Last night, we saw "All The Villains Are Here", written and performed by Patrick Page, at the BroadStage in Santa Monica. An excellent show, with a deep dive exploration of all the villains in Shakespeare, explored chronologically. We really enjoyed it. @allthedevilsrhere.bsky.social #LAThtr

Oh, great Internet brain: I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade my existing Windows 10 system to Windows 11, or purchase a new Windows 11 system. Details are in the attached post. I'm on extended support until October, so I've got a little time, but I do need to decide. Opinions?

Over the holidays, we break our rule about seeing live performances to see some filmed performances. This year, our Christmas movie viewing featured two features: “Wicked: For Good” and “Song Sung Blue”. Here are some short writeups of those films. Both were excellent.
