR JRand and DR Larry.  I understand about the sugar.  I feel horrible when my numbers are up.

Yay Danise two days in a row... I hope this is a trend!

[vixmom]

Open this for a photo of a rose ice cream cone.  It is the best I can do using my tablet.

How's this, Jane?



That looks incredibly delish!

Yes please

[vixmom]

Well I had a different kind of day at work.  We went to the Medical Examiner Department today.  I didn't faint or get sick when I saw what I saw and confess I'm a bit proud of myself for not doing so.  I didn't know how I would react to seeing an autopsy or 2 or 3.

Goodness. Why did you have to do that?

[vixmom]

The show was fun. Loud. Showy.

The custodians must love that

[vixmom]

i am taking tomorrow off from work.  My mom and I are going to the Sight AndSound theatre to see Jonah with  the Forever Fifty. club form church

[vixmom]

We take the bus to Lancaster have lunch at Cracker Barrel see the show and then bus back home stopping for a snack at a rest stop on the New Jersey turnpike

[John G.]

Good night, all.

[bk]

Have been uploading lots of videos to post.

Also, just trying to figure out how to get from where we are in the Sherman Brothers show to the end of the act - it's just all over the place and has no momentum.  I suspect I'm going to have to make some cuts, maybe have Richard write a new number, and perhaps write some new dialogue.

[Matthew]

It wasn't bad. Bette's not my favorite Dolly on disc.

Sure was better than her performance in the theatre!!!!

Ow.

She sounded hoarse, she bailed on a lot of the higher notes - her low range was shot - she modified vowel sounds for some of the higher notes.... it was disappointing.  I was hoping we saw her on an off night and that the recording would show how she really sang the score.  Thank goodness it did!

[TCB]

Good evening!

[TCB]

Jrand is in my thoughts and prayers.

[TCB]

Elmore, here's hoping you can get your numbers under control.

[TCB]

Lower number vibes to all who need them.

[TCB]

Is Red Cider Vinegar a brand name?  Will any apple cider vinegar work?

[TCB]

I am so sick and tired of having this cold.

[TCB]

I am sure the neighbors are tired of hearing me cough.

[TCB]

It was another beautiful day here.  That makes three in a row.

[TCB]

I had to replace the batteries on my scooter today.  They were no longer holding a charge.

[TCB]

I wasn't about to get stranded again like last summer in Vegas.

I'd heard that the rain is going to come back for the next 10 says.

That's too bad.  Are they expensive?

[George]

Well, since we're so close...
