One of the things I really appreciated about the Obama's was how they embraced the Arts.

3. I remember watching this around the time it happened.

I had no idea who this Miranda dude was, but I loved his history-based music. Even though I don't, or didn't, like rap or hip-hop.

The Miranda dude changed my mind. I bought the album. I bought the book (Hamilton: The Revolution by LMM, as well as Chernow's biography).

I can sing most of the musical by heart!

4. Hamilton is coming to Disney Plus in July (which is what prompted me to post this).

He is good people all around.

5. Argh!

I just added CBS All Access so that I could watch Star Trek: Picard. Now I'm going to have to add Disney Plus, too!?!

6. Lol!

I know I am... for at least one month. $6.99, BTW.

7. With my current expectations of the course of the pandemic,

I suspect that I'll go for the one-year subscription. I need more at-home distractions. But not until July!
