Unfortunately I could not find it in my heart to live the pilot and we parted ways

But oh! those flights!

I also once took a helicopter ride through the Grand Canyon.

I likewise enjoyed that immensely

But I’ve never been in a seaplane, although I often saw them landing in the Great South Bay back when my Dad was boating

I tried something new with my stuffed peppers

I prepared them last night and let them cook on low in the slow cooker over night

vixmom · « **Reply #279 on:** June 21, 2023, 08:01:33 PM »

This morning I transferred them to a Pyrex casserole ( yep still use my Corning ware stuff) and put them in the fridge

vixmom · « **Reply #280 on:** June 21, 2023, 08:02:44 PM »

To night I just needed to warm them up and dinner was ready in two shakes of a lambs tail

Tonight during what the director calls "chaos" - everyone is wandering around the stage before the act starts....doing scripted and unscripted things.

I was looking at props. Suddenly Grant - the very handsome young actor came up and started giving me performance notes. I said "WHAT?"....and he kept it up.....I was very perturbed with him and gave him a very hard time.

He had tears in his eyes....and he said: "I'm doing chaos."

I was mortified, his character is the director of Murder At Havisham Manner.....

I finally realized what he was doing. I apologized....but I am going to buy him a nice bag of candy to make up for it.

Oh, no! I hope he enjoys the bag-of-candy-apology!

The rest of the show is scripted.

Yes, and all of the "mistakes" are scripted, too.

Well the "chaos" just has suggested things that the actors talk about...the crew is still working on the set, the actors are looking for a dog that has gone missing, everyone just does general mucking about.

Then the director chases us all offstage so he can give his curtain speech.

I may need to see this for myself.

Yes! Highly recommended!

The Play That Goes Wrong - I'm sure some adventurous theeder group will be doing it near you soon.

There's a one-act (and one-storey set) version and a two-act (and two-storey set) version.

George · « **Reply #286 on:** June 21, 2023, 08:22:20 PM »

I ran the sound board for the one-act version here in Olympia.

Cool! A former co-worker and her husband took a helicopter ride over Mount St. Helen's. She said it was amazing.

Apparently, TCM is undergoing such upheaval that the channel may be dead soon. Sad. It’s the only channel I would watch besides PbS and MSNBC.

Halfway through a documentary on Elizabeth Gaskell. Fascinating. I need to read more of her.

“Wendy Rush, the wife of Stockton Rush, the OceanGate chief executive who was piloting the submersible that disappeared Sunday during a dive to the Titanic wreckage, is a descendant of two first-class passengers who died when the ocean liner sank in 1912, archival records show.

Ms. Rush is a great-great-granddaughter of the retailing magnate Isidor Straus and his wife, Ida, two of the wealthiest people aboard the Titanic for its first voyage. Mr. Straus, born in 1845, was a co-owner of Macy’s department store.”

Incredible. Just read this in the NY Times.

Interesting.

I just saw this article:

Dear David Zaslav: Gutting TCM Will Not Help You Win Filmmakers Back to Warner Bros.

Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, and Paul Thomas Anderson have organized an emergency call to David Zaslav that will take place today to advocate for saving one of the greatest brands in cinephilia.

Ida Strauss declined a lifeboat to stay with her husband.

Between my coughing and my headache it will be a challenge.
