Troubles Be Gone – How to get through it…

I had had a rough day. The things that were supposed to happen, didn’t happen. The things that never were supposed to happen, happened. It happens to all of us. 


Yeah, life on planet Earth can be a roller coaster ride. I thought to myself, “Well, what do we do now“? How do we turn defeat into victory? ...

The phone rang. I picked it up and the lady on the other end said, “Hi, I am the director of the Creative Arts program at Camp Newfound Owatonna. I’m looking for a teacher to put together a music class for this summer's creative arts program at camp. I’m wondering if you might know someone who might be interested.” Long story short, needing a vacation, I took the j...

From the New York Times: Quote: “Much Ado About Nothing is a feast! Joseph Papp’s 1972 CBS television production of the New York Shakespeare Festival’s staging of Shakespeare’s rollicking comedy is brassy, bouncy, and all–together entertaining. Featuring Sam Waterston, Douglas Watson and the Tony Award performances of Kathleen Widdoes and Barnard Hughes, Papp’s turn of ...
