Is there a particular part that interests you more than the others?

Jules?

The Boatman?

Any role would be okay by me...I just want to be in the show.  There's also Mr./Lee Randolph.

In my earliest years we had a dog whose name I think was "Suzie", who I recall had puppies while she was with us and they got given to new homes. I was very young and I remember just about that much and no more. This was in Columbus, and one day the family doctor told us that the reason I was going through so many colds or allergy spells was from the dog hair, and we reluctantly gave Suzie to a new home and didn't have pets for a while.

After we'd moved and had been living in Florida for a couple of years, we thought that climate might be more conducive to having a dog again, and we adopted "Babe". That's who I consider my first real pet, and she was a wonderful family dog and companion. She was with us for some 7 or 8 years, from my junior high and high school years through my family's move back to Cincinnati while I was in school in Cleveland. On my visits home, she was always happier to see me than I could ever have imagined. She later developed a tumor that was giving her problems, and it was inoperable, and one night they called and told me that they'd had to say goodbye to her.

They eventually got another dog, but that was it for me until I'd moved to Connecticut and adopted my first cats from North Shore Animal League in 1990. And it's been cats ever since.

Anyone ever had jaggery? I tasted it today and I may have found a food too weird for me. It was in a bag of sesame balls.

Wikipedia on jaggery: Jaggery is a traditional non-centrifugal cane sugar consumed in the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and Africa. It is a concentrated product of cane juice and often date or palm sap without separation of the molasses and crystals, and can vary from golden brown to dark brown in colour.

Anyone ever had jaggery? I tasted it today and I may have found a food too weird for me. It was in a bag of sesame balls.

Wikipedia on jaggery: Jaggery is a traditional non-centrifugal cane sugar consumed in the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and Africa. It is a concentrated product of cane juice and often date or palm sap without separation of the molasses and crystals, and can vary from golden brown to dark brown in colour.

Had it??  I've never even heard of it.

It was very interesting. I had forgotten some of the horror stories of how black entertainers were treated in the 40s and 50s.  Lena Horn, being not only a singer, but a movie star, insisted on being allowed to stay at the hotel where she was performing. They allowed her to do that, but every morning they burned the sheets.
