This isn't your parent's Crayola box!



And how long before there's a lawsuit on that one when some kids eats it and gets sick?

Good morning!

One more day of cool mornings and very warm afternoons. Our high today again will be in the mid-80s. But by the weekend, it will be much cooler.

There is of course a Portland connection to Project Runway, which we weren't aware of until we tuned in for the first time this season last week.  I had a gig last night and so missed the finale, but it made the Oregonian today, if that's any indication of the outcome.  ;)

It's turned very cold and rainy here in PDX.  I must try, try, try to finish up the Alice Faye 2 boxed set today and get the review written.  Does anyone else think she looks like she could be June Lockhart's sister?

I hadn't had a chance to watch PROJECT RUNWAY yet, but USA TODAY revealed the name of the winner. Still I'd like the see the winning fashions so I'll likely watch it at some point today.

Today I'll be beginning the Criterion Eclipse box set of Kenji Mizoguchi "Fallen Women" movies. Nice thing about these is that you get the movie but are not inundated with extras. The movies in the box are all of short duration as well, so I'll likely watch one today but two tomorrow and finish it on Saturday. (Four films in all.)

So sorry to read about Edie Adams. If I had time, I'd re-watch CINDERELLA with Julie Andrews to see her witty turn as the Fairy Godmother.

Thank goodness.  I was afraid the CW had tricked me somehow.

I got up at eight, but that was too early to get up so I just stayed in bed until eight-forty.  Now I'm up.

DR Cilla,

VIBES TO YOUR FATHER!!!

I don’t know if our library has a free download.  I have never listened to an audio book.  I’m never in the car long enough except on trips & Keith isn’t interested in listening to a book.  When do you listen to the audio?

PROJECT RUNWAY

SPOILAGE

Jibberjabber, teeter-totter, stingclaw fodder, pitter-patter, garlic dill pickles and root beer would really hit the spot -- don't ask me what spot, though. Moo moo, oink oink hee-haw marjorie daw, singdaw's sister I guess.  After seeing the runway show in action last night, I have to say I'd have been fine with any of the designers being declared the winner.  I never thought I would ever be one to defend Kenley, but I have to say I think the judging panel was a bit too narrowly focused on Kenley's hand-painted fabric and not on her designs.  So what if other designers had a line of all hand-painted fabrics a season or three back?  Do they own a copyright on handpainted fabric?  No...it's been with us for centuries.  So if Kenley's fabric was the issue, why wasn't ALL fabric an issue since ALL designers use fabric.  No...it's DESIGN here that matters and not whether it's handpainted or uses feathers (Chris March used feathers last season, too).  In truth, I rather liked Kenley's collection better than the others.  SUE ME!  I also liked Laura Bennett's collection better than Michael's or Jeffrey's two seasons ago....but I couldn't stand Laura, so I was happy Jeffrey won!   I liked Korto's collection, but I wasn't wild about her fabrics.  And NO ONE mentioned the obscene shortness of that ultra-mini skirt?  REALLY?  Oh, my!   Leanne was a good choice and she had some wonderful elements, but Michael Kors was right about those petals (I think Leanne thought of them as "waves") being a bit too much.  Still, she showed great versatility and variety in her line and she was a deserving winner, just as either of the other two would have been.  IMO, of course.   Don't snark me, I'm skittish!  What was that?  You fiend!  Slapjaw, snapdraw, scrapclaw!  I'll blame Jose.

Sorry to hear about Edie Adams.  My dad had quite the crush on her when she was on TV back in the '50s and '60s.
