Maybe that is the difference, George. Is it worth finishing?

Even though I didn't love it, I did want to see how it ended. It wasn't a long season, so it wasn't a great time commitment.
And John Barrowman is always nice to look at.

I will be E&T today. It's off to the big city and meeting up with a few cinema friends for some 3-D hi-jinx at MoMA. Should be great fun, but it will be a long day.
And the word of the day is: SHIVAREE!
DR ELMORE - I have heard that everything is beautiful at the ballet.
Does any DR know anything about Apple's new proposed music streaming service? Does it really offer access to every single iTunes track for $9.99 per month?

Learned this morning of the death of Clem Burton, who was our wedding organist. He also put up with having me in the choir for several years, which was the price he had to pay to have Richard's voice. I learned more from him in 3 or 4 years than I had in my entire K-12 music education experience and I will always treasure that experience. Rest in peace, good and faithful servant.
I listened this morning to the new GOLDEN APPLE recording. It's much better than the first performance bootleg I had heard and a lot of performance glitches in lyrics are repaired. The cast shows more personality on the recording, but I think everyone - even the ones I'd liked on the bootleg - aren't quite good enough, Some are close, but . . .
My biggest problems are choices and changes the conductor made. Why should he care what the composer wished?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Financial and insurance vibes for DR cillaliz! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I fell over when you told us the possible costs for rabies treatments!
KUDOS to our HHW BATWOMAN, DR Cillaliz!
That must have been terrifying! A bat got into my bedroom when I was living in San Diego
County. I tried to get it to leave, but it wasn't feeling very cooperative. I called a friend to help. It was a very stressful experience. You were very brave and resourceful to use a butterfly net.
Vibes for stress reduction and also for the bills! Sheesh!

Looking at the volunteer sign-up website, they have one concessionaire, but it's not difficult for one person to handle concessions at SPSCC. However, they only have two ushers signed up, when they want eight! I e-mailed the volunteer coordinator that I could do either concessions or ushering at either venue. Now, I'm just waiting to hear back where I am wanted...but I need to get ready.
Have a good rest of the day, all!
Savoir Faire.
Savoir Faire.
Savoir Faire is everywhere!
At least, so I've heard.
Speaking of noise, there was a manila envelope taped onto the Noisy Neighbors' door yesterday, with the apartment manager's handwriting on it. Eviction papers, I'm hoping.
Cindy Williams new memoir Shirley, I Jest!: A Storied Life is coming out.
I'll buy it for the Bruce Kimmel chapters
That's a disappointment
Just learned that today is also Basil Rathbone's birthday. My favorite Sherlock Holmes was born 123 years ago in South Africa and died in 1967 in NYC, believe it or not.

DR Jeanne, I forgot to update my neighbor situation. Last weekend, the guy upstairs had a bunch of his (and or her) friends over. They always get rowdy. Certainly not a cocktail hour crowd. You may recall that I contemplated calling the sheriff, but cooled my heels and instead wrote (yet another) email letter to the apartment manager. That seems to have been more effective. One of the front office women who is on my side told me that she had a thorough conversation with NN who claimed that the body slams/collapses I heard (on my ceiling) were not drunks falling over but a "vigorous" video game session. Perhaps, but he's been put on notice and she told me that he was "concerned". I will reserve verdict until and if there's a next time. He and his GF like to drink, and some of the familiar faces that gather there with them look not like a cocktail crowd but a typical college let's-get-F'd Up-crowd. The ones who look a bit more mature (in action, not age) always leave early before things do go out of control. If only the NN had that kind of sense.
After a long talk with a very good friend, she advised me to look at this as a signal from the universe/higher powers that I should get on with my surgery, get well, and then look for greener pastures to make a new home, as in a way I will be starting a new phase. Thinking this way has been helpful to me.
That's a disappointment
As you know, Cindy plays a prominent role in my book. I'm reduced to one line in hers. I'd say one of us is a real writer and knows storytelling, and one doesn't. I don't know how you reduce someone you've known for fifty years, have worked with repeatedly, had romance with, and been through a lot with, the guy you always turned to when the TV show was bugging you, and reduce that person to one single line in a book about your life. I'm not the only one, however.

Wouldn't that be nice! :)

I'm about to play a wonderful tune on my 30 year young electric guitar, sorta like a little gig but the kiddy giddy version, I guess. The kids can feel free to jam if they want. Like they can play a wee bit of guitar too. I consider myself to be a guitar god.
I nicknamed myself Goddes Guitar for when we go out for a gig or two. Usually instead of having the guitar singing or just a singing guy we make the drummer sing. It never works out so I end up having to sing it, so guess who the default singer is?
Just a curious question, are/were any of you in a band at one point of time.

I hope we have more tv viewing options when we change hotels. It is strange how the same shows play over and over and over and over again.
