Mornings involving Access-a-Ride angst are fraught and this morning has begun on a high noter. First, Annabelle would not eat breakfast.

Then Stella managed to get one of her front paws stuck in a roach glue trap. That meant catching her, removing the trazp, and washing the paw, all of which were ordeals. I am rather concerned that I will return and find hewr dead or very sick with vomit to clean up everywhere.

I am no fan of the National Theatre production of Oklahoma! with Hugh Jackman. Trevor Nunn does not do musicals well and Susan Stroman is not Agnes deMille. Give me the movie instead.

I was very fortunate to see two producfions in which Richard Rodgers was involved, the 1969 Lincoln Center production with Bruce Yarnell, Lee Beery, Leroy Reams, April Shawhan, Margaret Hamilton, and Spiro Malas (I think); the 1979 production at the Palace Theatre, which I saw with DR Ginny  in 1980.

Any of BK’s books.

The sci fi novel The Man Who Folded Himself by David Gerrold. With the advent of computer cgi, one actor can play all the parts. Young, old, male and female and even make love as two separate characters.

Title: Re: PART TWO OF THE LOVELY MIRACLE
Post by: elmore3003 on October 25, 2022, 06:50:59 AM
I stepped outside onto the sidewalk, and there was no sign of a car or driver waiting, so I called the number for the driver, who sounded Chinese or Japanese ands barely spoke English. I asked where he was and he said At The Corner. I said which corner, and all he did was repeat The Corner over and over. I called Access-a-Ride, and told them we had a problem. AAR insisted he was on location, and I rerpeated, No, I am on location.

Title: Re: PART TWO OF THE LOVELY MIRACLE
Post by: Ron Pulliam on October 25, 2022, 10:17:20 AM
What shall I do with today?

I have discovered a mission:  I am trying to subscribe to a health care plan for the new year.

Since retirement, I have been covered only for prescriptions. 

As a military retiree, I have VA medical coverage. My VA doctor is in Aiken SC (25 miles away) and a VA hospital is in Augusta GA (27 miles away). 

My United Health Care prescription coverage was taken out at retirement to cover initial costs I might incur before hooking up with local VA.  For five years, it has been mostly a waste, but my medical benefit from County of Alameda has covered the cost.  The County retirement plan affords me a generous allowance for medical coverage, and I have stupidly not been using it.  I only get reimbursed for what gets used, so I need to maximize usage.

I want to be able to go to non-VA hospitals.  I have been very impressed with my local VA care, but I would rather not be hospitalized there.  I want coverage that will pay for ambulance service to a hospital.  Right now, all would be out of pocket. 

That is my goal.  We are in the enrollment period right now.  My provider says I can enroll online in about 15 minutes, or I can call and take an hour or more.

I have been online for nearly two hours and still cannot make heads or tails of what I see, so I am now waiting for someone to call me to explain what it is I am looking at.

Such is life in very rural South Carolina.

Dip me and fry me!!!

After FOUR HOURS on the phone trying to make sense of the medical options offered me, the licensed advisor I was talking with asked me what more I needed than what I am already covered for.

I told her I was only covered for prescriptions.

She said, NO, I am also covered for AARP Plan F.

What, I asked, is that?

She asked if I didn't have a card for Plan F.  I told her no.

She then told me Plan F covers every single thing I was looking for and pays 100%.  And, she said I've been covered since September 2017!!!

Who KNEW????  I didn't! 

She connected me with AARP and requested they send me a card and details on what Plan F covers.

And that, as they say, is THAT!

I believe Darrell Brooks is on the phone with outside people advising him on his sovereign citizen BS, as he's now spouting new stuff and someone has taught him how to pronounce "tacit" - And he's already disrupted the proceedings endlessly and has been removed from the courtroom. He is VILE and if you anagram vile you get EVIL.

We are waiting for the State to begin its closing arguments.  I do not know how Darrell Brooks plans to proceed since he is completely beyond understanding that his closing CANNOT include references to ANYTHING that was NOT disclosed in the testimony of the witnesses.

He seems to think that he can say any and all things he wishes....including his sovereign citizen BS that includes any flag with a yellow fringe is NOT a true U.S. Flag.....

Dip me and fry me!!!

After FOUR HOURS on the phone trying to make sense of the medical options offered me, the licensed advisor I was talking with asked me what more I needed than what I am already covered for.

I told her I was only covered for prescriptions.

She said, NO, I am also covered for AARP Plan F.

What, I asked, is that?

She asked if I didn't have a card for Plan F.  I told her no.

She then told me Plan F covers every single thing I was looking for and pays 100%.  And, she said I've been covered since September 2017!!!

Who KNEW????  I didn't! 

She connected me with AARP and requested they send me a card and details on what Plan F covers.

And that, as they say, is THAT!

 :o  They should have sent you updated information every year.

He's literally trying to delay so he doesn't have to do his argument today, so he can get yet more inane advice from some idiot. The judge is now reading from the law - he doesn't care - he does NOT care. And enough is enough. At this point, she needs to end this right now. She's trying to do what she needs to do to avoid mistrial - but he will never stop. Ever. So she needs to tell him to close or he forfeits his right to close. It's time.

He'll be back in thirty minutes because the judge needs to make a record of something or other and you can bet he'll be yapping the entire time. Then the only other time she'll have to put up with him is IF the jury has any questions or wants to see any exhibits, but she's being properly tough now and will move things along.

Okay, let's try this - a super rare 10-inch privately pressed record boldly titled: PREVIEW. Then the following description: This is a recorded preview, made in a limited edition for private use only, of six of the songs from Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Cinderella," starring Julie Andrews. "Cinderella," a ninety-minute original with music by Richard Rodgers, book and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein, II, will be broadcast in color on Sunday, March 31, 1957, 8:00 to 9:30 P.M. EST. over the CBS Television Network. This recording, featuring Julie Andrews with Richard Rodgers at the piano, is not for sale, cannot be used for broadcast purposes, and is in every sense of the word a collector's item.

I've never seen any other copies of this in all my years of my collecting. Record seems to be in excellent shape. As rare as hen's teeth. If interested, PM me here.

Dip me and fry me!!!

After FOUR HOURS on the phone trying to make sense of the medical options offered me, the licensed advisor I was talking with asked me what more I needed than what I am already covered for.

I told her I was only covered for prescriptions.

She said, NO, I am also covered for AARP Plan F.

What, I asked, is that?

She asked if I didn't have a card for Plan F.  I told her no.

She then told me Plan F covers every single thing I was looking for and pays 100%.  And, she said I've been covered since September 2017!!!

Who KNEW????  I didn't! 

She connected me with AARP and requested they send me a card and details on what Plan F covers.

And that, as they say, is THAT!

 :o  They should have sent you updated information every year. 

At least!!  All I ever get from them are car insurance offers and requests for money to help seniors who are struggling.

I never really knew who Manville was until I saw here on Graham Norton's show a few weeks back.  And that despite her having been nominated for an Oscar some time back. Well, not so surprising since I don't put much store in Oscars any longer.

She was promoting "Mrs. Harris...." and the clip they showed looked delightful.

And now she's also starring in "Magpie Murders" on  PBS. 

ATTN DR ELMO:  I watched the second part yesterday, and I must say I'm hooked.

Filled up the motor car with gas. There was a little less than a quarter of a tank left - it cost eighty bucks to fill it. And thankfully, this station just up the street here is now the lowest priced station I've seen, with gas a full dollar less than other stations. First time putting gas in the car in about five or six weeks.

I am no fan of the National Theatre production of Oklahoma! with Hugh Jackman. Trevor Nunn does not do musicals well and Susan Stroman is not Agnes deMille. Give me the movie instead.

I was very fortunate to see two producfions in which Richard Rodgers was involved, the 1969 Lincoln Center production with Bruce Yarnell, Lee Beery, Leroy Reams, April Shawhan, Margaret Hamilton, and Spiro Malas (I think); the 1979 production at the Palace Theatre, which I saw with DR Ginny  in 1980.


Wow!  Ginny was in OKLAHOMA on Broadway in 1980!  And at The Palace.
