I think it was a doggy toy - I think his husband threw it.

Apparently, he used the wrong track for She Touched Me. Alex Rybeck did a track for that one, but Jason apparently used Richard Allen's track, which I hadn't heard, but when I heard it I thought it didn't sound like Alex - too square.

Great show. I watched it on Youtube.

Congratulations on a great show, BK.

Good night, all.

I enjoyed the show and the commentary very much! I watched on YouTube because if I comment on Facebook or send a heart it causes a hiccup in the proceedings....

I am sure it is my computer or inner web connection....

Spending a little bit of Sunday with Huck Finn and the AMTSJ production of Big River.

I love this score, but I've never seen the show. I guess I can now!

One of the videos under the UP NEXT column is the AMTSJ production of City of Angels. I've actually seen two different productions and they were both very good! I REALLY love this score...especially since The Manhattan Transfer's music director Yaron Gershovsky did the vocal arrangements.

I needed a little treat so I had two little egg things wrapped in tortillas. I had only had the mac-and-cheese earlier, so hopefully it won't cause harm. And I'll be a VERY good boy tomorrow.

Finished with my viewing and listening to Toscanini do Saint-Saens.

I got my house 20 years ago for $64,000. Just got a statement from my insurance company that the value is $180,000, which is about $20,000 more than the tax level on it. Houses in the area are selling for $15,000-$175,000.

Are they still standing? If so, pick me up a couple.

I bought my condo 13 1/2 years ago for $160,000 and the Zestimate is now at $237,718.

I bought my condo one year ago, and the value has gone up by $23,000.00.

I need to be up early tomorrow in order to walk prior to an appointment.

Jane · « **Reply #138 on:** July 12, 2020, 11:12:43 PM »

After the appointment I might not feel well enough for an afternoon walk.

Jane · « **Reply #139 on:** July 12, 2020, 11:13:18 PM »

Fingers crossed.

At one point, the Zestimate for my condo was down to about $35,000...total!

Fortunately, that changed.

While I was growing up, we had three major department stores (four if you count Sears) in downtown Tacoma.

TCB · « **Reply #144 on:** July 12, 2020, 11:19:56 PM »

My parents broke up when I was four or five, and mom and my sister and I moved to Tacoma when she got a job there teaching music in a junior high school.

My mom didn’t have a car, at first, so on Monday or Friday Evening when the stores were open until 9:00 pm; the three of us would take the bus downtown for some shopping and dinner at Woolworth’s.

TCB · « **Reply #146 on:** July 12, 2020, 11:24:28 PM »

I have very fond memories of going downtown at Christmas time to see all the store decorations.

There was a Woolworth's in downtown Olympia, but I don't that I (with or without either of my parents) ever went there.

BK, the show was sensational. It would be hard to pick a favorite , but I truly love “Where The Boys Are.”
