It is a shame you didn't enjoy it more.

I am shocked by the jewelry story.

It's like a stupid criminal story, if she was unethical enough to actually fix the raffle she should have been smart enough to act surprised (if delighted) when the president won rather then proudly announcing her criminal activity

I know. Items are donated to help raise funds, not to be given as gifts.

I think we are very lucky that, on the whole, our classmates have grown up.

Exactly DR JEANNE that's what happened at my 10th reunion as well...no one talked to anyone they hadn't talked to in school....too soon.

We are all friendly at our reunions, even if we didn't know each other back then.

I've often chuckled at women who, long out of high school, still wear their make-up and sometimes their hair as they did in high school, as if they were frozen in time. Yes, they seem to think of high school as their glory days.

Funny you see it that way. I know too many people who just like their hair best that way.

Laura I am very happy to hear you are not Lizzie Borden. I am sure your family is delighted as well

That was the best quote from the trial, Vixmom.

John G, when is Cecil's surgery?

He meets with the surgeon on Tuesday. Hopefully it will be set for soon. His doctor told him that if this surgeon couldn't schedule it quickly, then he had another surgeon to see. The bottom line is that his personal physician wants the operation ASAP.

Very scary.

I'm watching the season finale of "Star Trek Discovery" and Clint Howard is on it. It's a minor role (essentially a cameo), but it's kinda cool that he's on this when he was also on the original series as a child.

Spring has finally arrived. At least for 3 days we will have warm weather and sunshine! At least it looks like there will be no more snow.

Happy news

Listening to an opera - very late to the party with this composer and shame on me, but this is a stunning work with stunning music: Carlisle Flyod - Susannah. I also have Of Mice and Men by him, and coming are Cold Sassy Tree and Willie Stark. I'm wondering if he wrote just for the opera stage or if he did orchestral music.

When I was going to Western Washington University, Heidi Grant Murphy (then just Heidi Lynn Grant), who had graduated from Western a couple of years earlier (her last year was my first year and we were in concert choir together that one year) came back and gave a recital. Among her selections were two arias from Susannah: "Ain't It a Pretty Night" and "The Trees on the Mountains Are Cold and Bare." She was fantastic, even then, and the songs were beautiful.

Ain't It a Pretty Night is stunning. This, for me, is right up there with Robert Ward's The Crucible, and much better than the Douglas Moore operas I've heard (and issued). I've got a live recording from 1962 on its way - I'm not thrilled with the sound of the Virgin Records Susannah - it's dull and has no sparkle and it should. I could probably take it and do what we did with The Crucible, but that won't be happening.

Yes, BK, that review is from me. I hope it is okay. I don’t write very well.

Hi, Tom.

They are saying that by Thursday we may hit 80 degrees for the first time this year.

Condolences to Jrand. (And that is just for the reunion.) Seriously, my condolences.
