Playlist For Sunday, Nov. 17, 2019: Every Who Down In Whoville!

November snow...wow. How lovely. 8 inches or so out there this morning. What better way to wake up. I mean, IF I were a 3rd grader, I'd be out there with my snow pants on, making a fort already! Before pancakes even! Now I'm a curmudgeon-y 63rd grader who sees only shovels, plows, lousy driving conditions, and a schedule gone to hell in one of those handbaskets. And hardly pancakes; more like gruel on a stick. Someone should make rose-colored glasses and sell 'em at Dollar Tree. I need a couple thousand pair.

So we must elevate with Broadway (and blueberries!). And WHO better to do that than 2 On The Aisle, I ask you! And WHO is the key word here, Broadwayphiles. WHO knew there were that many songs asking the "Musical" question: Who? Who Couldn't Dance With You? Who's Got The Pain? Who Are You Now? In fact, Who Are You, anyway??? Who Cares, you say? Well, don't you want a figurative pair of Dollar Tree cheaters (or blinders? or a nice cucumber facial mask, at least?)? Especially here, in Upstate Gulag NY. That's what I'm here for, providing goofy themes to warm/titillate/exhort you to lighten up already! It'll be a hoot. You're welcome.

And while you're shoveling and salting and sliding around on 490, you can hum along with Patti and Bea and Santino, and ask yourself...WHO, just WHO thought of frickin' snow storms in November!?!?! Pass the gruel. :)
