It's been hell this morning after a very rough night of sleep. I woke with a huge urge to get to the bathroom. I made it, but I stepped barefoot into a large puddle of cat vomit. This is the second morning in a row that one of the cats has thrown up and both times were in the very same area. I hope this does not portend sick kitties. So, after I dressed, I cleaned up the mess.

Almost time for me to go.

Went to post office early and waited quite a while for a lady who arrived early with a ton of things to mail.

Lately, that's the story of my post office travels.  Every day, I have a package to pick up but wait 5-10 minutes to get it because there is one, and only one, postal clerk.

For a small town, we have a lot of mail going through our small post office.

Almost time for me to go.

Went to post office early and waited quite a while for a lady who arrived early with a ton of things to mail.

Lately, that's the story of my post office travels.  Every day, I have a package to pick up but wait 5-10 minutes to get it because there is one, and only one, postal clerk.

For a small town, we have a lot of mail going through our small post office.

Do you not feel comfortable having the package delivered to your house?

Woudld prefer it, but not always given the choice.

Trump is the first former president in U.S. history to face federal charges.

The Justice Department took the legally and politically momentous step of lodging federal criminal charges against former President Donald J. Trump, multiple people familiar with the matter said on Thursday, following a lengthy investigation of his handling of classified documents that he took with him upon leaving office and then obstructing the government’s efforts to reclaim them.

Nixon would have been the first, but he was smart enough to resign and then be pardoned for everything. And the DOJ would never have done this if they didn't have the goods. The real shocker is that not only can he continue running for president (and he's already gleefully fleecing his base again for contributions), he can continue running if he's found guilty. There is something very wrong with this country if someone is found guilty of criminal behavior and can still run for the highest office in the country.

I don't know how many tickets were sold, but it was a pretty darned full house.

During the concert, I was sitting right behind the sound board operator, and she had the set list on her board.

After the concert, I asked her if they keep those, and she said, "No.  Do you want it?"

A few of the performers came out after the show, and before the meet-and-greet (with the donors), and I was able to get autographs from four of them!

Yup...and that's a good thing!

After having experienced both screens, I really do like the smaller screen with more physical/tactile buttons than the larger all-touch screen.

I'd never searched The First Nudie Musical and "England" on newspapers.com - amazing what came up - the film played all over England for an entire YEAR. I thought that was pretty neat. I saved some of the adverts.
Title: Re: PRUDENT PRUNES
Post by: bk on June 09, 2023, 12:29:18 AM
Then I searched Australia and it had a nice run there, too - both of those runs were in 1981.
Title: Re: PRUDENT PRUNES
Post by: bk on June 09, 2023, 12:29:39 AM
Then I searched Canada and it came out there in 1977.
Title: Re: PRUDENT PRUNES
Post by: bk on June 09, 2023, 12:30:31 AM
Newspapers.com doesn't have any papers from France or Japan or Italy, but I doubt the film played in any of those places. It did play in Russia or at least the video found its way over there.

Nixon would have been the first, but he was smart enough to resign and then be pardoned for everything. And the DOJ would never have done this if they didn't have the goods. The real shocker is that not only can he continue running for president (and he's already gleefully fleecing his base again for contributions), he can continue running if he's found guilty. There is something very wrong with this country if someone is found guilty of criminal behavior and can still run for the highest office in the country.

Exactly!
