I also think of all those hard copy Playbills that people took care of all their theatergoing years, and when they're either gone or maybe they're forced to downsize into smaller quarters for senior living will just go into the trash by their relatives. 

I was given a box of Playbills from the 50s and 60s (mostly) and I still have them.

Nice!


Thanks, Freddie.  One I these days, I should go through that box and at least make a list of all the Playbills that I got.  Some even had the tickets attached!

We had various kinds of burgers (beef, salmon, and vegan field roast), and I had to do all the barbecuing. ::)

There was a very nice slight breeze, but it never got windy enough to blow the cards away.

The new Stephen King novel, Never Flinch, is certainly prescient. It deals with a deranged right-winger who wants to kill people who are pro-choice.

TOD: I started piano at 5, switched to trumpet at 10, then to voice at 30. I still play the piano enough to help learn my voice parts and play easy things. My trumpet chops finally died altogether a few years ago.

For some reason, this reminded me that for about a year, I actually took accordion lessons when I was maybe seven years old.

I haven't read a Stephen King novel probably since the 1990s...I don't know why.

Tuesday evening greetings!

DR Ginny, I'm happy you had a good time with the new grandson. Did you tell us his name and I missed it?

DR Elmore, our grandson is named George (for Mary Linda’s maternal grandfather) Walter (for Rob’s maternal grandfather).  That last part kind of undid me for a minute.

Very sweet. :)
