That is a fine picture of Mr Mario Lopez - but the cover of that book looks almost as if it were Photo Shopped in some way....it doesn't quite look right.

Thanks so much for these vibes, DR Singdaw, and for making them my favorite color!

I'm taking it a little easy this morning, aiming to show my face downstairs about 9am or so.

We did see Valley of the Dolls last night. I had never seen it on a big screen so it was lots of fun but they played a DVD instead of using film and a DVD on a big screen is not necessarily the best way to watch a camp fest. The picture was muddy and stretched. I don't know what they use to broadcast the film, a DVD player or some other kind of special equipment but it seems like it should be calibrated or adjusted for the size of the screen.

Oh, well. We still had a great time. Hedda was very, very funny last night.

Next Thursday is Trog, Dear Joan's last feature film.

The lineup in May is quite good, Mildred Pierce, Queen Bee, All About Eve, The Women and Auntie Mame.

TOD - CD(car) on the solo part of my drive yesterday, I started a new audiobook - Diane Ackerman's The Zookeeper's Wife, narrated by Suzanne Toren.  Not even through the first disc and I'm already recommending it.

While waiting at the airport, and before I went to sleep last night, I got well into reading the 4th Maisie Dobbs mystery, Messenger of Truth, by Jacqueline Winspear.

This is not a weekend for DVDs in my life, unless any of our speakers use them in their sessions.

Sadly, none of us thought to bring a camera last night.  We had a wonderful visit.  They both seem very happy and they look great; although I must confess that Ann seems to be getting a big belly.   :)

Ginny, I assume Ginny is short for Virginia.  Did I ever tell you that my mom's name was Virginia.  She was called Ginny by some family members, but others, like her older sister, called her Din; which was short for Dinna.  Any ideas of where that came from?

DR BEN - Trog may star Ms Joan Crawford, but it is produced by Mr Herman Cohen so there are some physique models in the movie, too.

Most notably featured is Mr John Hammill who in a change of pace is the SECOND person in the movie to take off his pants.

For those who like a reading challenge: Danish write Peter Hoeg! I think I've read all his works that have been translated.  Engaging material and strange worlds of imagination and bizarre realities are presented.  Most people are only familiar with "Miss Smila.....".  The book is more complex than the movie.  "Borderlines" is the most disturbing of books and his "new" book "The Quiet Girl" might be enjoyed by our musical Kimlets.

In case anyone's interested here is the agenda for my next day and a half:

AAUW/Ohio conference/convention

Actually, I should say my next half and a day, as today's festivities don't start 'til lunchtime  ;)
