Looking at this from the GYPSY casting breakdown, unless I'm misunderstanding

[LOUISE] 18+ to play Teens through 20s. Black.
[JUNE] 18+ to play Teens through 20s. Biracial; her mother is Black and her father is White.


I guess in this version, Louise and June don't necessarily have the same father?

Monday is here.  We are expecting thunderstorms at some point during the day.  Oh, joy!



It's been raining off and on a little bit here today, but no thunderstorms in the forecast.

There are many, many...MANY things I need to do around the house.

So much time and so little gets done.  THAT is retirement, I guess.

I am woefully behind on cataloguing my movie and music collections (Blu-rays and CDs, that is).  This is a task I must get to soon as it is critical for keeping track of what I have as well as what I wish to let go.

Collecting is a feverish passion until you get to a point where you cannot possibly keep up with it!  I won't throw anything away, but may give some of it away at some point. 


I agree with your feelings on collecting.  Fortunately, I haven't reached the "point where you cannot possibly keep up with it" phase. ;)

Is Embarrass anywhere near Intercourse or Blue Ball, PA?


They're not close at all to Dildo, Newfoundland, though. ;D

Most of our pasta cooking comes from recipes in either Marcella Hazan's cookbooks or one by her son Guiliano. She doesn't include a cacio e pepe recipe, so that comes from a David Kinch cookbook. There was also a good YouTube video that got me close before Kinch's more precise quantities helped get me there.

I once assisted Guiliano in a cooking class back in Sarasota.

Awesome! Did you used to live in Sarasota? Did you get to meet Marcella when she was there? My Dad has been in Sarasota for a long time and my stepmother got to meet Marcella and Guiliano there.

I have not been sitting here like so much fish all afternoon.  We went to the library, the framer’s, Target, and Panera.  When we got home I promptly zonked out in my chair for an hour.  Guess in have some stamina to regain.

I think it is safe to say that "Bravo" was an excellent Wordle yesterday for Keith to get it in two.

Wow!  Congrats to Keith!

That is one HELL of a story about Goodspeed, DR Elmore!

Indeed.

It's a terrible show! There are a couple of good songs, but the book is all over the place, there's only one killing which is bad for a thriller, and the leading lady stretches credulity to the point where it screams. I also cringe every time Gwen Verdon speaks because her British accent is pathetic
I cannot believe all the Tonys it won. I think the only atmosphere was in Reuben Ter-Arutinian's gothic, spooky sets.

The composer, Alber Hague, came to the show and tod me he loved my orchestration. I think he was the only one!

Albert Hague’s immortality came from The Grinch TV score, not Redhead.

For me, it was the original movie and TV show Fame. :)

I brought a jar of “wild capers” back from Kos. Want to make puttanesca with those a plenty of anchovies.

What time should we come over?

No cooking until the pain passes.
