(((((Elmore))))) I am glad Uncle Bob's ordeal is over and hope he didn't suffer.

He clearly went very quickly between my cousin Sue's visit around 6 pm and 10:30 last night, so I thank you all for your vibes. I'm sure they were a comfort and an aid for a swift passing. It's all I could have asked for him.
DR GINNY for a moment, I thought I read you were taking your mother to the Dorothy Lamour Market.

For a very interesting and thought-provoking take on this question, DR Dan (the Man), I recommend the last 15 pages of Mary Doria Russell's Dreamers of the Day. Well, I recommend the whole book, which I finished yesterday, but it concludes with an imaginative portrayal of the afterlife.
And the word of the day is: MATUTINAL!
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.

RANDOM HARVEST is also a favorite of mine.
BK, halfway point. It's as addictive as potato chips. Having a great time.
And now...
I need to take a good hour or so to get ready for my trip down to DC this weekend. Not only will there be a belated birthday celebration for my father - his party got snowed out at the end of January - but I'll also be taking part in a project/concert that may be familiar to the DRs of this site in one way or another:

*Although, I think we're now down to a 23-piece orchestra...

So much for historical accuracy. I'm glad I got out when I did.

Larry, I'm glad that Uncle Bob's passing was as you had hoped. As you said, that's really all you can ask for.
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.
They are no doubt africanized bees.

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!
Please, God, heal DR MBarnum's erotomania.

.. I went ahead and took THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG off the show and watched it again in Blu-ray. A lovely, tuneful animated film. It's joyous to see and hear in high def video and audio.
While I ate lunch, I watched last night's PROJECT RUNWAY.
Now, I DESPISE team competitions. I have said that before and will continue to say it every time PR decides to do one. They're never fair (though this one seemed more equitable than most have been in the past), and the person who lost deserved to lose. The team who won also did very good work with two striking pieces.
I would like to have seen more of the garment in one of the lower ranked teams, the one that the judges all liked. Didn't really get a chance to see it from all angles long enough to tell about its craftsmanship. It was quite striking at a glance (but SO similar to what this designer has been doing all season).

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

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.
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.
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.....
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.
DR George re: LAST NIGHT'S FLASHFORWARD

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). ;)

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 weather was sooooooo nice that when I got off work I mowed the lawn. Now I have showered and eaten some friend eggs. I a moment
Someone please tell me again where to find my Fan pages on Facebook.
My schedule is all screwed up. I had wanted to go to the Library of Congress on March 29-30 to finish up my Herbert photocopying and I have to be at a meeting on March 30 at 2 pm! Damn it to hell. I need at least two days to achieve what I need to accomplish and I wanted to do the work while the people I never want to see again are in Manhattan recording. Damn, damn, damn!
Thank you Ginny. It may not have been so good for my therapist, I talked almost the entire time ;D I only had to breathe deeply, or hold my breath, into the pain a few times. Sometimes when he releases a stretch I have more pain as he moves my arm back. He commented I didn't flinch or groan once during the releases :)
Well, this is interesting:
