OK, way to just talk out of your ass.

I asked if anyone was bored and listening to Ragtime, not for random idiots to interject with a report of the inane trivialities of their night.

I was earlier today, does that count?

Or I suppose yesterday - it's past 2:30 AM where I am, though I usually don't consider it the next day til I wake up, or it's a day I'm waiting for (birthday, New Years, Star Wars opening, etc.).

EDIT: BYW, after listening to the Ragtime finale, does anyone else rewind/backtrack to when the "Wheels of a Dream: Reprise" starts over and over again? I do that sometimes like ten times in a row!

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

I'm not presently listening to Ragtime, but "Sarah Brown Eyes" is next on my playlist. (I'm in shuffle mode)

Yes. I have been listening to "Wheels of a Dream" for about 30 minutes now(sadly, this occurs fairly frequently.)

I think the question should be:

Is anyone listening to RAGTIME and really bored?

How is that any different from the initial question besides switching the two thoughts around?

The first question suggests RAGTIME as a cure for boredom; the second one suggests that RAGTIME is a cause of boredom.

I'm not sure about that, but Ragtime cures MY boredom.

I sing Wheels of A Dream every single day at least once in the shower, without fail, and have done so since the show opened in Toronto....
