One of the special guests is Tom T. Hall, a Kentucky songwriter that Dad got to interview at some point way back when. It was one of his favorites. I think the other was bluegrass legend Bill Monroe.

Interesting.  What exactly did your father do that he was interviewing music legends?

One of the main people that takes care of our condo complex has been diagnosed with covid :(  I hope he will be ok.

The report is that he seems ok.  I don't know when he was tested that the results just came back today.  He became ill on Thanksgiving.  That explains why we didn't see him this week.

We think he is as old as we are, or just looks older as he is out in the sun all day.  He is very fit and active, and a super nice guy and hard worker.

He wrote for a magazine that went out to the customers of the rural electric companies in Kentucky. They did stories on just about anything, as long as it was Kentucky. When I was in college, I did two stories for them, too. One was on Rosemary Clooney, whom I interviewed five or six times.

I just finished watching The Shop Around the Corner. Lubitsch, Jimmy Stewart, Christmas. Just a beautiful movie. I didn't have a copy of it until recently. Glad I can watch it whenever.

While the movie was on, I put together my first gingerbread house. It looks OK, but the frosting was a mess; halfway through, it stopped going through the piping tool. So, I essentially stopped decorating and finished up spreading that stuff and topping it.

Starting to watch Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens. Interesting, but the first solo, the title song, is staged kind of like Adrienne Stieffel's solos in the Kritzerland shows -- and she would sing that gorgeous ballad 10 times better than the performer here.

On to the second piece. It's a new monologue, performed by Nathan Lane, and it's really good. It's about the current pandemic and the horrors of dying without being able to have your loved ones around you. But it's so poorly filmed that I can't watch it. I can only listen. The camera angle shoots up Lane's nose. If you ever wanted to take that journey, be my guest.

Vixmom, where you still looking for a dutch oven? The discount on this one is fairly amazing, somewhere in the neighborhood of 75% off.

That's pretty cool.  I almost want to get one just because it's 75% off! ;)

I saw this too late, item unavailable

Did a Ralph's run and I'm afraid the hoarders are at it again.  No paper towels at all.  What is it about paper towels that people think they have to hoard them?  Seriously.  Toilet paper I might understand, but paper towels???  As I arrived, someone was loading up their car with about 500 bucks of groceries, it looked like to me.  There were plenty of apples EXCEPT Honey Crisp - they were decimated.  And onions.  So, everyone needs to buy ONLY Honey Crisp (because they read about it here) and onions?  Thankfully, plenty of Diet Coke and the few other things I needed.
