What Doesn't Belong?

Saturday Matinee, Estee Lauder Youth Dew, Menthol, Metropolitan Opera, and Me? I had my first opera experience today courtesy of the Metropolitan Opera's Live HD program. Check it out here http://www.metoperafamily.org/metopera/broadcast/hd_events_next.aspx. I purchased tickets for my mom for Christmas, and today was the day. You visit your local movie theatre and watch a live opera streamed from the for real Met in NYC! It is a behind-the-scenes look and a close-up view of a live opera. Do it if you can, it was great and I'm sure I'll do it again. Yes, the majority of the audience was in the 70ish age range, but I'm thinking it takes most of us that long to realize what wonderful entertainment an opera provides. I saw a specific elderly couple going into the theatre dressed in their Sunday best, holding hands, with big smiles on their face. I am hoping I can convince Rich to go with me someday, but it may take until he's that old!
