I can't come. Sometimes, my private life and not only my work interfere with Garth Games.

Don't do that. The other players would be very disappointed.

Yeah, but if you're not playing -- then I'LL be disappointed! OK, I'll go ahead with it -- but I'll be very unhappy.

I share your disappointment, Matt, though I'm not sure yet if I'll have time to play either.

Sorry, I couldn't help looking this up:
There's no business like show business like no business I know
Everything about it is appealing, everything that traffic will allow
Nowhere could you get that happy feeling when you are stealing that extra bow
There's no people like show people, they smile when they are low
Even with a turkey that you know will fold, you may be stranded out in the cold
Still you wouldn't change it for a sack of gold, let's go on with the show
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Are secretly unhappy men because
The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerk
Get paid for what they do but no applause.
They'd gladly bid their dreary jobs goodbye for anything theatrical and why?
There's no business like show business and I tell you it's so
Traveling through the country is so thrilling, standing out in front on opening nights
Smiling as you watch the theater filling, and there's your billing out there in lights
There's no people like show people, they smile when they are low
Angels come from everywhere with lots of jack, and when you lose it, there's no attack
Where could you get money that you don't give back? Let's go on with the show
You get word before the show has started that your favorite uncle died at dawn
Top of that, your pa and ma have parted, you're broken-hearted, but you go on
Yesterday they told you you would not go far, that night you open and there you are
Next day on your dressing room they've hung a star, let's go on with the show!!

Decisions decisions........

I share your disappointment, Matt, though I'm not sure yet if I'll have time to play either. First Julie, now Mick !
To quote Jack Benny as that great Polish Shakespearean actor 'Josef Tura' in TO BE OR NOT TO BE --

I'll tell you this right now, Tele -- you were NOT the inspiration for a segment of tomorrow's quiz!

Already three no-shows for tomorrow's contest -- valuable players all (Julie, Mick, Kijii). Should the number climb to five, then as Astaire & Buchanan sing in THE BAND WAGON:
'I Guess I'll Have To Change My Plans'
... and postpone the Quiz until Sunday.

Should be ready within a half hour -- just finishing off Saturday morning ranch chores (feed the cows, milk the chickens, etc.)

Hang in there just a few minutes more. Got to finish bandaging the littlest Garth's cut on her knee injury from a fall off the swing. Have to finish it before Lady Garth returns from her clothes shopping at the mall with the Garth girls and blames it on me for being a neglectful parent.
