It would make things very icy here :)

...And I guess everyone else in my apartment must have an extremely bad sense of smell - or mine is just very sensitive (which it can be at times, but...)  -When I came home today, as soon as I opened the door, all I could smell was rotting garbage.  Someone - and I know who it is - threw out a whole bunch of rotting vegetable from the fridge this morning.... and should have just taken the garbage out then since it was full too!  UGH!

TOD (amended) - today I received a shipment from Amazon that contained, among other things, a new CD for my car - Forbidden Broadway: Rude Awakening.

DR elmore - Just leave a roll of packing tape and mailing labels in front of your neighbor's door with a note attached to it: "Well, I guess I would like your help after all."

Then I would have had to listen to her repellent claims of innocence and misrepresentation.

DR elmore-I understand why you declined, however, she is either innocent or feeling guilty for having reported you.  Either way she seems to be sorry & you have exhausted yourself working so hard.  Help would have been nice.

The bitch can act innocent and outraged or guilty all she wants; she's pulled enough crap in this building over the past 20 years to others that no one's fooled any more, and she's shown enough ugliness toward me for the past three weeks that I have no urge to be in her company.

I have been watching the first season of "Gidget" (which we watched religiously in 1965).  I'm seeing my older sister's wardrobe in every episode!

Although it was mostly filmed on the Screen Gems lot  (Mr. Wilson's house was the exterior, and it was Hazel's kitchen), they do some nice 1965  location shots occasionally.  I actually thought life and high school were going to be that way.  Little did I know.......


By the 5th episode the exterior of the house was different, but it was still Hazel's kitchen.  So far Marty Milner and Harvey Korman have appeared in some episodes.  A different world .....

I assume you've checked out the video clips on the Guthrie offerings here?

DR Singdaw - I had not seen the clips because I was at work, but just watched them.  Now I really want to go to the Guthrie and am very jealous of my friend Sue.  She's going on a backstage tour there, but it's scheduled at a time when I have a pre-conference to attend.

DR elmore, I just worry about you working so hard & all the stress you have been going through.  I suppose she would just stress you out more, even if she did help.

TOD:

CD:
2 CDs purchased from today from Roberta Shore and two CDs purchased today from Frank Stallone.

I am currently listening to "RANDY BOONE AND ROBERTA SHORE: THE SINGING STARS OF THE VIRGINIAN". It is fun.

Things I learned today:

Frank Stallone is much better looking in real life then in photos. In fact he is hot! He could have me any time he wanted...if he were so inclined.

John Wesley Shipp is rather tall and has the biggest hands I have ever seen on a human being.

The cast of LAND OF THE GIANTS are about as nice of people you could ever meet.

Molly Bee is a total sweetheart, despite all of her difficulties in life.

John Saxon is rarely asked about his one Bollywood movie appearance, and was quite suprised that I knew who Shammi Kapoor and Dharmendra were.

Cynthia Myers is still stacked! And one of the sweetest gals ever.

In the mail yesterday (I didn't check it until earlier this afternoon) were two CDs that I had ordered:  Betty Buckley's "Quintessence" and the 2007 original cast recording of Happy Days[/b].  And today (I just checked my mail again), the original cast recording of Take Flight.  I've already listened to "Quintessence" and it's very good...in my humble opinion. :)

Thanks for the report.  I take such pleasure in your knowledge and joy (as I'm sure the celebrities do).
