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

It is the sixth largest fair in America.  You bet there are a lot of rides.  Sadly a lot of the venders couldn’t find enough people to work for them.  A lot of the regular places never opened this year.

One hamburger stand who has been there since the Fifties, usually hires over 200 employees, but they could only find 43 this year.

And speaking of your Titanic recording...last week at the PFLAG garage sale at my sister's house, when the sale was over, there was a lot of stuff left over.  Those of us who were working the sale took stuff because whatever was left was going to be taken to Goodwill.  I took a few DVDs, and in the small selection of CDs was that recording of Titanic: The Ultimate Collection!  Even though I know I bought it new when it was originally released, I don't know where it could be, so I took that leftover copy and I'll listen to it at work today! ;D

I slept really well until 3:30 or so. Then, I could not get the tricky 9/8 Act One finale of Gilbert & Sullivan's Ruddigore out of my head. God knows what drugs Sir Arthur was taking.

I listened to it once or twice. Not bad. But not something you need to hear repeatedly.

Instead of participating in 9/11 memorials tomorrow, the Former Guy will be providing live ringside commentary at a boxing match.

Seems about right.

A really scabrous review of Dear Evan Hansen. Particularly harsh on the score.
