Did Cillaliz's trial start today? If so, I hope things are going well and justice is served.

Richard and I both survived our appointments today.  He has a newly-crowned tooth and I have my first session of Phase 2 cardiac rehab scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.  Dr. Jain indicated that my EKG looks much better and he explained that my heart damage was minimal.  Barring any "events" as I start rehab, I don't have to go back to him for 6 months.

I have to admit that the only mystery "series" that I've read has been the Andrea Hofstetter books...and I can't wait for the next one!


Andrea Hofstetter....is that Adriana's little sister?

Packages are addressed, and my amazing helper found some stuff I've been looking for for months - she's like a homing pigeon - she just pulled down a box from the large stack of boxes stored in the garage, and voila.

I then did some banking.  Of course, I've been printing out lots of orders, and One-Eyed Jacks is the new champ in terms of copies of a soundtrack ordered directly from Kritzerland.  If you want it, speak now or forever hold your piece or your peace or even your peas - by three the sold out sign is going up.

I'm pleased to announce that my memoir, MY FORTY-FIVE DAYS IN HOLLYWOOD AND HOW I ESCAPED ALIVE, is now available for order directly from the publisher, BearManor Media.




Forty-Five Days?


Yeah, I caught that earlier today.

It's MY FORTY FIVE YEARS (not DAYS) IN HOLLYWOOD AND HOW I ESCAPED ALIVE.

That's either a senior moment or what you get when you rush things.  Probably both.

Boy, did I feel like a putz!

I finished watching the 3rd season of MAD MEN last night, and though it still moves a bit slow for my taste, I am enjoying it.

SPOILERS AHEAD:

What kind of bothers me is what the leading characters did when they decided to quit and start their own firm.

In fact, unless the laws were different in the mid-1960s, their actions made little sense.

Not only would they be liable for both civil and criminal charges (i.e. for theft), but how can they still use the name of their old company (Cooper, Sterling, etc.) since they sold it?

My wife has been watching the 4th season, and she tells me that these issues are not dealt with, which I find strange.

Anybody want to weigh in on this?

I don't know if you'd call Lisa Gardner's books mysteries.  But since there are detectives who solve cases ... well I really like her D.D Warren series.

I saw a movie which I really liked (not sure if anybody here has seen it).I didn't think i'd love it. But it was just sitting at the library. I'm glad i had not read spoilers (and the box does not give anything away) cause i think it would have ruined the end for me (i just checked amazon.com now and the blurb there had a big spoiler).

The movie is REMEMBER ME with Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Raven (from LOST). Really good.

Congratulations on the sell-out, Bruce.

Now be prepared for all the "Waahs" from the usual folks in the usual places.


P.S.  Isn't it amazing how one particular poster at FSM knows everything about every score being issued....??!!!???

In my defense...I just copied the name from THIS post!!:

Quote from: JRand59 on August 23, 2010, 08:31:16 AM
I shall look forward to the new installment of the Andrea Hofstetter series.

My favorite Detective Series include:

The Thin Man
Mr Wong with Boris Karloff
Sherlock Holmes

Bookwise.....Mr Sherlock Holmes takes it, although I also like Ellery Queen and Miss Marple.
