I’m ushering for the nonunion tour of Wizard of Oz. Webber-Rice tunes that have no reason to exist alongside the great Harburg-Arlen tunes.

One doesn't wish bad fortune arbitrarily, but I wish it wholeheartedly to anyone who steals someone's cc information and uses it.  VERY bad fortune, always and forever, like Cats.

I'm up - I did manage to get eight hours of sleep, but then had to get in the motor car and do stuff that needed doing.  No packages, but several important envelopes arrived all at once, so that was great and I did some banking and then had a Cobb salad for the meal o' the day.

Annabelle's nose is clogged again this morning so she won't eat. I'm quite frustrated because I hate torturing her, and I have no money at the moment for a vet.  Thanks to that damned email issue last week that wiped out my last bit of funds, I'm out of money until Social Security lands eight days from now.

~~~Continued Financial Vibes for Larry!!~~~

Thank you, DR George!  In this afternoon's post I received a check from Dublin's RTE Orchestra for €200.00/  My bank tells me it may take six weeks to get the money converted to dollars.

Mostly...I have to confess that I do like "Red Shoe Blues" (obvious cuts in the video notwithstanding).

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

I remember this number from The Act as if it was yesterday, especially Roger Minami, the dancer.  Wonder what happened to him - he is genius in this number.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NVwaK_sjGE

Well, according to the bio in his IMDb listing, he's become a painter:
Quote
....In 1996, Minami decided to give up the hectic pace of show business and took up residence in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he has embarked on his third career... painter.

With homes in Santa Monica, California, Vancouver, and Puerto Vallarta, he has a varied source of inspiration for his work. His paintings reflect the color of Mexico combined with the flair of show business and has provided yet another creative outlet for this multi-talented man.

Well, it's time for me to head home by way of my sister's house.  She's got some Girl Scout cookies that she doesn't want, so I'll take them.

Be back later.

Thank you all for the vibes. A search indicated that my credit card was charged to a crowdfunding organization in India. The crowdfunding part came as a surprise.

Yes, the parents who were trying to help their kids have damaged their kids' reputations instead.

I had to file an internal gripe today. Apparently my employer advertises on Tucker Carlson’s show. And we’re supposed to be promoting how diverse we are!

Good for you.

Oh, I should mention that I've been watching MANHUNT, a British police drama starring Doc Martin himself, Martin Clunes, on Acorn TV. It's quite riveting.

I agree with all the cartoons mentioned and would add Mighty Mouse and Heckle and Jeckle.  And even they aren't cartoons, I also add Beany and Cecil.
