Hip hip hip hooray

Does this mean you’re getting the day off?

No it is the next line in the song

The hat has got his hat on,
 hip hip hip hooray ,
the sun has got his hat on
and he's coming out to play

“Annie,” “Get Your Gun,” …

Too hilarious. The kid (or AI) they got to write that obit was like, “Well, I’ve heard of ‘Annie.’ That’s famous…”



Indeed it was.

When I had a Mac mini, I didn’t have to get a Mac monitor. So I got a nice cheap one. And, I don’t know if this is still true, but Mac minis, their whole thing was you used to be able to add memory cards to them, so I did that, and that was pretty easy.

Maybe it was a reference to "Granny Get Your Gun" - a movie which preceded "Annie Get Your Gun" by a few years.

Just researching, it doesn’t look like they let you install new memory anymore.

I just went online at medicare.gov to review drug plans before the 12/7 deadline, and I'm horrified at what I'm seeing.

Horrified, not just at the drug costs at various pharmacies around town, but at the site itself. Every page talks about what my ESTIMATED drug costs will be in 2024. Yes, 2024. They also list pharmacies associated with supermarkets that CLOSED two months ago (the pharmacies might even have closed way earlier). And I don't think I've found a website yet where the location-and-distance finder technology has been anywhere near accurate.

ANYHOO...

To the extent that I can even understand any of it, it looks like I still won't make any change, but I do stand to save a few bucks by using the Costco pharmacy instead of the Walmart one I've been with, and it's much more convenient. I added it to my "list" of pharmacies on the website, and I guess I need to tell the doctors to send prescriptions there. Right? Who the hell knows? Guess I'll find out by doing it.

Maybe I didn't even post what "all of that work" was. Mostly shovel-plowing (I make a point of not doing much actual snow lifting)... all along the 500-foot driveway.

Okay, that was just a snow squall that only lasted for a couple of minutes. They always look like we're going to get a foot dumped on us, but they also blow away quickly and end up leaving nothing. There could be more of same through the afternoon, though.

I am happy to repor that my week of medical appointments is complete! 

My appointment yesterday was quick and easy, and I stopped at Sam's Club for a bit of shopping/re-stocking (of ice cream products, especially).

Congrats, Ron!  Today, I have a dental appointment.  Just a cleaning, so it should go well.

Back in the 1990s, I worked on a concert of Shinbone Alley at Town Hall. Lee Wilkoff played Archy and Marc Kudish was in the cast. I have no memory whgo p[layed Mehitabel. Her (agent's?) demands kiboshed BK's recording the show.

That's too bad about it not being recorded. :-\
