Topic of the Day:  only because I watched it when I was probably too young to see it (it was on HBO and I watched it on my little TV in my bedroom when I was in probably early high school ::) ):  The Harrad Experiment, and what a coinkydink, starring Don Johnson, father of Dakota Johnson (star of Fifty Shades of Grey) and Tippi Hedren, grandmother of Dakota Johnson, and in an uncredited student role, Melanie Griffith, mother of Dakota Johnson.  It's all in the family!

I dreamt I had escaped from kidnappers, clothed only in a yellow towel, and was trying to persuade some D&D players to escort me home . They were afraid to get involved so I scoffed at them being afraid to go in a real quest and to save a maiden in distress. Also for some reason I was only about 4’10” and they were all around 7 foot tall and teenage boys.

This morning, Randy sent me this photo, wondering if I remembered where it was taken. I remembered two things: the park bench and we were visiting a zoo. I cannot remember now if this is in Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Washington DC, or Kansas City.

I don't think it's Kansas City; that was August 1956, and I don't think I look 10 years old in the photo. I'm guessing Pittsburgh, when we went to visit my Dad's brother.

The director hasn't posted his notes yet.....I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

No calling for lines tonight....we're on our own.....the actor was a little better last night.....but sometimes he leaves me no place to go.

And I have to ride up the elevator - which involves me opening and closing the doors and then running up a flight of steps and coming out through the doors up on the platform and take a bottle of whiskey out of a globe liquor cabinet and THEN talk to him through a speaker.....and he talks so fast he's waiting for me to talk as soon as I get out of the elevator....

Holy moly, would I ever NOT like to be among them, schlepping heavy keyboards and amps in and out of the building, setting up the laptop, etc., in this sh stuff.

Just for kicks ..... here's the photo that had confounded my dad. He was guessing the year, as you can see, but he couldn't say what the background told him about the location. One guess was the Cedar Point amusement park up on Lake Erie, but it could just as easily have been something like the Columbus or Cincinnati zoos, or maybe even the Coney Island amusement park on the Ohio River...if it existed back then, but I think it did.

Coney Island was always a place I wanted to go to since I was a little kid, but my parents had no interest, I guess their attitude was, we had LeSourdsville Lake, which I loved. Then King's Island took a lot of the Coney Island trade.

That's one I never knew about, and it looks wonderful. We had one a little east of Columbus, at Buckeye Lake, that I vaguely remember.

Kings Island was pretty new when I began driving down to Cincinnati from Cleveland (my folks moved there from Florida in December 1969), and I've passed it on I-71 countless times between then and now. But I've never been to it. My family certainly had, especially my sister's kids and grandkids.

Coney Island is still down there by the river, mostly in name only. I think it's more a recreational site these days. But King's Island did take some of the rides and all, and the last I heard, they still had a Coney Island section with those still working. That, at least, is the way to do it if you must be a giant that causes good things to close.

I see they still have a section called Coney Island Mall, but I don't know how much of the original stuff is still there.

And I was wrong about when Kings Island opened. It wasn't till spring of 1972. But I probably saw it, or at least their Eiffel Tower, under construction, on those earlier drives, and I remember there was one of Voice of America's huge antenna farms located just to the south of it.

TOD

As someone who never married and never had kids or who ever had to be responsible for kids, I have lived my moviegoing life in blissful ignorance of the ratings system.

The only time it would have affected me was when I was still living in Cleveland before turning 21, and the li'l rite of passage I gave myself on that occasion was going to an "adult" film. I hate to even admit what it was, but I THINK the one I went to - and it was really horrible to me, even then - was one of the I AM CURIOUS films (Yellow or Blue, who the hell knows) that was playing in some theater in East Cleveland. Its awfulness did me the favor of automatically wiping itself out of my memory to save me the trouble of doing it.

Anyhoo, I wouldn't know if any films I've seen pushed any boundaries, since I never took it upon myself to be aware of it. At any rate, nothing in particular comes to mind.

I saw Bertolucci’s 1900 before I turned 17. It was a real eye opener. Full frontal nudity and violence, both standard and grotesque. I can remember Donald Sutherland running with a pitchfork stuck in his neck, another in a thigh. And it went on for four hours.

Remember I mentioned the person who was going to leave Facebook but instead has decided to do a blog/diary on Facebook instead - and I mentioned they'd been to this here site. So, today they do their first entry - "Last night I watched" and just like here we get a rundown of the movies - and I do mean just like here. This person is trying very hard to do our kind of humor but they're not us so it's not funny. And just before they finish the thing, what word suddenly appears as if by magic? "Gaslighting." Coincidence or homage, you tell me. :)

Unavailable online for eight years, the 2011/2012 web series Outside the Box returns.  In the series premiere, Beth Leavel gets a call from Stephen Findle, the artistic director of the Outside the Box Theater Company. They're doing a new musical and they want Beth Level to star. The new musical? Tune in, it's a good one. Also starring Melody Hollis, Barry Pearl, Sandy Rosenberg, and Brandon Uranowitz. Written and Directed by Yours Truly. Edited by Marshall Harvey. Choreographed by Adam Cates. Musical Direction by John Boswell. Music and Lyrics by Yours Truly, Outside the Box Theme by Grant Geissman.

Please like our channel (this is VERY important) and watch the other eleven episodes of Outside the Box. If you click on and/or search the channel name (haineshisway), you'll find the other episodes, plus Tonight's the Night, which I posted about yesterday but which the dreaded algorithms are doing their dreaded best to make sure no one actually sees the post. :) Also, leave a nice comment if you like. Interestingly, even though I put these up yesterday but didn't tell anyone, people have found them anyway. Go know.  https://youtu.be/ugBx0mY07sw

Here's an article about Indy's Riverside Amusement Park where our parents used to take us at least once every summer.

Built in 1904 it closed up in 1970....our last couple of visits in the late 1960's proved to be a bit scary.....some really weird characters had made the place their own.

I did go to Aiken and Sam's Club.

And my freezer is fat and happy with plenty of ice cream, plus some other goodies, including a package of garden salad lettuce.

Bought a rotisserie chicken, as well, plus some blueberry muffins.

And on my way home, a slight deviation to Cook's Roadside Produce where I got cucumber, tomatoes and squash, along with some Vidalia onion/cucumber salad dressing.

I feel so accomplished right now.

Just for kicks ..... here's the photo that had confounded my dad. He was guessing the year, as you can see, but he couldn't say what the background told him about the location. One guess was the Cedar Point amusement park up on Lake Erie, but it could just as easily have been something like the Columbus or Cincinnati zoos, or maybe even the Coney Island amusement park on the Ohio River...if it existed back then, but I think it did.

Is that your dad in the photo?

King’s Island 1974 & ‘75. We drive from Northern Indiana and stayed in Cincy, and spent a couple days at the park. It was Hanna-Barbera-themed (as shown in an episode of the Brady Bunch).

Unavailable online for eight years, the 2011/2012 web series Outside the Box returns.  In the series premiere, Beth Leavel gets a call from Stephen Findle, the artistic director of the Outside the Box Theater Company. They're doing a new musical and they want Beth Level to star. The new musical? Tune in, it's a good one. Also starring Melody Hollis, Barry Pearl, Sandy Rosenberg, and Brandon Uranowitz. Written and Directed by Yours Truly. Edited by Marshall Harvey. Choreographed by Adam Cates. Musical Direction by John Boswell. Music and Lyrics by Yours Truly, Outside the Box Theme by Grant Geissman.

Please like our channel (this is VERY important) and watch the other eleven episodes of Outside the Box. If you click on and/or search the channel name (haineshisway), you'll find the other episodes, plus Tonight's the Night, which I posted about yesterday but which the dreaded algorithms are doing their dreaded best to make sure no one actually sees the post. :) Also, leave a nice comment if you like. Interestingly, even though I put these up yesterday but didn't tell anyone, people have found them anyway. Go know.  https://youtu.be/ugBx0mY07sw

Let's see if I've got this straight about the YouTube stuff:

And what we like is each video, individually.

Is this correct?

Remember I mentioned the person who was going to leave Facebook but instead has decided to do a blog/diary on Facebook instead - and I mentioned they'd been to this here site. So, today they do their first entry - "Last night I watched" and just like here we get a rundown of the movies - and I do mean just like here. This person is trying very hard to do our kind of humor but they're not us so it's not funny. And just before they finish the thing, what word suddenly appears as if by magic? "Gaslighting." Coincidence or homage, you tell me. :)

I was asked to order it last week, but with Pride weekend and the 4th holiday, it slipped my mind. ::)

I also was able to get 11x17 posters printed, and I dropped them off at the theater tonight.

I also ordered business card sized posters with a QR code for ticket information.

They knew that that would take a week or so, but not that the big poster wouldn't be able to be printed at the store.
