When, oh when, will the weather get better? It has been lightly raining most of the day and the haze is so bad that from the 41st floor looking North you can only see a couple of blocks. Yuk!!
On the only good side==>it is above freezing so we won’t have to worry about more ice and, hopefully, the remaining ice will melt and go away.
And, yes, I do know that it is also majorly nasty in a good part of this country. I ask you a question ... can anyone remember a year when the Winter was any nastier everywhere? I sure as Hell can’t. And, my loyal and faithful readers, we have barely made it to the halfway point ... I shudder (no pun intended) to think what the future may hold weather-wise.
OK ... on to more positive things like==>A major shout-out to Sandy Mullon of Anna Maria, FL, who is celebrating another birthday. I actually just got off the phone with her and I am happy to report that she is doing and feeling well.
She has a lot on her plate at the moment with: teaching art history at State College of Florida in Sarasota, looking out after multiple dogs, cats and chickens, tending garden, and maintaining her ties to The Island Community on Anna Maria Island.
Hopefully she can arrange her many activities to work in a trip back up to The Big Apple, maybe in May.
So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDY!!!
The Bo Burnham concert last night was fabulous. He used every profanity and PC incorrectness known to man. I was by far the oldest person in attendance. No matter. Very very funny. Had a great time.
A slight downside to the event ... I thought the concert started at 7:00pm (it was on the ticket), so I left PHC around 6:15 and got to the theater at 6:30. There was a long long line in the freezing and windy cold. WTF!!! Well, long story short ... 7:00pm was the time the doors to the venue were to open, the concert wasn’t until 8:00. Actually they didn’t let us in until 7:15 and people were getting kinda pissed. Oh well ... guess it goes with the territory in The Big Apple.
It was rumored that The Bieb would be at the concert. Well, if he was he was 100% hidden from sight and Bo made no direct or indirect reference to him.
Speaking of The Bieb==>he was again on Letterman Friday night, this time he delivered the night's Top 10==>“Reasons it's fun to be Justin Bieber.” It was funny. When it is over I turned off the TV but I understand he later played drums with the band.
It is also rumored that he will make a “surprise" appearance tonight on SNL.
Tonight’s entertainment event --
8:00==>A PERFECT FUTURE - “This darkly comic and provocative play explores the question of whether people can be married and truly love each other when their political persuasions are diametrically opposed. (Off-Broadway - discounted TDF ticket)
Yepper, there are those two deadly words again in the press blurb ... dark and comic ... meaning, usually ... very very dark and not very funny. Hope this is not the case for this show.
Well, it is now 3:30pm and it is still very nasty out, so I think I will just close this posting out with what is perhaps one of the more provocative musings ...
Musings from THE MIND OF BILLI POD (a memoir in progress):
“I don’t care what your Mother’s new live-in ‘girlfriend’ says - you’re 12 years old and guys do not sit down to pee.”
GO GATORS AND GO YANKEES!!
