Next I watched the 1935 GO INTO YOUR DANCE. A wonderful song score for the movie even though Ruby Keeler, though just one year removed from her hit DAMES, looks like she had aged 10 years. She looked SO matronly, not at all the ingenue she was playing. (I guess being married to Al Jolson did that to her.)

I had totally forgotten that the great Helen Morgan was in this. She only got to sing one real number (we got to hear snatches of another), and she played a selfish, rather bitchy part, but it was good to see her in another movie from this same period of her life as SHOW BOAT which would come along the next year.

Was this on TV or from a Busby Berkeley set or single DVD?

See my Friday Media Check from this morning.

It was a Warner Archive DVD.

Now I'll tidy up my computer desktop and then head down to watch GAMBIT.

WBBL.

That's funny, because Betsy and I were just saying how this season's SURVIVOR has been more fun to watch than the last several seasons.

I think it might just be that I am losing interest in the show. I so look forward to THE AMAZING RACE each week, and ditto for BIG BROTHER when it is on during the summer, but when it comes to SURVIVOR it is always like I can put off watching it, and then I have to force myself to do so...or at least it feels that way.

Besides, with James having been eliminated from the game....well...he was awful good scenery!

When was James eliminated?

Keith stopped at Radio Shack & picked up new speakers for his computer.  He just put the Boise speakers from his computer onto mine. Now he is trying to get the little, easy to use, volume gadget to work.  It was extremely loud until he used the mouse to adjust the sound.  I hope he can get the easy to use thing to work.

Wasn't he eliminated last week? Or am screwy? OH, wait, that was Tom who was elminated wasn't it. Never mind then. I guess I will still want to watch...although I did really like Tom, as well.

FAUX SPOILER ALERT

I had the work session, which went pretty quickly, actually.  Have spent some time talking to the pressing plant - I think they're going to handle sending out all the replacements (however many there are) - I'll simply start compiling addresses for them and/or simply forward each e-mail.  I don't really want anything to do with the actual making this right process.

[bk]

Then I had some lunch at Hugo's, did a few errands and whatnot, and that's about it until I either hear or don't hear from Grant about working this evening.  I'm really hoping we can, because I'm sure we can finish what we have to do.

PEAL ME A GRAPE!

My Aunt Betty has been released from the hospice to go home and is in a condition very close to DR ELMORE's Uncle Bob....she is a very nice lady who worked hard all of her life....she and Uncle Al had three daughters.  Daughter Jenny was just a few months younger than I am....she had a hip deformity, but went to school and worked hard at a rehabilitation center until she passed away in her early forties....two other daughters Susie and Helen.....so we are thinking about them all today and dreading the phone call. 

Betty is my mother's next to oldest sister.....sister Edith is still living.....

~~~Vibes of Comfort for JRand's Aunt Betty and her Family!!~~~

[George]

Good morning, all!

Thank you all for the vibes. My Uncle Bob died last night around 10:30 pm. This morning, after my trip to the Post Office, I will stop over to Holy Trinity Church and say a prayer for him.

BTW, BK, my copy skips on tracks 1 thru 4 and 5 thru 8.

What CD is this again?

My prayers are with you, my dear elmore.


And prayers and vibes to Jrand's Aunt Betty, as well as to Jrand and family.

Up very early (again) today as DS Betsy had to get up at 4:30 to go to the airport, as she has a business meeting in Klamath Falls (or at least, that's what she's telling me). 

That is not going to help your completion.

I haven't caught up on yesterdya's posts, so I would imagine it was mentioned  a lot yesterday.  But continuing yesterday's TOD, one of my favorite amnesia movies is "Random Harvest."  I will have to watch that again soon.

Good choice, Kerry!  I love RANDOM HARVEST.

And the only asylum film I enjoyed was CAPTAIN NEWMAN, MD.

True, except he just took them back.  The speakers he got for himself don't work.  Poor guy has spent way too much time on speakers. 

My sound sure did play pretty music.  I hope I get it back.  I'm still using the laptop & at this rate may be doing so for a few more days, longer if speakers need to be ordered online.

[George]

Well, this is interesting:

EXCLUSIVE: Richards Departs A Christmas Story, The Musical!; New Composer Sought for Seattle Bow.

Not that I was planning on seeing this, but I wonder what was wrong with the original score...or the composer.

DR Laura, I am pleased to see you posting this morning & that you avoided swarms of bees.

Swarms of bees?

This article has a lot more info than the short headlines I read this morning:

Another reason not to shop at Walmart.

Hakanu Matutinal?

Isn't that a song from LION KING?

[Jane]

I have exciting news.  I don't know if had anything to do with the fact I did not do my regular exercises this morning, oddly because I felt too good to do them.  I did about 10 minutes work before going to PT figuring it would be good for me & I always skip the afternoon ones when I have PT.

From now on I'm not doing any exercises before PT.  I had a fantastic session with a fraction of the usual terrible pain!!! 

Sitting here now typing I'm experiencing the usual amount of pain, while not desirable is ok.  I can't express how relieved & grateful I was during therapy today.

Did you read about the Walmart store that announced over the loud speaker all Black people must leave the store?  They don't know if an employee or customer made the announcement.

The pressing plant is being stellar - replacement discs will go out next week, so if anyone here has a problem disc (I think only Druxy did), then e-mail us at kritzerland at gmail dot com, and be sure to include your address in the e-mail.  I'll be forwarding each e-mail received directly to the plant and they will take it from there and I don't have to worry about anything.

My mom and I enjoyed today's spring-like weather by going to the library, Dorothy Lane Market, Olive Garden, and Bern's Garden Center.  She was exhausted when I took her home.  I stopped at Kroger and did our shopping, came home and made pizza for dinner and now I'm exhausted.
