As much as I love a good filet mignon, I would have had to pass on it, and focus of the seafood and the salads.  Maybe i could have taken a steak, wrapped it in a napkin, and sold it to a homeless person.

My schedule this fall and early winter has been so ridiculously insane that I had every episode of 9-1-1 going back to mid-September stacked up on my DVR, and we've been enjoying bingeing on them these past couple of nights. The rest will have to wait till a week from now when I am finally done with everything, but the relaxed ketchuping has been mighty enjoyable.

I believe that's about the time DR Elmore will be getting his second eye done. And about the time I'll finally be having the consultation for mine own eyes.

My friend Keith Geckeler, with whom I went to school from grades 1-12, is a minister in the San Francisco area. Recently, he shared with a storytellers group at his church a piece titled "I Grew Up" which is a series of one sentence vignettes from childhood.  It was on Zoom and someone recorded it and posted it on You Tube. Keith's wonderful portion, beginning at 36 minutes, catches everything about growing up in Middletown in the 1950s.

MR BK your favorite Mouseketeer Darlene Gillespie spent time in the slammer for a wire fraud she and her then husband were involved in...she also sued Walt Disney because he promised he would make her a star.....and she was eclipsed by Annette.  Darlene swore that all of Annette's fan mail came from members of her extended Italian family back in Utica.

Her sister Gina was in several movies - most famously as the young Blanche in Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?.....

My friend Keith Geckeler, with whom I went to school from grades 1-12, is a minister in the San Francisco area. Recently, he shared with a storytellers group at his church a piece titled "I Grew Up" which is a series of one sentence vignettes from childhood.  It was on Zoom and someone recorded it and posted it on You Tube. Keith's wonderful portion, beginning at 36 minutes, catches everything about growing up in Middletown in the 1950s.

Some idiot moron made a fake page for Square One, which was the name of the musical Sondheim was working on when he died. Saying the show was coming to Broadway in the fall of 2023 starring Nathan Lane and Bernadette Peters. Never mind that the thing looked completely amateur, this moron created accounts on Instagram and Twitter (welcome to Elon Musk's world - if you're on Twitter, get off) and EVERYONE but a handful of people believed it. Until it was proven to be just as fake as it looked and that was confirmed by Peters, the Sondheim estate, and everyone else.

Yesterday, I notocede in my bank account online that the company had charged me a thirtd time for $39.15. I tried to call them, got warned there was a long wait, so I emailed them. No response.

Just now a second charge has appeared on my bank account to the same company for $178+. So, I called my bank, closed my debit card, and sent the company a second email. not so nice as yesterday's inquiry, notifying them of a second bad charge and  telling them to go fuck themselves. For a major company, their customer service is shit.

She was a rich girl who falsely accused Annette of stealing her expensive birthday present - a necklace.

But in the last episode, she turned out to be nice....and the necklace was found in the piano.

She was a rich girl who falsely accused Annette of stealing her expensive birthday present - a necklace.

But in the last episode, she turned out to be nice....and the necklace was found in the piano.

Here is a story that I would like to share with my friends here at HHW.

My sister and her husband were married on December 9, 1972.  Earlier this year, their oldest daughter Amanda started to get a party together for them in celebration.  In the meantime - their daughter Emily and her husband had Paula & Larry's first grandbaby - daughter Audrey in August.  So after the baby was born - the date of the party was set for December 23.  That is so that Emily & Ryan & Audrey could travel to Indiana and be present for festivities.

End part one.
Title: Re: REMAKING A CLASSIC THE RIGHT WAY
Post by: Jrand74 on December 15, 2022, 02:07:47 PM
Larry - Paula's husband - has a brother named Alan.  He is a couple of years older.

Alan and his wife Jeanne were married on January 9, 1973.  It was a lovely wedding.

And now Alan has decided to celebrate his 50th wedding anniversary with a party on December 18.

There is of course overlapping of friends and acquaintances so that those folks who haven't seen each for many years - will have all met up and reminisced about EVERYTHING just 4 days before Larry & Paula's event.

Alan's reason - his sister in law (wife Jeanne's sister) is leaving for Florida and he wants her and her husband at the party.

End Part Two.
Title: Re: REMAKING A CLASSIC THE RIGHT WAY
Post by: Jrand74 on December 15, 2022, 02:10:12 PM
I think Alan is an ass.

I have thought so before - but this is just further confirmation.

The End.

P.S. I am NOT invited to the first party even though I coordinated the wedding and helped with the reception which turned out very nice. Not that I would even consider going.

She was a rich girl who falsely accused Annette of stealing her expensive birthday present - a necklace.

But in the last episode, she turned out to be nice....and the necklace was found in the piano.
