Good morning, all! I am truly soory I missed Chat last night, but it sounds is if others were thinking yesterday was one more Sunday.
DRS Noel and Joy, a very happy anniversary wish from this corner!
DRJane, no, dear lady, it was not squiring you about Gotham that put me under the weather. I think there is bear, ursa major or minor, in my genes. I want to hibernate for a bit when it turns cold and I was feeling hybernatorial, possibly a bit coming-cold-or-influenza, all day Sunday and Monday. I'm feeliong much berter today.
DRJose, please tell Baayork hello for me. I haven't seen her since I left the Drama Book Shop.
TOD: I still laugh out loud at Bette Midler's RUTHLESS PEOPLE, and it's one of my favorite fims. I think Joe Orton's LOOT and WHAT THE BUTLER SAW are brilliant: half the laughs come from the outrageous text and the other half from the juxtaposition of violence and lunacy. Of current material, THE PRODUCERS would have to top my list, a constant source of low humor and hijinx, much funnier than its film source. I still think THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST is the greatest comedy ever, and every time Mrs Hardcastle opens her mouth in SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER I fall down laughing.
