Good morning, all!

I slept rather well. I was having a long, involved dream about a revival if a show I had staged in 1976 of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown, which was going to Europe, perhaps under the sponsorship of the New York City Gay Men's Chorus since there were a lot of Chorus members in the dream, along with DR Ginny, Richard, Robert Kimball, and  Darrel Brown, who played the title role. There were also rehearsals for The Beggar's Opera, and it's all very confused. I do remember that at one pointI said, "Is that London already?" and DR Ginny said, "we haven't reached Newark yet."

So, enough of dreams. I'm off to Toyland and hoping to be back by noon.

Today would be John McGlinn’s 61st birthday.  He was a difficult man with much potential and too many personal demons. 

Listen to one of his recordings and wish him well.

I have no favorite Japanese monster movie.

I think all of them are stupid.

They're not like intelligent American monster movies like THE DEADLY MANTIS, THE MOLE PEOPLE or THE MONOLITH MONSTERS.

Morning, all!

Don't think I've ever seen a Japanese monster movie that wasn't being heckled by the Mystery Science Theater 3000 crew. My favorite was probably a Gamera one in which they threw in a couple of "Chorus Line" references.

Thursday morning greetings!

...I slept rather well. I was having a long, involved dream about a revival if a show I had staged in 1976 of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown, which was going to Europe, perhaps under the sponsorship of the New York City Gay Men's Chorus since there were a lot of Chorus members in the dream, along with DR Ginny, Richard, Robert Kimball, and  Darrel Brown, who played the title role.

...

DR Elmore, I hope I was along as your rehearsal assistant (Beggar's Opera) instead of Lucy, because I'm too old to be climbing up on that dog house!  We must have been flying from Dayton, because you have to go through Newark to get to London from there.

Anyway, my plan for today is to go to Target for some household items and the new Barbra Streisand CD.  Tonight my book group meets at Lynne's to discuss Katrina Kittle's The Blessings of the Animals.  She's a Dayton author who is speaking at AAUW's book brunch on October 11.

MR BK is going to be busy this week....lots of fun things to do.

We had a great show last night, and three of my Achilles/Achilles Son actor-mates were in attendance with the director of said show....nice to see them again.  We had a short talk-back with them.  They are in acting-theatre classes at DePauw and had spent the last week studying the play and doing scenes from it, so it was interesting for them to see it onstage.

I felt the SAME way about the new Godzilla....where was HE?  And what were those dumb monsters that nobody knew anything about?

The original GODZILLA is a favorite....from multiple television viewings. I also like:

GODZILLA vs MECHGODZILLA 2
GODZILLA vs. KING GHIDORAH
GODZILLA & MOTHRA: THE BATTLE FOR EARTH
GODZILLA vs BIOLLANTE
and many more of the 1980's/1990's films.

MOTHRA is my favorite other kaiju.

I also like the DAIMAGIN series....about a giant stone statue that comes to life and battles various villains and villagers.

TOD:


I feasted on Godzilla movies, and the like when I was a child. Still love 'em. Never thought they were stupid. Well, maybe some of the later ones were kind of silly.

The first Godzilla/Gojira is an amazing film, with an excellent message

Godzilla Vs. The Thing

Son of Godzilla

There are a smattering of Godzilla films from the 80s and 90s that I have not yet seen. Terror of Mecha-Godzilla I have never been able to get through.

Walmart has (or had) a ton of Godzilla DVDs and  Blu-Rays on a special rack for $5, $6, and $7 dollars...so I picked up a few of those I have not yet seen.

TOD Part 2:

Other Kaiju film favorites:

All three of the Daimajin movies are excellent, and so beautifully photographed

Rodan

Mothra

King Kong Escapes

Ghidrah The Three Headed Monster (which is technically a Godzilla film)

I enjoyed the new Godzilla film. It was great fun to watch at the theatre up on the big screen. It was worth the price of admission. That said, it is not probably one I would bother to watch again.

The only part of the movie that bothered me was at the end when Godzilla has saved mankind and is crashing his way through the city, heading back out to sea. All the humans characters are happy, and thankful and wishing Godzilla well...but I couldn't help but think of all the people he was crushing and killing as he smashed through those buildings, streets, etc to return to the sea! LOL!

I had missed the first 5 or 10 minutes, but loved every minute of the rest of the film. It remains a favorite film of mine to this day! I even had lunch once with the star of the filim!

I am having some bad luck today. :(

I hate looking for something that should be in a certain place.  I've spent over an hour trying to find my scrapbooking scissors which I used yesterday.  They are always in their box.  i remember yesterday being tired and putting them on my desk. I remember thinking I should put them away because i didn't want to lose them. I thought I put them in their box. But when I went to use them today they were not there. I looked everywhere around my desk, under my chair. I moved a lot of stuff just in case it fell in a drawer.

It is driving me crazy.  These are scissors that are super long (the length of 12X12 pager). I have never seen them anywhere. And I really wanted to scrapbook.

Also my bike is having problems. The handlebars have become loose and are moving up and down a bit.I tighten them and they seem fine. But today they don't seem to tighten properly. And I've been biking everyday. :(

It sort of takes a lot to put me in a bad mood. But I am in one now.

I'm thinking they showed Godzilla movies to us at school when I was young.  Maybe once or twice a year in the auditorium.   We watched them on TV too.  Don't remember which was which just that the words never matched the mouth movement

part of it was over $100 in roaming charges for Canada -- i am sure were were signed up for  plan that covered us  in the US  AND Canada - they say we have not had that plan in years  which means at some point it was changed without us knowing it

I grabbed this photo off of facebook so everyone might not be able to see it.  It is a photo of the Kings Fire from Tahoe.

This fire is growing exceptionally fast at over 2,000 acres a minute.  I have a friend very near it.

I went to two different Target stores last night and the second one that I went to only had the one copy that I got.  I've listened to both discs (the second disc only has five tracks, and only one new track) and really enjoyed it...even the Elvis song.  Even though I'm really losing interest in her doing nothing but ballads anymore, I thought that these were all well done.  I don't think that I'd lose interest as quickly in the long run if they were within a mix of various songs of differing tempos performed by various artists.

Just my 2˘.
