Jrand - Toby and Dylan are awake, but they've become impossibly pushy when it comes to treats.

Oh wait, they were like that before the movie shoot, too.

I asked them what the movie's about, and Toby said "Well, it's about these corgis..."

Dylan said "It's about a half-hour." Dylan is the funny one.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I just had one of those yummilicious Stardbucks breakfast sandwiches for breakfast... without even having to head down the block to the Starbucks to get one! And how, you may ask, was this all possible? Well....

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #39 on:** March 15, 2008, 07:08:44 AM »

Just as my roommate, Jim, and I were heading into the subway stop at 50th and 8th Ave., a vaguely familiar man came up to me and asked, "Excuse me... Do you have children?" -Umm.. No, I don't.

It turned out to be the night manager for the Starbucks down the street, and he had these big bags filled with various Starbucks goodies. Even though they have much longer shelf lifes, they only keep things on display and in store for two to three days (depending on the item). Well, he had a whole bag of the various breakfast sandwiches, as well a couple of their Rice Krispie Treats and a couple of slices of their Banana Walnut Loaf. He said that he normally bags up the leftovers from the day, and then as he's heading to the subway, he usually gives them away to the homeless people he sees while he's walking. Alas, he said he didn't come across anyone last night - not even some of his "regulars" - so he was offering them to people on the subway. The reason he asked me if I had children was just in case I didn't feel like cooking them breakfast in the morning.

So, needless to say, I happy and hesitantly took his offerings, and we headed home.

-And just a few minutes, I popped one of the ham, egg and cheese sandwiches in the microwave for a minute, then transferred over to the preheated 400 degree oven to crisp up a bit and to finish cooking. And, thus, breakfast!

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #40 on:** March 15, 2008, 07:11:47 AM »

Of course, after last night, I think some coffee - Starbucks or otherwise - would probably be a good thing too this morning.

*Although, actually, I'm fine. I ate rather well last night, so I had plenty of food in my system to complement my wine consumption. -And Becco's grissini are just too good too resist. And the two bottles of wine were shared between four people, so... All is well in head and stomach this morning.

TMI?

I hope that the light of day hasn't revealed too much damage in your neighborhood and workplaces, and that your friends and loved ones were also spared the brunt of the storm last night.

Saturday morning greetings! It was very foggy when I got up just before 8am, but that seems to be clearing. Today is the first day of a 3-day weekend for me - nothing planned until 3pm, when I'm scheduled to sell books at the AAUW/Middletown booksale (as of 10pm last night, we'd already made $3800).

Vibes to DR Edi and her DH Greg as they deal with storms and kidney stones - yikes!

My cousin lives about 50 miles west of Atlanta and I'm wondering if they've been effected by the storms. I think he's out of state on business this weekend, but don't know if his fiance is with him or not. I'll try to call him later. He and his brother (who lives in Japan) are due here Monday evening to visit their mom (my mother's sister, who lives in the same retirement community).

I also love her cameo in "Paris When It Sizzles" because no one else coulld have gotten quite that effect!

Shortly I shall be on my way to the rehearsal. Routes have been checked online and supposedly there are no construction problems or any blockages - woe to them if they are lying.

Good morning!

The rain they forecasted for yesterday never happened, but we got a shower a little while ago, and I suspect it's going to shower on and off all day today. I'll be inside doing a variety of things, so I don't care if it rains or not.

I have SHANGHAI EXPRESS on laserdisc and watched it about six months ago. It's a very entertaining movie. No wonder it was such a big hit in its day.

BLONDE VENUS is definitely my favorite from her early star period. She goes from good girl to bad girl, from rags to glamour: what's not to like? I also adore THE SCARLET EMPRESS.

DESTRY RIDES AGAIN is one of the great comeback vehicles of all time, and she's marvelous in it.

I've mentioned here many times how much I love the often denegrated Hitchcock thriller STAGE FRIGHT. Deitrich is one of the reasons it's so wonderful.

I saw A FOREIGN AFFAIR for the first time within the last year. She's wonderful in it, stealing the show from everyone else. Also love her 50s western RANCHO NOTORIOUS which I recorded off TCM onto a DVD-R.

And WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION and JUDGMENT AT NUREMBURG are both wonderful showcases for her. Can't believe she didn't get more recognition for her roles in both.
