Good evening.

This afternoon I saw a local production of Rock Horror Show. We were instructed not to get out of our seats to dance, which was a strange instruction for some people. Most people (me included) didn't know the audience's lines. Only a few people shouted out lines.

Elmore, I would have taken the 9:15, because he wouldn't have showed up until 9:45.

Hugs, JRand. Today was a hard day.

Back from Bible study. They changed it back to Sundays so I could attend.

It was nice.

Rocky Horror is about the participation. That sounds like your production was less than interesting.

I'm now back to The Strand, episode 3. The whole thing as begun to fall apart.

Gratuitous post No. 99!

John G. · « **Reply #100 on:** November 21, 2021, 06:37:40 PM »

In a matter of 30 minutes or so, I've lost all interest in the production.

King's novel was a linear narrative. This miniseries plays with that for no reason whatsoever.

It's faithful enough, but by tell you some outcomes and then flashing back to the setup, the directors and writers are just making things boring. This ain't Homer, and we don't need to begin "in medias res."

That was very nice of them. I am sure they missed you.

I missed them, too.

Episode four of nine in The Stand and we're still going back to before. Come on, storytellers. You can do better.

EVERY production that I've seen here in Olympia had audience participation...carefully controlled audience participation, but definitely expected and enjoyable audience participation.

Well, today we all went to my sister's for our family dinner and Michael enjoyed it all, too.

George · « **Reply #111 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:50:49 PM »

We had a whole bunch of little things so that nothing was a huge undertaking...other than the shopping yesterday.

George · « **Reply #112 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:51:31 PM »

It was all quite good and quite enjoyable.

George · « **Reply #113 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:51:52 PM »

We then played Phase 10...and I won!

George · « **Reply #114 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:53:30 PM »

I was the only one on Phase 10, and I was dealt the cards for the phase, so we didn't even have to play out the last round.

George · « **Reply #115 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:54:11 PM »

A good time was had by all.

George · « **Reply #116 on:** November 21, 2021, 07:54:18 PM »

And now, I'm home.

John G. · « **Reply #117 on:** November 21, 2021, 08:19:59 PM »

Congratulations on your Phase 10 win, George.

Thanks, John.

It'll be a while before I win again, I'm sure, but that's the nature of cards...you work with the had you're dealt.
