Front-Ranger:
Looking forward to receiving this week's issue. There's a story about RFK and the bear!

I wanted something short to read over lunch today, so I turned to Alex Ross' opera article (Aug. 5). I was surprised and delighted to find one of my neighbors mentioned, Chas Rader-Shieber, who directed one of the operas that were staged in Des Moines.
For the first year or so that I was in my condo, he was literally my next-door neighbor, as he rented the unit right next to mine. Once he had some soprano stay over, and I got to hear her practice. :)
He later bought another unit in the building, and he and his husband still live here.
Front-Ranger:
I have kept that issue by my side, as I have wanted to comment on it and say how much I want to go to DesMoines after reading it!
Front-Ranger:
The comedy archive issue has some good articles. Not one but four Shouts & Murmurs, two of them pretty funny.

Wow! I'd better read that one. I have no interest in opera, but I had relatives in Des Moines and it's where my parents met. Although I think now all but one of my family members are either deceased or have moved to Arizona, with the exception of a 99-year-old aunt who lives on her own in a small town in western Iowa.
