"Book of Mormon" won as best musical of the year at the Tony awards. In accepting the award, the acceptor made several jokes--"we wrote it because we wanted to be a big Mormon family, and now we are"--"we want to acknowledge one of the authors who died, thank you Joseph Smith, now you got your Tony Award". The singer who did "I Believe" did a great job of singing the song and it was quite clever and sung with enthusiasm, really looked like a Mormon missionary. From the little that I saw, it did look like it had a lot of humor and fun music. They did not show any outrageous scenes. Hard to assess without seeing it all. It evidently is a hit so will be around for awhile, that is for sure. Question is why they wanted to write it in the first place. They said it took them several years. Obviously they had a Mormon author to help write it.
It was a beautiful sunny day today. We had several visitors at the Branch and a good pot luck. My lesson went ok with lots of participation, especially from the visitors. They were a lot of fun to talk with after the meetings.
Michael and I drove to Frosties and I had a root beer float and he had a shake and then he worked on his assignment to create a Web Site and I watched the NBA Final game. It was very exciting and the Mavericks won, yea!
Bandido is not getting the idea of the training pad at all--don't know what to do with him. His eyesight is really getting bad also, poor doggy. Growing old is for the pits.
