I hope that the head-line here a week from now does not read "AN EPIC FAILURE!"
The $65M production of "Spider-Man, the Musical" is set to officially open next week on Broadway. It had its preview performance over the weekend and, according to the Times, had the audience "hooting with laughter." The cause, alas, was mechanical difficulties which left Spidey and his girl friend dangling over the audience. The show was stopped 5 times to retrieve the hapless actors, at one time pulling the title actor down by his foot.
A review in the NY Post called it an epic failure with high-tech gadgetry gone awry, a dull score and a baffling script.

Nope.
Just followed The Rules and that's how it fell out.

Rhys picks Houston over Philadelphia in tomorrow night's game. It is probably not a bad choice, but so far he is alone.

@ossobuco,
I only did it cause I put in a tally sheet for the first 12 weeks that was perfect. I don't yet have a loss on the season Twisted Evil

Oh, in that case you are in 1st place, replacing Spendius.

@realjohnboy,
It might be the only way to replace me as the man to beat. 4 weeks to go. Good luck everyone.

@spendius,
We need for the leaders to disagree on more games, Spendius, to shake things up at the top.
The Sunday and Monday night games should be awesome (I may have to take a nap in the afternoon in order to see how they turn out).
Pittsburgh and Baltimore are both 8-3 and need wins to get good position re byes and home field advantage. AndyClubber tells me that the loser may not even make the playoffs. The NY Jets and New England are both 9-3. There is a pro-Patriots and/or anti-NYJ bias here.
So far, the other games are not dividing us by much.

And, by the way, happy Hanukkah, which began an hour or so here on the east coast of the U.S. May your oil burn long and brightly.

@ehBeth,
Yes, Alexis taught me to play with the dreidel..

we had an odd landscape arch firm: the owner, a born in america kid, although in a camp to enclose japanese, who was sort of buddhist and, now, today, is a catholic; an observant jewish woman, of whom I speak, from whom I learned a lot, although I also learned a lot from Harvey, he with the PBS program; me, clear atheist but not particularly loud, having been other than atheist; and some mixed, with which religion never came up. Guessing a mix of lapsed catholics and not observant protestants, maybe just not at work talkative on that subject, given the other matters re work.

We talked about other stuff at lunch, mostly. But we didn't avoid religion if it came up.

Maybe there were few evangelicals wanting jobs in land design back then - or maybe not. Those probably went to cal poly. Not snarky, just thinking demographically.
