DR George, no one should settle for a PAL version running 4% faster than actual speed when both DVD and BD are available from the Met.

Edit: Even if it is region free.

As for Amazon US, if you search on “exterminating angel opera” you’ll see the screwed up listing on the product page. At least I did, on two different systems.

I think we're going to lose Karen Ziemba. She wasn't doing anything when I asked her, but suddenly others saw she was doing our show and immediately asked her to do stuff. But she was out of town for over a week, wasn't communicating, said her video was in Dropbox (it wasn't) then finally said she's out of town all this week and is unhappy with the video she did so if we can't wait a few days she said to replace her. I told her we CAN wait a few days but that I'd need a commitment of a date we'll have it by. Haven't heard back, so I took the step of covering that slot, which I now have. If I haven't heard back by tomorrow, well, onward we go with plan B.

ChasSmith, I took the UPC codes from the pictures on the Met's website and searched Amazon, and those listings are what came up. Also, that note on the DVD ("This is a region-free NTSC DVD, designed for playback on all NTSC and modern PAL compatible systems worldwide.") is on the picture of the DVD on the Met's website, so Amazon should be selling the exact same DVD and Blu-ray that the Met is selling. I just think the Amazon listing got it wrong and really is selling an NTSC Region 1 DVD.

After we hung up on our video chat with Freyja today their feed was still up. She got very excited seeing a large baby on the screen

Nothing happening here - and I like it that way.

Wondering what to have for dinner......time will tell.

Went to dinner with friends whom I hadn't seen since this whole pandemic began, well, except for a few drive-bys in the car. It was nice to sit down and share a bottle or two, some food and some conversation. I think we were still keeping enough space between us, even in their home.

John G. · « **Reply #112 on:** July 26, 2020, 07:49:07 PM »

Their dining area looks out over one side of their house where they have a hummingbird feeder hanging. The hummingbirds were just having a great time getting at that nectar. What a wonderful show.

Chas, I suspect that if I was put in a room with your 50 years of National Geographic magazines I would never be seen again

Very good. Delivery will be between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm tomorrow. Someone will have to be home to receive the shipment.

Will you also be including a divorce attorney with that shipment? I will definitely be requiring one should I be so foolhardy as to accept delivery

So this afternoon I went to my moms and somehow got roped into cleaning her refrigerator

Since her house doesn’t have air conditioning (well we have placed window A/C units into a couple of the rooms but there is no way to do so in the kitchen)

It was darn hot

By time I finished about 90 minutes later I was wringing wet
