Post by: elmore3003 on September 19, 2013, 05:24:04 AM: Good morning, all! I was asleep by midnight, awake around 4am, and at 7:00 I decided to get up and sit in a hot bath for a while. Given my limited movement ability, I'm feeling pretty good. i have physical therapy at 11. and I look forward to that. When I get home, I'll have my usual day of small pleasures: a lie down, some tv, some reading, a tiny bit of work for Susanna Moross, then I will order dinner from Artie's,watch some more CASTLE Season 5, and go to bed. I like being up at 7am, and I want to get this schedule back in my life. If tomorrow is like last Tuesday, I will be in great pain from the therapy tomorrow, and I do not look forward to that.

I'm so jealous!

I love Ray Bradbury. Somewhere I have a huge anthology of his stories. If I could dig it out, I'd read some of them again today. I do know where the DVD of MOBY DICK is, though, and its his screenplay , and I've never seen the film of SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES . . .

Christie:
Nashville

I don't recall Christie in this film.

She plays herself in a hilarious scene in which Karen Black can't image she's a movie star because of her hair isn't big enough. It's a very funny -- and to me -- memorable walk-on.

LOL....yes....the Hal Phillip Walker guy tells Karen that Julie has an Oscar and the look on Karen's face is priceless..... Elliott Gould is talked about as the guy who was married to Barbra Streisand...who sang "People"....LOL.....

Is it Gould, not Beatty? I'm getting old!

I was sure there was a MCCABE AND MRS MILLER reason for them

I now think you are right, DR JRand63. I love the film, but I can only watch it occasionally. My last time was around 2004. It's a film that is s wonderful that it hurts, and Ronee Blakly's Barbara Jean reminds me so much of my mother's youngest sister Lois.

I just checked IMDB and it was Gould!

And tomorrow, the two new iPhone models come out - I will get the 5S - I could never get the five because my plan wasn't up until last summer - I almost got one then but figured something new was coming this year and for the first time waited - and am glad I did.

So, I explained a BLT was bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo and a slice of American cheese on toasted whle wheat bread. The sandwich I got, which was quite tasty, was a BLT club, since it also included a lot of sliced turkey!

Many years ago, I had the pleasure of sitting next to and chatting with Ray Bradbury. It was at some dinner sponsored by a Sherlock Holmes group. I was there to talk about Basil Rathbone, but I don't recall what Bradbury's connection to the group was.

I'm so jealous!

I love Ray Bradbury. Somewhere I have a huge anthology of his stories. If I could dig it out, I'd read some of them again today. I do know where the DVD of MOBY DICK is, though, and its his screenplay , and I've never seen the film of SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES . . .

When I was in high school, I had a science fiction reading class (I think) and we watched that movie. I was riveted. At one point, someone behind me grabbed me as a joke and I jumped because I was so engrossed in the movie! I haven't seen it since then. Actually, I remember that moment more than the movie itself.

Happy birthday, Larry. And many blessings for the coming year.

Thanks, DR JohnG!

And I am back from physical therapy. I was not able to lie on my stomach this morning, so I've had a regression. Dammit!

I'm sorry but please don't let it get you down. Regressions are part of healing and PT. What was done once WILL be done again. Next time try not to be stressed that you can't do it again. It is important to take a deep breath, let is out and RELAX.

On the scale of 0 (best) to 99 (worst), I scored 12, and I was well aware while taking it that there were a couple of difficult areas.

I took one look at the test and blacked out. I do not have the patience at the moment.

Post by: bk on September 19, 2013, 03:21:08 PM: My replacement debit card still hasn't arrived so I called Paypal and had a very frustrating conversation with some yokel, then a nicer one with his supervisor. All they can tell me is that it "looks" like it went out on the 11th, but it may not have because the company they use to create the cards had some issue and it created a lot of delays - they apparently have isolated whatever the issue is and implemented a fix for whatever it is, but cards could take two to four MORE weeks to get to us, which means it might not arrive until October 11. In about three days a ton of online auto pays will fail now and I will not enter my Kritzerland debit card info on any of those sites, so I'm going to have to call each and every one and tell them what happened and if they don't actually do paypal payments then they're just going to have to wait until the new card comes and it's just tough beans if they don't like it. The only problematic one is the data charge for the iPad - but that's not till the first of the month. The AT&T people I'll call, DirecTV I'll call, and Time Warner I'll call. Everyone else can wait.
Title: Re: NOTES IN VARIOUS KEYS
Post by: bk on September 19, 2013, 03:26:05 PM: And now I'll just jog that frustration the hell out of me. I did have a wonderful conversation with Muse Margaret this morning about what will be the new book and she's really excited I'm doing story she loves that was once upon a time going to be a film. I told her some ideas and she absolutely adored them and it's turning into a completely different thing than the screenplay we were pitching. Completely new plot stuff, characters, and ideas. And she loves the title and I think it may be the best title I've ever come up with. I came up with the title fifteen years ago in thinking about a different idea I had. Then I appropriated it for the other idea but not as the title of it - but for the novel it is a perfect title and much better than the jokey title we had for the movie - that was also mine, but it was smart-assy and not what I want at all for what this book will be. I will be making notes now (have already started) and know exactly how I want to begin the book and what the first chapter will be and even what the first third of the book will be in terms of how to set the world and the characters, with the plot kicking in somewhere around chapter six - much like the Kritzer books. Color me excited and I'll begin, as I always do, January 1.

There are all sorts of things you can do with it. You can put pretty colored stones in the bottom and float flowers in it. You can use it to serve food or you can fill it with your favorite key chains.

Several co-workers said that I should bring it to work and fill it with candy. I was actually going to do that, but I forgot to get candy last night when I was at Costco...and then I forgot to bring the bowl to work today, anyway. ::)

I watched last night. I (mostly) agreed with the top six that they showed. I really would've liked the KriStef Brothers in the mix, but that's just me. Otherwise, I agree with the selection of, but was torn between, the top two. I really liked the winner and felt he should've been in the top two, but I really wanted the first runner up to win. He definitely will have a very successful career.

I think you would like the movie, and the book as well, of FAHRENHEIT 451. Both Julie Christie and Oskar Werner are wonderful in this, especially Werner.

There are changes from the book to the film that make each unique. I've mentioned before that Ray Bradbury used to stop in at the Bruin Theater, where Keith and I worked, while the movie was playing. He would go in, watch awhile and then leave. He was extremely happy with it.

Many years ago, I had the pleasure of sitting next to and chatting with Ray Bradbury. It was at some dinner sponsored by a Sherlock Holmes group. I was there to talk about Basil Rathbone, but I don't recall what Bradbury's connection to the group was.

I'm so jealous!

I love Ray Bradbury. Somewhere I have a huge anthology of his stories. If I could dig it out, I'd read some of them again today. I do know where the DVD of MOBY DICK is, though, and its his screenplay , and I've never seen the film of SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES . . .

I thought he was very good in JECKYLL AND HYDE, but then so did he.
