Apparently you can stream the London production of Angels in America (with Nathan Lane) if you subscribe to the National Theater for $129 per year.

Some people (a Gypsy reference ;) ) have been able to <ahem> procure <cough cough> downloaded video files of said production. ::)

One would also need to confirm that said files still exist on one's computer.

DR John G, I am so sorry about your friend. The onl;y positive thing I can think of is that Jimmy Carter was in hospice care for a year. I have no idea if that's any comfort for your friend. Or his friends and you.

I had a similar thought yesterday. Unfortunately, I don't think it's likely. Most of his organs are shutting down. But we will see.

That's so sad. :(

I just saw an Amazon product description that used the word mints instead of minutes. Really?

DR ChasSmith - modern technology may have progressed to the point where you can phone it in without leaving home!

My eyes have been dilated and I'm waiting for the doctor to show up.  It's kinda bright in this room.  I hope my eyes don't undilate too soon!

Yesterday I had my 3-month follow-up with the radiation oncologist.  She was pleased with my progress and OK’d a visit to my hairdresser.  Won’t Tina be surprised?

Congrats, Ginny!

Not surprised by this news:

Former first lady Michelle Obama is set to snub President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next Monday after skipping former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral last week — where she would have sat next to the one and future commander-in-chief.

BK - Yes, more of the lyrics features like your excellent ones in today's Notes.  It's even needed to remind people that parody is not just for a select few lyricists.

Warning:  Pointed kvetching in the next few paragraphs!
:)

It's starting to feel like Randy Rainbow and Forbidden Broadway are "owning" the theater-music parody world these days, and the rest of us are in many ways getting told why bother! 

I was routinely getting YouTube comments like "Forbidden Broadway already parodied that song, why would you do a video to that tune?"  Or "Randy Rainbow does the greatest Trump videos, why are you trying to compete with him by doing a Trump video?" 

Last year in February 2024, some very persistent theater attorney was taking direct aim at trying to cancel my parody lyrics in the Times comments, lyrics which the Times had not only allowed but actively encouraged uninterrupted for over 14 years - and the attempt to cancel those lyrics happened literally three days before Forbidden Broadway announced its then-intended Broadway production.  This theater lawyer even wrote me very convincing-looking emails under the name of an actual New York Times editor, except that it made no sense that any actual  New York Times editor would be sending emails that looked like legal arguments!)

Freddie, I have always enjoyed reading your parody lyrics in the comments.
I have missed them!

Actually I have been avoiding almost all news except for the fires.

I haven't talked to pug yet.  I might be able to see her today and chat.
