Tom Lehrer, song satirist and mathematician, dies at 97tps://www.cnn.com/2025/07/27/entertainment/tom-lehrer-death — His G&S version of "Cementine" almost deserves an opera to be written for it.

And the revelation is startling, because I am fond of a fanfic novel BASED on the premise that the #C3PO of #StarWars #ANewHope was not the one in #EmpireStrikesBack : The Changeling: fanfiction.net/s/7380690/1/T… (Starts slow, but it all becomes important in the second half.)

I had forgotten just how beautiful the opening bars of #StarWars Main Theme is, when it isn't rushed or caricatured. And I had almost forgotten about the Star Wars Radio Dramas, so I'm glad someone is pointing them out.
#StarWars A New Hope and summer do seem to go together. Here's another source for Star Wars the Radio Drama: archive.org/details/08Episod…

Shades of the delightful play, /A Sensation Novel/, by W. S. Gilbert (gsarchive.net/gilbert/plays/… ). It's grand to see who the characters are OUTSIDE the novel (or movie, in this case).
Here we go again.
Please enjoy (in spite of the sand).
