Well, you've read the notes, the notes went back to the eighth grade where they belong, and now it is time for you to post until the eighth grade cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: INTERPOLATE!
-
Good morning, friends.
-
Thanks for the video link, DR George. I'll have to make time to watch the whole thing.
-
Glad you survived opening night!
-
DR Ron Pulliam - that gal really makes me want to purchase some Indiana Farm Bureau insurance!
-
I could really go for a plate of old-school squash and onions right about now.
-
Or this:
-
Or a nice fluffy lemon roll.
-
Good morning, all!
-
It was too chilly to get out of bed this morning, and I needed an excuse to sleep in.
-
It's time for a new computer. I had to reboot this one three times yesterday.
-
Good news about your opening night, DR George! How was the audience response?
-
I loved The List of Adrian Messenger, but I remember almost nothing about it now. I do remember that I saw it at the long-gone Paramount Theater in middletown, OH.
-
Last night I finished off the first season of The Goes Wrong Show, by the creators of The Play That Goes Wrong, Peter Pan Goes Wrong, and A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong. It contains six plays performed by the ever-bumbling Cornley Polytechnic Dramatic Society. Severa; were hit or miss, but the horror play, the Victorian melodrama, and the murder trial play were very funny, with outrageous puns and doubles entendres, slapstick, pratfalls, and over-the-top emoting that I found very funny.

I hope to finish ballet No. 19 of Act One today. The goal for the long weekend is to finish another number as well.

Oh fur cute...

Working vibes for DR ELMORE.

The sun is shining and I am waiting for the Xfinity man to arrive....to do whatever....

I missed the first part of the Mary Tyler Moore documentary.....when i started it, the DVD show had just ended and everyone was moving on.
It is a very interesting show the moves right along.
TOD:
Ordinary People
Thoroughly Modern Millie
Chuckles Bites the Dust
I liked almost all of the episodes of the MTM Show. The only ones that annoyed me were the ones the concentrated on Phyllis or Murray. I liked them in small doses - but I didn't want to spend 30 minutes with them at the expense of Mary, Lou, Rhoda, and Ted.
-
Slow day at HHW.....but it's early yet.
-
Nice weather for a car race....tomorrow.
-
I would like to be festooned.

Wouldn't you like to be festooned?

And that ain't a euphemism.

I slept 8 hours and I am still tired.
-
I want to get up and do, but I feel the need to rest.

I may start the day with the new version of Tom Jones.

Well the Xfinity man never showed up or texted.
I confirmed the appt. by a text they sent me yesterday.....maybe I accidentally canceled it....who knows?
-
Good morning
-
I had a dream that someone I was working with was leaving our law firm.
-
He had been getting all his personal mail delivered to the office
-
He was telling me that he was going to put in a address forwarding card to the post office so all mail woukd go to his new address
-
I was trying to explain that all the office mail would be forwarded too and that he needed to reach out to all his creditors individually to change his address
-
But he wouldn’t listen..
-
I woke myself up explain it over and over
-
I have no idea who the guy was.

TOD:
I really enjoyed MTM in "Thoroughly Modern Millie".
I thought "Ordinary People" extraordinary, but Timothy Hutton was the real star of the film, IMO, alongside Moore and Sutherland -- ALL of whom deserved nominations for Oscars.
-
I loved The List of Adrian Messenger, but I remember almost nothing about it now. I do remember that I saw it at the long-gone Paramount Theater in middletown, OH.
I saw this on television. Once. I remember loving it until the ending when the actors "de-masked". I already knew who was who, and that was fine, but when Kirk Douglas de-masked, he had this smarmy look on his face that said to me, "You didn't know it was ME, did you?" I hated that, and it left a bad memory of the film for me.
-
(http://)A film I saw twice in a theater was Larry Peerce's "A Separate Peace". I had read and enjoyed the John Knowles book, so I was hoping the film would be good, too. I thought it was -- even though most critics did not.
This is the film with Parker Stevenson's acting debut. He was good as Gene. But the best of everyone in the cast was the one-film wonder John Heyl as Finney. Mr. Heyl's performance was dead-on perfect for that character. Oddly enough, he had zero interest in acting. I think he had been spotted somewhere in New England, at school maybe, and was asked to test for the role. It was likely a lark for him, but he didn't take to it at all as a potential career.
The film has a very nice, if sparse, score by Charles Fox.

The Battle of the Butlers, starring Gerard Butler and Kerry Butler.

My money's on Kerry.

I really need to go out and do some "yard work" - i.e., brush cutting, cleaning up fallen branches and whatnot from the winter/spring storms, that kind of thing.
Okay, maybe a little later. :)

Mine too

Starting Tom Jones. I haven’t read the book in 45 years, but I remember loving it

For a teenager it was just bawdy enough to make you want to read the classics.

I started thinking about my eighth grade. It gets kind of conflated with the ninth, because my seventh grade was in a school district we only lived in for one year, then eighth and ninth were in a school I immediately loved more for various reasons. This, of course, was when we had "junior high" - grades 7 through 9 - as opposed to "middle" school, a seemingly arbitrary change that to this day still makes no sense to me.
No drama teachers in my case, so my favorites were the choral directors - who were not only pretty good ones, themselves, but they were very supportive of my own musical interests in addition to the accompanying I was doing for them.

Thanks for the video link, DR George. I'll have to make time to watch the whole thing.
My pleasure, Singdaw! I didn't know anything about that, but I'm actually not that surprised that it was on YouTube. :)
-
It looks like there may have been two different film adaptions of A Separate Peace, with different actors, both from 1972. Is that possible?

Sometimes vermilion.
His trousers were vermillion.

And now I'm thinking about my 8th Grade.
Homeroom, for math and science, was Mrs. Bee Dalton. Did not much like her. She did have us create and update notebooks when NASA began launching astronauts into space for rotations around the earth. I had Mrs. Smith for English and history. She was a sweet lady.
However...the 8th grade was when my love of film music and films solidifed and became a lifelong obsession. The catalyst was my best friend Jim Whaley. Early on, we connected with a love of films and talked about Saturday Night at the Movies. What connected us was that we both loved the music scores of the films. Between us, we scoured our city library for information about films, studios and composers. Jim made this his life's passion. His parents relocated to Stone Mountain GA from Greenville SC. While he was in high school, Jim wrangled himself into a public broadcasting radio show featuring film soundtracks. He also made contacts with composers, including Alfred Newman, and conducted on-air interviews via telephone.
After college, Jim broadened his horizons by hosting a PBS TV show (WABE out of Stone Mountain GA) called "Cinema Showcase." Stone Mountain is a suburb of Atlanta, and Atlanta was the hub of the southeast where everyone associated with film came to promote their films. Jim got them on his show. And also touring companies came through and he got to interview some theatrical celebs, as well. Jim also went on press junkets and travelled to MGM for the "That's Entertainment" junket. There is feature on one of the discs in that film set showing media touring the back lot. Jim is visible in these scenes.
The shows are archived at UGA (the University of Georgia) and some may be viewed here:

The other one, not the one mentioned by DR Ron Pulliam, was directed by Peter Yates, and is rated R.

Listened to this podcast yesterday, and assuming it's all factual, I learned some more incredible stuff about one of my favorite subjects: Trude Rittman.
https://www.broadway-nation.com/encore-episode-trude-rittmann-the-women-who-invented-broadway/
It's an "encore episode" so you might have heard it. I'm just catching up with these.
-
Great, DR ChasSmith. Thank you.
-

No, that was a 2004 TV movie.

DR Ron, Jim Whaley was a great interviewer! And as Steve Martin once said to him, he had the best eyes in show business. Each eye was like a little smile. What a loss it was when he left too soon.

DR Ron, Jim Whaley was a great interviewer! And as Steve Martin once said to him, he had the best eyes in show business. Each eye was like a little smile. What a loss it was when he left too soon.
One of the worst days of my life came in August 1992. Jim and I wrote all the time, regardless of where in the world I was or where he traveled. He would always tell me what he was doing, who he interviewed, whether they were good interviews or bad (and his memory of Carol Channing was abysmal), and he would pass on some "dirt" as well.
I had written him in late July. When I got my letter in mid August, it was a thick envelope, and I was anticipating a great read. (At that time, I was station manager of the AFRTS-TV affiliate in Naples, Italy). I remember walking into my office, sitting down, opening the envelope for a long read...and then being puzzled: Inside was my last letter to him, unopened, and another letter from his father. He explained that Jim had suffered a heart attack, but died in the ambulance en route to a hospital. He enclosed the obituary.
I must have read that letter a dozen times before it sank in.
It was the first major loss in my life: My best friend of nearly 40 years was gone.

DR Rodzinski: Thanks for the anecdote about Steve Martin. Another I can share was by Susan Hayward: "You know more about my career than I do". She said it with amazement and appreciation.
As I said, we scoured a library to learn about movies, and it was habit Jim went through before every interview.

It certainly gives me a chuckle. Conservative men (apologies to any and all who read this), a portion of them, (actually, a LARGE portion of them), are, indeed, WHINY, simpering, pouting fools. They do whatever they can to attain enough power to dictate to the rest of us how we should think, live and act.
It doesn't matter to them that this country and its constitution were created to declare freedom of choice, freedom of speech, freedom of/from religion, etc. It only matters that they get to tell us what we can say and believe.
How they have managed to corrupt Congress with this is nearly unbelievable. Let's look at Matt Gaetz from Florida, for instance. Outside of his consistent rule-breaking and grandstanding, has he ever, for one time, done anything constructive for the country? I say no, just as Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz and Kevin Mc Carthy (and before him Paul Ryan), and the newer batch like Boebert and Taylor-Greene have no idea how to "serve" the country. They only exist to upset and break rules and create havoc. That is how the conservatives gain power - by deflecting attention from real issues by creating non-issues, hate and distrust.
Gosh, my soap box is wobbling

He had mentioned that he works until 4:30 or 5:00, so that's probably not enough time for them to get down here and enjoy a meal before our call time. And with kids, they probably wouldn't want to go out after the show. Just a guess, though.

I finished Ni. 19, then I had a nice telephonic conversation with Joshie, who s arranging Paul McCartney songs for the Irish Rep Gala. I got an email from his brother Jeremy, who's illustrating Annabelle & Thatch, and he's got some pictures to show me. I think our publication date is drawing nigh, so I cc'd my reply to our publisher..

If Ann came to the show, they'd have to dump the kids on a sitter or family, so why couldn't they go out after?

Only assuming here, but they live in Tacoma, which is at least a half hour north of here, so after a long day, they may not want to stay out even longer...but it's just a guess.

I can ask him if they'd be interested, assuming Jane and Keith want to stay out late, too.

Jane, I asked Jed about lunch next Friday, and both he and Ann are working. I'm here in Tumwater, so it's not any trouble for me to meet you.
Thanks for asking. Did you offer dinner as an option? Of course we are open for whichever is best for you.
He had mentioned that he works until 4:30 or 5:00, so that's probably not enough time for them to get down here and enjoy a meal before our call time. And with kids, they probably wouldn't want to go out after the show. Just a guess, though.
If Ann came to the show, they'd have to dump the kids on a sitter or family, so why couldn't they go out after?
\
Only assuming here, but they live in Tacoma, which is at least a half hour north of here, so after a long day, they may not want to stay out even longer...but it's just a guess.
We will be heading home early in the morning and will need to go to sleep.
-
We need to get back home as we are leaving again on June 5th. That is the start of 6 weeks worth of 3.5 hour trips to Bend, Oregon.
-
The new dermatologist, whom we will not be returning to, did two biopsies on Keith's nose. Then for two weeks he heard nothing before he finally called for his results and was informed he has two different skin cancers (not melanoma). Two weeks the doctor sat with that information, not good.
She then, supposedly, sent a request to a local doctor to do Mohs. Supposedly since we have not heard from the office to set up an appointment for his Mohs surgeries.
-
In the meantime Keith found a better treatment, longer process but a faster healing time with less chance of needing plastic surgery once completed. It is called IG-SRT treatment and uses low levels of radiation to kill the cancer cells. It has been around a long time. The office we are traveling to Bend for has a way to measure the cancer cells and know exactly how much of an area to treat.
Unfortunately there currently aren't any offices that do this in Portland or Vancouver. Soon, but not yet. There is one in Tacoma, however, it doesn't have the more accurate machine.
-
We will be spending three nights a week in Bend and four nights home until the process is completed.
-
There will be a total of twenty treatments. Two the first week, with three each following week if all goes well.
-
I can ask him if they'd be interested, assuming Jane and Keith want to stay out late, too.
I guess I already answered that.
-
I shall now be on my way to lunch with dear reader Jeanne.
Have a nice lunch.
-
That sounds grueling, DR Jane, but glad that there is a treatment option available.
-
Oh my DR JANE.
It sounds like you have a bad situation well in hand.
Vibes for you both.
-
Such wonderful posts & links today.
I have certainly been kept busy.
I also loved A SEPARATE PEACE - book & first movie.
-
I hope DR JEANNE & MR BK are having a nice lunch.
-
It's prolly over by now.

XFINITY man came 45 minutes late....worked outside for about twenty minutes and proclaimed himself DONE!
I don't notice a difference, but then again I hadn't noticed anything wrong before.

DR GINNY's nephew graduated from Maude Findlay High School?
-
I enjoyed reading DR RON PULLIAM's posts today - as always.
-
And DR CHAS SMITH's as well.
Our junior high had grades 7 & 8.
My 8th grade year included the day when President Kennedy was shot....and I just realized this November will be the 70th anniversary of that event.
-
Still nice weather here.
I may mow the lawn tomorrow - we shall see.
Remember you can use a Grabber to pick up small sticks and debris in your yard and you don't have to keep bending over. If you wear a florescent green shirt your neighbors will think you are doing your community service.
-
That sounds grueling, DR Jane, but glad that there is a treatment option available.
Boy, it sure does.
Could he still just choose MOHS plus the plastic surgery if needed?
-
Out in El Lay, a nice luncheon has been had. We'll need some details, of course.

That was one of the first things I thought about, because the JFK news was coming to us as we were lined up to board the school buses in that school's front driveway that afternoon. That was my 9th grade. I think? November of the 1963-64 school year?
(Okay, wait a minute... 10th grade was 64-65, 11th was 65-66, and 12th was 66-67. So yes, that's right, it was my 9th grade.)

Only 7th & 8th, did you like that? It seems like the two classes would have been close.

I was in 9th grade when Kennedy was shot.
-
That sounds grueling, DR Jane, but glad that there is a treatment option available.

Yes, but this is not only better, it has a slightly higher success rate than Mohs.

Bruce and I had a lovely lunch — luncheon, if you prefer. Good food, interesting conversation, and the fellow at the next booth bought our meal! Everyone singing Happy Birthday was a bit of a giveaway, but still very kind and unexpected.
-
I now have my copy of Preview Harvey to read and review.
-
I just wish I had had a normal night’s sleep. I’m definitely not with it today!
-
Jane, mega vibes to Keith for the skin cancer treatment.
-
Hugs to all of us missing those who’ve passed on.
-
Now, I need a nap!
TTFN.
-
DR Jeanne, what a lovely gift from a fellow diner.
That sort of gesture restores my faith in humanity.
-
DR Jane, am sorry to hear about Keith’s diagnosis and the upcoming ordeal.
Basal and squamous cell skin cancers have very successful cure rates when caught early, so I am optimistic.
Not impressed with the dermatologist who didn’t notify you immediately.
Shameful.
-
I think your decision to choose radiation is wise.
High cure rate, no scarring or pain.
-
DR Jeanne, what a lovely gift from a fellow diner.
That sort of gesture restores my faith in humanity.
My thoughts exactly.
-
The Texas House voting to impeach the criminal Paxton also restores my faith in humanity.

DR Chas, I watched The Conversation for the first time right after Cindy Williams passed away.
I,too, found the film very powerful and well executed.
No pun intended.
Or maybe it was? 😊
-
Elmore, this Tom Jones is pleasant enough, but it has shown no reason to be four hours long. Each episode seems padded by about 10 minutes apiece.
-
Now, whenever I hear the song 🎵 When The Red, Red Robin Comes Bob Bob Bobbin’ Along, i only hear it in Cindy’s voice.
-
But I shall finish it
-
I agree, John G., about Paxton’s impeachment.
A good day for our system of justice.
-
I do not care for page seven.
-
Lunch was really fun - when the bill came, I left my cc to pay, then went and used the loo. When I came back the cc was still there so I asked told our server he could go run it and pay the check. And he said, it's already paid for and he pointed to these two super nice fellows who'd sung happy birthday. I couldn't believe it. And as dear reader Iris said, it restores one's faith in humanity. And other than an obnoxious text in the morning, this day has been very nice. A check I wasn't expecting for another two weeks arrived and that's helpful. No traffic anywhere.

I like that they sung happy birthday to you.

Thank you. Having two at once motivated him want to find an alternative to surgery.

I will second that!

Thank you. We both have had plenty of those. The issue this time are the locations.
-
We agree it was shameful for her not to contact him.
She had told him to make another appointment in five weeks to go over his issues. I suspected he was going to get his results then but he didn't believe me since that was not the reason she made the appointment. Sure enough, the assistant asked if he wanted to cancel his follow up visit since that was to give him the results of the biopsy.
-
Who waits five weeks to tell you there is cancer! With all my positive diagnosis, if the margins have not all been removed, they got me back into the office as soon as possible.
-
I think your decision to choose radiation is wise.
High cure rate, no scarring or pain.
Did you just look it up or were you familiar with it?

Shirley Henderson is an underused talent. She’s fun in Tom Jones.

An old mono Decca classical album I was very fond of as a kid - Copland's The Red Pony and Virgil Thomson's Acadian Songs and Dances.
-
While I was driving to lunch, they were playing an opera on the radio - a new-fangled opera about a boxer, with a score by Terence Blanchard. I sure enjoyed what I heard - jazzy at times, even a bit of rock, but mostly traditional opera but very tuneful.
-
It was at the Met. I'll see if it's on YouTube as I'd like to hear the entire thing.
-
I doubt it's been recorded, at least yet.
-
The opera is called Champion.

That opera is based on a true story, Bruce.

We are still good friends.

Doing a 180. The feature now is The Strangler starring Victor Buono. Looks deliciously sordid.

I am reading an article that begins with "The Joe Biden administration has been accused of “stonewalling” a legal bid to uncover details of Prince Harry’s US visa application using Freedom of Information laws."
Really, as if this is a good reason to be angry at the Biden administration ;D
-
A Washington-based think-tank believes it is outrageous that Harry's request to have his application fast-tracked on the grounds of exceptional public interest was turned down.
Really, people can get their applications fast tracked because the public is interested in them :o

Had watermelon for dinner. Good stuff. Very juicy.

Read a review of the new Dr Pepper Float ice cream. They liked the product overall, but said it lacked the “peppery” taste of the soda. Huh? Dr Pepper doesn’t taste of pepper.

John G. I think you mentioned reading the new book by Tom Hanks.
He did a great interview with Ari Melber about it.

DR Jane, I forgot to tell you how much I enjoyed reading about Keith’s Williamsburg birthday surprise for you in the holiday letter.
Very cute and clever!

Thank you. It was a wonderful birthday as Williamsburg turned on the Christmas lights just for me ;)
-
I had been pestering Keith to go see the lights after friends invited us to meet them there and we couldn't go.
-
It was freezing cold that night. They had bonfires set up and hot apple cider to help people warm up.
-
Having made last minute hotel reservations Keith couldn't find any place nice. His assistant, who had once been a travel agent, was unhappy with where we were staying and found us a nice inn to stay at. Bless her.
-
Of course I wanted to eat at the Williamsburg Inn except they, and just about every other restaurant were booked. I must have called about 20 times to check if they had a cancellation, when to my surprise they did. To eat there we missed the exact moment the lights went on. Dinner was delicious and the inn a special place to dine.
-
After living in Ashland, I know that as exciting as it is to see the lights go on, it was worth missing standing in the freezing cold to have a special birthday dinner.

2.5 hours of battles and bloodshed

I don’t think I had ever seen the original title before. It translates as Nothing New on the Western Front. A little uglier, a little more cynical.
-
For years I could not eat popcorn very often, and certainly not at night.

Now when I say Keith is popping corn I can't express how much I appreciate the fact I no longer have to watch him eat it with sad eyes.

One of my fellow ringers fell this week and broke her jaw. Her surgery is scheduled for the same time as the service.

Sorry about your colleague, DR John G. But don't let this happen to you:
-
First of all, the complete opera is on YouTube - just audio. But the person who uploaded it also includes a link to the complete video - I started watching and it looks great but it's wildly out of sync and that's just not the way to watch anything. So, I'm trying to download the video via Clip Grab but it's just not working - taking over two hours with no progress in sight. I'm going to try another way and see if that works. If I can get it on the computer then I can give it to Marshall and he can fix the sync and give it back to me.
-
DR John G., I do hope that you are feeling well enough to participate.
-
There have been a lot of interesting write-ups about Champion.
-
Tomorrow is Pentecost, so we are all encouraged to wear red.
-
I wonder if this would do:
-
;D
-
When I was a kid, my parents would always say, "Excuse my French" after uttering a swear word.
-
I'll never forget my first day at school when my teacher asked if any of us knew any French...

Jack , I believe this year is the 60th anniversary of JFKs assassination.
I was in first grade but still remember my teacher being called out to the hallway by another teacher and then coming back in crying.
-
Back then kids , even in kindergarten, were let to walk home on their own, so school,was dismissed early.

I arrived home to find that my mother was watching TV and crying too,

It's just another deflection by conservativism...create a "hot topic" to get people stirred up over yet another non-national item that has no bearing on anything.
-
Re school divisions , in the town where I lived until I was 9, K-6 were in elementary then 7-12 were in the high school
-
When we moved the schools were k-4 in elementary, 5-9 in middle school and 10-12 in high school
-
But now ( same school district) the schools are K-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12

Vixdad and I went out to brunch at IHOP where I had their new bourbon bacon jam eggs Benedict , which I highly recommend

I was mildly surprised when we got home to find the vines were still overrunning the hostas

Jane: Tell Keith I am sure he will lick this cancer and hold up to the treatments very well. Optimism is the key...that and a positive outlook.
-
But then I found my typo , so the misunderstanding is entirely my fault
-
DR JackRandallEarles: Thank you for your lovely comment about my posts.
-
Speaking of vibes, I send my strongest successful treatment and recovery vibes to Keith.
That dermatologist is a disgrace. Keith should have been called immediately, personally by the doctor, as soon as the pathology results were received.
-
Well I had better get to sleep since I need to get up early and iron my red dress before Pentecost services tomorrow….ooops I mean later today .
-
It already is tomorrow
-
At least on this side of the continent
-
Good night
-
Finished with my viewing. The Hammer family is about as vile gets and just shows you the power of money. Finally got Champion onto the computer and a thumb drive and will give it to Marshall, who'll be able to fix the sync - they I can watch it.
-
No posts in ninety minutes?

I just do.
-
Better turn the heat on - got a little chilly - the day was hot.
-
But the night is cold.
-
Now I want soup.
-
Did George go out and eat with his fellow players?
No, but I drove through Burger King just as it was closing and I got an absolutely freshly cooked bacon and Swiss chicken sandwich.
-
It was quite delish.
-
I suppose I could do a late-night run to Ralph's and get my Diet Cokes and also some Campbell's soup, but I don't think I will.
-
I also ordered the 4-piece mozzarella sticks, but I guess since they were closing, I got seven sticks!
-
I didn't love Burger King when I recently had it, but maybe I should try a chicken sandwich.
-
AND they gave me some fresh French fries and I didn't even ask or pay for those.
-
Seven mozzarella sticks are always preferable to four.
-
That happens sometimes at the California Chicken Cafe - I'll order a breast and wing and they'll thrown two or three extra wings.
-
Now I want wings.
-
Wings and soup.
-
BUT, the diet Coke that I got had no ice, was kind of warm and totally flat. :P
-
Soup and wings.
-
And other things.
-
I hate it when that happens! >:(
-
New notes are up.
-
Up are new notes.
-
I've seen them.
-
I've read them.
-
I wrote them.
-
They're fun.
-
They really are fun.
-
Well, not that much fun.
-
But, after I saw that I got fries and extra mozzarella sticks (and they had turned off all their lights), I didn't even ask for ice...it's fine.
-
I need to turn on the heat, but when has the heat ever turned ME on, that's what I'd like to know?
-
PAGE FOURTEEN DANCE!!
-
Page fourteen.
-
I could use some wings and soup.
-
And heat.
-
And soup.
-
And wings.
-
But the really good news is that the new Broadway cast recording to Parade finally arrived in my mail box! Whew!
-
And flings.
-
We is very close to 400 posts.
-
Gratuitous Post #400!!
-
So close that we're there.
-
I had also (separately) ordered a DVD and a book and both I those arrived today, too!
-
So close that we're there.
And then some!
-
Who'da thunk it??
-
I still have some ketchuping to do.
