Quiet Time

Taking a break from the medical & political pandemics, the 24 hour news cycle, the theories, conspiracies, the he said, he didn't say, he did, he didn't do, world, for quiet.  You'd think I'd find something else of interest, as important, timely? 

Well there's this: 

'Cocktails with Curators' on youtube by and at The Frick.  The last one was Holbein's portrait of Thomas More which is hung juxtaposed to Holbein's portrait of Thomas Cromwell.  The cocktail choice fittingly was the 'Bloody Mary'.  I enjoyed being there in the details of a hand and the beginning of a 5 o'clock shadow.

It was quieting even without the Bloody Mary.

Then there's the Irish Rep's 'The Weir' on youtube.  One of my favorite plays that they've done.  I'd call it a very close play, to be absorbed as much as heard like O'Neill's 'Moon for the Misbegotten'.  We'll see if it works on youtube. 

Thanks for listening.

The BMI count continues and when there's breaking news you'll hear it here first.
