Also, one young lady announced the upcoming arrival of their Baby Number 4. I didn't say anything. I am waiting for my son and daughter-in-law to make their announcement.

When you make your announcement it will be extra special.

Notice how my thoughts are all over the place. That is because my brain cracked sometime during the last week with all the stupidity I have listened to.

Are you done?

I have been looking for a rain jacket. The other day I purchased one and headed out to test it since it has been pouring here. By the time I changed my clothes and got out there it was only raining, not pouring. If I am going to return it I need to do so on Tuesday morning.

Done rambling? No. I probably have permanent damage.

Any one else watching JSC superstar?

I recorded it and caught the end after getting home from Mom's so watching the beginning now. What did you think, Vixmom?

The performing space looks really cool; I'd never heard of the Marcy Armory before.

But the live shown was handled much better than A Christmas Story was, no idiot MC leaping in every 3 seconds to make sure he destroyed every last bit of suspension of belief and immersion in the show

I got up at 5:45 a.m. I showered. I shaved. I dressed.

At 7 a.m., I attended a Sunrise Service at the Johnston First Baptist Church.

At 8 a.m., I had breakfast with all the service attendees.

At 9:10 a.m., I sat in my chair and took a nap.

Am going to lunch at Noon.

I would have been ready for a nap by then

I had a nap between church and lunch. I then napped one hour until my aunt and a friend came over and we played 3 1/2 hours of SkipBo.

This evening, I wrote my checks for the IRS and South Carolina Department of Revenue, printed envelopes and prepped all for mailing in the morning.

Today, I also won some items in an auction at emovieposter.com. One of them was a major find and acquisition for me. I paid dearly, but I love the item dearly, so it's all worthwhile.

Might be better watching a recorded version and skipping through the breaks

Does anyone here Tweet?

That Billy Baldwin is SUCH a cut-up. He posted that Trump announced he would be resigning.

April Fool...the news, not the tweet.

Fred, as I was getting lost last night in a section of town I rarely visit, I can to an intersection with Viva Max Drive. It was too dark to get a photo. Maybe Monday

JohnG, is "Viva Max Drive" named for the movie or novel? Or did the expression possibly predate the movie (and that's where the title for the novel came from)?

(Jim Lehrer went to Thomas Jefferson High School in San Antonio.)

I would imagine the answer nowadays would be all of the above.

Dinner at the inlaws ended around 7... My ham and mushrooms were marvelous (if I do say so myself, and I beli e I just did)

My SILs Brussels sprouts were pretty darn good and my moms cauliflower casserole was outstanding

The clams and lamb made a fine impression on my tummy. I'm happy for the evening.

Dessert was a chocolate layer cake with whipped cream icing, chocolate dipped strawberries, apple pie , chocolate pudding and vanilla ice cream

I made chocolate peanut butter pie and brought a pound cake from my friends' French bakery. We had fruit salad, ham, I brought some of Mary B's biscuits and mini quiches, and we had green beans, corn casserole and potato casserole. Carb city! I didn't have breakfast and ate moderately but still feel so stuffed. Just not used to eating that kind of food!

I tuned in @ Alice Cooper's turn. Wasn't blown away by what I heard but the technical direction is well-done, I think.

Edisaurus · « **Reply #118 on:** April 01, 2018, 08:10:25 PM »

Impressions so far...like the choreography, Judas is good but not super impressed with John Legend. I guess I feel like the performers are good musicians but aren't bringing much dramatically to the role. I like Annas better than Caiaphas. Simon is good. Costumes are kind of all over the place...there's lots of howling, not sure if it's coming from the audience or the cast but sometimes it drowns out the performers.

I think my favorite version was the one from '99 which aired on Great Performances.

Did they hire actors to perform this show?
