Robert Wimer | "Tom, Dick Or Harry" from Kiss Me Kate | Day 297 - Listen, Help A Critter & Donate
"Tom, Dick Or Harry" from Kiss Me Kate, oh man, this brings back a lot of memories of one of my first college musicals I was involved as a chorus member.
"Tom, Dick Or Harry" is a quartet sung by three men who are anxiously trying to get Kate to marry them. Each one of them tries to give their reasons why Kate should choose them. I was neither Tom, Dick or Harry, but how I knew the song is an interesting story.
On one of the rehearsals, my friend, Neil Tapp, who was playing the part of Hortensio came down with laryngitis. We were in desperate need to get the scene rehearsed and, as they say in the theatre, the show must go on. Neil was getting nervous because he didn't' want to be cut (which, in retrospect, was silly, he would have still been in the show). When his part came up and he began to sing, I knew that he couldn't do it, so I, having a very similar voice quality as well as being able to project, sang his part stage right. He gave me a quick glance and lip-synced the whole part. I had heard this part so many time, I did it by memory. Neil was happy and he performed well later on.
Only 68 days left...

Verse
GREMIO:
I've made a haul in all the leading rackets
From which rip-roarin' rich I happen to be,
And if thou wouldst attain the upper brackets,
Marry me, marry me, marry me.
LUCENTIO:
My purse has yet to know a silver lining,
Still lifeless in my wifeless family tree,
But if for love unending thou art pining,
Marry me, marry me, marry me.
HORTENSIO:
I come to thee a thoroughbred patrician
Still spaying my decaying family tree.
To give a social goose to thy position,
Marry me, marry me, marry me.
Marry me!
GREMIO & LUCENTIO:
Marry me!
HORTENSIO:
Marry me!
GREMIO & HORTENSIO:

LUCENTIO:

BIANCA:
I'm a maid who would marry
And will take with no qualm
Any Tom, Dick or Harry,
Any Harry, Dick or Tom,
I'm a maid mad to marry
And will take double-quick
Any Tom, Dick or Harry,
Any Tom, Harry or Dick.

h-r-6666-coronavirus-bill-overview
H.R. 6666 bill introduces funds for the employment of contract tracers, monitoring, and removal of individuals from housing to "other quarters" should a person test positive for the coronavirus/COVID-19. In this video, I unpack the bulk of the bill and give my opinions.
Sources:
H.R.6666 - COVID-19 Testing, Reaching, And Contacting Everyone (TRACE) Act
This bill authorizes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to award grants for testing, contact tracing, monitoring, and other activities to address COVID-19 (i.e., coronavirus disease 2019). Entities such as federally qualified health centers, nonprofit organizations, and certain hospitals and schools are eligible to receive such grants. In awarding the grants, the CDC shall prioritize applicants that (1) operate in hot spots and medically underserved communities, and (2) agree to hire individuals from the communities where grant activities occur.

robert-wimer-the-preamble-schoolhouse
With "The Preamble", I'm starting my new theme and those of you who are in your 30s and older will remember a little Saturday morning show called "Schoolhouse Rock". It was a great "in-between" spot where you learned a lot of cool stuff while waiting on your next cartoon. "The Preamble" song is how I learned the Preamble of the Constitution.
The lyrics are as follows:
Hey, do you know about the U.S.A.?
Do you know about the government?
Can you tell me about the Constitution?
Hey, learn about the U.S.A.
In 1787 I'm told
Our founding fathers did agree
To write a list of principles
For keepin' people free.
The U.S.A. was just startin' out.
A whole brand-new country.
And so our people spelled it out
The things that we should be.
And they put those principles down on paper and called it the Constitution, and it's been helping us run our country ever since then. The first part of the Constitution is called the preamble and tells what those founding fathers set out to do.
We the people,
In order to form a more perfect union,
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the common defense,
Promote the general welfare and
Secure the blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
In 1787 I'm told
Our founding fathers all sat down
And wrote a list of principles
That's known the world around.
The U.S.A. was just starting out
A whole brand-new country.
And so our people spelled it out
They wanted a land of liberty.
And the Preamble goes like this:
We the people,
In order to form a more perfect union,
Establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the common defense,
Promote the general welfare and
Secure the blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
For the United States of America...

Surely the Presence of the Lord is a hymn that I remember singing on the last Sunday at the Methodist Church. A nice little memory for me.
Only 92 days left...
Lyrics:
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
I can feel God's mighty power and God's grace.
I can hear the brush of angel's wings,
I see glory on each face.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
In the midst of His children
The Lord said He would be.
It doesn't take very many
It can be just two or three.
And I feel that same sweet spirit
That I felt oft times before.
Surely I can say
I've been with My Lord
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
I can feel God's mighty power and God's grace.
I can hear the brush of angel's wings,
I see glory on each face.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
There's a holy hush around us,
As God's glory fills this place.
I've touched the hem of God's garment,
I can almost see God's face.
And my heart is over flowing
With the fullness of God's joy.
And I know, without a doubt,
That I've been with the Lord.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
I can feel God's mighty power and God's grace.
I can hear the brush of angel's wings,
I see glory on each face.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place
