I saw Kaye Ballard at Jason Graae's concert. Kerry recognized her and said hello to her.

Nice memory. Her version of You’ve Got Possibilities on Jason’s CD is wonderful. Well, their version...

Kaye first recorded for me on the very first album, Unsung Sondheim with her deliciously wicked duet on There's Always a Woman with Sally Mayes.  She replaced Marilyn Cooper on one of the Lost in Boston albums - Coopie couldn't handle the key the song was in but I'm not sure why it was in a key she couldn't handle, since we set those things with the singers.  And then she did Jason's album.  She was a treasure.

Yesterday for the first time I used the WalMart self-checkout for my entire order.

It took a bit to get used to it....but now I think I have it.  I am not happy about doing someone else's work - the prices certainly haven't gone down.....but you are really in charge of how long the checkout takes.....

Keith prefers it.  I feel the same about doing someone else's job, or taking away a job.  Around here if you want to reuse your own bags you have to bag them yourself, might as well do self check.

Alas, our improved covid numbers was a fluke. A lab missed the deadline for reporting, so the number was lower. It's back to our usual 3000+ per day.

That happens occassionally.

The painters have begun.

Yay!

They didn’t actually paint. They caulked and power washed everything. Tomorrow the painting begins.

I am excited.  I look forward to your final opinion.  This is one of the rare books I gave 5 stars.

When I was a kid, The Mothers-in-Law was a favorite in our house, which is where I first got to know Kaye Ballard. Later, when I discovered Ben Bagley, she lit up every album of his that she sang on. There were a number of her albums in that movie last night that I had never heard of. Nice to know there’s a world of her singing waiting to be heard.

Well, lunch, which should have been great, is a four-star disaster.  I decided to order Dino's Pizza, free delivery and all.  I ordered last night and the pizza arrived with a little salad I ordered.  I open the box and it's pepperoncini not pepperoni.  I go back ready to really get nasty and see that that's what I ordered because pepperoncini and pepperoni are next to each other and impossible to tell apart when glancing.  I've salvaged as much as I can, but I hate spicy stuff like pepperoncini and this was a total waste of money, save for the salad.

Kaye Ballard appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in October, 1958, on the same episode in which Miss Frances Farmer made her second appearance singing "Down In The Valley"......while playing a guitar.

Commentary is finished, so that's good. I'll finesse it in a couple of days.
