So sorry about the loss of your friend, Elmore. But it’s also good to know Rebecca has come through her bout with COVID given her other health problems.

Well, I don't know that she has, beyond what Danny posted.

I loved what a commentator on CNN said:  The President is now telling us that he didn't tell us what he just told us.

No more sleep for me.  Doing a rehearsal via Zoom at eleven.  Pill has kicked in so I'm not feeling terrible.

The wonderful Rick Unterberg. passed away of COVID complications - his clever spoof creations included "Golda Meir, My Eye" and "If You'd-a been Judah Ben Hur". but lots of wonderful non-spoof songs, and the piano bar pianist at the Town House since it opened in 1990.

Stella and I had a nap.  Then I spoke to Joshie on the phone, and we discussed the idiot calling himself a president.  I do wonder if any of his idiot followers have taken a dose of Lysol or Clorox.  I really don't know why any network keeps broadcasting his complete and utter stupidity.

Paperback arrived and looks fantastic.  Hopefully, hardcover will follow soon, then I can place the order.

The momma cat watched while I watered this morning. I brought out a dish of food and she hissed at me for getting too close. But I came back later and the plate had been cleaned.

I am glad she ate.

DR George, here's the link to the 1988 Scottish Opera production of Candide:

This damned virus is getting too close for comfort.  My friends Danny Burstein and his wife Rebecca have come through it, and this morning at 4:45 it murdered my friend Richard Galgano, who had been homebound and in frail health for some time.  Richard was one of the administrators of the Facebook page "Vintage New York Stage."

I'm so sorry, Larry.  My condolences on the loss of your friend. :'(

Today at Ye Olde YoueTubee - the National The-yater is streaming its production of FRANKENSTEIN beginning NEXT Thursday.

It stars Benwa Cucumber and should be quite popular with the populace. He plays the Creature for a week or so, and then he switches parts with Jonny Lee Miller who plays Victor F. the next week.....   8)

I've seen both of these in the cinema and love them!

Huge vibes for TCB's sister.

A friend here, a young man in his thirties who was a major force in our Smorgasbord cast, is diabetic. A couple of weeks after the show closed we were informed that he was in the ICU with ketoacidosis. It took them several days to get him back into balance, and he was sent home, whereupon we subsequently learned that he also struggles with clinical depression and now he's having a rough go at that. Altogether, it ain't no walk in the park.

~~~Vibes of All Kinds for ChasSmith's Friend!!~~~

Pizza has been retrieved.....nicely cooked.

I like the Aldi Brand - Mama Cozzi - particularly the rising crust version....

I have found (for me...your mileage will vary) that the difference between a not-so-great frozen pizza and a better-than-not-so-great frozen pizza is extra cheese.  Helps every time. ;)
