Billi Pod Is Officially Back

Good morning my loyal and faithful readers. It is a much better day, physically, mentally and emotionally for Billi Pod.

Overnight he sent a message to self that he was tired of being mired in the morass known as BLAH and ... self being the usual ... well ... self ... responded by sending BLAH the Hell away ... so ... Billi Pod is back!! Thank God and Thank Self.

In the name of fair and unbiased reporting I must admit, however, that last night Billi Pod opted to stay in the warm confines of PHC for the second consecutive night. Yes ... I know ... I know ... but it happened ... so just live with it ... blame it on the nasty weather ... or whatever ... just get over it and let’s move on ... OK?

Anyway ... as an indication that Billi Pod has returned to his usual New York state-of-mind ... tada ... today is an entertainment doubleheader ... YES!! ...

2:00==>HAPPY HOUR by Ethan Coen - “Three one-act comedies: An embittered barfly has a theory--or two--about what the world has become; A lonely young man and lonely young woman can't see how right they are for each other; and, His motel room is so ugly a business traveler wants to end it all.” (Off Broadway - complimentary ticket)

This show has received mostly tepid reviews but it is playing at a theater only one block away, so I thought I would give it a shot.

And then for this evening ...

7:30==>NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA @ Avery Fisher Hall - The featured performer is mezzo-soprano Anne Sofia von Otter doing selected songs from Schubert.

Also on the program: Haydn - Symphony No. 88; Ravel - Mother Goose ballet; and, Ravel - La Valse.

(subscription series).

I am really in the mood for a classical music concert.

Yes==>Billi Pod is indeed back!!

Have begun the mental countdown to becoming a Great-Grandfather. Awesome!!

GO YANKEES AND GO GATORS!!
