Ahem.
Kate Garraway and Jenni Falconer pay tribute to
the late Dolly Parton in cowgirl-themed ensemble
Sorry, ladies. While I admit to having quite the crush on both of you, you’re severely deficient in at least one department in the “tribute” attempt. But full marks for trying and in fairness, there aren’t that many women who could measure up to Dolly, so to speak.
And of course there are no pics because #CopyrightHucksterAssholeLawyers.
If you don’t know what the above title refers to, then you obviously weren’t with New Wife and me as we attended a concert of sacred a capella music at the Anglican Church of the Incarnation in Dallas:
…featuring Cambridge University’s incomparable Trinity College Choir.
Some Renaissance composers kicked it off, then a short pipe organ interlude to allow the lads and lassies of the choir a chance to rest their voices and catch their breath, then some “living” composers (none of whom I knew, but whose offerings did not suck), another organ interlude followed by a couple of earlier (dead) composers such as Thomas Tallis, and after one more organic interlude came J.S. Bach’s Komm Jesu, and finally the exquisite Nunc Dimittis of Gustav Holst.
While it was of course choral music, we couldn’t help but hear the leading soprano, who had a voice best described as “operatic”, and the leading male tenor, who with his perfect pitch kept the choir in tune throughout the entire concert.
All White man’s music, performed brilliantly by White teenage kids to an appreciative (and mostly) White audience. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.
As New Wife puts it: “Food for the soul”, and indeed it was. We came away well fed, and contented.
Spend the next hour or so watching a guy rehabbing a WWII-era building, all by himself.
I promise you, it’s worth it. Bravo, Luxon. I’d rent the place — hell, add a small shooting range and I’d live there.
And if the last couple of minutes don’t make your mouth water, you’re better man than I am.
….following my decision to stop posting tottypics:
And her feelings about herself:
“I love my facials, massage, I have a little Botox because I frown a lot. I do do things, but when it comes to my body, I’m really precious about my body.
“I love my body, I absolutely love my body. I did a marathon this year.
“My body has got me through so many things, and I just love my curves, my husband loves my curves.
“I just think it’s unfortunate that women feel the need to change who they are.”
(This may become an ongoing feature…)
Continuing our lingering look at Luciana Paluzzi:
The one I envy most of all is Sean Connery.
And that’s it for the Classic Beauty feature on this website.
