Today, I will be ushering for one in the Washington Center's silent film series, "Way Down East."  I love their silent film series.  They have live organ music playing and it's always very good!  Here's what the listing says:

Quote
A 1920 romantic drama directed by D. W. Griffith and starring Lillian Gish, this is one of four film adaptations of the melodramatic 19th century play Way Down East by Lottie Blair Parker. Griffith's version is particularly remembered for its exciting climax in which Gish's character is rescued from doom on an icy river. The original score will be performed live on our 1924 Andy Crow Wurlitzer by master organist Dennis James.

:)

The silent movie was very good.  It was three hours long, but didn't seem like it.

The organist, Dennis James, actually toured with Lillian Gish for six years, showing the movie with him playing the score and her talking about it.  Today, he played the organ arrangement of the actual original score from 1920!  It was great and the (relatively small) audience loved it.

Well, I'd better post something instead of just sit here watching TV.

I just watched this week's episode of "Glee."  I know not many (any?) here watch it, but I just don't like what happened with Blane...he's dating the guy who terrorized Kurt.  If they wanted Blane and Kurt to break up, they can take their stories wherever they want, but why have this character come back in this way? :-\

I must say that the actor is a good actor and I'm sure that he's a nice guy, but it's his character's plot device that I object to.

Just my 2˘.

But no, I'm not done for the evening because I've got notes to write.  Let's at least have a frenzy while I'm doing that.

Margo always gets a drink called The Bucket, which has five different kinds of rum.
