The Bad and The Better==>B+

First, a big TGIF shout-out to all of my loyal and faithful readers and followers out there in the hinterlands, wastelands and boondocks and to all of my Worker Bee friends who are watching the clock from the vantage point of their cubicles, wait-stations, broom closets and wherevers.

I hope that each and everyone of you have a wonderful and enjoyable weekend. Just remember my Worker Bee friends==>your weekend starts at no earlier than 5:00pm, so keep at it.

Moving on to ...

Billi Pod’s report card on last night’s THE BAD AND THE BETTER, the detective thriller about anarchists and the people who control them==>B+.

I totally enjoyed this show which has incredible performances from a 26-person ensemble. The energy level is fantastic, and that is putting it mildly.

The story line is sometimes a bit difficult to follow as it branches out into political corruption, undercover agents, vendettas and, I think, environmental accidents. But, I was literally on the edge of my seat for the entire show.

Yes, there is a lot of violence, gunshots, and the bodies begin to accumulate on stage toward the end but when it is over you get the feeling ... “wow, that was really interesting theatre.”

So, Billi Pod says==>this is definitely worth seeing. It runs through July 21st at Playwrights Horizons.

Another good factor about the show==>the 2:25 running time kept me from experiencing the horror that was transpiring out at Yankee Stadium, The House That Greed And Ego Built.

What am I talking about you are no doubt breathlessly asking? Well ... long and sorry story short ... The Bronx Bombers got another good outing from Ivan Nova and had a 3-1 lead going into the top of the 9th. Then, the bullpen imploded with a costly throwing error and a 3-run homer and the Yankees lost 4-3. Major bummer!!

Which leads me into tonight’s entertainment event, which will be ... tada ...

7:05==>YANKEES/WHITE SOX in game 2 of the 4-game series. On the mound for The Bronx Bombers will be the AAA callup, Adam Warren, who will be making his major league debut. Jose Quintana (2-1) will be pitching for the White Sox.

During the game I hope to meet up with John Scott Reed aka Fabson and our mutual friend Ashley Zandy. With them will be Maria Claudio and Scott’s friend Bernard. Ashley is from Sebring, FL, is a major Gator, and recently left The Big Apple to move to California for a major management position with FaceBook. Looking forward to seeing you guys.

Man ... didn’t I tell you that the spin doctors for both the Republicans and the Democrats would have a field day handling the Supreme Court decision on ObamaCare? Yes, I did.

When do you suppose the House Republicans will begin the process to impeach Chief Justice John Roberts? Jus askin ...
