Well, I want to buy an eSATA cable for one of my external hard drives and Fred Meyer doesn't sell them.  I don't think that I'd ever heard of it until I looked at the hard drive and saw that it was an option.  I did a little searching and found that it has a MUCH faster data transfer speed than USB2.  The hard drive doesn't have a USB3 output, but my computer has an eSATA input port.  Amazon sells the cables, but if the local Best Buy has one for close to what Amazon sells (about $12-15 on the low end), I'll get it.  We'll see.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

And on that note (E-natural), I'm outta here. 

Be back later.

Thanks for the history of the musical version of Woman of the Year, Fred. I never saw it. But I love a few of those songs, especially Sometimes a Day Goes By.

Watching another set of episodes of the Barbara Stanwyck Show. The first episode was really creepy with Vic Morrow as a killer on the lamb. He and Stanwyck end up handcuffed together and have a battle of wits.

Making about four ounces of spaghetti for my evening snack.  I really only had a sandwich and a little salad for lunch - no fries or onion rings.

Finished with my viewing.  A masterpiece.  And thinking about this movie being made today is inconceivable, actually, so badly would they muck it up.

It may not have been a masterpiece, but I have fond memories of seeing WOMAN OF THE YEAR on Broadway.  My mom flew out to visit me in New Jersey, and brought along my aunt (her sister). It was the last trip my aunt ever took, she was already unable to walk without a walker.

They wanted to see a big musical, and were thrilled at the idea of seeing Lauren Bacall onstage.

So, I dropped them off at The Palace, while I went to park the car down by the Port Authority.

By the time I got back to the theater, Miss Bacall had arrived at the theater and had stopped to chat with my mom and my aunt.

After the show (which they loved), I went to get the car, which took a while because I had to fight the crowd waiting to see Elizabeth Taylor, after her performance of LITTLE FOXES.

I got back to the theater to find my mom and aunt, with a securiy guard waiting in the business next door to the theater.

Apparently, while they were waiting in the theater for me, their now close and personal friend, Miss Bacall came out from backstage.      After chatting about the show together, Lauren (by this time) worried about them waiting outside for me.  So, she got one of the securiy guards to wait with them until I finally showed up.

So, they flew home with a great story about Lauren Bacall, and I had to be content with having seen the film legend from the balcony of the theater.

But, I also enjoyed WOMAN OF THE YEAR, especially the song “The Grass is Always Greener.”
