Last night, I ushered for The Fab Four, a theatrical Beatles tribute. I wonder how many people in the audience knew that Paul McCartney was playing up the road in Austin for only a little more per ticket.

Had a really good stumble-through, went to Barone's and had a couple of pieces of pizza, came home and have been relaxing and listening to music, and am watching a bad movie called Chappaquiddick.

What is the matter with people on Facebook.  Every month there's a new stupid hoax and every month people fall for it like complete fools.  I'm sorry but it's maddening.  It began a day or two ago with a chain mail thing saying "I got a friend request from you and I'm already your friend so your account has been cloned."  Everyone then says this has happened to millions of accounts and they share and share and share.  Well, no - it's a HOAX and someone's having a great laugh at people taking this one to new heights.  I've never seen anything like it.  They don't Google - if they did they would find numerous articles stating clearly that it's a HOAX.  I mean, I'm talking about smart friends of mine who are behaving like they don't have a brain in their head, which seems to be what Facebook does to people.  I've been correcting them all day and night and some even fight me on it, which makes them doubly foolish.  They say, "but I got a message saying they'd gotten a friend request."  Well, no, someone just forwarded the same old crap to you as if they'd written it.  They got NOTHING from you.  But you know what?  Pretty easy to find out: Type your name in the search box - if you see two accounts with your avatar then you know you've been cloned.  Everyone who is saying they've heard from people have NOT heard from people - people are just sharing this same thing - that's not hearing from people.  If there are not two accounts when you search then you have not been cloned, which has been the case with every single person who's made this post today - when they actually check there's only one account.

It's also frightening how gullible people are and how they'll believe ANYTHING, which is, of course, why the Russian bots and trolls got away with what they got away with.

It sounds like a fun day.

I have received the same notices on messenger which is even more annoying.  To me messenger is for private conversations not "copy & paste" or shared messages.  Every time I get a notice my phone beeps wherever I am and I hate that.

The dopey thing is that people think the person sending it actually wrote it and that it's real, when all that's being done is the same message is being shared over and over again.  https://www.hoax-slayer.net/pointless-got-another-friend-request-from-you-facebook-cloning-warning/

I have just picked up a ticket to see the matinee of Kinky Boots

Cool!  A national tour is coming to Olympia next year sometime!  I hope I get to usher for it.

If I was as vain as everyone thinks I am, I would say I nailed it.

That's great, Tom!  Hope you get the role!!

The director of DEATHTRAP accused me of not listing that I had done the show before.
I really had not, but because of that reading, I never did get to play the role.

:o How rude! >:(

I have mentioned the ticket in Los Angeles, actually the two tickets down the street from each other for the same car at the same time.  We could not get the impossible extra ticket dropped.

What??  That's terrible!

Good evening.  It took me over twenty minutes to get signed-on to HHW.

Well, I have heard nothing this evening, so I am thinking I didn’t get cast.

DR Vixmom I think you should ask your boss to pay for it.

That's a good idea.

Did they say that they would call tonight, or are you just assuming that they would call tonight?

Tomorrow after my union meeting (actually, I'll have to leave early from my union meeting), I have an audition, also.  The call-backs are on Tuesday.  I don't know how long it'll take them to call people to let them know.  Hopefully, it'll be soon after.
