We were up to 34 inches yesterday.  I don't believe there are four worse years.

Rodzinski, the only Shakey's I know for sure is here  near me.  We could meet there if you can get up to the Valley.

Which television home would you like to have lived in if it was real?

The Flintstones.

DR RODZINSKI that was one of my main problems with ONE DAY AT A TIME - it must have been an alternate universe Indianapolis.

Everytime Bonnie Franklin said something like Washinton Street or Block's Dept Store - I wanted to slap her again.

SWW what brand of food do you use?  The diet change should have helped, but then I have never had a Dalmatian.
DR Jane, Dalmations have a natural tendency to fart.  It's something we take in stride.  The elder grandlad thought it hilarious when he and Fletcher were riding in the car with us shortly after Fletcher joined us.  We just cracked the windows open and laughed as well.   ::)

I thought Alexis' studio, on the Carrington Manse grounds, was quite intimate yet posh.  It's too bad Krystal had such radical ideas about redecorating.

I had no quibbles about the two girls eliminated tonight from AMERICAN IDOL. Neither's voice was particularly strong nor was either very charismatic.

I think both guys who were let go had more to offer, and I'm sorry to see them go. There were less talented people who got to move on at least another week. Oh, well, that's the nature of the beast.

I found the eliminations (particularly the last guy) really cruel and sickening. I can imagine how unsettling it must have been for the contestants.

I liked the room George Burns could go into and watch a TV that could see what everyone else was doing. How handy would that be!

Since I can't possibly stay up to see who got dumped on AI, could someone IM me the names of the two guys eliminated.  You can skip the women, I thought they should all be eliminated.

Great upstairs neighbor, but the landlady was a bother.

JRand54, I watched THE STRANGER tonight. While it has many interesting, outre, and frenzied moments.  It seems to be a movie of isolated scenes and off-kilter performances which never quite hang together as a whole.  

It seems especially stinted in logical motivation and connective tissue.  A tad disjointed.  We never see any reason why Loretta Young would be in love with Orson Welles who's telegraphing his villainy from the get-go.  And the doctor character who appears without introduction and has some interesting scenes seems like he should be a jilted love interest who's part got cut to the bone.  

The most bizarrely wonderful performance is Billy House as Potter the checker-playing (and cheating) proprietor of the cafe/grocery.

While I'm glad I saw it, I was ultimately disappointed.  It did not live up to the memory of the last half hour I  had seen previously and the expectation I had for the first half.

I'm starving - I do have some stuff I could eat that is very non-caloric and with no fat grams, so perhaps I shall have a snackarooni.
