I must be the only one here who never saw Dame Edna in anything!

No, you have company! I never saw or heard her until listening to Losing My Mind a few weeks ago. Since I don't know her work, that track felt like glimpsing a party you weren't invited to. No problem, that's why there's a skip button.

Jodie Comer won the Tony and a slew of other awards for Prima Facie, which Susie Miller based on her novel. It’s about a barrister who is raped. Comer reads the original novel on audio. It’s a powerful performance that really gets into the fears and follies of this woman who never imagined herself in this position. It’s hard to listen to at times, but Comer keeps you moving forward.

I could only take Dame Edna in small doses. Losing My Mind being one of them, possums. I found that inspired.


Here's another shameless parody self-promo (to help nudge the YouTube views a bit, if possible - LOL)

THE MILLER'S SONG (LOSING MY SIGN)-HENRY MILLER'S GHOST gripes, but OKs renaming his theater for Mr. Sondheim as the new Stephen Sondheim Theater
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phlrsBx23O0

From 1:46 to 2:35 of that "Losing My Mind" parody, I had quite a bit of content about Dame Edna in the lyrics, with no subtlety about it.   Dame Edna's "All About Me" was the last show at the old Henry Miller Theater before it became the Sondheim.





Very funny, Freddie!

Jen came by and picked up the week's mail. I was very happy to see her; I miss her and Ann when they're away. Ann's been dealing with a 90 year-old dying mother, who's taking her time to do it, in Boston since early December, and I don't know when she'll be back.

~~~Vibes of All Kinds for Ann's Mom!!~~~

Facebook has finally returned  :)  I needed to look some information up this morning for something I am working on for my high school class.

What concerned/scared-me-a-little with the outage was that someone may have taken over MY account as someone had done to DR JRand last week.

Glad it returned.

Glad it returned.

When I opened FB on my tablet this morning and saw I needed to sign in I decided to wait until I was up and at my computer.  I immediately checked my phone to see if I had a text from Facebook with a code to verify it was me signing in.

I was relieved not to see a text.

Once up and at my computer I attempted to sign in.

I then asked Keith to confirm my new password.  After doing so he went online for me and found that FB was down.
