I have been enjoying the audiobook of Never Mind the Happy, Marc Shaiman’s autobiography. It’s perfect as an audiobook because he has songs and more. The printed book has pictures. But the audio is a separate treat.

Now off to Mauna Kea observatory at 14,000 feet. Of course we came to Hawai'i for the snow!

Have an interesting time, and LOL.

The Duvall news was not welcome. Here he is doing a tango with his wife.

There was a pause and then she asked: "What about homicide?"

I said: "You've got me there."

Was on YouTube prior to that, fell asleep and slept through two Tony Randall Hercule Poirot movies that came up while I was dozing.

I saw Ann Morrison’s staging of the original Merrily script. The audience hated it, but they were attacking the score, not the script. It was odd.
