Well, you've read the notes, the notes went neither left nor right, and now it is time for you to post until the not going left, not going right cows come home.

Here's a time-lapse video of the Lick Observatory folks taking the shutter off the roof and putting it on the ground:

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

A few replies for yesterday:

Thanks, Jrand, for hoping I had a good time.  I did!

Jane, in our school group, more of us are currently single than currently married, but only a few of us have never been married.

Congrats, Kevin, on your 3-fer Wordle score!

John, about Yeston's December Songs, I have Andrea Marcovicci's original recording, and I should have the corresponding songbook. :)

"...reaper cushions." :))

I slept late, and then I went down an iTunes rabbit hole trying to access all the Bach Advent, Christmas, and New Year cantatas. Now I'm back.

I had weird dreams about Kim Criswell and I working on a show recording. We seemed to be in New York, although the geography looked like Middletown, Ohio, and several Dublin friends like Annalene Beechey made appearances.

It's my mother's fault! I had a fortune in comic books when I left home in 1964 for college. Between September and Christmas break, my mother, who cleaned house every whim and didn't care that 20 years of old Middletown Journal newspapers littered most of the living area, tossed out my entire collection. "You are too old for comic books."

Today has been proclaimed a day of rest and recovery for the likes of little ol' moi, so I will most definitely be not going left, not going right. In plain language, I shall be sitting on my ASS, grateful to not even be sticking my head outside.

Today is former DR Julie Miller's birthday.   In her honor, commit some acts of fraud and deceit against some people who trusted you with their lives and careers - I'm thinking possibly Julie would be honored by your carrying on in her despicable, corrupt tradition.

Sincerely, and with parodic intent,
Freddie
