Richard Buckley, conductor of Austin Opera, has been fired following accusations of sexual misconduct. Richard is the son of Emerson Buckley, conductor on THE CRUCIBLE recording.
(I thought I remembered knowing Richard slightly in high school, but it wasn't him, it was his brother Bob who played Harold Hill there when I was playing my first Music Man.)
The 50th Reunion Co-ordinator asked me to make a slide show of the deceased members of our class.....she sent me a list.
It's one thing to look at a list, and it is another thing to look at the faces from the yearbook....some I knew had passed, others I had no idea.
And of course, we came close to losing another one last spring.....that's for sure.
Then she asked me to do a class video for the Alumni Banquet that's being held the night after the reunion....and by the way to narrate it live! So I will be a star on that night.....
I have three-quarters of a chocolate cake to take to my neighbors tonight. It's a good thing I'll be out all day, or else it would be a half. Or less.
Someone is supposed to email me and let me know what is supposed to be in the video, I suppose....otherwise the class of '68 is going to have a video unlike any other class.
:D
Summer in Iceland, Jane? Sounds like a lost Vernon Duke song.
LOL Thanks DR FJL.
DR GINNY have you opened any of the drawers in your card catalog in your duties as yet?

Oh, yes, DR JRand! One is full of washi tape, which I use quite often. And 2 others have all my embroidery floss and I was pulling colors for a little project the other night. Since I haven't yet labeled the drawers for content, it's kind of like playing the old game show Concentration to remember what's in which drawer.
I have awakened with a fuzzy throat, same as on Dec. 26. I do hope this clears up and I don't end up sick again.
Knee vibes for DR TCB.
Show vibes for DR GEORGE.
Here's to a great sitzprobe, DR Elmore. Looking forward to a full report.
I have never met Andrew Feinberg, but after reading his comments on a thread about the WSS remake in answer to some of MR BK's comments - I can safely say he is an idiot.
His photos confirm my diagnosis....his arguments are merde....and he never shuts up.
I did read ONE thing on FaceBook that I agree with.....
What is the difference between genius and stupid? Genius has its limits.
I'm up, I'm up - finally nine hours of sleep.
Groundhog day always confuses me. So 6 more weeks of winter is supposed to be bad? I would be very happy with only 6 more weeks of winter. Although truthfully I am so sick of it. Yesterday was warm (over 0C/32F) and today is freezing (-20something C). How is that possible from one day to the next?

DR JANE the current JEOPARDY champ is did a study group in Iceland and is traveling to study the Vikings with his winnings....for some reason.
The sitzprobe was a lot of fun. I was very happy with my work and Joshie's. He's exhausted but he did absolutely amazing work in too little time. I think the show will be a lot of fun.
I came home to two angry kitties who wanted their dinner, since it was nearly two hours past their dinner time. Quiet little Thatch was the most vocal.

The last time I had jury duty, Kerry had it too. We met for lunch that day.

I am open to suggestions for books that make you laugh. I do not want to suggest anything I have read.

The clip I saw of Carolee Carmello doing Hey, Look Me Over was great. I wish the sound on Douglas Sills singing Movies Were Movies had been better.
DR JANE that is exactly what/where he is studying. He was defeated tonight, but he said yesterday he already had enough money for the planned schooling.

Someone today suggested Maria Sempler's "Where'd You Go, Bernadette" as a humorous book. I haven't read it.
I like Cathie Pelletier a lot for just sustained off-the-wall humor.
I have no energy left. I'm going to bed.
Knee vibes for DR TCB!

He is, also, from Sea-Tac, Washington.
I just finished reading "Future Home of the Living God" and do not recommend this book.
Tom did you drink enough to stay hydrated?
