I've also got two sets of auditions coming up. One is next weekend, for a production of "Addams Family", and the other is three days in April for the local outdoor summer theater that's doing "Sound of Music", "Edwin Drood", and "In the Heights". These should result in an interesting selection of songs being brought in.

I read on Theatermania that "In the heights" was the musical that Mayor Pete named when asked what was his favorite musical.

(Twelfth Night was his favorite play.)

Hello, everyone.

Good news from DR Ginny!

So glad you're seeing improvement and able to be out and about more. Do you feel that the exercises did the trick? I believe you had said that the boot didn't seem to help much.

Vibes for continued improvement!

The Miss Fisher movie will play at the Cinema Village next Friday, so I will need to plan my itinerary to make the trip downtown.

Lucky you! I'll be streaming it.

Well I got up at 7 showered, washed my hair, blew it dry and dressed and made it to my dentist appointment by 7

Vixmom is a real whiz in the morning. She did all that in no time.

Then I stopped st the local Walgreens and bought the last two packages of Sambucol dissolving tablets and two zinc am nose sprays

I'm glad there was still some available. I find that most of these things are sold out by now. Maybe Walgreen's is making an extra effort to keep them on the shelves.

DR JOHN G I saw a lovely play at the Humana Festival one year called LLOYD'S PRAYER.....

And another one that same season that was awful.....about the carving of Mt Rushmore using kitchen chairs as the mountain......

I just watched downsizing with Matt Damon. I hadn't read too much about it - just assumed I knew what it was about.....but it wasn't about that....I liked it.

The dentist grabbed the chart and said “ah yes...I see the notes that. This was a temporary fuxabd the tooth needed a root canal and crown...it should have been dines years ago...you got five years out of that temporary well done!”

This was the reaction I was expecting, but withou the praise.

And two over easy eggs with some Fox
Lint and a slice of Muenster melted on it for me

Fox lint? As in little tuffs of hair from a fox? And I thought that DR John G ate exotic food!

The one weird aspect of the AirBnB I stayed at is that the owners seem to be millennials, who have made top sheets obsolete. The bed just had a comforter and a fitted sheet.

I was about to ask if the AirBnb is in Albany (near Berkeley), as some friends of mine have one there, but they are definitely NOT millennials!

At a Westin in Tampa, they said any towels you leave on the bathroom floor will be replaced, any not on the floor will not be replaced. But no points incentive.,

I've always felt that changing the sheets and towels every night is a bit silly. On one cruise we asked them to only replace the dirty towels (on the floor), but they replaced everything every time. I'm pleased to see them giving customers options and rewards.

Okay, this is unbelievable.

Last night it was announced that one employee of Danbury Hospital (who also works in Norwalk hospital) was exposed. He or she lives over in NY state. I have no idea whether that person is even sick. But it has apparently sent this region into a tailspin, because look what Nathan just found at BJ's in the TP & PT aisle.

That is indeed an OMG!

The panic shopping is actually quite good for business at the large warehouse stores. Costco reported that their sales were up over 12% last month over the same time period a year ago, and they attribute 3% of it to the coronavirus. Of course, sales will slow once the pandemic is over as people will be using all the stuff they stockpiled.

I'm up, I'm up - nine hours of sleep, did stuff, answered stuff, picked up a package but no important envelope, so I've sent an e-mail about that.

Went to Ralph's and got a huge crab leg thing - expensive but lots of meat and almost zero calories. Also got shrimp. Lines were reasonable, but certain types were buying only two things had had carts loaded with them - toilet paper and water. Plenty available.

Beginning with eating an entire orange I have eaten too many foods today that only make me sick.

Fortunately I know it will pass and it is my own fault.

I have a newbie iTunes question, for BK or DR Elmore or whoever is good at this.

BK, for instance, loads CDs into iTunes (and probably has the world’s largest library). Is all of this music local and playable only on the Mac, or is it in the “cloud” and accessible via iPhone or iPad?

Also, when loading new music, do you keep it in its original format, let it convert to mp3 or some other compressed format, or what? I’m trying to imagine the storage space involved.

bk · « **Reply #144 on:** March 07, 2020, 06:34:46 PM »

I'm not sure about the cloud thing and I should probably check on the phone to see what's what. I used to load in everything as AIFFs but they take up way too much space on the computer, so I do the higher-quality mp3s, which take up not much at all and sound fine to me.

Home after a nice dinner with some of the weirdest ice cream that I've yet tasted: pink peppercorn-fennel. Didn't taste fennel. Just tasted an odd caramelization of something that just didn't work.
