Scattelogical ramblings and desultory humor XVII

Thank you! I was having computer withdrawls - even though I work on a computer all day!

The Monadnock Region, NH(Zone 5a)

It's so different when you have to work on one. I used to get withdrawals when I was at work, too, because I couldn't use the computer the way "I" wanted to use the computer!! No one could understand why I was on the computer 8 - 10 hours a day at work, and then WANTED to be on the computer at home for another four or five hours!!

Took a photo of one of our local residents we call the Snow Fox. We have names for a lot of our neighbors.

'Weird Al' has already been taken.

I would accept crazy lawn guy or lawn nazi. I should get one of the mower guy who has OCD about touching all the cars he rides pulling his mower behind him.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Dave, rutabagas and persimmons are both edible! Too logical.

Al - would be more interesting if the OCD guy had to touch all the women he went by. He could be the Green Groper.

one of me at work, one online, one in the garden, one sitting on the couch getting yelled at by the wife - the possibilities are endless!

heehee.
Sondheim wrote "Send in the Clowns" in all those short phrases (and in a limited range) because Glynis Johns, who originated the role of Desiree wasn't a trained singer and she couldn't sustain longer phrasing without taking a breath. And thus was a modern standard born.

Impressive, Amy!!

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Yes - cool Amy. Do you go to Broadway often?

belleville, NJ(Zone 6a)

Pretty often. i have worked in theatre for most of my life - i am a stage manager and lighting tech (sometimes designer). My DH, along with teaching here, continues his work as a production mgr and lighting designer for an intermittently touring artist, and writes software for theatrical lighting applications. In his free time. Of which he has none.
But yes, we probably average about one Broadway/off B'way show a month. I love musicals more than anything, but have strong opinions on which ones. More interesting work tends to be done off b'way. The Broadway shows i see are usually because i am a fan of (or occasionally know) someone in the cast.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

We love musicals too. Are you working now? I thought you were in school. What are some of your favorite Broadway shows? I haven't seen any off-Broadway ones. I hated Cats! Liked Kiss of the Spider Woman with Vanessa. Liked Damn Yankees. (Joe Torre's current emotion.)

i just learned i can do this!

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

When we were kids my dad had us all trained:
dad: Get it?
kid: Got it!
Dad: Good.

And there are so many classic actors in there - Glynis Johns, Danny Kaye, Angela Lansbury, Basil Rathbone, I'm sure there are more I just can't think of.

PS I've already got my long underwear on for the winter! DH sews me in in October and takes me out in April....

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Jeez, I was fightin' this thing for weeks, and when I get it in it's already dead.
