Taxi Driver last night was intense. It was Bernard Herrmann's last score. It also has a supremely creepy use of Jackson Browne's "Late for the Sky."

I'll miss next week's class singing a chamber chorus concert at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco. Next week's film is Saturday Night Fever so it all works out.

Do you not care for Saturday Night Fever - or maybe just not that interested in analyzing it?

I have not heard the score of SIX.....it doesn't seem to interest me....but I could be wrong.

Is the Bob Martin who wrote the libretto for the current Broadway show BOOP! the same Bob Martin who wrote THE DROWSY CHAPERONE?

Yes.

Got the very unwelcome news this morning that a dear friend died April 30 from cancer. Pardon the French, but: Fuck cancer.

We were supposed to have access to the new apartment to start moving stuff on the 7th. Now it looks like it won't be until the 12th, at the earliest. And the movers come the 13th. I'm kind of in a panic.

Can't you reschedule the movers?

An hopur ago, I went into the bathroom to have a nice bath. Only . . . one of the cats - I suspect Stella - had diarrhea all over the edge of the tub and running down into the tub. I spent the last hour cleaning up.

I can't say I feel like a bath at the moment. Damn!

I just finished watching BECOMING THE RICARDOS on FreeVee.....the 2022 movie about Lucy & Desi and the Red scare moment.....

What a bunch of BS.....couldn't they just tell the true story?  Why mix everything up?

It made for a good story though I agree, just tell the true story.

George I thought you were trying to tell us you were cast in a production of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues. Yikes! Good luck with your thumb. Thumb vibes.

Thanks, Rodzinski.  And I don't think I would be cast in that.  I don't think I'm who their audience is mainly interested in. ;)

M, whose real name is Robin Scott. One of the great one-hit wonders. #1 in the U.S., Canada, Australia. Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, and South Africa. So topped the charts in New York, but not London, Paris, or Munich.

Very interesting.

Someone posted on reddit the other day TIL which means “Today I learned…” and it was about Patty’s convoluted scenario of paternity uncertainty among three possible dads. And someone commented, “Wow, I guess a hot dog really did make her lose control.”

So, was that before or after Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell?

I have not heard the score of SIX.....it doesn't seem to interest me....but I could be wrong.

The week of King Charles' coronation, Youtube suggested for me a video by Horrible Histories called "The Monarchs Song."  It was so much fun!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSvKc-8frp8

I binged on all their videos. It was a kids' show about history: "History with the nasty bits left in!"

So I learned about Henry VIII's wives (and other English history).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTdTDCRKvvM

Six the Musical is unrelated to Horrible Histories. But I knew their stories. It is about the six wives having a competition to choose which one had it worst. Each queen is based on a modern pop star.

Not my favorite kind of music, but fun nonetheless.

And then they’d ask you other questions, and then they’d play notes later on, and they’d say, ‘Which is the note we played from one hour ago?’ And I’d, like, get it right, I guess.”

 Rescheduling movers can be tricky (I originally typed “trucky,” which is also true).  Thet book out in advance so they may already have no time for Singdaw. Ideally, the place is ready in time. How stressful.
