When we saw WALL-E,  I predicted (out loud, I have witnesses) that we'd soon be seeing a lot more of Hello Dolly.  Little did I know.  Son is rehearsal pianist and pit musician for Dolly at his old high school this summer.  I'll be getting a head start on the empty nest next week, according to this schedule we just received via email (love the last line):
