Good Friday morning from Collegeville,

On move day, I shipped the Direct TV box back. I had become addicted to HBO and Showtime. I would record many of the shows like Web Therapy and Boardwalk Empire. Now I use the TV for watching DVD’s, period. The first one that I played was Adele recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall. She has an awesome voice and during the last two numbers she asks the audience to sing with her. Very good stuff. I do plan on getting wireless and maybe Netflix will come in handy during next winter. Spring should arrive someday soon and then TV truly becomes the vast wasteland. With The World and Fresh Air on MPR each night, there is plenty of info available. I will still send my money in to public TV.

The APHC show this week is the last spring rebroadcast before the show goes on the road. This one was recorded at The Town Hall in New York City in April of 2012. Renee Fleming sings “Hallelujah”, the Punch Brothers perform “New York City” and Heather Masse and Aoife O’Donovan sing “Time’s a Hoax.” On the News From Lake Wobegon, Pastor Liz is stopped by the Highway Patrol after a boring blind date. Enjoy the show.
