Chorus: "When will our suffering end?  When water is heavier than sand"--The First Emperor

"Taste my kissing soup!"--ibid.

"You're a hard, scheming old woman, aren't you?" 

"And ugly"

--The Man From Laramie


Dreamed of singing "Red River Valley" to a foreign woman.


Saw Tan Dun's Met opera The First Emperor at the Paramount.  Pretty powerful, though it took a while to get into.  Placido Domingo has a great stage presence. (I could only find a seat in the front section.)


Dinner was McDonald's.


Saw the DVD of The Man From Laramie, another Anthony Mann-Jimmy Stewart western.  On second thought, it's even better than their Bend of the River!


Baked rye bread overnight.
