And Now for Something Completely Different 0

Afterthought:

Second Son performed in a community theatre production of this show when he was a young ‘un. It’s quite a nice musical; it was Rogers and Hammerstein, for Pete’s sake. You can find the whole show–not the one he was in, the one that was on the telly vision–somewhere on that YouTube thingee.

Still Afloat 0

The SS United States, a historic and record-breaking ocean liner that once hosted royalty and presidents, has escaped the scrap heap and will undergo a rebirth, supporters announced Thursday.

The ship’s conservancy group issued a statement saying it has an option agreement with a redevelopment partner. No further details will be released until a news conference Feb. 4 at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal in New York, according to conservancy spokesman Tom Basile.

The nature of the “rebirth” was not announced.
