Sandy’s husband, Stewart, is a major Baltimore hero.
They are such good people.
Stewart has saved our local newspaper.

“The Baltimore Banner was founded by Stewart Bainum, a businessman and philanthropist who has committed $50 million dollars over the next several years to establish and sustain the nonprofit newsroom devoted to local coverage of local news.”

We love him in Baltimore.

Jo Anne Worley is one of the funniest and kindest people I have ever met.
When my daughter was 9 years old, she performed the role of Molly, with Jo Anne Worley as Miss Hannigan.

She was very encouraging, and we shared many laughs together, especially about shoes and dogs.
She is very committed to the humane treatment of dogs and animal rescue.
A wonderful person.

Phoenix smells so good when it rains.
It’s because of the creosote bush.
I remember it from summer monsoons, but don’t know if it’s the same during the winter months.

I slept like a rock, after watching Black Narcissus and staying up kind of late catching up on a few things. The one dream I know I had was just before waking up this morning, and it had me doing such a silly thing and trying lamely to explain it to people that I was very relieved to find it was only a dream.

My days are completely off. Because of Kristi and Nathan going out of town yesterday, it felt like a Saturday all day and evening. They return later today, and this is for all the world like a Sunday. The feeling is so strong this time that I’ll be in danger of screwing up appointments and rehearsals this week if I don’t leave reminders for myself all over the place.

Thanks for all the nice comments about the Robby appearance. I do have fun doing those things. I hosted these three times I think - and I did what no other host I've seen has done, which is play off things that happened in the show. That's the fun of it, I think.

She also made a wonderful Letitia Restoria Primrose in On the 20th Century. I would have loved to see her Rose in Gypsy. I bet dhe was phenomenal.

I went into a bank today to get some $2 bills for this weekend’s Lunar New Year’s celebration. In China, you only give even amounts of money to people in red envelopes. The bills has to be even too. This is a sign of luck.

Giving a person an odd amount, or even two $1 bills, is something you do at funerals. I think the envelope in that case is white.

Jo Anne Worley is one of the funniest and kindest people I have ever met.
When my daughter was 9 years old, she performed the role of Molly, with Jo Anne Worley as Miss Hannigan.

She was very encouraging, and we shared many laughs together, especially about shoes and dogs.
She is very committed to the humane treatment of dogs and animal rescue.
A wonderful person.



I walked by Joanne Worley walking a dog once on 10th Ave.

It is rather shocking considering his parents long lives and, as far as we know, were cancer free.
Actually both of his parents had cancer. Queen Elizabeth suffered with painful bone marrow cancer for quite some time,  but managed to keep it a secret. His father, Prince Philip was diagnosed with prostate cancer, but the Royal family refused to confirm or deny it. Very private family.

After it was reported by several newspapers, the Royal family asked them to remove the diagnosis, and would not confirm anything.
The Guardian followed up.
A cancer specialist reportedly told the paper: "It's become an open secret within the medical community that Philip has prostate cancer."
He was 87 at the time.

Does anyone remember the McDLT?

It was phased out in the early 90s, I believe.

It was served in a two-sided container which was supposed to keep the burger hot and the lettuce, onion, cheese, and tomato cool.

I liked them, but like most things that I like, they went the way of the Dodo bird.

My memory is vague on that, DR ChasSmith. But the commercial showed it that way.

I am watching Notorious with Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman and The Wrong Man with Henry Fonda and Vera Miles on TCM both directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

The difference cannot be blamed on Cary and Ingrid.

Many people don't know that Pringles were originally invented for wreath building.

Does anyone remember the McDLT?

It was phased out in the early 90s, I believe.

It was served in a two-sided container which was supposed to keep the burger hot and the lettuce, onion, cheese, and tomato cool.

I liked them, but like most things that I like, they went the way of the Dodo bird.

I remember those.  I also remember a former co-worker telling me that she ordered one, but didn't want them to put it in the Styrofoam container, just some paper wrappers or a cardboard box.  She said that they couldn't (or wouldn't) do that.  She then declined to order the item.
