Well, you've read the notes, the notes were about the city that was, and now it is time for you to post until the city cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: HITHERTO!
-
I was writing the Colleen Dewhurst story, but you closed the page!
-
Colleen came up to Tacoma for Parents weekend, when her son was attending the university in town. I was Colleen’s dinner date / escort. George C. Was not with us, but we did chat about him. Oh yes, we did chat about him. I am sure his ear’s were burning. We ate at Stanley & Seafort’s which overlooks the city. Ugly view during the day, but quite lovely at night.
-
The next day I took Colleen to the airport. We rode in one of those golf carts to the gate. A lot of people started to gather. When I helped her down from the cart, she kissed me good bye. LOL! All of these people milling around trying to figure out who I was.
-
I didn’t think the notes were that long.
-
That's a great story, Tom.
-
I didn’t think the notes were that long.
I agree. There have been others that were longer.
-

Right. They were very nice, but not that long.
-
That's a great story, Tom.
Thank you, sir. That was one of the great moments in my life. I loved Colleen.

The only famous person that I've ever interacted with more than just a brief meeting (other than our very own BK) was when I was going to Western Washington University and was in the jazz choir directed by Chuck Israels (https://chuckisraelsjazz.com/). He invited Diane Schuur (http://www.dianeschuur.com/), born in Tacoma but living in Renton at the time, to come up to Bellingham and sing with the jazz band. Another jazz choir member Tod and I got to drive down to Renton, pick up Diane and her boyfriend Paul, and drive them up to Bellingham, and then back again the next day. Diane was a bit temperamental but she put on a great show.
-
Time for bed. The noise has pretty much stopped, so that's good.
Have a good day, all!
-
One-thirty in the morning and some moron just set off fireworks that were so loud they rattled the house. But I cannot tell where they're coming from, if I could I'd call the cops.
-
Good morning, all!
-
If I get my energy up, I will do some laundry, but at the moment I only want to return to bed.
-
There havce been reports of fireworks all over the boroughs for the past week or more. I never heard any of it. Last night around 8:00 I heard fireworks and it didn't last long. The cats didn't seem to notice them at all.
-
DR TCB, I loved your Colleen Dewhurst story. I met her once when she hosted one of the Men's Chorus Holiday concert in the 1980s. Since she doesn't sing, we only met in passing.
-
I may spend today - as yesterday - lying down with the cats and watching Miss Marple mysteries.
-
I also need to pay two bills and I want to do a bit of orchestrating, just to keep nyt mind busy.
-
Good morning, all.
-
Great story, TCB. I’m surprised Colleen couldn’t sing (/sarcasm). Her voice was so musical.
-

My comment was ambiguous. I don't know if she could sing or not. She did not sing with the Men's Chorus. She was a charming hostess.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Gale Sondergaard back when I was writing my column for CORONET.
We lunched at The Brown Derby in Hollywood.
She was a very nice, charming lady.
If you want to read that interview (and others):

Last night was full of firecrackers and fireworks.
My poor dog was "shaking in his boots".
:( :(

I think we’ll have another night of noise.

This is sad. My barber of the past 30 years just called to tell me the barber shop at Radio City will not be reopening, and that he is retiring at 67. I must find a new barber, so I will hopefully find one on the Upper West Side.

At one point last night it sounded and felt like an explosion. We were in our closet at the time so I have no idea if our entire home rattled. I don't think it did.

Sorry. Goodluck finding someone you like.

That’s sad about the barbershop. It always seemed to me like Radio City was a classy place to go for a visit to one’s barber or anything else of that nature.
One of my favorite NYC coffee shops back in the 1990s was the one on the lower level there. I judge coffee shops and diners by their vibe and by their cheeseburger deluxe, not necessarily in that order, and I loved this one. I was crushed when I discovered it was gone.
-
Speaking of things long gone, or even just plain old recently gone, we have BK’s drive through much of my part of L.A. It sounds ghastly, even more so than the last time I saw it.
BK touched my first three neighborhoods — Hollywood, Beverly Hills just off Wilshire & Robertson, and the Pico area where I lived at Beverly Dr. and Cashio for a year — and the last one, West Hollywood. (My others were Palms and Redondo Beach.)
And the museum district. So much time spent in that area over the years. When I first heard about the LACMA teardown I thought I was reading The Onion or something. It’s beyond belief. I don’t even know what else to say.
-
I think I have at least one HITHERTO weed in my garden....pesky....
-
Nice cast poster! And I enjoyed going along for the ride with MR BK although it was ultimately.....sad.
I don't know what that thing is.....that red and white thing.....but hopefully someone will tear it down soon.....
-
Last night around here it was The Last Days of Pompey-Eye!!!
The fireworks were loud - and they were ALL OVER from every direction.
Conrad Birdie Barnum did have the one incident - but I think he may have been napping when it went off and that is why he jumped. The rest of the night he just seem nonplussed.....
-
As for our former houses — the two in Columbus (in Whitehall and Bexley) and two out of the three in Fort Lauderdale, are still there. They’ve had add-ons, but they and their neighborhoods still survive. All of my L.A. apartments survive, albeit with a few alterations.
But the cities themselves are HORRIBLE at maintaining any sense of, and respect for, their histories and what made them distinctive, unique, and wonderful.
-
Woops. My laundry calls. Back later.
-
This is sad. My barber of the past 30 years just called to tell me the barber shop at Radio City will not be reopening, and that he is retiring at 67. I must find a new barber, so I will hopefully find one on the Upper West Side.
Both my dentist and general doctor have told me recently that they are retiring.
-
I think I am up for the day. I may not be.
-
Good morning.
-
Fireworks here last night, too. A florist shop burned down. No word yet on whether fireworks were involved. Wouldn't surprise me.
-
My minister announced his upcoming retirement last week.
-
Oh all right, I'll play along.
I just received a mailing from my doctor's office announcing that my new doctor is no longer practicing there.
Yes, that's right. My new doctor. I'd only seen him once, in March, following last year's retirement of the doctor I'd been with for a couple of years. That one had followed the retirement of the previous one who I'd been with after my first doctor left.
I hope everyone followed that because there might be a pop quiz later.
One office (they have several doctors specializing in various things), four doctors, in eight years. And it's a nice place. I haven't had a negative experience there.
-
As for fireworks...
This is a semi-rural suburban neighborhood with a number of large lots, hilly and wooded areas, etc., so there are always fireworks around, to what I've always deemed an acceptable degree.
And fortunately, none of our cats has ever suffered from fear of thunderstorms or fireworks. I'm very grateful for that. I think dogs in general are more susceptible to that fear. My neighbors lost a beloved dog on a fireworks-laden night some years ago, and I still remember my shock and sadness that next morning. He was a wonderful old boy.
Anyhoo... no pet miseries as far as I know last night. But man, everyone went crazy. What would normally last, say, fifteen minutes to half an hour here on the Fourth was at least a two-hour orgy of booming and displays that we could see through the trees and the distance between us and them. We did our own little grocery-store-bought (i.e. the tame legal stuff) display, to the background sounds coming from all directions. I know people bring the "good stuff" over from Pennsylvania or from down south, that happens every year, and since a lot of them at least have the spaces in which to do that relatively safely, everyone's used to it. But this was something else indeed.

Then you will stay with the practice which should be easy. I hope you like your new doctor there.

If I have to ride in an elevator I wear a mask and do not touch the buttons. I use a piece of paper or something I can trash. Here is an interesting story of how one asymptomatic women eventually spread covid-19 to 70 people, beginning with one person in her building who touched the same elevator buttons.
I thought how they tracked the virus was interesting.

Laura, how does your church find a new minister? I've been through various ways in different denominations.
-
My phone says it's only 79 degrees out there, but I tried doing an hour's worth of work and I am a sweat puddle.
-
I need to get some more water.
-
And I think I only got half of the post hole dug. Maybe tonight when the sun is setting I can try again.
-
Now listening to Rose-Marie. Thank you, Elmore.

Yesterday the vet's office called to tell me about my cat Oliver.
I asked him to repeat what he said a couple of times which he did.
-
I then noticed that the call came from Missouri....and I told him I was in Indiana and didn't have a cat, but that I did have a parakeet named Barnum.
There was a silence and then a click.
I hope Oliver is okay.
-
I would like to get my hair cut on the stage at Radio City - but I imagine the audience would be less interested in the act.

It was a great shop because a lot of men who worked at Radio City used it. I used to see newscasters and TV celebrities, Harold Prince, among others, there. I went through two different barbers there.

I finished my orchestration and now Thatch and I have a Miss Marple waiting.

I'm up, I'm up - eight-and-a-half hours of sleep. Weird dreams.

Laura, how does your church find a new minister? I've been through various ways in different denominations.
We fill out a congregational profile. Each person gets a questionnaire to fill out, and we all fill out something pretty inaccurate as to how we see our congregation. We name a search committee, and someone compiles all the individual questionnaires. This gets sent to the Big Cheese in Los Angeles. These are distributed to all the other Big Cheeses in the country.
Each minister who is looking for a new church fills out his profile, which he gives to his Big Cheese in whatever district he's in.
The ministers' Cheeses sends prospective profiles to other Cheeses in other districts, wherever he thinks the minister would be a match for a church. Then our guy looks through them and sends us any profiles he thinks would be a match for us.
Only then is our search committee allowed to speak with the prospective minister, usually to find out he has accepted an offer from another church. If he's still available, they have a few phone conversations, and then we invite the minister and family (on our dime) to fly out and visit for a weekend. At this point, we are not allowed to talk to any other prospective ministers.
If we are still interested, our search committee makes an offer to our Big Cheese, who relays the offer to the minister's Big Cheese. Negotiations continue through them. We make our offer on the phone with both Cheeses in attendance. Both Cheeses negotiate on behalf of the minister. The church is on its own and generally has to agree to whatever the others request.
If an agreement is made, the minister gives three-months' notice to his church that he's leaving. We pay his moving costs. And we pay his housing and utilities while he lives here, in addition to his salary.
The whole thing is ridiculous and can take over a year to complete.
-
We have gone through the process, met the prospective minister, who then decides he's not interested. So we have to wait for the Cheese to send another profile or two. Then we begin again.
There are always more churches looking for ministers than there are ministers looking for churches. So they get to choose the church. We really don't get the opportunity to choose.
-
Good afternoon!

I hope Oliver is okay but hanging up on you was rather rude.

Our current minister is retiring -- not leaving for another church. It is always disheartening to find out that the minister has been looking for another church while we think things are going ok. We never find out until he has accepted an offer.

Ouch. Vibes that doesn't happen this time.

My Ashland hiking group was a church group. I recall when their beloved minister retired she was gone before the completed process to replace her. The process sounded a bit like yours does.

That would be. Maybe some just get restless to see new places.

This is very interesting. I would not ride in an elevator right now. I would definitely take the stairs. But if I had to I would not touch the buttons with my hands. And I would sanitize my hands after being in the elevator.

We went through something similar to that in our search for our current pastor. It took us a couple of years.

I have had to ride elevators, of all places in medical buildings. Otherwise I use the stairs.

Back from Gelson's - no line, right in, but many people at the checkout counters with loaded carts because heaven knows these selfsame idiots didn't buy enough stuff on Friday and Saturday.
-
Watching a very weird movie called Walker. Ed Harris is pretty wonderful as the man who invaded Nicaragua in the 1850s. But the satire is presented in very Sam Peckinpah ways. Incredibly violent. I'll admit it was interesting to see people in 1850s garb riding in a carriage and reading Newsweek.
-
My goodness, DR Laura. What a friend you have in Cheeses.
-
Groaning is not allowed.
-
I think Rene Auberjonois loved doing Walker. He got to be in his Python movie. He hams it up hysterically.

Or they avoided the markets on Friday & Saturday and are now doing their shopping.

My dentist retired a few years ago, but my dental hygienist stayed with the new owners, so I still go even though it's also moved.

Hi, Jane.

Hi George.

Cube steak was tasty and so was the half a baked potato with sour cream, chives, and butter. Very full, but adding up the calories it's a very reasonable meal, actually. And no more food for the day.
-
Otherwise, just been relaxing and doing a little bit of Kritzerland show work, and just set the last of the guest stars for August. Perhaps I'll reveal them in the notes.
-
LOL DR CHAS SMITH.
-
I think I would like a church where everybody just takes turns.....
-
Watching Pain & Glory. It's very Almodovar. I know BK was not a fan, but I'm enjoying the performances, even if the drug use isn't up my alley.
-
Nick Cordero has apparently died from COVID-19. I saw him in A Bronx Tale. Sad story.

I always forget to buy chives. If I load the potato with chives I don't need the sour cream or butter. I never use both.

I have garlic and regular chives growing like crazy in the backyard. They need next to no babysitting, which may be why they have survived.

-
Laura the process is pretty much the same here, it took 3 years to replace our retired pastor. The first the congregation rejected, the second rejected us and the third was just right. He’s been with us about 11 years now

R.I P. Nick Cordero

I made chicken salad instead of potato salad.....so I have lunch a dinner for a few days......
-
I used green onions from my neighbor's garden.....that he gave me.

You didn't just help yourself? Just today my dance instructor Joy was wanting to go onto a neighbor's property and take their pomegranates. She had to be told no.
-
Say what you will about Almodovar movies, the man knows how to film color. I just saw Antonio Banderas in a shirt that was the greenest green I've seen on film since Cyd Charisse wore something similar in The Band Wagon. The colors in this movie are outrageous. Reminds me very much of the colors he used in Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, which I haven't seen in ages. I'll have to pull that one out soon.
-
So, the fireworks outside are not enough, there's a fireworks scene in the movie, too, to add to the noise. J.B. is not happy.
-
Good night, all.
-
Goodnight John
-
Finished with my viewing.
-
How can we still be on page four???

It's been very hot here.

PAGE FIVE DANCE!!

AARRGGHH!! >:(
-
So, I had four video files that I wanted to burn onto a DVD (not Blu-ray).
-
I used a DVD burning software that I have and set it to burn onto a dual-layer DVD because I had four files and it was 5.54 GB of files and a standard DVD holds only 4.7 and a dual-layer holds more than 8 GB.
-
I burned the four files and the whole process worked.
-
I put the DVD in my Blu-ray player and, of course, the burned disc wasn't at the hi-def quality that the original files were because it's a DVD...I knew before I started that it would be that way.
-
Anyway, I'm jumping through the main video chapters (I can't specify when to put them, so they're just every four minutes) and about three-quarters of the way, I get to the intermission.
-
???
-
Then, I notice that the whole time for the first movie is 1 hour and 36 minutes...but it's actually 2 hours and 40 minutes! What's going on??
-
The other three videos on the disc are complete because I assume that they're all shorter.
-
So, that disc is useless (not a big deal...I bought a 50-pack so they're like 30¢ each).
-
So, I decide to burn just the main video (the 2 hour and 40 minute video) to a single-layer DVD and the process works...
-
...BUT THE SAME THING HAPPENED! :o
-
The final video on the disc is only 1 hour and 36 minutes long! WTH??
-
I looked through the original video file and it really is complete.
-
I hate when that happens.
-
So, I'm going to use the program that I use to burn Blu-ray discs and set it for a DVD.
-
Technical things are too technical for the likes of me.
-
It's a much more sophisticated program than the DVD program that I used for the first two discs.
-
I've made DVDs with this software before. It does have DVD settings, so I know that it'll work.
-
I just have to take the time to do it all again.
-
But it's necessary, so I will. :)
-
Technical things are too technical for the likes of me.
Me, too, so I just redo it and choose different options. ::)
