So trying vixmom posting style, that got us to page 3!

Freddie · « **Reply #61 on:** August 28, 2025, 12:42:41 PM »

I still feel I should have spread it out more. (It's almost 4 pm Eastern time.)

Thanks, Jrand!

Is posting on HHW about spreading out postings on HHW what someone might call "Meta," I wonder.

Freddie · « **Reply #64 on:** August 28, 2025, 12:48:45 PM »

I know Facebook is what someone might call "Meta,"

Freddie · « **Reply #65 on:** August 28, 2025, 12:49:14 PM »

and indeed Mr. Zuckerberg DID call it "Meta."

Freddie · « **Reply #66 on:** August 28, 2025, 12:50:17 PM »

I don't think I have enough to say to get us to page 4 before 4 PM (Eastern).

And I guess regarding June Styne songs, on balance "I'm Going Back" from BELLS ARE RINGING is indeed on the obscure side to the general public, while "The Party's Over" and "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" are famous songs.

Jule has many.

In the last two days, I have listened to Buena Vista Social Club and Real Women Have Curves. Buena Vista is an exciting jukebox musical, if you like salsa. Real Women is surprisingly traditional Broadway with a salsa flavor. I think I would enjoy it on stage. And I expect it to be staged many times in San Antonio.

Researching pie today. Anyone ever had Amber Pie, which includes blackberry jam with a meringue topping?

The reviewer who gave the new book four stars, but mentioned in this review that he had given volumes 1 and 2 five stars, was - when Amazon had that category - a "Top Reviewer." The "Top Reviewers" to keep that status have to be concerned about being seen as helpful to the general readership - his five stars indeed must have been very helpful in my volume 1 and volume 2 having exceeded my expectations in sales, if I'm understanding it right.

(As I'm sure you know, John G, but others may not, they used to have Top 100 and Top 1,000 reviewers, etc, based n how helpful people found their reviews - but they discontinued that.).

Food arrived shortly after I got up - a turkey, Swiss, coleslaw and Russian dressing on rye from Daughter's Deli - thanks to a 50% coupon.

I've got to listen to the lyrics of Real Women Have Curves with more attention. IIRC, I think I let the score just wash over me while doing other things.

Page 4 before 5 pm (Eastern) seems in reach

bk · « **Reply #75 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:25:33 PM »

I am absolutely fascinated by the number of people here who got books delivered but have failed to mention it - unless I missed it - Singdaw, JohnG., Freddie (who mentioned but hasn't retrieved), vixmom, Jrand. All show as delivered.

Freddie · « **Reply #76 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:25:42 PM »

but I can't find the stuff to fill it

Freddie · « **Reply #77 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:25:53 PM »

without the posts irritating even myself.

It reached the package room about 2 p.m. yesterday - but Skip did go by the package room before, and they were closed for an employee party.

We have the Kindle and paperback, but am very very curious as to any extras that come with the hardcover from Kritzerland.

Some of those mentioned having received the book.

BK sometimes speaks of irritating videos, but here's a video series so faux-irritating it's hysterically funny.

Freddie · « **Reply #82 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:37:18 PM »

I post this only because it's a slow posting day, and posts must be filled on the way to page 4 before 5 p.m. Eastern.

They must! (almost a Pillow Talk reference)

Freddie · « **Reply #83 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:37:48 PM »

Have you seen these two Jews doing comedy, who as part of their shtick wander around in places like parks singing (supposedly) improvised songs to people just going about their business.

Freddie · « **Reply #84 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:38:09 PM »

This one is hysterical and NOT suitable for work (unless you work for yourself) -

Freddie · « **Reply #85 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:39:01 PM »

where they serenade a handsome, nicely built man reading a book shirtless on a park bench - though I'm guessing the man was in on the type of comedy they do, maybe he's even an actor, because he's not shocked.

Again, VERY not suitable for work, and only to help with posts on a slow-posting day.

And now page 4 is in reach.

Freddie · « **Reply #87 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:40:54 PM »

Actually, those two Jewish guys have some very funny stand-up shtick in actual comedy clubs.

Freddie · « **Reply #88 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:41:21 PM »

Just a couple of posts away.

Freddie · « **Reply #89 on:** August 28, 2025, 01:41:32 PM »

One post away.
