August 20, 2008

At today's singing lesson we worked on the German songs "Ich Liebe Dich" and "An die Musik" (by Beethoven and Schubert).


Dinner was salmon.


There were just four people at the Walking Meetup (Julie had laryngitis), but I had a good time anyway. We walked east along Danforth then took a new route to the north back to Broadview.


Saw the DVD of John Ford's The Prisoner of Shark Island, about Dr. Samuel Mudd, who treated John Wilkes Booth's leg after he shot Lincoln, and was convicted of conspiracy by a drumhead court.  It was a combination of historical epic and prison movie, very timely in view of Guantanamo justice.


I've been reading more of the posts I wrote at mrcranky.com a decade ago.  I sure miss those days! (We'll see what the new version is like.)
