I just polished up my opera glasses for the first time in years. I might just take them, even though we'll already be in the sweet spot (grand tier center).

It sure is a different experience looking through and fine-tuning something like this, now that I have two eyes with equal vision. I mean, they actually work. Imagine!

Awful, not waffle.

More on the Sondheim auction


Fascinating!  This adds to what BK seemed to notice, about what surprising amounts of disposable cash the avid Sondheim fans seem to have!

So glad to read that some of our Hainsies and Kimlets are looking forward to wonderful theatrical adventures in NYC today.

In that vein of free spending for everything Sondheim,

Here's one in my Shameless Shilling for YouTube Views. :)

This was from Feb. 2020, with the perspective of sensing a "Premium Decade" coming for the 2020s:

"Another Hundred Millionaires Got Off of Their Phones"-
Parody of "Another Hundred People" from "Company"

I'm certainly not clairvoyant, so this trend must have been in the so-called geist even back in Feb. 2020 as a feeling for what was coming, and we see now was there even for Sondheim shows.

And it looks like the open wallets are there for the auction too.

DR ChasSmith, I do not know what Joshie is up to this weekend. He may be in DC with Bye Bye Birdie.

Last night, Amazon left four packages at my door. Amazon sent me an email stating that four of my orders had been delivered. Actually, three of my orders were delivered. The fourth package was a delivery for my neighbor Judy. So, where the fat hell is my fourth order?

And a good morning from George’s old college town of Bellingham where I schlepped the fam to surprise the wife with a spa treatment so she just left for that, and the Little Rodzes are still asleep. We shall enjoy the indoor pool of this highway hotel while Mrs R gets some relaxation over in Fairhaven.

When she returns it will be a Costco run, which I hope doesn’t undo the relaxation!

Saturday morning greetings!  Our nasty summer weather continues and I’m hibernating to avoid the heat and humidity.  I skipped 2 social events yesterday because they each had outdoor components that didn’t appeal to me.

Sounds like a good idea to stay inside!

I have milopita, a kind of Greek apple pie-cake, in the oven. It looked good going in. Hopefully it’ll be better after baking.

The problem could be the apples I had on hand: Juici. There might be too much liquid in them.
