I had not seen this version before. Mesmerizing!

I had a friend in college who wanted to write a musical based on A PLACE IN THE SUN (he hadn't read the novel) called "In A Rowboat With You."
Greetings from Toyland! Everything is packed, sealed and ready to go.
"In A Rowboat With You."
In keeping with the nostalgic theme of the past few days -
bk, have you seen this site? http://www.whatwasthere.com/browse.aspx#!/ll/34.0522342,-118.2436849/zoom/12/ (http://www.whatwasthere.com/browse.aspx#!/ll/34.0522342,-118.2436849/zoom/12/)
Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of boiled blood, namely mine, and now it is time for you to post until the boiled cows come home.
Genius!

"In A Rowboat With You."
The "You" referring to Tallulah Bankhead, of course. :)
Yes...until she's ready to depart...and then what happens?
I have to work. Bummer. I'd rather just read news reports.

Ummm.... She has to call ROTO-ROOTER?
I loved "A Place in the Sun," but I was not as big a fan of "An American Tragedy," which we had to read in 11th grade. I think it was the only book assigned to us in high school that I did not finish. I even finished "Intruder in the Dust," which turned me off Faulkner for 20 years. I only read the first 600 or so pages of "Tragedy" and should have read the last 200 after making that much effort, but I completely lost interest.
Which brings to my Ask BK question: Were there any assigned books you didn't finish in high school? Or at least ones that stick out?
DR BK
TOD:
What type of movies do you prefer, Older black and white or more current ones?

Glad the court did the right thing, but I have to tell you that today is another day I will go nowhere near Facebook.

Silas Marner - sorry, couldn't do it.
Speaking of bikes, I want one of these:

Hello Everyone:You gots good taste, DR Kate.
DR BK, I loved both A Place in the Sun and Strangers on a train!
The only COLORIZED movie I have seen that I have enjoyed is the colorized version of the original SHE.....
Mu question for ASK BK day.....what are your favorite fresh flowers to have in your house? Do you prefer a bouquet of one flower or an assortment of blossoms?
Thanks John G., but I guess we don't agree on Silas Marner.
Genius!

It's a great day America!!!
Thank You Edie Windsor, an American hero!
Glad the court did the right thing, but I have to tell you that today is another day I will go nowhere near Facebook.
And a very happy birthday to dear reader Sandra - it would have been in the notes had it been in the calendar.
I hope you feel better very soon, DR Vixmom. Although with that schedule you are keeping, I don't see how it is possible! :P

We wish we had a list of the cast out while we watched DJANGO. There were so many familiar faces we weren't sure why until after the movie. It would have been nice to pay more attention to a few of the faces such as Russ Tamblyn and Lee Horsley.
Silas Marner is George Eliot's Masterpiece.
Yes it is hard to get through, but well worth it.
The lessons in this book are immeasurable!!

It just came in at the library and I will watch it someone later this week. I will likely do what you suggest.
Getting caught up on school work today, but my allergies have been bothering me so much that I can't concentrate enough. Still six pages written about another six to go.
From Bruce:QuoteAnd a very happy birthday to dear reader Sandra - it would have been in the notes had it been in the calendar.
I'm confused because the calendar says her birthday is on April 22nd.
Yes, her birthday is in April.
I'm sorry I didn't see your birthday wishes to her last night, BK. I quit reading last night when the poop jokes started.
Big Brother starts tonight. Anybody watching?
Yes, her birthday is in April.

I was in the doctor's office when I saw the news. No one else was paying attention to such an important moment in history.
Because someone said it was yesterday - do you think I just pulled it out of thin air?
Okay, someone is trying to gaslight me - I just went back two days - of course, Laura made a whopping two posts the day before and a few yesterday with the word birthday not appearing in them - but I saw the words birthday and Sandra in close proximity - why else would I have made the post I did otherwise.
I haven't had roses that smell like roses in many years.
I hate when I can't figure out why I have information in my head that I can't prove is correct or figure out why it is wrong.
I just wish it wasn't 5 to 4.

Or remember who told me said information...that happens to me all the time. :P
She did have two wisdom teeth removed on Monday, and she is having a tough recovery.
DR Cilla thanks for the link on the Red Panda.Your welcome. I knew you'd want to see good news
Over the years I have flopped down on sidewalks and other various locations.
I'll share more about that when appropriate.

Gee, no wonder people thought you might be drunk! ;D
Just stopping by to say good evening to everyone. It's a busy week for me, with almost as much study prep as Kritzerland weeks. I'll share more about that when appropriate.
Hope everyone's been having a wonderful day.
Bruce I said I noticed you had been added to the the Hamilton High Friends page. I'm wondering if you requested this invite or if Jackie (a mutual FB friend of ours) simply added you.
I just discovered a new use for my old hoodie...

Well, I finished my paper, all 21 pages of it. And my allergies are ready to kill me. So, I'm taking a Benedryl and will hopefully soon slip into the arms of Morpheus.
OUCH! Dang bees.

Yes, nice new avatar DR MATTHEW....as was pointed out last night.
Where in tarnation IS everyone?
Happy birthday to Sandra, she of infinite wisdom and no wisdom teeth. I had all four of my wisdom teeth out when I just turned eighteen. It wasn't pleasant as I recall.
