Interesting set of cast CDs.  I am not really that interested in any of the shows.
I have a reservation on A Strange Loop at the library. I want to hear Mr. Saturday Night out of curiosity. The rest, meh. And I even like the London version of Six.

Darrell Brooks can't stop. At the sentencing hearing, the victim statements were given - quite a few heart-wrenching stories, while he sat there and rolled his eyes upwards, pretended to read his bible, at times acted like he was possessed, I mean the full show. Then he couldn't shut up - this was not his time to interrupt for any reason, but he did and he was immediately removed from the courtroom, until he contritely asked to come back a few minutes later. Then, when the prosecution was giving their thoughts about sentencing and recounting his endless criminal history, some of it quite serious, and most of it not dealt with by a failed court system in various counties, who continually let him off the hook, he had the temerity to sit there and say, "I'm not gonna be disrespected." Well, yes, you are because you're a murdering piece of scum who deserves zero respect from anyone. I believe and trust that once his three people (he originally said it would be more than twenty) speaking on his behalf are heard, and once he gives what I'm sure will be an endless tirade about HIM as victim, he will be sentenced to the maximum extent of the law. He'll appeal, of course, but since the judge in this case did everything right, his appeal will be laughed out of court.

And then Trump, trying as he always does to shift the focus of all HIS losses during this election AND all his potential criminal indictments, supposedly has a big announcement at six/nine. IF he does announce that he's running, I hope that he is stopped from doing so, based on all his potential criminal prosecutions or, at the very least, I hope he can't use running for president as a shield from them - that's what has to be stopped in its tracks. I do believe that many Republicans have had it with him and their losses in this election have shown them that he's a liability rather than a help. The hope would be that another candidate would win over him in a primary, but I do believe even if he's the nominee, he will lose the election.

I made some noodles with butter and cheese - the two bagels that were left, which I'd planned on eating, were not fresh enough, not even toasted, so all I had was the five ounces of noodles. Whether that will be enough, time will tell. I never left the house today. And I've done no work because I have had one irritant after another.

Oh, and the silly Broadway World nominations are out - I purposely didn't submit Kritzerland this year because why bother. But LA Now and Then is up in most categories that involve musicals, so please go vote asap. https://www.broadwayworld.com/los-angeles/voteregion.cfm

I read an interesting article about the fact that Trump could actually run, and become the next president while in prison.

If it is for the events of January 6th, then he can't run.  I don't believe that will ever happen.

Since Bruce didn't answer my questions I guessed.  Not on the first question and it really wasn't important.

Wouldn't it be nice if Trump's announcement was that he wasn't going to run? That in the best interest of the Republican party and the country, he'll sit it out?

Does he have that in him to do? I'd say history has shown us that he doesn't.

Two articles of note in the latest issue of Gramophone magazine. An interesting article about yet the latest remastering of Solti's recording of Wagner's Ring Cycle. BK would enjoy it because it goes into geeky detail about the master tapes and various sources and technical specs and how they have been manipulated with engineering.


Also, an article comparing all the various recordings of Britten's War Requiem. My, there have been so many.
