I like supporting Powell's. After having to close their stores due to the virus and laying off the workers their was a surge in online orders to support them. They were able to rehire over 100 workers full time with employee benefits.
I decided I had seen enough movies with the two Italian flicks I watched earlier. Instead I listened to an interesting book called George by Alex Gino. It was on the banned books list, so I wanted to see what the big deal was. It was a YA book about a kid who realizes she is transgender. Very hard for the kid, to be sure, but it showed other people just how hard it can be. So, a book about tolerance, of course, is going to be banned. The Great Gatsby was banned this year in an Alaska school district by a school board that proudly announced that they weren't going to bother to read challenged books.

For the first time in a month, I heard from our producer for MURDER ON THE NILE. We are still going forward with a July 17 opening, but they want to have some table reads starting next week. Why?
