DR John, I have been undecided if I want to read Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy. I look forward to hearing what you and your sister think of it.

I’m beginning to lose interest.

Please report once you finish reading it.

Didn’t buy The Milky Way. I think Bunuel was just too angry.

Starting A Big, Bold Beautiful Journey. I like Margot Robbie and Colin Ferrell. Hopefully I will like their movie.

The pro-shot Merrily will supposedly be streaming on 1/20/26 on various platforms to stream and/or purchase. I hope so.

I am tired.

singdaw · « **Reply #158 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:14:07 PM »

Two more days.

I don't think I posted the results of my medical appointments today.

singdaw · « **Reply #160 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:14:47 PM »

[1] I do not have skin cancer and the doctor found nothing alarming.

singdaw · « **Reply #161 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:15:25 PM »

[2] I would not have passed the eye test if it were administered by the Dept of Motor Vehicles, and it's time for a cataract surgery consult.

Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln...

singdaw · « **Reply #163 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:15:52 PM »

Good night, friends.

singdaw · « **Reply #164 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:15:58 PM »

And others.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #165 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:22:01 PM »

Neapolitan, yeah. That was the big treat when we were kids. A box of it.

John G. · « **Reply #166 on:** January 13, 2026, 08:47:11 PM »

Good night, all.

Thanks so much for posting that Met Opera link last night, DR George!

You're welcome, Singdaw!

Back from a decent final dress - no real audience, just us and designers. The big issues were energy at the top of the show - very low - and then establishing the tone instantly - if we don't let the audience know it's okay to laugh, it's a rough road ahead - but that's more difficult than it sounds because the subject matter is not funny - it's the delivery and quirky that's funny and last night they didn't let us know what - they have before, so we'll now get that back.

And speaking of opera, has anyone heard of the La Gran Scena Opera Company?

MichaelG · « **Reply #170 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:24:04 PM »

Did you have costumes tonight or does that happen tomorrow?

George · « **Reply #171 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:24:11 PM »

I hadn't, but this full-length video of one of their performances popped up in my feed:

George · « **Reply #172 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:25:04 PM »

That's when I searched and found the website that I hyperlinked in post #169.

George · « **Reply #173 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:25:42 PM »

Very funny stuff!

George · « **Reply #174 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:25:55 PM »

But really good, too!

DR George, if that egg salad is more than three-four days old, I would approach it with caution. About ten years ago, on - I believe - the CBS News, a food person gave a short Thanksgiving lecture on Thanksgiving leftovers and how long to keep them in the fridge. Then she went on to talk about items like ytna salad and other items. It was rather scary,

Thanks for the warning, Larry, but I looked...and shouldn't have.

George · « **Reply #176 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:29:19 PM »

It is quite past its edibleness date.

George · « **Reply #177 on:** January 13, 2026, 11:30:28 PM »

I'll dump it just before the next time I take out the trash.

Congrats, Jrand!

Soooo, a caesar salad without the dressing is ... romaine lettuce and a few croutons?

And some parmesan cheese.
