I don’t feel like rolling out of bed yet.

[Jane]

Those large new pillows have one disadvantage: after several hours on them, my leg muscles cramp terribly.

I didn't expect that.  Does the back one still feel comfortable if you remove the leg pillow?

Last night we watched Geraldine McEwan as Miss Marple in At Bertram's Hotel, which was quite wonderful.  It was sort of a Grand Hotel with a murder mystery, involving Nazis trying to escape to South Americam a Nazi hunter, a Jew trying to recover family art stolen by the Nazis, a painter and blackmail, polygamy, Louis Armstrong, a black singer, a reading of the will, a pretty young hotel chambermaid helping Miss Marple to inspect the crime and the handsome young detective attracted to her.  It was 90 minutes of fun.

The singer never did sing the bridge to "Anything Goes" correctly.

TOD:

Dancing. Maybe travel. Spending time with friends. I don’t miss much of the old normal, though, to be honest. I really don’t miss taking a hour each way to drive 15 miles to work.

And don't forget, June 6, that the Nazis and Fascists our fathers fought in 1944 are now running our government.  Vote the bastards out!

You had to make it political?

 

Truth hurts? Everything is political.

So sad.

 

Pathetic.  Here are some Trump supporters.

Do you have no respect for the people who gave their lives on June 6?

Not everything has to do with Trump.

All I said was:

Today is June 6th.

Please take a moment to remember D-DAY.

1944


 

Of course I do.  My comments have nothing to do with insulting those military heroes and you're a fool to suggest I do.  And a bigger fool for ignoring what's going on.

Then, you shouldn't have turned my original comment into a political statement.   

As the Baby Bear said to Mother Bear, you bore me.  You are one fool i will never suffer with any patience, nor will I suffer through another of your dreadful books.

Since we’re not likely to get Sondheim’s Exterminating Angel anytime soon, I’m watching Ades’s opera version of it, written for 15 principal voices and 3 sheep. Even the orchestral warmup is scripted—or the overture sounds like a warmup. And this afternoon, Bunuel’s original film.

I'm up, I'm up - seven hours of sleep and awaiting the long overdue arrival of she of the Evil Eye.

[bk]

I'll leave the posts, but I think people have made their points.

[bk]

So, who actually has watched the Facebook/YouTube Live tests? 

[ChasSmith]

Good morning, all.

[ChasSmith]

With ten minutes to spare.

I think that’s available till this evening? I’ve got it open on a tab. I’d really want to see the film again first, but now there’s no time for that.

Saw one live and one on tape.

I think that’s why I am watching them in reverse.

Watched the first one in summer reruns and the second one live.

His music's a hard go.  Powder Her Face is a perversely funny opera.

I don’t recall them broadcasting it on TV. If they did, I’m a complete idiot for letting it slip by me. I had also hoped to capture Rusalka, the “Vegas” Rigoletto, and Marnie, none of which made it to TV. Unless, again, I somehow blew it.

Druxy, maybe you didn't see my post above?  Please read it.

Certainly for the singers, as I recall.

[ChasSmith]

Hard go, that is.

I’d be interested in seeing/hearing Powder Her Face.

[ChasSmith]

I’ve got another webinar to watch this afternoon. Something - which is probably way over my head at this point - involving MainStage and...uh, something.

Am I prepared, or what?

Fortunately, it’ll be available to watch for a while.

[bk]

And gentle people, this site has an "ignore" function - use it if someone's posts are annoying you and you'll never see those posts.

I do have a DVD of that. Haven’t watched it.

If I can figure iut how to copy that, I’ll send you a copy.

[John G.]

Ooh, there’s a Theremin in the orchestra pit.

[John G.]

Three!
