I am going to the theeder early. Our ticket person is supposed to be selling A Christmas Carol tickets to the cast.

She's not starting until six - and I expect we'll have a nice long line that will last until well past their seven p.m. rehearsal start time.....she always does that....and of course she cannot be convinced that starting earlier might be helpful.

DR Freddie, thanks for the wonderful Georgia Engel clip from yesterday.

George, you were lucky to have seen her live.

Did some writing - not much, but forging ahead bit by bit. I'm coming up to a section that should be fun and go pretty quickly. From then on, things get much easier.

I just had a nice long chat with my much older sister -- even much older now, since today is her birthday.

Happy birthday to your sister.

I was going to do a time-stamp test, too, but we lost the internet here (including TV) here for a while.

So here goes. What time is it now?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #105 on:** May 28, 2025, 02:29:38 PM »

A perfect 5:29 Eastern! Excellent.

Freddie · « **Reply #106 on:** May 28, 2025, 02:35:05 PM »

I don't recall seeing this before, so if anyone else hasn't seen it.

Congratulations on the review, DR MichaelG!

Here is our Elementary school song:

Up on a hill where the honeybees roam
There is a school not far from home.
Honeyhill's its name.
It think it's grand.
It is the best school that is in our land.

I like that

And there was another one. We alternated singing them every other day:

We are very proud of Honeyhill
Our challenging work we do.
The good teachers we salute.
Our complaints are very few.

Our school is very beautiful
But it's not the outside that counts.
It's the quality of the work we do,
And every year it mounts.

We also sang the Pledge of Allegiance to a very catchy tune.

Jane · « **Reply #113 on:** May 28, 2025, 03:14:03 PM »

I don't think I had an elementary school song.

singdaw · « **Reply #114 on:** May 28, 2025, 03:14:04 PM »

And obviously, they have stuck with me all these years.

Keith got Wordle in three.

I saw the original Broadway production of Chess. I only remember the large triangular towers that kept rearranging themselves.

A classic Coke bottle; a souvenir from when I was in China in the mid 1970s:

I had to pay the street vendor the bottle deposit for him to let me keep it.
