So James McBride composes AND writes books?

Yes. He does it all.

Just like Rupert Holmes!

Hello, everyone.

What a great birthday celebration Elmore had! Much deserved.

The A&T illustrations are lovely. A gentle touch.

Vixmom, when you win the billion you will be sharing, right? Personally, I’d be just fine with a cool 10 mil. No need to be greedy. Even here in CA I could buy a house and have a bit left over.

Rodzinski: I do hope things get "sorted out" for the better.

Yes, from me, too.

I should give up wheat and grain, but that would mean no cookies, no cake, no pie.

No pie, but there are quite a few surprisingly good GF options. GF bagels aren’t as good, though.

From Vixmom:

They have this lovely new returns policy whereby you bring your items to a local Kohls or other participating retailer, show them your return code on your phone , and they take the items, back and return them to Amazon

Great idea, and you might be enticed to shop-very clever.

Here, we can take returns to Whole Foods, the UPS store, or a couple other places. Very convenient. No fuss with the packaging, which was always a gotcha.

I’m home. Feeling puny. Just slept a couple hours.

Feel better pronto. I’m hearing this from lots of people.

James McBride won the Stephen Sondheim Award for composition about 10 years ago. I will have to investigate more of his work. I loved his novel, Deacon King Kong.

I recently bought one of his novels, but haven’t.’t read it yet. Great interview with him a month or so ago on the PBS NewsHour.

Good night.

John G. · « **Reply #163 on:** October 02, 2023, 09:15:12 PM »

Good night, all.

I've just been dozing all night.

bk · « **Reply #165 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:37:46 PM »

I'm gonna try and be in bed no later than one-thirty. I really need a good night's sleep and I have a Zoom thing with our costume person at 12:30 so I'll have to be up by eleven-thirty.

I don't understand this page six malarkey.

bk · « **Reply #167 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:38:18 PM »

And not very far on page six at that.

bk · « **Reply #168 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:38:31 PM »

Perhaps George will be here sooner than later.

bk · « **Reply #169 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:38:39 PM »

Rather than later than sooner.

Where WAS everyone today?

bk · « **Reply #171 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:38:57 PM »

Was it a holiday?

bk · « **Reply #172 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:39:16 PM »

Was it a day for a band to play?

bk · « **Reply #173 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:39:25 PM »

Was it a Day-O?

bk · « **Reply #174 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:39:57 PM »

Was it a Day by Day? Wouldn't that have been a perfect title for a Doris Day album, yes or no?

I like Poppycock with cashews and I don't care WHO knows it.

bk · « **Reply #176 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:40:37 PM »

However, if WHAT knows it, that's an entirely different story.

bk · « **Reply #177 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:40:44 PM »

The story goes on.

bk · « **Reply #178 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:41:05 PM »

On the Town.

bk · « **Reply #179 on:** October 02, 2023, 10:41:16 PM »

Town Without Pity.
