Well, you've read the notes, the notes were newly beautified, and now it is time for you to post until the newly beautified cows come home.

And the word of the day is: GROUNDBREAKING!

And now - Dino at the piano.

Saturday morning greetings! I’m up early to join my sister and niece in an all-day virtual crafty event. Usually we’re in 3 different states, but today they’re together at my sister’s home in Michigan. I, alas, am still in Ohio.
-
Good morning, all!
-
I slept quite poorly. Too many pains did me in; the cats behaved well.
-
Today I must don my deerstalker, did out my magnifying glass, and solve a few mysteries about the apartment. The first one: where are my headphones?
-
One advantage of Trump's being dumber than a box of rocks is that he cannot keep his mouth shut. Yesterday at an event, he told the crowd, “Four more years, you know what? It’ll be fixed, it’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore.”
I'm hoping health or an assassin wipes this wannabe dictator out very soon because I fear the election may be already rigged by the GOP and SCOTUS in his favor.

So sorry about what your theater company is going through, George! Hoping that everything works out.

This morning I am venturing out for a meeting with someone about her students' voice recital next month. I've played two of these now, and they've turned out to be more fun than I originally thought.
-
I wish the spellcheck (or autocorrect or whatever is on my system) would stop checking whether I meant "Critter" as an alternative when I start typing "Kritzer" - it feels most unseemly somehow.
-
But if I type "Kritzerland" it accepts it.
-
Still, having spellcheck (or autocorrect or whatever is on my system) is better overall than not having it.
-
I was originally going to see the op'nin' night of GREASE at the outdoor theeder last night, but no. I was way better off sitting and watching TV. I could go tonight if I feel up to it, but we'll see.
-
Have a good time today, DR Ginny!

Nope. I had to turn it off on my phone. Last night, spellcheck on my tablet changed Cole Porter to Coke Porter three times.

Any excuse/reason not to see Grease is okay by me.

I have too many friends on the sick list at the moment. My friend Carol texted yesterday that tests have shown she had a heart attack recently.
-
She’s not hospitalized, but she will be doing a battery of tests.

George, I’m sorry about your theater company getting evicted.

This morning, I was awakened earlier than I thought I would be by a noise coming from the yard.
I looked at my clock and it was 7:15 a.m.
I got up and looked out my window, and I saw the stump removal crew already at work.
I know it's Saturday, and I knew they were coming today. But at 7 a.m.?? Yoiks!
There is a lot for them to do, alas, and it is going well two hours later, but more is yet to come.
-
Come Saturday morning, without any warning....
-
I thought today was going to be bright and sunny, but it's drearily overcast still.
-
George, I’m sorry about your theater company getting evicted.
Ditto.

LOL! I wonder if it would have been different with cole slaw?

And just like that, we're on page 2.

One advantage of Trump's being dumber than a box of rocks is that he cannot keep his mouth shut. Yesterday at an event, he told the crowd, “Four more years, you know what? It’ll be fixed, it’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore.”
I'm hoping health or an assassin wipes this wannabe dictator out very soon because I fear the election may be already rigged by the GOP and SCOTUS in his favor.
Yes, he was doing a call out to Christians. Yes, Christians are all going to vote for Trump in November so that they don't have to vote ever again! And I'm wondering, when is anyone going to ask him what that means, exactly, and follow up with the question of whether he believes he is immortal.
Ah, yes...the Trump Dynasty...DJ Jr., Eric and Barron. Our future "Dear Leaders"?
If ever anything would absolutely kill me, it would be that possibility.

The stump ain't a stump any more!
They didn't need to bring in dirt to fill the hole, either. There is a nice, smooth plot of land there now. A couple of more rainfalls, and I reckon grass will start growing.
I still plan to use that plot for planting bulbs for next year. A nice bit of color should enhance that corner of my yard.

Out of left field question: How solvent is your theatrical group? Is it possible you could find a small warehouse somewhere, buy it and set it up as a permanent faciity for you?

Thank you, again, for the inclusion.

We've got a little bit of money, but not an excessive amount. I think we now have more than we've had in a long time, so we probably have some options.

Incendiary performances?

No groaning at HHW.

Listening to Louis Armstrong’s live album, Louis in London. Just joyous. His take on The Bare Necessities is fun. And no whoops and hollers until the end of It’s a Wonderful World.
-
It’s a tonic while driving.
-
No groaning at HHW.
I wonder if it's implied in "I don't care for page seven" that "No groaning at HHW" has been been changed to "No groaning at HHW, unless it adds to the posting total."

Good news DR ELMORE. They are always in the last place you look.

Lovely day weather wise. No AC necessary.

I am enjoying my three days OFF from theeder.

I am happy to say that PCPH is completely solvent and in the $$$.
Owning our own facility is invaluable and a great asset.....certainly it also means that our donors over the last 51 years and the support of our ticket buyers has been invaluable....
And of course next June we are doing A CHRISTMAS CAROL......

I'm up, I'm up - ten hours of excellent sleep.

Photo thing has been fixed so upload away.

I'll be on my way to do some errands and whatnot shortly.

Probably should put some gas in the motor car.

Up from a nap.

Trying to be a little lazy before dancing tonight.

Competition next Saturday. Only dancing in the evening.

When I moved here in 1989, the place was rich in community and regional theeder. It still is, but we lost one excellent community group and - a greater loss for the region as a whole - a wonderful summer stock one, Candlewood Playhouse. A few years after I started going there, they were acquired by Gateway Something-or-other on Lawn Guyland, who then sold the jernt a few years after that, rather than make some necessary repairs to the property. Gateway, however, kept their own operation going on the Guyland, bless their little black hearts. A major supermarket sits on that hallowed ground, and there isn't a single time I pass through the major intersection there that I don't think of that playhouse.
As for the community group, they had residence in the large wing of a major church (a nice old one) for some years. They performed in the church's fellowship hall or whatever they called it. A few years later, the church decided they needed to reclaim the hall for their own use, and to have it available all the time, so that came to an end. The group at that point decided to disband rather than look for another home - which was sad, but the talent there remained active in the other regional theeders.
-
DR Elmore -
As your presentation was about to begin at the NYPL on that happy day, Rob Berman had just asked me where in Connecticut I live. When I said Danbury, he asked if I knew the Candlewood Playhouse, and we quickly touched base on that. Turns out, he had worked there at some point, and unfortunately we never finished that conversation, so I don't know what he did (MD? play? rehearse?) or in what years. Just fun stuff to know. I'm afraid I have no programs here, which stupifies me, I have no excuse for that.

From DR Singdaw:
I am still not able to post photos, but DR Jane seems to have managed to do so.
That was just an image I copied from the internet.
-
Thank for explaining that George.
-
DR George have you seen the clips of Celine by now? I would say she did very well.
-
From George:
Anyway, we were given two weeks' notice that we must vacate the space that we've had for about two years.
Is that short of a notice even legal? Nevermind, I see they could have done 24 hours :o >:(
-
Thank goodness you can return the acoustic ceiling tiles. How much will you lose on the return with shipping both ways?
-
FOUR!
-
From George:
There are some benefits to procrastination. ;D
;D
-
Again from George:
And if you hadn't been reading...I also have a tendency to procrastinate.

As far as I know, there are three local theater groups that have their own spaces...two own and one rents, but there really isn't any possibility of them being kicked out unless they run out of money, and that's not very likely to happen at all.

George left us hanging on page six at 11:23.
-
Not very sporting.
-
But he must have his jam.
-
I have jam but no more English muffins.
-
Where in tarnation IS everyone?
-
Certainly not here.
-
George is probably eating a burrito with mustard.
-
Does mustard play ANY part in Mexican food?
-
Do they still have mustard plasters?
-
George is purportedly here, but purportedly he's waiting for his jam to kick in.
-
Frankly, I'm waiting for in to kick his jam.
-
Page six is bugging me.
-
And so is the damn jam.
-
But the jam is the jam.
-
Jam spelled backwards is maj.
-
Just in case you were wondering.
-
I was wondering.
-
I was wandering.
-
And pondering.
-
And yet, we are still on page six.
-
I do not care for page seven.
-
And I do not care for the jam.
-
That's the reality.
-
Reality has its plusses.
-
And yet, I am non-plussed.
-
George is probably stuffing his face with crab cakes.
-
I haven't had crab cakes in ages and ages.
-
And that's a lot of ages.
-
If I had a rock for every age I'd have a rock of ages.
-
He really is waiting for his jam.
-
And he WILL be held responsible.
-
I do not care for his jam.
-
I think that is pretty clear.
-
Clarity has its plusses.
-
And so do I.
-
George has his jam.
-
And you know he's just sitting there like a lopsided herring waiting for one-minute to midnight.
-
Three minutes to midnight.
-
And no George.
-
Nope.
-
Never came back.
-
Isn't that just peachy keen.
-
Well, too late.
