Hear, hear, for Parterre Purple, as well as for a baby doll-style t-shirt for us ladies.

Don’t mind what’s underneath it, either…

So far, Leontyne and Justino, and Ezio too, sound just fine.

Oh, here comes “Give me some Music” let’s listen to Queen Leontyne!

“Tony & Cleo” in ’66 was my very first Met Opera broadcast, back when we still wrote on clay tablets. The rest is history. This should be fun to hear again…and the cast of Zeff thousands clumping around on the broken turntable as I recall.

I like the idea, armer. The more so that my great grandfather was an officer of the Tsar, which means that I will sing Boris Godunov to your coloratura .

I’d join you, Armer, but the Amish just hum.

To think I heard that one on the radio the night of the premiere, trillion years ago….and I’m still here!!!!

You wait. I found out recently that if you go beyond the East End scratters which make up my more recent ancestors, you end up at the French Protestant Church of London in the 16th century… which makes me a Huguenot. So if you’re not all careful I’ll sing you some boring coloratura.

And of course black is so more forgiving.

I’ve been watching too many Oscar roundups.

Oh, thank you sweet Sr. Cruz.
So happy I can still hear it.

You are as good inside as the outer packaging looks!

I think the black shirt is a slightly “beefier” fabric, plus apparently it’s more difficult to print on dark fabric than on light.

Why, indeed?!?

And I WANT PARTERRE PURPLE! I mean, it’s queenly, after all.

I want the black one! How come it’s $5 more than the white one???

BIRTHDAY ALERT, La CIECHISSIMA!!

Isn’t today Samuel Barber’s 100th birthday and isn”t going to transmit the original broadcast of “Antony and Cleopatra”!!?? God, hoioe I didn’t miss it.

“Gentile La Cieca”? “Gentile La Cieca” ! ! That’s painfully reminiscent of “F.B. Pinkerton, Jew. Jew.”

Doubt it, boricuas do not mix business with pleasure.

You got a problem with moobs? eh, eh? LOL!

Lindoro Almaviva — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:05:47 +0000

Betsy, I will have to agree. As nice as mayan meat is 9and i have had some) we boricuas have the perfect combination of spice, salt and flan to make it the complete meal.

Cruz, I had no idea we were both boricuas. Contact me privately, please.

Don’t knock ban-beat ’til you’ve tried it.

By: BETSY_ANN_BOBOLINK

BETSY_ANN_BOBOLINK — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:57:18 +0000

I chose “Mayan” for the alliteration. “Post-Boriquen ban-beat” just doesn’t cut it.

By: CruzSF

CruzSF — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:49:21 +0000

Hahaha. Oh Betsy, I love you. [FYI: It's post-Boriquen, not -Mayan. ]

By: BETSY_ANN_BOBOLINK

BETSY_ANN_BOBOLINK — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:26:52 +0000

Blush, my ass. You knew you were going to get this the moment you posted it, you throbbing hunk of Post-Mayan man-meat, you.

Nice shirt, nice build, but what’s with the cap concealing the eyes? Looks like a classified ad for an escort.

Happy to see the coffee mugs. It will be the evil twin to my Zabar’s!

Gentile La Cieca, how about developing a line of ladies’ tees, in tones of mauve, lavender, or ‘Parterre Purple’. I mean, there are several of us girls mixed up here, too, besides many ladies, and we would like to share in Parterre Pride!
