I don't know if it's accurate, but this was an interesting summary of OKLAHOMA by "PlayWiz," who in real life is a wonderful actor who i saw in a play last year:

In "Oklahoma!", Jud is killed because of events that passive-aggressive Laurey sets off by using him to provoke jealousy in Curly.

I would have thought more naive than passive-aggressive.

Has anyone tried Mayochup?

It sounds like 1000 Island dressing without seasoning.

That was my exact thought, DR Jane.

I am glad I wasn't the only one

That's reminiscent of this:

I saw my therapist, Erik, today about my right arm, which has been bothering me for weeks. I don't think it's anything more than a simple strain, but I'm right-handed and I've no doubt I stress it throughout the day in little ways.

Does it feel better after Erik worked on it?

Jeanne has NOT read GEE, mainly because she's so busy I haven't been able to get her a copy, like that's an excuse.

Quite right, Bruce. Not having a copy is no excuse at all!

After hearing so many good comments about the AMC series THE TERROR, I made the commitment to it last night by watching the first two episodes. It’s pretty great so far, and I’m told it only gets better. But I’m a sucker for all things Arctic (and Antarctic) like this.

I need to get some music playing here. Don’t know what yet.

If you like Arctic settings, did you see FORTITUDE? It's an interesting mystery series that takes place in the Arctic. Very well done, I thought.

I mentioned both shows to Keith.

Speaking of low energy, last week I mentioned to a friend who's a telephone psychic that I was feeling rather drained. His response was, "Everyone is!" He said he'd had call after call for the past week of people saying how tired and drained they felt. Change of seasons? New flu strain? Pollen? Heavenly activity?

My low energy is not worse than usual.

I changed hairdressers today, in part for convenience and in part I was displeased with how she cut my bangs. The new location is less than an hour walk each way, only it rained today. Fortunately Keith was able to pick me up on his way home and I didn't immediately ruin my hair.

I am not sure the bangs are better. I will have a better feel for them when I wash my hair next. I loved that the place has European style shampoo sinks. Had I know this I would have switched a long time ago.

Jane · « **Reply #100 on:** April 13, 2018, 06:38:20 PM »

European chairs are far more comfortable and your neck is positioned so as not to do harm.

DR GINNY weren't you going to the foot doctor? I did I read that post without my glasses?

Yes, DR JRand, Richard and I both saw her yesterday. He has to go back next week to have a toenail dealt with. I wanted her to check out both of my foot injuries from last fall and to weigh in on the residual pain in my right ankle (broken toe aftermath). She thinks that has more to do with varicose veins and recommended RICE - rest, ice, compression, and elevation. She wrapped my foot and ankle, which I’m to do at night and wear compression stockings during the day. I’m already feeling some improvement.

We just finished watching Downsizing, a very peculiar movie.

Watching Carola, a filmed play of Jean Renoir's. Leslie Caron, Mel Ferrer and Anthony Zerbe are wonderful. The story is of a Parisian theater troupe during WWII. A German general had an affair with the leading actress and wants to resume it. Meanwhile, a French officer is trying to hide from the Gestapo. It's somewhat comic and occasionally tense and altogether Jean Renoir.

The symphony has announced a fairly ambitious new season and hopefully it will be around to perform all of it.

My favorites include several pieces of Ravel, such as Tzigane and the Piano Concerto, the Mahler Symphony No. 9, and a performance of Alexander Nevsky, which I hope will be done with the movie.

When I worked at a waterside restaurant (back in my younger days). The restaurant menu boasted "Home made salad dressings"

vixmom · « **Reply #117 on:** April 13, 2018, 07:52:34 PM »

French dressing was mayo and ketchup

Russian dressing was the same, with a teaspoon of hotdog relish

Ran away??
