PLAYLIST FOR “AH-HA MOMENTS!” 1.20.24

22 Jan

Last week I did  a show with the musical theme, “Uh-Oh Moments!” (If you missed the show, I strongly advise you borrow someone’s notes before the final exam.) So I was trying to think of what to do this week.  What to do? What to do? Then, out of the blue, I had an “Ah-Ha Moment!” (At this stage of the game, I can’t afford to pass up any errant thought or idea.)

PLAYLIST FOR “UH-OH MOMENTS” 1.13.24

14 Jan

We’ve all have those terrible Uh-Oh moments. Moments when you know things are going to go terribly terribly wrong. Example: You put a big spoonful of soup in your mouth and instantly know the soup is way too hot to eat. Or your dentist enters the exam room whistling “You Always Hurt The One You Love.” So I gave my audience a couple hours of Uh-Oh moments (as if I don’t do that every week…).

When’s the last time you played “Is It Animal, Mineral, or Vegetable?” Maybe the last time you ate at Denny’s? Maybe the last time you watched the U.S. Senate? My version of the game (with songs) was a lot more rewarding than the previous two examples. And swinging! Don’t you agree?

PLAYLIST FOR “MANNERS MATTER” 11.18.23

19 Nov

What on earth is going on?  Punching in the house of representatives.  Senators challenging witnesses to fight.  Road rage.  Parking lot rage; grocery store rage. What’s next? Library rage?  People: What are you thinking?  What do you need?  Maybe lessons in good manners?  Okay.  We can do that – because this week on Turntable For One, Manners Matter.  Good manners teach us how to dress, what to say (and not say), how to be courteous and kind. Plus I threw in a few bad manners just for contrast. Well, don’t say I didn’t try.
