DR CHAS SMITH - I feel your pain.  Last year we couldn't get firm answers on two of our shows....both of which were eventually denied....so half of our season was a surprise.

[Jrand74]

I didn't have an ice cube to put in the cup for the pair of keets this morning.  So I used some crushed ice.

They are both enjoying it and commenting on it incessantly - of course it will only last about ten minutes.

[Jrand74]

For some reason my old Facebook page showed up on the PCPH page where my ID is different.  Here's the message:

The last few years have taught me that when it is our time to leave this body no one can stop it. We have one life to live. The material things we invest in are left behind only to be discarded. Memories are important to me. I'm going to start a "reunion of friends and family".
The idea is to see who reads a post without a picture. If no one reads my post, this will be a very short experiment. But if you are reading this message, make a comment using a single word about how we met. Please, don't just view without leaving a word. You'll ruin all the fun and reminiscing.

Kitty cleanup is over and I need to make the bed.

I got fooled on that one.  I hadn't noticed the spelling of the screen name.

The ice cubes vs. crushed ice debate at work - did you think to video their comments? These days, that could go viral on Tik-Tok or YouTube.

Bruce, congratulations on getting the BEST pianist replacement for the holiday show!

Nice poster DR George.

[Jane]

From DR George:

It's interesting...there's nothing in our production, either in the script or sound or action, that indicates that it's raining, but the poster shows the man in rain.  Weird.

[Jane]

You know it's going to be a long day when you give up trying to get back to sleep before the bars close.

Groan.

A bit of news that I'm delinquent on passing on to you fine people:

Remember Once Upon a Mattress, and how that went to a little place we like to call Broadway, so our rights were yanked? Do you also remember The World According to Snoopy, our replacement for Mattress? Did I ever tell you that we couldn't cast the menfolk, so the theeder had to make a run on yet another show? No, I believe I did not.

Well, here it is:

The November-December show is now Winter Wonderettes, the holiday-themed followup to The Marvelous Wonderettes. And yes, it is cast, thank the goddesses. We had our first music rehearsal last night...exactly one (1) (count 'em) day after the materials arrived, so everyone - EVERYONE, including Yrs Truly - was sightreading. Today I'll get to actually learn some of it so as to pound notes with a wee bit more confidence tonight.

That's Winter Wonderettes. Remember, you read it here first.

Vibes you have a great show!

With that reaction I suspect you will be using crushed ice more often.

This, or something similar, has been going around on FB for a long while now. I never play these games.

I'm laughing, however, it is true a video could go viral.

Walking with a Winter Wonderette?

I worked 4.5 hours so far. Am on lunch break. The lines are enormous.

Catchy! 

Could that have been intentional?

Is your neck problem handling the work OK?

Hello

[vixmom]

Where are you working John?

[vixmom]

I've never seen Rosemary's Baby

[vixmom]

Or the prequel

I am shocked that DR VIXMOM has never seen Rosemary's Baby.

SHOCKED I TELL YOU.

[MichaelG]

This weekend was busy. We had our first of two Voices of Silicon Valley concerts on Saturday and it went well. The program included some really hard pieces by Peter Shin and Arnold Schoenberg, as well as music from Gladiator and the video games Portal II and Genshin Impact.

[MichaelG]

Yesterday we made our first visit to a new jazz club that opened near us, rather than having to drive up to San Francisco or Oakland, or down to Santa Cruz. We saw Randy Brecker playing with Tod Dickow and Charged Particles in music of Michael Brecker.

[MichaelG]

The drummer of Charged Particles was in the High School Symphonic Band with me when we were at Interlochen, and later we played together in the MIT Symphony Orchestra when he was a ringer from Harvard. This is the first time I'd seen him since college. We had a nice chat before the gig.

[MichaelG]

I haven't seen Rosemary's Baby either.
