I think that's all I have to say today.

All of a sudden, like, within the past week or two, I've learned of one person I know, and three or four other people who are close to people I know, or who are otherwise "known" to me in some way, who have tested positive with Covid.

None of these cases threatens this household in any way, but I can't deny that the difference from all these past months is sobering.

It is very sobering.

Jane · « **Reply #93 on:** November 27, 2020, 05:39:55 PM »

I was sobered enough, didn't need this extra concern.

The Oh, Boy! materials arrived in an email this afternoon along with a payment. Not a bad day at all.

That is super news, DR elmore3003!

I, too, personally know at least 5 people that have now tested positive in the past few weeks. None of them have needed to go to the hospital, thankfully, as hospital beds are in short supply.

I have not closely interacted with anyone other than grocery store and/or pharmacy clerks for many months.

singdaw · « **Reply #97 on:** November 27, 2020, 06:51:59 PM »

But it certainly is sobering.

So, I'm back from The Nutcracker.

John G. · « **Reply #99 on:** November 27, 2020, 07:33:18 PM »

It was a socially distanced production. The dancers all wore masks.

John G. · « **Reply #100 on:** November 27, 2020, 07:34:31 PM »

The choreography was safe. The dancing was so-so. Yet it felt good to see a live production. And the audience was highly appreciative.

Gratuitous post No. 101!

Back to watch the end of Wildlife. I'm ready for it to end. It says there are 14 minutes left.

I just don't need something this depressing right now.

Finished with my viewing.

John G. · « **Reply #106 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:05:57 PM »

Where is everyone this evening? Having fun without me?

John G. · « **Reply #107 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:06:55 PM »

I have been listening to some fine British actors read Shakespeare's sonnets, all of them. I'm up to 129. Only a few more to go.

John G. · « **Reply #108 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:08:35 PM »

The readers include Patrick Stewart, Kim Catrall, Stephen Fry, Dominic West, David Tennant, Simon Callow, Simon Russell Beale and the great Sian Phillips.

Fiona Shaw read Sonnet 154 and brought it all to a close.

I'm off to bed.

John G. · « **Reply #111 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:34:18 PM »

Good night, all.

Jane · « **Reply #112 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:46:42 PM »

Goodnight John

Here's a pic (not mine, but I should have a few of my own somewhere) of John Angevine of Angevine Farms, and the Robert Morton 3-manual pipe organ that sits in the "Christmas Barn".

Those items in the background are piano rolls.

If he's playing when we're there, I will grab some audio or video.

He almost looks like a little girl in that photo.

bk, Masaaki Suzuki and his Bach Collegium Japan just won Gramophone's Choral Recording of the Year award for their rendition of the Bach St. Matthew Passion.

That’s strange. I have the porno version.
