When I was looking for her and she suddenly stopped crying for help, I was truly frightened. While I know most of the people in the building, there are some I know are either a little crazy or outright insane. I worry that someone will grab a cat running wild in the halls are seriously injure them.  It was such a relief when Shane in 4C said there was a cat under his bed!

4 Facts about Queen Elizabeth II and the Jews
      1. Her Mother-in-Law Saved Jews During the Holocaust
When World War II broke out, Prince Philip volunteered for the British navy, and battled Nazis with distinction. Remaining in Athens, Princess Alice invited the Cohens, a Greek Jewish family with whom she and her husband had been friends, to hide in her house.

Princess Alice was brought in for questioning but refused to divulge the fact that she was sheltering Jews in her home. She returned to London in 1967 and died there in 1969. She requested that her remains be interred in Jerusalem, and in 1988 they were buried on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. She was declared Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial. Prince Philip traveled to Jerusalem for the ceremony, where he planted a tree in his mother’s memory.

      2. Queen Elizabeth II Hired Jewish Mohel to Circumcise Prince Charles
Queen Elizabeth II hired an Orthodox Jewish mohel to circumcise her son Prince Charles. Rabbi Jacob Snowman (1871-1959) was a London mohel of great renown.

      3. British Jews pray for the Queen every Shabbat
It’s a Jewish custom around the world to recite a prayer on Shabbat for their government leaders. In Britain, this means praying for the welfare of Queen Elizabeth II and her family. British Jews ask God to “preserve the Queen in life, guard her and deliver her from all sorrow.” The prayer goes on to ask that the Divine “put a spirit of wisdom into her heart and into the hearts of all her counsellors” too.

      4. She Departed from Royal Protocol to Listen to Holocaust Survivors
On January 27, 2005, the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, Queen Elizabeth hosted a group of Holocaust survivors in St. James’s Palace in the center of London.
Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks was present and later recounted: “When the time came for her to leave, she stayed. And stayed. One of her attendants said that he had never known her to linger so long after her scheduled departure. She gave each survivor - it was a large group - her focused, unhurried attention. She stood with each until they had finished telling their personal story."

The Alexandrov Red Army Chorus just sang Dark Eyes, aka Ochi Chorniya (phonetically spelled). Outside of My Man Godfrey, Shop Around the Corner and a few Fred and Ginger movies, I don’t think I had ever heard the song.

Now the chorus is singing Those Were the Days with the Leningrad Cowboys. This concert movie is a real trip.

This morning I had a long email to write and send out, which took way longer than I'd anticipated, but it got done.

Then I saw that there was just time enough for me to shower and get dressed and haul my ASS to a theater to play an audition. Just one audition. And that got done okay.

Now I'm back and answering responses to the long email, and ketchuping here. And the rest of the day is MINE. All MINE. I look forward to watching something really good tonight.

Which reminds me...

I had nothing for yesterday's TOD, but last night I ended up watching Dead of Night which I hadn't watched - at least not attentively - in years, and it was fantastic. Highly enjoyable.

The audio quality really sucks on that, though, and in a couple of different ways. I must hunt around and find out why. It's kind of an anomaly. It's a 1945 movie that sounds every bit as primitive as, say, an early 1930s one. There's distortion throughout, and a couple of musical passages sound almost "warped", like, fluctuating in speed. Bizarre.

With the entire rest of the day being MINE, all MINE, I walked out on the deck with the last remaining fistful of ground beef in the fridge, to grill a hamburger. I'd been out and about earlier, but I had no idea what a heavenly day it really was. We are in that time of year that, if it were like this all year, we'd be in heaven. Because there would be so damned little to have to deal with. And right there was my answer to the TOD. The temperature was around 85, but it felt like, I dunno, 80? And very very low humidity. Right now there's perfect equilibrium between indoors and outdoors. Bloody PERFECT. It doesn't get better than this.

So please excuse the messy deck and the second grill that doesn't work and the cleanup that's waiting to be done all around the place. I was out there in my shorts and bare feet and could literally have sat down and fallen asleep right there. It's a rare day. And, as such, heaven.

Finding this on Facebook this morning made me love the old broad even more!
4 Facts about Queen Elizabeth II and the Jews
      1. Her Mother-in-Law Saved Jews During the Holocaust
When World War II broke out, Prince Philip volunteered for the British navy, and battled Nazis with distinction. Remaining in Athens, Princess Alice invited the Cohens, a Greek Jewish family with whom she and her husband had been friends, to hide in her house.

Princess Alice was brought in for questioning but refused to divulge the fact that she was sheltering Jews in her home. She returned to London in 1967 and died there in 1969. She requested that her remains be interred in Jerusalem, and in 1988 they were buried on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. She was declared Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial. Prince Philip traveled to Jerusalem for the ceremony, where he planted a tree in his mother’s memory.

      2. Queen Elizabeth II Hired Jewish Mohel to Circumcise Prince Charles
Queen Elizabeth II hired an Orthodox Jewish mohel to circumcise her son Prince Charles. Rabbi Jacob Snowman (1871-1959) was a London mohel of great renown.

      3. British Jews pray for the Queen every Shabbat
It’s a Jewish custom around the world to recite a prayer on Shabbat for their government leaders. In Britain, this means praying for the welfare of Queen Elizabeth II and her family. British Jews ask God to “preserve the Queen in life, guard her and deliver her from all sorrow.” The prayer goes on to ask that the Divine “put a spirit of wisdom into her heart and into the hearts of all her counsellors” too.

      4. She Departed from Royal Protocol to Listen to Holocaust Survivors
On January 27, 2005, the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, Queen Elizabeth hosted a group of Holocaust survivors in St. James’s Palace in the center of London.
Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks was present and later recounted: “When the time came for her to leave, she stayed. And stayed. One of her attendants said that he had never known her to linger so long after her scheduled departure. She gave each survivor - it was a large group - her focused, unhurried attention. She stood with each until they had finished telling their personal story."

Wow.  That's amazing!

Had a lousy night of sleep. My kidneys kept getting me up every few hours. There was also a bout of sleeplessness during which I finished off Woody Allen’s latest book, Zero Gravity.

Did you like the book?

Not really. Too much of it seemed tired or recycled. But I didn’t hate it.

Got back at eleven-thirty, many telephonic conversations, doing a few things, and then watching the no-budget film The Devil's Hand, which ChasSmith pointed out many moons ago has a shot of my Picfair Theater at the end. The film came out in 1961 but because I identified what was playing the Picfair - I Want to Live -  I can date the week the film was shot at that location - January 28, 1959 is when that opened there. Interestingly, I saw it the week before at the Stadium on a double bill with The Big Country. Second feature at the Picfair was a Bardot film I never heard of, The Light Across the Street from 1956.

Title: Re: SLEAZE WATCHING
Post by: bk on September 10, 2022, 04:35:19 PM
In The Devil's Hand, they exit a building with a sign that says Belmont Hospital and the address 5907. As they walk to a car, that's when you're looking east toward Fairfax and see the Picfair. The "Belmont Hospital" was, in fact, Carthay Studios, where they shot the film's interiors. I was fascinated by Carthay Studios growing up and always wanted to go in there but never did - until the 1970s when I shot some commercial there. In the car, we're looking across Pico to the south and you can see a motel at 5917 - that building is still there, just not a motel anymore. However, the entire block that had Carthay Studios has been razed - one entire block - the studio itself was only on the corner.

With the entire rest of the day being MINE, all MINE, I walked out on the deck with the last remaining fistful of ground beef in the fridge, to grill a hamburger. I'd been out and about earlier, but I had no idea what a heavenly day it really was. We are in that time of year that, if it were like this all year, we'd be in heaven. Because there would be so damned little to have to deal with. And right there was my answer to the TOD. The temperature was around 85, but it felt like, I dunno, 80? And very very low humidity. Right now there's perfect equilibrium between indoors and outdoors. Bloody PERFECT. It doesn't get better than this.

So please excuse the messy deck and the second grill that doesn't work and the cleanup that's waiting to be done all around the place. I was out there in my shorts and bare feet and could literally have sat down and fallen asleep right there. It's a rare day. And, as such, heaven.

Because there would be so damned little to have to deal with. And right there was my answer to the TOD. The temperature was around 85, but it felt like, I dunno, 80? And very very low humidity. Right now there's perfect equilibrium between indoors and outdoors. Bloody PERFECT. It doesn't get better than this.

So please excuse the messy deck and the second grill that doesn't work and the cleanup that's waiting to be done all around the place. I was out there in my shorts and bare feet and could literally have sat down and fallen asleep right there. It's a rare day. And, as such, heaven.




That looks just about right for a HHW cocktail gathering.

There are some people (a Sondheim reference ;) ) who have been deprived of the bar known as Dilly.
