Slopey, I saw “Waiting for Godot” with John Goodman, Nathan Lane, John Glover and Bill Irwin at Roundabout last year, and HATED it. HATED. H-A-T-E-D, HATED. I wanted to like it. Really I did. I’d never seen it. The cast was amazing. OMFG, I barely made it through the second act, but made myself see it through.
So I can’t imagine, absent some very strong sexual or monetary incentive, or a loaded gun to my head, EVER again in my life voluntarily going to see WFG.
cgar — star-studded Beckett productions always suck eggs. Much better to see a production with the Gate Theater from Galway. They come to the states from time to time. Beckett can be very accessible, engaging and funny, but not when the actors are mugging or playing for laughs. And the angst is real if you don’t show it. It’s in the language and the situation, actors just need to inhabit it, not express it. Saw John Turturro in Godot once — just awful. Oh, and Endgame is the better play.
Sorry about your situation dona, and good luck.
No dibs, it was from the ‘net but there’s plenty of disagreement on this issue. If you stop claiming SocSec is a disaster, I’ll stop saying it’s an unmitigated success!
And what do you say on Medicare? If one discounts the rising costs which are not unique to it, what’s the problem? Why do most seniors want it?
DIBS, target audience for that stuff is very gullible. The AWAKEN ones naturally do NOT believe any shit from gov – be it repub, dem, lib,….
Rob, I saw Liz Phair at Webster Hall a few years ago, it was fine, nothing mesmerizing really but no regrets either.
Just sit at the bar and keep taking olives out of the condiments box in front of you.
i always ask for my olives on the side (not in the glass) because you get more actual drink in your glass that way. olives displace too much volume.

The CBO used different assumptions than those used by the Social Security Administration, projecting faster growth in worker earnings, higher interest rates and lower inflation
I can make up better projections as well by pulling numbers out of my ass.
“higher interest rates and lower inflation???????”
Just how does that work?????
Where’d you cut and paste this from??? The Retrograde Thinkers Guide To Economics???
“we say what the law isâ€
“penumbras and emanationsâ€
School was fun!
