GREETING THE DAY

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, it’s a beautiful Sunday, and I had a very nice night’s sleep and therefore I’m ready to greet the day. “Hello day, how’s it goin’?” There, I’ve greeted the fershluganah day. I shall also keep these here notes short because I have not done so since the endless notes of Thursday.

Last night I saw two count them two motion pictures. First I saw X-Men, and then I saw X2. I’d seen X-Men once before and seeing it again made me remember that I thought it passable entertainment, not too long (104 minutes, which includes eight minutes devoted to credits) and paced fairly well. X2 is twenty minutes longer, not paced as well, and seems unnecessarily convoluted, but I suppose it was all right. Alan Cumming is in this one and he’s quite blue and quite German. Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart are, of course, very good actors and seem to be having a good time. And Brian Cox is always fun to watch. Other than that, I really couldn’t tell you what it was about.

What am I, Ebert and Roeper all of a sudden? Shortly, I will be going over to Mr. Grant Geissman’s house to finish arranging the rest of the songs for our upcoming album, so I mustn’t tarry and mustn’t dally, not necessarily in that order. So, why don’t we all click on the Unseemly Button below so we can wrap up these here notes with a pretty pink ribbon and perhaps a cheese slice or ham chunk.

Don’t forget, tonight is our Unseemly Live Chat, which begins at six o’clock Pacific Mean Daylight Savings Time. Accept no substitutes, and we do hope that many of you will be there because it promises to be quite lively and sparkling and filled with merriment and mirth and laughter and legs.

My goodness, these notes are quite short today, aren’t they? Have you greeted the day yet, and if so, what was your salutation?

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must arrange, I must write, I must rock and I must roll. Today’s topic of discussion: It’s Sunday – free-for-all day, the day in which you get to discuss anything your collective hearts desire. So, post away, my pretties and I will see you all at chat this evening.
