Monday funday

Through a series of small mix ups, my Monday has been packed with Photoshop duty to whip up some last minute ads for Faust. Not to mention, our 09/10 Season brochure (announcement coming soon!) was just sent to the printer, so we've all been a bit nuts. And the office copier decided to take an extended rest today as well. So really it's just been another predictably unpredictable Monday. On that note, here are two entertaining bits from the web that similarly left us laughing and scratching our heads: Madison Opera Trustee Pete Lundberg (who I've just learned goes by the pseudonym "Art Throb" for Brava Magazine) has a mind-bending April column well worth a read, and blogger OperaChic posts that the May issue of Vanity Fair will have a two-page spread on the opera stars of the Met's HD Broadcasts (Madison audiences will recognize Nathan Gunn and Danielle De Niese, two recent recitalists here).
