October 21: Miserables or Miserable?

While waiting to drop my kids off at school this morning, I introduced my son to the music of the Broadway show "Les Miserables". Now listen, for those of you passing immediate judgement on my entertainment tastes, I can tell you that I'm not a big Broadway show fan. However, many years ago, a buddy of mine introduced me to "Les Miserables"; he had an extra ticket with his wife, and given that I was probably his only still-single friend at the time, he figured I would take it. Anyway, I loved the show! Since that time, I took my wife, then both my wife and parents on separate occasions. For the record, my wife doesn't care for the show at all. And, yes, I do like the music; I find it inspiring. So, I thought perhaps my son might take to it, as well. He didn't. It's not that he didn't like it, he just wasn't interested other than asking me what music it was. Probably for the best. Not sure I'd want my son going through the next dozen years of school bragging about his love for "Les Miserables".
