Oh, no!  Peter Nichols: British playwright dies aged 92.

....The musical comedy Privates on Parade was inspired by Nichols' own experiences in the real-life Combined Services Entertainment, which provided live entertainment to the British armed forces.

It was adapted for the big screen in 1982, starring John Cleese, and was revived in 2012 as the opening production of the first season from the Michael Grandage Company at the Noël Coward Theatre in London, with Simon Russell Beale in the lead.

His other plays include The National Health, Forget-Me-Not Lane and The Freeway.

I've been home for about 30 minutes.  The first thing I did was take off my shoes and lie on a heating pad.

[elmore3003]

Today I proofread one of my favorite Mack & Mabel songs, "Look What Happened To Mabel."  I wasn't sure about guesstimating my time this morning, but I got to the pharmacy around 9:30m and then to City Center by 10:00.  That was great timing, but it doesn't always run that smoothly.

[ChasSmith]

I am back, and I pray that the upload is continuing without interruption!

John I don't understand your sherbet comment, could you explain?

They misspelled it sherbert, not sherbet, on their menu.

Can’t believe I forgot Ballroom.

I got my new drivers license today along with a notice that my chest x-ray for the pre-surgery tests was was denied by my HMO and I owe for it.  I guess I'll be fighting with my HMO and West side Radiology tomorrow.

Back from an unplanned but fun lunch with David Wechter, over at Corky's - very good!

I'm concerned about the upload, which has NOT arrived.  I don't know how these things work, but Gerrit was leaving and what if the iPad goes to sleep, which, of course, it would, does the upload continue automatically?  I know that's the case on the COMPUTER when I upload to Dropbox - if it takes ten hours I go to bed and the computer is in sleep mode, but the upload completes.  I have a back-up plan should it be necessary, which I'm prying it's not, but I don't know if ChasSmith will be up for it.  Well, let's hope for the best.  No Indiegogo funds yet - if it goes to Thursday, then I'll e-mail them.  By now, all the cc stuff should have gone through successfully and completed so there really is no reason to hold funds, although in the old days it was always two weeks.

John I don't understand your sherbet comment, could you explain?

They misspelled it sherbert, not sherbet, on their menu.

"Sherbet Or Sherbert? - Everything After Z by Dictionary.com

https://www.dictionary.com › sherbet-or-sherbert
Sherbert (pronounced “shur-bert”) is a common misspelling of sherbet that resulted from a common mispronunciation. Its prevalence has resulted in its inclusion in some dictionaries as an alternative spelling. Both pronunciations will get you a scoop of a light, frozen, fruit-based refreshment in the US."

[Jane]

Ooops I always says Shur-bert.

Good vibes you don't have to pay for this.

Hoping for the best vibes for Bruce.

I cheated and searched the Internet Broadway Database to find what I found.

When the doctor orders a test for me and I call to set up the appointment, I will be told if I need pre-approval for the test.  An appointment won't be made until the pre-approval is received.

I have the referral from my doctor.  That should cover it.

[Jane]

I hope so.  I am finding more tests & treatments, all referred by my doctors, that didn't use to need pre-approval do now.  If your insurance required the pre-approval they should not have done the x-ray.

Vibes you easily get this straightened out.

No video - am assuming it didn't work for whatever reason.  I texted Gerrit and told him to keep his iPad lit up to see if the transfer will continue.  I asked ChasSmith to call after his rehearsal so we can figure out the next step.
