Today, the Olympia chapter of PFLAG is having their annual picnic.  My sister wants me to help set up the picnic area before it starts, so I will.  I won't stay for it this year because my friend Margo and I are going to see the 1:35 showing of The Art of Racing in the Rain.  A local theater group last year did a stage production and it was wonderful.

Jeanne, there had been a nicely done video of the production that was at Bard College, which started the revival on its way to Brooklyn and then Broadway, but I guess it was taken down when the commercial plans started.   (But it's not where it was now.  rules for video-ing may have been different when it was a Bard College production rather than a commercial production???).

Maybe I should blame spell check.

I also noticed that the ambulance at the end of the film is from the Schaefer Ambulance Co. which is the company that picked up Miss Marilyn Monroe's body from her home after her "suicide."

Last night we watched the first half of Carry On Cowboy, a fantastic parody with a bunch of excellent British farceurs attempting cowboy accents.  Kenneth Williams is wonderful as the judge needing a marshal to rid his town of the Rumpo Kid and his gang and Jim Dale plays a bumbling drainage expert, Marshall P. Knutt, who's mistaken for the new peace maker.  Jon Pertwee as nearly deaf and blind Sheriff Earp has a brilliant slapstick turn before he is gunned down by the Rumpo Kid.

DR TCB thank goodness the U-haul did not hit you.

We too can back our cars in our parking garage, but then it wouldn't make sense not to here.

Now here is a tip - not particularly for all we millionaires here at HHW - but you can pass it along to your poor relatives.  :D

I love my car - but it IS 15 years old.  A few years ago my brother Dane used one of those kits to try to get the lenses on my headlights clean because they were very cloudy.  He had to use sandpaper and some kind of formula on it....and it wasn't so hot. :-\

I mentioned this to my older brother Mike on Friday.  He texted me to tell me that my nephew Paul suggested the toothpaste rub....use a soft dry cloth and TOOTHPASTE....rub for a few minutes.  :o

Then use a wet cloth to wipe off the lens.

Well, folks, they look like new!  I highly recommend the Ultra Brite treatment if anyone has cloudy headlight lenses.....   8)

ChasSmith's review on Audible is up:

 A most delightful Adriana!

I am very familiar with Bruce Kimmel’s Adriana Hofstetter mysteries and have previously reviewed the books themselves on Amazon. These are my comments on the Audible edition.

When I heard there was to be an audio version of the latest book in the series, I couldn’t wait to listen because these stories are perfect candidates for this treatment. And I’m very happy to say that Moira Todd’s reading is a delight. She possesses a lovely clear voice that beautifully captures the character of Adriana and the world around her. Character dialogue is voiced with just enough distinction for this listener’s taste, and the reading is eminently listenable overall, successfully bringing a favorite series to life.

The Adriana books are highly recommended for younger and older readers alike, and I hope many more Audible editions will follow. Kudos to Bruce Kimmel and to Moira Todd for such a lovely start.

And another thank-ye for DR Jrand68. I really need to do this for my SEVENTEEN-year-old, and I'd recently researched the best kits to buy. I'll try this method first, before dropping a double sawbuck. If I still buy one, it'll be one of those in which you can mount the pads on a drill.

I finally purchased a new Samsung Tab A 8".  The battery should last longer & it has a bluelight option which I am hoping will reduce my headaches/mild migraines.

Keith talked me out of taking my tablet with me to Best Buy.  When the very helpful Samsung person told me the new tablet is the same size as my old one I didn't completely believe her but did not pursue without proof.  Now I need to find a cover that fits the new size.  My big issue is that I do not like the new shape which is wide screen for movie viewing but more narrow for book reading unless I hold the tablet sideways.  I hate doing that since books are not shaped that way.  I also can't find a tablet cover I want. 

Oh, the little irritants in life.  Fingers crossed the bluelight helps as I am a bit fed up with these migraines.

Two members of our bible study group were not able to make it tonight, so we just watched a couple of movies instead. The first was a Harold Lloyd short called Take a Chance. It was truly funny. Choreographed to within an inch of its life.

So, she needed a little escapism. The feature was Murder on the Nile, which I hadn't seen since it came out in 1978. Angela Lansbury was fun, but she looked like she was wearing her Nellie Lovett makeup and someone else's hair.

The all-star cast included David Niven, Bette Davis, Maggie Smith, George Kennedy, Olivia Hussey, Mia Farrow, Simon McCorkindale, Lois Chiles and Jane Birkin as well as Peter Ustinov in his first outing as Poirot.

Smith and Birkin were back with Ustinov in Evil Under the Sun.

Today, the Olympia chapter of PFLAG is having their annual picnic.  My sister wants me to help set up the picnic area before it starts, so I will.  I won't stay for it this year because my friend Margo and I are going to see the 1:35 showing of The Art of Racing in the Rain.  A local theater group last year did a stage production and it was wonderful.

I hope you like it.  I have heard it was good.  I am waiting for a report from someone who also read the book.

We both really enjoyed the movie.  Margo thought that it slowed down in the middle a little too much for her liking, but I didn't have a problem with that.  Recommended by the likes of me. :)

Now here is a tip - not particularly for all we millionaires here at HHW - but you can pass it along to your poor relatives.  :D

I love my car - but it IS 15 years old.  A few years ago my brother Dane used one of those kits to try to get the lenses on my headlights clean because they were very cloudy.  He had to use sandpaper and some kind of formula on it....and it wasn't so hot. :-\

I mentioned this to my older brother Mike on Friday.  He texted me to tell me that my nephew Paul suggested the toothpaste rub....use a soft dry cloth and TOOTHPASTE....rub for a few minutes.  :o

Then use a wet cloth to wipe off the lens.

Well, folks, they look like new!  I highly recommend the Ultra Brite treatment if anyone has cloudy headlight lenses.....   8)

I bought one of those kits, too, but I haven't even opened it, yet.  I did, however, hear from several people about using toothpaste, but I haven't tried that, either. ::)

Last night we watched the first half of Carry On Cowboy, a fantastic parody with a bunch of excellent British farceurs attempting cowboy accents.  Kenneth Williams is wonderful as the judge needing a marshal to rid his town of the Rumpo Kid and his gang and Jim Dale plays a bumbling drainage expert, Marshall P. Knutt, who's mistaken for the new peace maker.  Jon Pertwee as nearly deaf and blind Sheriff Earp has a brilliant slapstick turn before he is gunned down by the Rumpo Kid.

This sounds delightful, DR Elmore.

The trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI8NaaHnMJA

Growing up, my sister and I would watch the Carry On movies every time they were on TV.  I don't specifically remember which we watched, but we really enjoyed them.

ChasSmith's review on Audible is up:

 A most delightful Adriana!

I am very familiar with Bruce Kimmel’s Adriana Hofstetter mysteries and have previously reviewed the books themselves on Amazon. These are my comments on the Audible edition.

When I heard there was to be an audio version of the latest book in the series, I couldn’t wait to listen because these stories are perfect candidates for this treatment. And I’m very happy to say that Moira Todd’s reading is a delight. She possesses a lovely clear voice that beautifully captures the character of Adriana and the world around her. Character dialogue is voiced with just enough distinction for this listener’s taste, and the reading is eminently listenable overall, successfully bringing a favorite series to life.

The Adriana books are highly recommended for younger and older readers alike, and I hope many more Audible editions will follow. Kudos to Bruce Kimmel and to Moira Todd for such a lovely start.

That's wonderful!  I enjoyed the short sample.

Fabulous or fishnets?

I have worn fishnets before...in two different shows.

I hate to do it, but I must be off, too.  I think I have a meeting tomorrow, but I don't remember. :-\ I guess I just need to get my butt (and the rest of me, too) to bed earlier so that I can get out of bed earlier so that I can get to work earlier...just in case.  And so I shall.

Have a good day, all!
