I wonder why I didn't get that email. I get everything else from them.

I didn’t get it either, and I used to. This was announced on one of the forums.

BK and DR Elmore - is the John Yap thread on Facebook? I’ve been following a couple of them there, but haven’t seen your comments.

The following is a public service announcement:

Criterion’s biannual 24-hour 50%-off flash sale commences at noon eastern on the morrow.

www.criterion.com

Edit:  In-stock goods only, best to show up early.

Thanks for the heads-up, ChasSmith.  I think I'll be getting a couple of titles. :)

And now, it's time for me to head home. 

Until later.

TOD:

I'm just going to mention some favorite directors, as the list of movies would be too long:

Renoir
Truffaut
Rohmer
Clair
Varda
Melville
Resnais
Ozon
Tavernier
Carne'

and Marcel Pagnol, who didn't necessarily direct all of the movies that he wrote, but his stories are amazing.

I'll second Elmore's list of French composers, with Ravel being at the top. Listening to him now.

As for French film composers, I don't know how many I can name after Michel Legrand and Alexandre Desplat.

Another public service announcement pre the notes:

Hi all.  We're going to do a FLASH SALE for our entire in-print catalogue of wonderful CDs, Blu-rays, and DVDs - 30% off everything for 48 hours only starting now.  Because PayPal is not set up for discount codes, here's how we have to do this: 
You'll note whatever titles you want to purchase.   Then you'll go directly to paypal.com and click on "Send money."  You'll fill in the total price for your item or items - those are all listed on the specific item pages.  You'll fill in our paypal address, which is kritzerland at adelphia dot net (note the "net" not "com" and obviously you use @ and . for the "at" and "dot - be sure you're spelling everything correctly). 
Most items are $19.98 so those would be $14.  $23.98 items would be $17.00, and $29.98 items would be $21.  Then you add the shipping charge - for the US it's $4.50 for up to two CDs, it's $7.50 for three to six CDs, seven or more, it's priority shipping so $14.  International rates are: $15 for one or two CDs, $21.00 for three to four CDs, $28.00 for five to ten CDs, and $38.00 for eleven to fifteen CDs, and $48.00 for sixteen and above.   You must put the titles you are ordering in the invoice (there is always somewhere to leave a message for the seller).  And be sure your address is in the invoice - very important!  It's that simple. And - go!  www.kritzerland.com

If I didn't already have so many Kritzerland titles, I'd certainly get something. ;D

Well, I called Ann, sje came down, found the controls and turned up the chill factor on fridge and freezer.  I call our super Jeff, and he will call a service man.  I threw out several pounds of ground beef, ground pork, hot dogs, and sirloin tips and steak from Omaha steaks that I was going to use for vegetable beef soup.  I am very pissed about this. What a waste of money.


LOL!  I am sorry DR elmore but I thought you wrote vegetarian beef soup

Oh, I forgot to mention that a plane crashed across the street from my place over the weekend.

Who said moving to South Hill was going to be dull!

Did the pilot live?   Were there passengers?  What did the plane hit?
