First post after BK
T.O.D.
Actually, I did have the opportunity to meet the one author I would have wanted to meet. In fact, he was a guest in my home.
I'm talking about W.R. Burnett, author of LITTLE CAESAR, HIGH SIERRA, THE ASPHALT JUNGLE, etc.
Back in the 1970s, when I was writing my film-oriented books, I did a phone interview with him on, I believe, HIGH SIERRA. He mentioned that he hadn't seen LITTLE CAESAR and the original SCARFACE, another film he'd written, for years. I happened to have 16mm prints of both films, so I invited to come to my home for a screening. He brought his son, and it was a very memorable evening.
A friend at church died a couple of days ago, leaving behind his wife and five daughters. His last night included a visit from some Star Wars fans. Here’s the story

If I could speak French more fluently, I’d love to have a few dozen oysters and then dinner with Balzac. He may not be my absolute favorite but he could enjoy a great dinner with the best of them.

Vibes of comfort for Tracy.
I am a grumpy bear this morning. Last night the pain in my tooth became worse and despite taking painkillers all day I had a terrible time sleeping. The tooth HURTS. I phoned the dentist on his emergency number. He's out of town, but may be back later today. We're trying to work something out. I'm waiting for him to call back. I'm also not very coherent.

DR GINNY my NBC affiliate is showing football - finals for the World Series or something like that......
3.5 earthquake near San Antonio.....those symphony musicians must really be angry!
What a strange day. Most of it has been spent in ways I don’t even quite remember clearly. But the day has passed.

I just listened to the sample songs for LEVI on the Kritzerland website.
Looking forward to hearing the entire score.
Unlike so many shows in recent years (including HAMILTON), this sounds like my kind of musical (i.e. one where you leave the theater actually humming the songs).
The dentist said that the crackdown on opioid use means that he can no longer call in prescriptions for painkillers. He suggested I try 2 Advil with 2 Tylenol--at the same time. I heard of this a few months ago, but didn't have a serious toothache then. Since I prefer to start with a conservative dose I took one of each and surprise! Relief! None of this stuff is good for your stomach, but I certainly prefer OTC meds. I hope to get some sleep tonight.
He still needs to see me, which I'm hoping is tomorrow afternoon.
Fred, I enjoyed your alternate LET'S GO FLY A KITE lyrics, too. I've just been wrapped up in dental issues.
Jerry Van Dyke passed away. He was 86.

I don't like Advil either and didn't know you could safely take it with Tylenol. Thank goodness you have relief, and with half the dosage which I too would have begun with.
Then Vixdad and I watched Harry Potter movies 6, 7 and 8
Here she is singing Romanza from Maria la O. Some guy named Domingo seems to be conducting.

Well, the symphony seems saved for another week. The mayor addressed the 1,200 we had tonight before the concert started and said something would be worked out. I hope. Anyway, it seems to be back on, at least on a week-by-week basis.

First I've heard of it. Didn't feel a thing.
Her very kind neighbors came after the storm on Thursday and cleared her drive and walkway with their snowblower but the town is still plowing the side streets ( where my mom lives) and there was 3 feet of ice loves and snow blocking the drive
They did such a marvelous job of recreating the Harry Potter world at Universal that when we watch the movies now we feel as if it's been filmed in a locale with which we're familiar, like seeing a movie shot on Long Island or Manhattan
I do not miss shoveling driveways. After Ashland, Keith really doesn't since my should can't even help anymore.

Tracy's sister passed away this morning.
I can't say I am crazy about the flavor of Sambucol, but I am sure I have cooked worse.

What flavor did you get?

My condolences to her family.

I didn’t know there was a choice. Black elderberry was the only kind I saw.
I first met Tracy’s father 52 years ago, when we did THE MUSIC MAN together.
Nor, when I met Tracy, I had no idea that her mother was one of my co-workers at the Welfare Office.
George, are you going to go see AMERICAN IDIOT at Lakewood Playhouse?
George, are you going to go see AMERICAN IDIOT at Lakewood Playhouse?
I really want to. At least one friend of mine is in it.
