I've begun reading Erik Larson's THE DEVIL IN THE WHITE CITY, an excellent book about the Chicago World's Fair of 1893, the second act opening of SHOW BOAT.  Fascinating Chicago history and architecture, but serial killer H H Holmes, who put quite a cramp in the festivities, is quite unsettling.  I don't think I'll be reading it before bed.

Will there be a harpist?

Time will tell....since I am not directing, my guess is they may go for an accordion.  :P

I bought this book when DR GINNY suggested it.  Yes, quite unsettling.....

Has anyone seen the previews or A preview of HOLLYWOODLAND aka HOLLYWOOD KRYPTONITE?

The preview is online, but surely it's opening soon, somewhere.   8)

Finished the always creepy and effective THE OMEN. I will probably be satisfied with the laserdisc for the time being. More than likely won't watch it again for a year or more.

I recorded GREEN MANSIONS off TCM during the early moring hours, so I watched that tonight. It was the first time for me. Parts of it were lyrical and beautiful. Other parts were so sluggish I thought the film would burn up in the projector because things were moving so slowly and uneventfully.

I suspect this is a book that would be near-impossible to capture on film.

DEADWOOD had me on the edge of my seat tonight. One horrific death made me jump, and then tension was so thick, it was unbearable. Next week, the season finale.

After that, two made-for-HBO movies will bring the series to a close. What a shame! A show this good should have run for years more.

And GREY'S ANATOMY cast its usual spell of enchantment with its uncanny mixture of humor and drama. Yep, moved to tears once again by the end.

And I recorded tonight's ENTOURAGE which I'll watch at some point tomorrow.

Of course, Fox unveils two season premieres tomorrow night. Their season starts earlier than the other networks.

What a nice day. My favorite neighbors of all time came up to their cabin for the day - nice hanging with them. I gave them salad and frozen blueberry yogurt, made from blueberries I picked last week. Lovely weather. The forest is so beautiful this time of year!!! Stream is dangerously low - one of the other streams about a mile down the hill is completely dry. Hope we get some rain before the salmon come in mid-September...

The gathering at Fred and Skip's sounds like it was great fun. Glad y'all had such a good time!

When it looks like someone is going to go over, I'll interrupt them to say you have about 10 minutes or 5 minutes left, that seems to work most of the time.

Where's the fun in that?? ;)

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.
