I don’t remember the show at all honestly. It’s become a running joke that I usually pick the show we see because if that time she picked Chess.

Yeah that doesn't make sense. I saw what must have been the original West End production on a trip to London but I remember nothing about it except the friend I went with HATED it.

116 years ago a bunch of working class women changed the world because they got together and fought for their rights. Their fight is still our fight.

It's about a woman in a love triangle with two assholes who play chess, so it's hard to like the plot. Florence needs to just slap both of them in the head with a chess board.

It's got some good songs though! I enjoy the music and keep going to different productions of it and then not liking it. And yet I keep trying.

I think there were naval engagements but I don't know much about that. And there's a sign in my neighborhood telling you where the Continental army camped. But they just camped.

I could quote almost every post of this great thread with a fact about Ruza Wenclawska!

Ruza Wenclawska was a member of the Women’s Trade Union League and was one of their organizers for the 1913 New York garment workers strike.
This Day in Labor History: November 14, 1903. Leading unionists and female reformers met in Boston to create the Women’s Trade Union League. This was an effort to support unions for women workers and to fight the plague of sweatshops that defined the lives of so many women in the years!!!

The suffragists who picketed the White House in 1917 demanding the passage of the 19th Amendment endured arrest & imprisonment for the cause. Many of them, estranged from their own families because of their commitment to the fight for democracy, relied on each other for support...

I want to look at some of the undigitized letters. I should ask them if they’re working on those before I go.

One of my elderly relatives reposted a similar one about how he spent millions founding a pet shelter. Maybe it's a combo veterans and pet shelter.

I started to feel better pretty quickly once they stopped the procedure and gave me saline instead. Now I know to stay away from sodium citrate. It's apparently in processed cheese, but hopefully I'm only allergic when it's pumped directly into my bloodstream!

This weekend I found out I'm allergic to sodium citrate. So I am now banned from donating platelets. It's fun to suddenly get itchy and puffed up at the blood donation place.

You are in good company. In 1913 Lucy Burns was arrested and fined $1 for chalking "votes for women" on the sidewalk in front of the White House. www.newspapers.com/article/the-...

One of our new students came into the library wearing a Blondie t-shirt. At first I couldn't remember ever seeing them but then I remembered I saw Blondie, Elvis Costello, Flock of Seagulls, and for some reason Genesis at JFK stadium in 1982. That was a long time ago.

They're filming something at the library today. They have one of those wearable cameras but they don't seem open to my suggestion that we recreate the Broadway Sunset Boulevard walk through the library.
