Well, you've read the notes, the notes were Mahler-esque and Klemper-esque (Mr. Klemperer was apparently quite insane), and now it is time for you to post until the Mahlerian cows come home.

And the word of the day is: IRENIC!

The word of the day should be a word that the current occupant of a White House should learn.

Well, crap. My wi-fi went out and turning my modem/router off and on hasn't helped.

I'm posting from my phone now, but I was watching/listening to an opera on YouTube, so I can't anymore tonight. My TV cable is fine. It's just the Internet.

I'm running some kind of diagnostic that's going to restart my computer and automatically do some other troubleshooting things. I don't think that'll help. If it does, great. If not, I'll go to bed and wait to see if it works after I get home tonight.

George · « **Reply #5 on:** November 17, 2020, 01:18:19 AM »

Whew! It actually worked! And now that it does, I'm going to shut it all down and go to sleep.

Have a good day, all!

Really enjoyed bk's musings on Mahler.

singdaw · « **Reply #7 on:** November 17, 2020, 03:21:30 AM »

And the New York reminiscences. Fascinating.

Glad to hear that DH vixdad is OK. My goodness!

Also, thanks to DRs TCB and George for the cute puppy.

Good morning, all!

I must do laundry this morning. I would rather not.

Jeff, our super, has our building thermostats under control, and I am much, much happier. The chillier weather seems to only affect Annabelle, who eagerly cannot wait to crawl under my blankets around 3 AM. Thatch has been avoiding my bed, which is unusual, and Stella never shows up to cuddle until long past midnight. She stays for a couple of hours, then spends the rest of the night romping, to my dismay.

Mrs Peterson's puppy is adorable.

DR vixmom, I hope Steve was not injured by the shingle pelting.

DR JohnG, I too was never told anything about holding off on the Metformin post-colonoscopy. I was advised to eat yogurt to help restore bacteria to the lower intestine.

BK, I have not made the update to Big Sur; I've been too apprehensive over what damage it will do and the last round of upgrades resulted in my having to wipe my computer and rebuild it from the hard drive.

I got the latest issue of Gramophone yesterday, and this new 13-disc set of Felix Slatkin got a very nice review.

I’m not sure that I’ve heard any Klemperer Mahler.

He wouldn’t be the only one missing from my roster, but that does seem rather remarkable.

Sorry about the confusion folks momentary brain crash, of course I meant Ginny’s son and daughter-in-law getting negative results on their covid tests

vixmom · « **Reply #21 on:** November 17, 2020, 05:09:27 AM »

TCB have you received your results yet?

Elmore, I don’t eat yogurt. I won’t eat yogurt. End of discussion.

Maybe I’ll have some kimchi instead.

I certainly enjoyed the notes and reading about the music and the NYC trip.....

There is a protest this morning at the Statehouse in Indianapolis to protest the Covid restrictions.

Why would anyone protest actions that are designed to help one?
