I am pondering DR JOSE's experiences today and wondering if indeed his dreams were prescient.

What is the difference between a rib tickler and a French tickler?

Two martinis.

If you are shopping at the Goodwill Store and you see four chairs that you think might fit around your game table, do NOT go home and measure and expect to find the chairs there when you go back.

Thanks for the tip. :)

The new freecreditreport.com commercial (in the car) doesn't have the fun and freshness of the other ones.  This one just seems bad-natured without the playfulness, where the others were bad-natured and playful.

I don't know, but in Dublin, I had to use the mens' room at a pub because the ladies' was out of service. And this is what I saw:

Is that really necessary? I didn't notice any Irishmen being particularly "fragrant"...


Well, at least they had the option of purchasing the cologne. ;)

Now I REALLY want a Klondike bar, thanks DR SINGDAW.

Do you suppose Vend A Scent spritzes you with cologne or gives you a handful or a towelette?  I think I want the Polo.

Vixmom, thanks for the update.  If he can't leave the house, at least he can make some progress on those creepy crawling things.

I ordered both THE NAKED PREY and THIS SPORTING LIFE on DVD yesterday.

Two excellent movies and in the case of the latter, a near-masterpiece in my opinion.

Yes, the Carolina theater played GONE WITH THE WIND as a roadshow when MGM stupidly blew it up to 70mm and lopped off the top and bottom to make a widescreen movie out of it. It looked weird beyond belief, but it was the first time I had heard that magnificent score coming out of the speakers all around us at the theater.

Good thing today was a day off, otherwise I would have had to call out sick. I was feeling much better yesterday but it seems both my roommate and I have relapsed. We were supposed to go see Cloverfield today but instead have made like couch potatoes and are catching up on our tv viewing.

I am happy to report I have finished the last of the Agnès Varda movies and their (unending) bonus features. She's very talented and has a sure cinematic eye, but except for CLEO FROM 5 TO 7, the films are rather sterile and closed in for my taste. Still, I'm glad to have seen them all and to have been introduced to CLEO which is one of the greats, I think.

I had a little less than two hours left in the afternoon, so I immediately put in PIONEERS OF TELEVISION.

Rather than go in the order of the segments on the disc, I started with the variety shows. Enjoyed seeing all of the excerpts (and wish there had been more clips especially from YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS which got a big build-up but not nearly enough clips. Not enough Berle clips either to show how wild and raucous he was). The subjects of their focus were well chosen and worthy of mention. But I have to say there wasn't anything in the broadcast I didn't already know from my own research or previous specials on the history of TV comedy/variety.

Next, I picked sitcoms, but didn't have enough time to see the entire show. I just got about 2/3 of the way through - up to the beginning of the discussion of THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.

I have to say that I'm glad they had recorded some of these interviews with people like Red Skeleton before they passed away.

Tonight I'll jump back to the first episode - Late Night and then do the final segment if there's time.
