It was probably about $20 cheaper than if I had prearranged a town car pickup, so not a huge savings but the driver was pleasant, a nice conversationlist, the car was clean and coincidently the same year, model and color as Vixdad's new car

This is from that UK article .

Doubtless directing LuPone presents its own challenges. “I am exacting,” she concedes with pride, “and I push.” But listening to her is a hoot. “If someone has the talent they have the RIGHT to be temperamental. They complained about Bette Midler when she was doing Dolly, but she wouldn’t be exciting if she wasn’t temperamental. It’s only the ones who don’t have the talent and are temperamental who make you say, ‘Just get out of here!’” Who would dare argue?

George, yes, I think we're shipping stuff this weekend.

We are expecting another week of rain. Please ship mine in something waterproof, if possible. Thank you.

Interesting UK article interviewing Patti LuPone

https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2018/oct/11/print-that-broadway-legend-patti-lupone-sounds-off



LuPone is interesting, but the writing is just ragged and scattershot. How can you do that with a woman who practically writes her own story?

Belated Anniversary Wishes, FJL. I didn't remember that you got married. I'm beginning to lose it, I'm afraid.

I wonder if what she was getting at by “If someone has the talent they have the RIGHT to be temperamental" was actually “If someone has enough commercial drawing power, they have the RIGHT to be temperamental"

I'm glad to hear that Vixmom's adventure ended much better than it started.

Yes, a lot of food. All deserved, I'm sure.

Jane, very pleased for your good news. I'm glad the PA discussed your recovery with you. So often people don't take the time to do so.
