I'm up, I'm up - about seven-and-a-half hours of sleep.

Happy birthday, Stephen Sondheim and that British fellow.

Ditto and ditto!

The Orville was excellent again last night....and there was a very pretty song.  It was nice to see Gordon get the center spotlight....

I look forward to watching it.

Me, too.  I won't be able to see it until this weekend.

Seattle is going down the tubes.

My grandfather is buried in this cemetery.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/seattle-homeless-crisis-historic-cemetery-overrun-with-drugs-and-prostitution-amid-worsening-problem?fbclid=IwAR1efcCFUqo5gbirGtCqfgA-x0DlP-ATcK78XeKtAA5ATsK9o6-qfq48Lug

I just spoke to the person who runs the cemetery.

He's says there is nothing they can do.

They won't hire a security guard.

The cops won't do anything.

In fact, he says that there is "no problem".  :( :( :(

Thankfully, I don't live in Seattle any longer, nor do I ever plan to visit again.  >:( >:( >:(

I posted this on the Seattle FB page.  I got several  :( :( :( , then the administration took down the post.

I guess they are happy with the dump that Seattle has become.   :( :( :(

DR Druxy I am sorry your grandfather is buried in that cemetery. 

I guess the story was removed to protect tourism.  I also suspect you were not the only person to share it there since I have recently seen a number of stories on the problems in Seattle.

I had to run to market for Thatch's deli turkey and a few other items.  I called Joshie and left a message but I suspect he's up to his butt in orchestra parts for the recording.

That’s awful about the cemetery. But it’s doubly awful that the city would remove the FB post.

I’d probably be tempted to write an old fashioned letter to the editor. If published, that would certainly raise some hackles - and no one could delete it.

We will be in Seattle in May for a day.  I wonder what it will be like.  Portland has been bad for a long while now :(
The one thing we don't miss in Ashland are all the transients on the sidewalks.

DR George, thank you for answering my question from last night about the Erythritol. I had never heard of it. I'm glad you found an acceptable sugar substitute.

DR Jane, I've never seen ChocZero in the stores, but there's at least one other company that uses monkfruit. I haven't tried their chocolate, but those bars are in some stores.

I was surprised to receive an email from my medical group today, asking me to fill out a little survey. 99% of the questions were about my doctor, as if there are no other factors. They provided a space for feedback. I told them what I thought of their facility, but I don't want someone turning this into a criticism of the doctor. I've seen some surveys that are structured like that.

ChocZero is a small company and would like to see small stores sell their products. Jane, if you know of any in your area you might want to let them know. The customer reviews are very positive. Did we mention that they sell chocolate syrup, too?

Had a nice two-hour lunch meeting, basically giving my strong thoughts to the author of a new musical.

Then I came home and finished the commentary, so that's done.  And no news on the book order - my gal told me she'll be in tomorrow, so tomorrow I will not be fun to deal with if there's any further delay on this.

Chocolate and other flavors!  Of the several that I've had, they've all been very good! :D

Well, I need to head to the theater.  My friend Margo is going to go tonight.  I wonder what she'll think of it.

Be back later.

Thanks Jeanne.  I saw the syrup but am not a bit fan of chocolate syrup.  There is a specialty market here I might check out, however, I don't go enough to have them stock something for me.

We ended up eating at Beaches tonight though we discussed going someplace else.  We were glad we did as the people with the seeing eye dog were there, and the husband who finished his rounds of radiation.  This is the gentleman that had to have a feeding tube. Before it can be removed he needs to learn to chew again and to eat more.  Tonight he had soup and half of an ice cream dessert, mostly eating the melted ice cream.  DR Vixmom I recall the challenges you faced once you could eat again.

Also, they finally, as they have been promising, got Antica vermouth just for Keith's Manhattan's.  They normally use Gallo-yuck.  Tonight I also had a Manhattan and it was delicious.
