Well, you've read the notes, the notes conjured up 1962, and now it is time for you to post until the 1962 cows come home.

And the word of the day is: CONFABULATE!

I just listened to last night's Kritzerland test and it was great! Can't wait for the show on Sunday!

And now, here's the very non-professionally framed picture for my sister's boyfriend's birthday:

I went to the local Dollar Tree and got some gold metalic wrapping paper and put that behind the picture instead of the plain white paper that was in the poster. I was thinking that black would be best, but they didn't have any. So, since a lot of the costumes have gold in them, I figured that gold surrounding the picture would look good. I hope he likes it...and that the picture doesn't shift in the frame before I can give it to him!

Here's a close-up of the pattern on the wrapping paper:

Listening to Toscanini's Brahms and reading 1962.

Is anyone going to watch Live from Lincoln Center: Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel? It's streaming on YouTube, and according to the earliest comment, it'll be available until Tuesday, September 8 at 8:00 pm ET.

Saturday morning greetings! Yesterday was a really unfocused day for me.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #16 on:** July 11, 2020, 05:49:19 AM »

Good morning, all.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #17 on:** July 11, 2020, 05:53:06 AM »

Hmmm, now what do I follow that up with?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** July 11, 2020, 05:55:19 AM »

It's a Saturday. Let's be clear on that.

Because yesterday was yet another Friday that was a Saturday for me, simply due to circumstances around the house. So here I am, once again having my second of two Saturdays in one weekend. And that's not necessarily a bad thing.

T.O.D.

Impossible question, but I'll pick 1961.

In no particular order:

THE GUNS OF NAVARONE
THE HUSTLER
JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG
WEST SIDE STORY
BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S
SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS
POCKETFUL OF MIRACLES
THE MISFITS
LOVER COME BACK
EL CID

For me it's the period of roughly 1959-1963 that was the apex of the century. And I'm not just talking movies, although you can demonstrate this with movies alone, which shows how remarkable they are as a benchmark. I go with the theory that every segment of the culture reflected this. (I saved an article somewhere that, while not all-encompassing, opened my eyes forever to this time period. I'll post it when I find it.)

When and where are they holding the Democratic National CONFABULATE this summer?

It looks very nice DR GEORGE!

Still seething over that Fat Orange Slug's pardoning of Roger Stone. I am so hoping Ghislaine Maxwell's got really incriminating evidence against the Fat Turd.

I fed the cats this morning and went back to bed. Once Annabelle and Stella ceased their visits to check on mt, I slept for about 90 minutes. I had a dream I no longer remember.

Last night on the television I watched a version of this new musical. you probably have never heard of it because no one has ever mentioned it anywhere....but it's called Hamilton.

I found it to be very entertaining and I think I will enjoy listening to the cast recording much more now that I have seen it....

My horror is its future productions by cut rate half pint over reaching idiot theatres who are convinced they have the talent to pull it off.....

I did have a curious dream last night. DR Ginny and Richard were in Manhattan, and I met them on 56th Street to give DR Ginny aq ticket for a performance of Cole Porter's Jubilee. I got to the performance at Carnegie Hall and sat in the audience wondering why she was late. The performance began and, during the overture, I got into a fight with a young lady sitting on the aisle directly in front of me who kept talking loudly to a friend across the aisle.

The production was endless, no one could act, and I kept watching for DR Ginny, who never showed up!

I have no plans beyond kitty cleanup, a bit of vacuuming, and playing two or three bills. The cats and I will spend a lot of the day watching the TV.

So nice to see DR TCB has returned.
