Reviews
Lisa
Must see TV: New Cosmos series on FOX. Quite enjoyable.
Thu 10pm CBS Star Trek: Discovery. Don’t have the streaming, so glad to finally
see it.
- Gerald: Went quickly. Didn’t work well for him. Too dark.
- DaveG: Found dialogue stilted. Stories are all over. Not impressed. First two
episodes are the prologue to the series.
- JamesB: Missed opportunity of Black Ops in the Federation.
DaveG:
Cleaning boxes (sorting/purging) found official guide to Babylon5 with bonus
best of enhanced music CD. Came in a box, with another box inside (‘90s
packaging). Enhanced CD Rom! Probably worth what ever the full price was. Who
knows what else is in the archives…
Gayle:
MetOpera.org <http://metopera.org/> Ring Cycle (available on a per episode
price) 89-90. Better than she remembers. Features Jessye Norman. Don’t like to
like Wagner. Well done, but dark. Also features a 6’ 5" Finnish Bass as the
villain.
DaveC:
Ebay Auctions: New Era. Divorced from PayPal. Ebay now handles payments -
yikes! Shipping fees not showing up on invoices.
Gerald:
Listened to Klobuchar's opening remarks on the Judicial. Nice speech, up there
in the Michele Obama category.
Rumor of the Week:
I am not a Question! I am a Free Proposition!!
Adjourned at: 20:49
