Well, you've read the notes, the notes had the luck of the draw, and now it is time for you to post until the lucky cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: METICULOUS!
-
Good morning, all!
-
I was up and down too many times again last night, and after 4:00 Stella became a major pain in my butt. Some nights she's very good and just wants to sleep next to me. Last night she kept burying her head in my hand for pets, when she wasn't walking all over me. Thatch dropped by to sleep for a bit before running off to other adventures, and Annabelle, who has abandoned sleeping on my pillow, has moved back up to her bookcase aerie. When it got too col, she jumped back down to burrow under the blankets and sleep next to me for warmth. I see a nap in my future today.

Good morning.

Well, this morning I want the shipping company Chewy.com uses to go go bankrupt and fold. I took the recyclables to the basement and then stopped on the first floor to pick up packages. I had a couple of Amazon deliveries, and two Chewy.com carton, one containing kitty treats and the other containing a 13 lb bag of Meow Mix and a carton of Fancy Feast grilled tuna. The sonofabitch who delivered them left them not where most packages are dropped off by the mailboxes but just inside the front door at the foot of five steps up to the lobby.
So I had to attempt to lug two cartons up five steps, maintain my balance, and forget about the painful hell on my legs. The larger, heavier carton was open at one end and a second carton of Fancy Feast cans was missing. I am not happy since this is about the fourth or fifth shipment in a row that has arrived looking as though it's been resealed and missing items. Chewy/cp, has been great and speedy ion shipping replacements at no charge, but this is getting ridiculous.

My horoscope says I’m going to receive plural marriage proposals today. So, wish me luck. Maybe I’ll even know the people.
-
I've stopped using Petco because their customer service dept. employs too many ladies for whom English is a second or third language, and several orders were screwed up because I frankly didn't understand a thing they said. I stopped using Amazon because their prices are getting ridiculously high, often twice the amount Chewy.com charges.

Here’s a great story for linguists on covid’s impact on the German language.

Just don't agree to help any Nigerians obtain the $20 million held in escrow.

Elmore, what are the prices from Walmart.com or Target.com? Any better?

You’re telling me to be picky? At my age?

YOUR age?

I shall do a bit of cooking in a moment.
I want to watch the IOWA basketball game at noon. And then we have a ZOOM board meeting which I expect to be full of folks with opinions based on nothing.....I am going to try to be quiet....
But I don't have much of an expectation of my effort....

Yesterday we were sent a PDF of the Profit/Loss and one of the Bank Balances.
Neither of these opened for me. The PDF reader said I needed to upload a "character reader" because the PDFs contained Asian characters......I emailed Mr Prez and the accountant who both declared the PDFs were fine as they were.....
I went back opened January and February PDFs and they were fine. Maybe we should say sayonara to somebody.
-
I was looking for my immersion blender today. It was nowhere to be found.
But that may be because I don't own one.
-
Elmore, what are the prices from Walmart.com or Target.com? Any better?
I haven't done any further comparison shopping. I avoid Walmart and I never thought of Target.
-
I really like Chewy.com and their customer service dept. is fantastic.
-
Good morning, all.
-
Good morning!
-
Good morning, everyone.
-
I do not have an immersion blender. As a matter of fact, I had never heard that term until today!
-
Chewy.com is a standout in this sorry world. We buy quite a bit at stores, but I think every order from there has gotten here the next day, and their customer service is great if you need it.
Of course deliveries are no problem because it's just to a house, so no lobby or other public area complications.
-
I was up again in the night, so when I finally did fall asleep again, I slept a bit later into the morning than normal.
-
Thanks for that link, DR John G. So bad it's good. That poor hapless young woman.
-
Yesterday was my first day of true awareness of the term immersion blender.
I don't have one, but I might go looking for it anyway in a show of solidarity.

For those who enjoyed "The Mistake Waltz," here is the full half-hour ballet it's excerpted from, "The Concert."

If you like to make soups, owning an immersion blender is kind of handy.

Loved the discussion of poker in the notes.
I used to love playing it now and then. In theory, I still do, but it's probably been fifteen years or more since I've bothered playing it for the very reason BK describes, the predominance of Texas Hold-em and whatever endless variations there are.
What I loved was "neighborhood poker", just settling in for an evening of "dealer's choice" which would consist of draw and stud poker, of both the five- and seven-card varieties, with only a few permitted variations just for fun so the evening wouldn't get totally crazy. I was okay at it, not great, and I never had the nerve to sit down at it in a casino. But it's an amazing game.
In the mid-1990s I was attending a monthly Friday-night game with other friends at author Susan Brownmiller's apartment in the Village. The game, the food, drink, and camaraderie were wonderful. Eventually, people began introducing the newly popular Hold-Em games, and little by little, they became "it". For me, games that lasted beyond one hand and required mucho strategizing, ceased to be fun. But I was also getting involved in musical theater and other things up here, so I reluctantly dropped out. Some of the other folks were also getting into mah-jongg (sp?), of which I know nothing, and those evenings were morphing into that.
That's fascinating, though, about the L.A.-area clubs. I was around them a few times and walked through them in the course of doing other things with friends (maybe we ate there?), but when it came to poker, I never ventured outside the comfort level of a friend's house or apartment.

What better way to get immersed in a topic than at HHW.

You asked for it. Now with a barbershop quartet.

You can still hear her. Though they try.

I found mine about 15 years at Big Lots for the low, low price of $10. It has served me faithfully since. You do have to be careful and observant so you don't burn the motor out trying to blend a rock of undercooked potato.

And, yes, as Singdaw said, they are great with soup.

I love Chewy.com! They just replaced my entire order at no charge, even though I'm only missing the 24 cans of tuna. morsels.

I too enjoyed the Poker Notes.

There are several versions of this to enjoy....with various degrees of success.

Hello Everyone! the latest Broadway Radio Show is now up on the site. This time I am chatting with producer/writer Jennifer Ashley Tepper about the latest volume in her wonderful series of books The Untold Stories of Broadway! Lots of fascinating, fun stuff. Check it out and I highly recommend the books -- they make for great reading for any Broadway fan!

Here's the book trailer for my stage play, CHARLTON HESTON. It's available in paperback and Kindle editions via Amazon.

DR DRUXY have you seen an increase in productions of your One-Person plays or do you expect one as theaters begin to open?
-
You asked for it.
Did I? :D
-
Back from a good walk.
-
This is the period we call "Fool's Spring."
The cold is sure to return.
-
In today's Notes, we had a waning warning. As it were.
-
bk, did you ever have this amongst your collectibles>
-
I am back from my errands. Got my new glasses. They will take some getting used to.
-
I also picked up a metal mission-style table for the patio to hold the soon-to-arrive umbrella in place.
It looks really nice, but I had to assemble it myself. Lots of expletives were uttered during the process. And somehow it did not look like something a vision-impaired put together.
-
This is the period we call "Fool's Spring."
The cold is sure to return.
I was a fool, changed into a warmer top but forgot to put my warm waterproof pants on before walking.
-
At least the rain stopped and the sun came out before I was completely soaked. My quick drying pants dried quickly in the sun.
-
Thanks to Parallax View, I checked All the President's Men out of the library. Starting to watch it. Haven't seen it in decades.
-
Then the wind picked up, the sun went away, and it began lightly raining as we were headed home.
-
Thanks to Parallax View, I checked All the President's Men out of the library. Starting to watch it. Haven't seen it in decades.
Did you ever see Executive Action?
-
I'm up, I'm up - about six hours of sleep - woke up at eleven-thirty.
-
I had no idea that the Dropbox on this computer kept all those files on my hard drive. No wonder I'm almost out of space. So, I Googled and it said to enable selective sync and then deselect all the folders that I'm not using - that removes them from the hard drive and makes them accessible online only at dropbox.com, which is fine. I did a few last night and that seemed to make no difference whatsoever, but I just did it for all the Kritzerland live shows save for the upcoming one and that should clear about forty or fifty gigs of space. If it doesn't, then I'll call them and see what I'm doing wrong. But it's currently resyncing about seven hundred files. Those Kritzerland Live shows take up huge room, they're all around twenty gigs.
-
In a little while, I'll shoot the Indiegogo video and then I may make the barbecue thing, since I believe it's defrosted completely by now.

Doesn't sound familiar. I guess I should, right?

I love Chewy. I swear the last time I ordered from them, the delivery came before I even hit the SEND button. Also, the boxes have always been packed securely, although I wish they didn't use sheets and sheets of brown paper to pad the inside of the box.
-
Oh My God.
We do have an immersion blender. Maybe not the best one, but who knows. Because guess what?
I just checked with the 'mates, and:
We'll have to look for it.

Absolutely.
I haven't watched them all yet, but you'll find it mentioned in at least one of the extras on the Criterion disc.
-
I was looking for my immersion blender today. It was nowhere to be found.
But that may be because I don't own one.
I took my mother's immersion blender, when she passed away. She used it to stir those protein shakes, etc. I am not sure that I packed it when I moved.

I shall do a bit of cooking in a moment.
I want to watch the IOWA basketball game at noon. And then we have a ZOOM board meeting which I expect to be full of folks with opinions based on nothing.....I am going to try to be quiet....
Wow! You are on the board of directors of ZOOM!

And they're apparently very opinionated.
-
Good Afternoon - I guess I'll look into chewy.com for the boys. Usually, it's pretty simple, they both eat Purina Lamb and Rice kibble, no wet food, and dog treats from Trader Joes. Maybe we'll change? In other news, well - there isn't any other news. My iCloud on this computer still refuses to function. So, I'm troubleshooting again ... all day....
-
iCloud vibes!
-
DR DRUXY have you seen an increase in productions of your One-Person plays or do you expect one as theaters begin to open?
The sales of my plays (in paperback, on Kindle and on audio) have skyrocketed since COVID, but productions have virtually disappeared.
I do have a production of ORSON WELLES set for next month in Arizona. They've already paid the royalty, so I know they are going to do it.
-
America's Test Kitchen says that the immersion blender to buy is the Braun Multiquick 5 Hand Blender. For what it's worth.
Which is apparently about $60.
-
Inaugurated one of the new bowls with a new soup, Spiced Bean and Sausage. It called for kidney beans, but I used aduki, which are smaller.
-
DR John G., have you ever used Rancho Gordo beans? Their subscription service apparently has a several-year waiting list.
-
I have never owned an immersion blender.
-
Nor have I DR LAURA, but now I know what it is.
-
DR DRUXY that's interesting.
-
I like chunky soups, so I probably wouldn't use one anyway.
-
Well I'm not exactly a member of the board of ZOOM.....I'm just a subscriber.....it was the theatre board that was meeting.....we are tentatively moving ahead with our season for 2021.
-
I just watched MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM and I liked it a lot.
Of course after all of those weeks doing the play, I kept hearing those lines said by my cast mates....but it's a good movie and should be at least nominated for several Academy Awards....it may have won some Golden Globes.....I didn't check.
The movie adds a coda that is a gag from "Dreamgirls" - but it works.....
-
DR John G., have you ever used Rancho Gordo beans? Their subscription service apparently has a several-year waiting list.
Nope. Don't know them.
I've been looking for anasazi beans at a decent price. If I go to the Valley, I can get them for $1 a bag. On Amazon, they want something like $17 for the same bag.
-
I've been called gordo before. Too many times.
-
DR John G.,
Have you every watched Glen and Friends on Youtube? On Sundays he cooks something from a really OLD cookbook.
-
Today it was an apple cake from 1923.
-
I have never owned an immersion blender.
I only used mine a few times.
-
Nor have I DR LAURA, but now I know what it is.
It was after I looked it up that I realized I have, or used to have one.
-
Today it was an apple cake from 1923.
Did it look good?
-
DR John G.,
Have you every watched Glen and Friends on Youtube? On Sundays he cooks something from a really OLD cookbook.
I never have. Sounds like fun. Thanks for the recommendation.
-
Four!
-
Had a good Zoom Kritzerland rehearsal, picked up a package, and am just about to partake of the barbecue that came a few days ago. Smells great.
-
What is so sad about All the President's Men is the way the lies keep proliferating when people are faced with the truth. It was the beginning of the "it's not true if we don't like it" era we live in.
-
I didn't have to see John McMartin's face to realize he's in this movie. I heard that voice and thought, "Benjamin Stone!"
-
I am glad I switched to my rain pants to walk this afternoon. Still I came in sooner than I planned after it began raining. I was already pretty soaked by the time I reached home. It was nothing compared to what hit shortly after I was inside, a mix of hard rain and hail.
-
Ate the barbecue. The chopped meat was pretty good - I ended up putting it on hamburger buns for two sandwiches. Burnt ends - only had three, not really my thing. The beans were weird but pretty good. I have a large portion to my neighbor in the back and Grant took 90% of the burnt ends.
-
Not sure if I'm in the mood for Ma Rainey's - may have to wait until Tuesday.

Monday is the birthday of actress CLAIRE TREVOR, who just happens to be the newest subject in THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS collection of stage plays.
The late actress appeared in many film classics, including DEAD END, STAGECOACH, KEY LARGO, for which she won an Academy Award, and THE HIGH AND THE MIGHTY.
I was lucky enough to know her and her husband, Milton Bren. In fact, I interviewed her at her Newport Beach home in 1974 for CORONET magazine.
CLAIRE TREVOR, my one-woman stage play, is available in paperback and Kindle editions via Amazon and other booksellers. Performance rights are available.

Found a copy of this 1929 cookbook in my collection. It seems to be a first edition and in near mint condition.
The cover is offensive, to be sure, and the little I read inside it was appalling. It's a cookbook featuring black cooks' recipes as shared by a very entitled white employer. You know, the type that could never remember the real name of the cook, so she called them all Mandy.
Anyway, a copy of this is going for $350 online. I doubt I'd get a tenth of that.

I got one about 20 years ago, but didn't use it much at all, so I brought it to work so the my friend Margo (we originally met at work) could use it for her then meal-replacement-shakes for lunches, but then her position was eliminated, but I forgot about it. I finally noticed that it was still at work a couple of years ago and brought it home.

This does not feel like a Sunday evening, this feels like a Saturday evening. And yet tomorrow will be Monday so it must be a Sunday evening.

Finished the Mommie Dearest Diaries.

Well, I finally watched The Big Lebowski.

A co-worker had been talking about it couple of years ago, and he loaned me his DVD.
-
I had it for more than a year and never watched it. ::)

I finally returned it to him and bought my own Blu-ray back in October.

And tonight, I finally watched it.

Good night, Jane.

After watching The Big Lebowski, I watched Bette Midler's The Showgirl Must Go On.
-
That was filmed 11 years ago, and she still had a lot of energy...unless she was joking about not having any. ;)
-
The local news just showed a 103 year-old man getting his CoVid-19 vaccination. Not only did he survive the 1908 flu pandemic, but he also survived the Holocaust. They interviewed him briefly. He was sharper and far more articulate than I am at 70. He credits his good health and his long life to his wife.

It's never been released on any US home video format, just in England.

It was only shown on HBO.

I guess there are some Emmy For Your Consideration screeners, but nothing officially for sale.
