Another Thing! (10-07); Richard Rogers

I'm seldom moved.

Rogers has done it - was very moved by something he said/way he said it

The chap who co-wrote musicals

It was my intention to take-off one of his writings.

Distracted by yesterday's encounter

Important

(Making space for chats)

He's written glancingly, tangentially of a '4 legged friend' who has been referenced by me occasionally here

Scrambled, or brief note, then I'll leave

Had it in mind to check the schedule for Commonword-Wednesday evening, 9th. Was catching-up on work. Didn't do it

Also there was a poetry event on(Central Library) I'd thought of. On Friday 11th there's one. Need to look in on that one.

Bye

I will listen to some of

I will listen to some of that stuff 40 umpteen times on purpose! Who was the one who went to live with blacks in the southern states? Gershwin probably? Whoever, he said he felt like he was home then. I haven't gone off 'em, they're less important

We could start a music thread. (Maybe not)
