    amused1 got a reaction from + honcho in Have you ever met any celebrities?   
    Hmm, had tea with the Irish singer Enya once. Charmingly shy and unassuming. Sang a duet with Judy Collins during a luncheon. As lovely as I had always imagined. Dinner with Anne Rice. A sharply subtle interviewer. Had cocktails with Aretha Franklin and Eartha Kitt. Train wrecks. Played a quintet with Michael Tilson Thomas. Very early in his career. Coffee with Rosie Clooney and Michael Feinstein. They told the funniest, raciest stories. Bill T. Jones at a librarians' gathering where he remembered me from a master class he'd taught, I was by far the oldest dancer in that class. He was daunting. Many others in my decades working in the arts.

    amused1 got a reaction from Kenny in LOSING WEIGHT ... and the even bigger challenge of keeping it off   
    When I was a dancer my bmi stats said I should weigh 35 lbs more than I did. After retiring from dance I did gain about 30 lbs over a 5 year period. 10 years latwr, I'm still between 15-20 lbs over my dancing weight, putting myself in the zone of my proper bmi weight. Weirdly, my Dr wants me to lose 10 lbs.
    I do a decent amount of activity, biking (slow roll) and hard core manual labor from may-sept. Heart rate, BP, and sugar are good. So are my triglycerides.
    I eats what I eat, knowing what's healthy and figure a donut is worth losing 10 minutes of drooling time when I'm 79.

    As a service provider right of refusal is a given. Why a provider sets limits is his domain. May it lose him income, maybe. Better to be up front rather than lose potential income by booking and then refusing. JMO
