~~~SURVIVING THE TWISTER VIBES~~~ for DR Jrand72 and the PCPH.

Ditto!

[John G.]

The governor, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich and former Spurs player Avery Johnson were among the speakers at the funeral. Only about 600-700 showed. They had planned for 2,000.

[George]

~~~PLUMBING VIBES~~~ for DR George!!!!!!

Thanks, Singdaw!

[John G.]

The piano.

[John G.]

One of the dozens and dozens if floral arrangements.

[John G.]

Orchids everywhere.

[George]

Gosh! I hadn't even been aware that the SAG awards had been awarded.

I totally forgot about it, too.

[George]

DR singdaw they were on NETFLIX last night.....not on any broadcast or cable station.

Oh.  I don't have Netflix.

[George]

DR GEORGE measure the inside of the pipe not the outside.....you might just need a 1 1/2"......or is this the outside of the pipe fitting?

I only measured the outside, and the threads are on the outside of the pipe.  I'll take several measurements and ask several questions.

I was taking an online training course this morning, and the instructor used "ideate" and "ideating" as verbs, meaning, brainstorming. I think that is an abomination.

[George]

I'm home. Access-a-Ride arrived early for both trips. However, both drivers were dreadful. The first literally abandoned me and my walker in the middle of the one-way East 54th Street in traffic to fend for myself. The second was no better.

That's terrible!

[George]

From last night...I really hope that I can find the right size coupling screw part thing because I don't want to have to call (and pay for) a plumber to fix that one little thing.

Good luck finding it.

Thanks, Jane!

ChasSmith, yes, the Bruin and the Chinese, but not the big Chinese because Beverly Hills Cop was there.

[George]

So, sadly, we're really going to have that snowstorm tonight and tomorrow. There's no way out of it now. The guessers are calling for three-to-six or four-to-seven inches. It's just bizarre, because it's the first REAL snowstorm of the entire winter...right when we usually like to be having our last one. (We had one smaller snowfall -- I think it was in December, but maybe early January? -- that left a couple of inches, and it was a very easy cleanup and recovery.)

~~~Snow Coping Vibes for ChasSmith!!~~~

~~~SURVIVING THE TWISTER VIBES~~~ for DR Jrand72 and the PCPH.

Ditto!

~~~Double Ditto!!~~~

[George]

The piano.

Oh, my!  That's certainly...red!

I'm seeing the "Broadway bound" Secret Garden on March 19 only because one of our girls goes on that day. After hearing the stories of what went on there I hold no hope that it will be better than okay, and Mr. Carlyle, the "director"/choreographer is now on my Rob Ashford list of people whose shows I will actively stay away from. His lack of directorial acumen caused them to replace the Mary, demote the person THEY cast to an alternate, and to bring in at HUGE expense the Amaryllis from The Music Man, which he'd over-choreographed. Our kid, who THEY cast was pretty devastated, but she gets to do three or four shows, split with our other girl who now has half the shows she was promises. Not only did they bring in the kid from NY, they got her an acting coach. They could have done that with the girl THEY cast but they didn't. I think she got less than a week of rehearsals, and the fact that she was still finding her way is pretty normal after a few days.

[George]

That's just wrong, BK!

This is a sign to stay home when it's raining in Los Angeles.

The Broadway World review - I don't recall ever seeing a bad Broadway World review, but here it is and it sounds just like what I'm expecting to see. And a DRAMTURG? But I'm sure the "critic" at the Times will love it just BECAUSE there's a dramaturg - he LOVED Oklahoma directed by the FISH wife. And the other critics here will also love it - or maybe they'll surprise me for a change. https://www.broadwayworld.com/los-angeles/article/Review-THE-SECRET-GARDEN-at-Ahmanson-Theatre-20230227?fbclid=IwAR2TfczcMr5lxLS8MUvHltdUet-J9Fe2opWUPOJSLcl0nnXrv_PTGKWUWZg

DR JANE Brendon Fraser won the SAG award for best male actor in a film last night.

I liked the story - but I didn't like the film.  I don't think it escaped its "stage" origins.  I hadn't even known it was a play, but as it went along I thought that was the case.

Fraser was fine - but the writing and the bad acting contest between the women really wore me down.  Samantha Morton as his wife seemed to be doing what Mr Noel Coward called:  "The firm, firm hand on the wrong, wrong note."

Mileage may vary.

I figured not escaping the stage origins was intentional.  My biggest issue was the lighting.  At times it was almost too dark to see Fraser's wonderful expressions.

[Jane]

BK, did WITNESS play the Bruin? That's where my memory has me seeing it for the first time. I hate when I remember wrong.

I was in Pennsylvania when Witness was released.

[Jane]

I used to talk, and purchase things from an Amish family at a big flea market near us.  She remembered me as I was her first customer.  While she sold items from other people, she was flattered that I purchased items she had made and commented the stitching was superior to the others. 

I made that comment without knowing it was her handiwork-lol

[Jane]

We talked about Witness.  She said they had all gone to see it.  She liked the movie but said it couldn't have happened.  I didn't counter with my thoughts on that.

Thanks for posting this, BK! I'm very sad for Warren because I loved working with him on Finian's Rainbow, and my friend Rob Berman is the show's musical supervisor. I don't think he's conducting.

[Jane]

Damn it. Damn it all to hell. We got really spoiled.

It doesn't take much to get spoiled by good weather.

[Jane]

That's just wrong, BK!

Exactly what I was thinking.
