That's great, Singdaw!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

I love most of James Ivory's films with Ismail Merchant. There's a documentary about the couple coming out.

They lived across the river from me in upstate New York, but they never invited me to dinner.

I have done nothing today and this evening but deal with the schedule change, which is finally set. In the midst of that, we had another kid drop out of the show, which is so irritating. So, we had to find a replacement - after a few tries, i found someone good. That's two parents who committed to the show, but who then thought it fine to just shine us on.

Speaking of Gs, the other night I briefly saw Matthew G’s name up top. Don’t know if he ever posted.

Kids have swim classes in the evening, and it’s taken a lot out of me somehow.
