Glad to hear the weather's good, but we are getting to the point where
a little rain would be nice for the lawn.

Gotta go. Riverdance at Wolftrap. Taking the kid and a grandkid.
Should be fun.

Riveredance?

I saw that crew in Branson Mo. a few years ago. It was a toss between
"Riverdance" and " Les Brown Jr. and his Orchestra"

Seeing was raised on Big Band music courtesy of my dad, I really
wanted to hear Les, but the Mrs. won out (naturally). So being already
biased i went to the Irish Cloggers.

After the first 10 minutes, I's had enough for the day. after the next
10 minutes I'd had enough for a year. after the first hour I'd had
enough for a lifetime, and about 15 min before the show (2 hrs) was
over, I was ready to hang myself in the lobby.

I asked the wife how she liked it. she said "Eh, it was "OK",,,

I was sure hoping she would have been ecstatic over the show, because
when she acted mundane about it, I thought that was insult to injury,
because here I was stewing listening to all the clunking around don
the stage, when i could have heard a top notch stage band, jst to find
out that she thought it was just...OK???

it won't happen that way again.

guaranteed!

But I hope you had a great time, John!

and BTW, mine may, but you're reputation doesn't really follow you.

PS. As to the last, it's not something about which I'm worried! :)
