^ That's awesome, that you've come upon a song that gets you, understands you, and totally reps you too! I'm still looking for mine, lol. Good going! EDIT to add: Actually my current Go-To song is "Hasa Diga Eebowai" from the Broadway musical "Book of Mormon". And I shall not translate it, kiddies. Go check it out for yourself.

{ I posted this in the MUSICALS thread, but it definitely belongs here, too... } Hey all - I just watched an amazing online concert, of an annual New York event called Broadway Backwards which features Broadway artists singing songs from shows that are usually sung by the opposite sex. This year, they did an online feed of the show, and the results are A-May-Zing! Quite moving too, in a few of the numbers. You only have until through this Saturday to watch this, in it's entirety. EDIT to add: It is an extreeeeeemely LGBTQ2+? Positive production. I was crying during several #s at the intensity of the artist performing it. And how they put it all together .... was really amazing and truthful and honest. I loved it! Enjoy. https://www.broadway.com/buzz/200577/watch-starry-broadway-backwards-in-its-entirety-right-here/ And Please Be Forewarned: Because of the way this broadcast is being done during these times, there is a plot in it, which deals with isolation, drugs, alcohol, and personal identity and loving of one's self. Heavy, but worth riding out, especially with Jenn Colella as your guiding host. She's a trip, really! And she was the (TONY-nominated) Airline Pilot in the 911 musical "Come From Away". "Cell Block Tango" (all woofy guys) is not new - but it still KILLS!

Oh, are we there, yet? Totally forgot! Silly bear I is. -
Now listening to what I think is another Stephen Schwartz musical masterpiece, this being The Prince of Egypt, in London. The lead, Moses, is brilliant vocal wise. The photo of him in the enclosed booklet helps, too. Woof. It's great, I love it already - sadly, it closed less than a month after it opened last year, because of You-Know-What. Hopefully, they'll be able to reopen it, hopefully with this same wonderful cast! And could they ~ would they bring this to Broadway? It's a brilliantly scored musical, really. The London cast leads. With Mr. Woof {Moses} on the right. Hey, Str8 or G'eh, you are most welcome.

^ Hope the after effects are minimal for you. David has his (finally) 1st shot scheduled for early April, Yay! I should be getting my 1st, a week or so after him. A "Burger Blast From The Past" circa 2020.... The Everything Burger! ... Discuss.

More magical by the hour! Actually ....... we think it's great, that a lot of the stuff that is at Disney Parks around the world, might show up in some form or fashion at The Original Park, after all these years! And me and David, are only a nice overnight train ride away from all this, is truly awesome for future visits! It's going to be interesting to see what they actually install in the areas they intend to "Theme and Connect" with the 2 parks. However it works out. And Mickey & Minnie's RR is about ready (nearly) to open, Woo Hoo! Where M&Ms Runaway Railway will reside in Toontown. And have an awesome new entry queue, in toon with TT. Thank you Blitzen and MiceCHAT.com for the photo.

^ LOL! Now which theme park was this taken, at? Thanks, Bert. I was trying to be more, uh...."low key" this time 'round, what with Covid all last year, etc. So I brought up the B-Day in other threads, heh.

For my "Birthday Dinner" yesterday (I turned 68!!!), David bought us a take out burger meal from Vera's on The Drive. And he added Onion Rings to his (I do miss those filters), and I added Fries to mine. Excellent, as always. http://www.verasburgershack.com/ For David. For myself.

Hey all - I turned 68 today (Mar.30~21) so I just wanna say, hello, and welcome to my werld. I love theme parks and coaster. But also a good steak dinner somewhere, or a seafood platter will suffice. Been collecting cast recordings of Broadway (and other milieu) for years. And a true Stephen Sondheim (Into The Woods, FOLLIES, Company) FANBOI. Have met him, talked with him, and exchanged b-day and holiday cards. Life is good, some times.

Back to my glowing self, today. Now 68 years old!!! A Double Aries. Deal with it. "I see you shiver. With antici ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- pation."

Today is my 68th Birthday!!! And husbear David gave me earlier, a $100 Amazon.ca Gift Card for the occasion! Smart bear, trained him good. And I just immediately blew the whole thing on four items, and still had to pay a few $$$ more. But the shipping is free and excellent, from our past orders with them. Here's 3 of the 4... (4th was plain boring slippers) Always wanted a waffle-4-one maker. And "Purple Galaxy" was too awesome to pass up! Had to try this. TJs isn't around these parts, sadly. A pricey way to enjoy Kit Kats. But the box alone, made me want to get a pack! (And the empty Fuji Box, I will keep afterwards, lol.)

^ And those are all the attractions* in the new DisneySea expansion, called Fantasy Springs, currently being built. * Except I'm still real IFFY on whether the Frozen attraction is still a boat ride in TDS, or something else... TestTrack/IndyJones-like? That's just me. Same for Zootopia in ShDL.... TestTrack attraction. And the New Peter Pan attraction is supposed to resemble a "boat ride" but it looks like (from prior video PR), it might be something like the Avatar Flight attraction in WDW-AK. Very exciting!
