  1. Several years ago I saw 'Hamilton' in New York with a friend. Good time. But, we missed President Obama at the previous performance. I met a future hire at Rounds in New York on my birthday, but we did not meet in bed until ten days later.
  2. If I used twitter more often, yes. But, only people who are long-time activists like Joan Baez.
  3. Avalon, I saw the place in the forum in Rome where he was supposedly killed. Wikipedia is not always correct. If you disagree, please send me a PM, so we do not waste space here.
  4. 20th centuary Pope Puis XI was 'unavaible' when Hitler visited Rome. In the Forum ruins in Rome there is a place where Caesar supposedly died
  5. Interesting because I liked Jefferson Starship in person, but also Chicago, Janice Joplin, Patti Smith, Judy Garland (1961), Peggy Lee, Judy Collins as well as many all-male bands like U2, The Stones, Talking Heads
  6. AMAZING
  7. I am 74 so the people I have seen the most over many years are Bruce Springteen, Bob Dylan and Joan Baez and also Ella Fizgerald.
  8. +1 for visiting your dad often.
  9. I have digital subscriptions. But I also occasionally buy the newspapers. Here in Phily: The Times is three dollars. The Wall Street Journal is four dollars. Cheap for what you are getting.
  10. The occasional over dependence on Wikipedia.
  11. Yes, I am old enough to remember a little. True of many things at my age (74).
  12. The year Hunter starred in the film "Damn Yankees, " Tony Perkins played the same role on stage in Massachusetts summer theaters, just the ones with the big audiences.
  13. Tab Hunter proformed on Broadway with Tallulah Bankhead in a Tennessee William play. Aguess:The Milk Train doesn't here anymore might have been the title. I'll miss him.
  14. I was visiting Amsterdam the year the World Cup took place in Germany. Four years later in Prague when the tournament took place in South Africia. The other side to the violence is the joy when Holland won a match. In 2010, people were for Slovakia in the square near the Jewish Quarter in Prague. I am one hundred percent Scottish so the English fan do not bother much, despite totally stupid stuff.
  15. An interesting industrial city in northern Spain. My last visit was 1973 when Franco was still alive. Ugh.
  16. @edjames, I liked Barbara Harris in 1965, so might consider seeing it again. But, I agree with everything you wrote.
  17. Othter choices: the historic area, also called Old City and/Society Hill; Fitler Square: rethink the area near Penn.
  18. Yes, every show has a connection with Rodgers & Hammerstein and/or Martin. Thanks.
  19. I live in Philadelphia. My suggestion near the Benj Franklin Parkway where the apartments are relatively cheap because of massive development.
  20. Delayed birthday wishes to a super nice person whom I met in Philadelphia. Nice is not a birthday exaggerstion.
  21. When I saw the revival of South Pacific on Broadway in 2008, an elderly lady sat next to me. She wanted to talk. I was concerned. Glad I listened. She was in the original production of South Pacific, and wonderful comments about Richard Rodgers and Mary Martin. And she loved the revival. What seemed like an awkward situation was very interesting. Unsure of the spelling of her lsst name, so have to guess. Perhaps Her name: Bernice Sanders
  22. Sorry. I should have been clearer. I visited Bosnia about five years ago, especially Mostar.
