And let's not forget my birthday twin DR JOSE who may show up here today.....of course he's MUCH OLDER than I am....or maybe he's younger....I forget....
We were good friends in my Drama Book Shop days, and he was a student at the American Academy. He used to apartment sit while I was away on jobs. Yjos must have been around 1991 or so. He married a nice lady, Tula, from Mongolia and they moved back there for several years and I would get occasional letters. When they moved back with their baby daughter, John and I met several times for pizza and catch-ups. I met Tula and the baby who must be twenty now, when they took her to see Beauty and The Beast on Broadway.
My Christmas card that year came back as undeliverable sonce they no longer lived there, and for several years I heard nothing from John. I finally used an online search service and tracked him down through his grandmother. The marriage had ended and he was staying with his dad on New Jersey. He was writing poetry and delivering pizza for Domino's. We met in the East 30s for dinner, and I got the whole story of the breakup and the current situation, He and his dad were not getting along, and John asked if he could move in. I turned him down. Then a long period of silence followed. I tried to call him and his cell number was no longer good. I googled his name and found the story. That was in 2015 or 2016.

Last we saw the captain he was working on a, once again, new direction. This will be our second change due to the unusually cold summer.
A favorite bit:

I had to play a knight today while ushering for the theater's open house. Knight of the woeful spectacles.
Mass shooting in Jacksonville, Florida this afternoon.

I was there to push Spamelot. Under four layers of heavy fabric, I renamed myself Dam'it's Hot.
Has anybody here seen the TV ads for the new USA series, THE PURGE?
The premise, as I understand it, is that, for one day a year, people can commit any crime they want (e.g. robbery, murder) without consequences.
Maybe I'm just too old to understand, but I think that is the dumbest, most irresponsible premise for a TV series, or even a movie, that I've ever seen. I can't imagine who would "green light" such a project.
There are so many sick people out there (e.g. today in Jacksonville, FL), and a show like this will certainly give them ideas.
Well, I'd better get my butt outta bed and get myself ready to meet my uncle! I have a few things to do before I go to my parents' house and I've dilly-dallied enough.
Be back later!
My German is very limited.
George, Tuesday is supposed to be the smokiest day of the week, especially in Seattle.
Has your half-uncle and family been in the U.S. for a while?
We even had a few sprinkles of rain.

They arrived in L.A. last week, or maybe the week before that, and drove from there up to here. They're leaving on Wednesday, and they're going back down to fly back out from L.A., but the route they take is up in the air depending on where they'd like to go before they leave. I think Michael mentioned Death Valley. :o

I think I would prefer Disneyland, or maybe Las Vegas.
