DR Elmore, this latest Just-Try-to-Access-a-Ride thing is distressing. What's to be done? You have appointments coming up that you don't want to be missing. (Duh.) (Like you didn't know that.)

I hope that if/when the radiation treatments begin, I can do a subscription or something to get a daily time for the 30 days I'll be in the treatment.

And to add insult to injury, I've been on the phone with Spectrum because my remote was not working. The young lady was wonderful, and all is back to normal.

Monday morning greetings!  We have a quiet day ahead, but I've already accomplished one very important thing - ordering our Thanksgiving turkey to be picked up next Wednesday.

DR Elmore, I'm so sorry the ride thing isn't working for you.

Fiddler on the Roof

Pygmalion

I am sure had I seen the stage production of Oklahoma it too would be on my list.

I love to browse and look at GoldBelly, but have never ordered anything. Prohibitively expensive!

Glengarry Glen Ross (is it actually a comedy?)


I forgot The Miracle Worker.

Casablanca was a play?

An unproduced play. I saw it staged later. Nope. It didn’t work without the stars.

  The detective or an actual French grapefruit? 

I guess I'd take either.

That Piecaken looks wonderful. However, I will remain loyal to my Cherpumple.

The Cherpumple makes such a satisfying "THUD" when you lay the slice on a plate.

There are lovely, snazzy arrangements and some lovely, swinging Tony. But Lady Gaga occasionally seems to be channeling an Italian, House of Gucci accent. There’s no subtlety there. Granted, Ethel Merman wasn’t subtle either, but she had more depth of interpretation.

I may end up liking the album more on repeated hearings. I’m so picky about my Cole Porter.
