We won't be watching anything tonight, at least in the home environment.

We are going to a Halloween-type party away from the madness of the Village and Chelsea. First, as a warm-up we will watch

It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

and then the program I'm looking forward to will close out the evening

The Paul Lynde Halloween Special

from 1976. Margaret Hamilton makes an appearance as the Wicked Witch of the West!

Hooray!

We are in charge of bringing appropriately-themed cookies or cupcakes or the like. I will be off on my lunch hour to the Greenmarket to find such appetizing delicacies.

For more of my more candid thoughts about last night's show, see the very end of last night's posts.

Happy All Hallow's Eve!



We are having our annual Halloween Bar-B-Q (sic) today at noon.  Costumes are encouraged and will be judged for some sort of prizes.  I made 10 lbs of potato salad (which weighs, actually, about 20 lbs) and it was all I could do to keep myself from devouring a pound of it last night.  This isn't a potluck!  The rest of the meal will be storebought burgers (meat/veggie/soy/turkey) and dogs (ditto) with lettuce, tomato, onions, buns and soft drinks or water.  Brownies will be the dessert. Volunteers to bake brownies were given the mix, but they had to supply their own eggs and water/oil.

I'll be glad when the workday is done.  I have never had more weekly programming stashed on my DVR cache than I have now.  I haven't even watched Sunday's "Desperate Housewives" yet!  Gadzooks, but I have a lot of TV to watch.

Happy Halloween!

I agree with BK. That sounds so odd that Richie Cunningham does not have more to do in Happy days the Musical. His family was the show!

And it has been a while since i've seen the tv show. But i have no idea who pinky is!

Thanks to JRand58 and everybody else who offered suggestions or condolences yesterday on my ailing FAX machine.

I tried the suggestions but, unfortunately, none of them worked.

The lights keep flashing, so unless I want to spend more to repair it than it's worth, my FAX is toast.

 :'(

A jaunt over to Costco next week is definitely in order.



Druxy you may have legal recourse with your electric company.  Something similar happened to my in-laws and they received a settlement.  Of course there's was really bad--literally all of their appliances (like, refrigerator, oven, etc.) had to be replaced.

What city did they live in?

I'm in Los Angeles (until late March).  I called the LA DWP and they're attitude was, "Tough"!

Thanks for the suggestion though.

I found that peculiar also Jennifer that Ritchie was missing from most of hte show...

Oddly we still get Happy Days in reruns up here along with Andy Griffin... Pinky was a no-nonsense type of lady who Fonzie was apparently attracted to. She left but they remained good friends.

If i remember correctly Suzy Quatro played Leather Tuscadero  and Roz Kelly played Pinky Tuscadero.

According to IMDB... Roz has not done a lot since the 1980s.  they were biker girls...

I do vaguely remember a pop song that was in the late 70s or early 80s called Stumblin' In by Suzy Quatro

I have mixed opinions on the tv version of Happy Days. I liked the early years but I did not care for the show in the last couple years of its run. IT seemed to have lost its charm.

IMHO, Laverne and Shirley jumped the shark when they had Laverne move to California and Cindy Williams had left teh show.

DR Druxy, sorry your surge protector didn’t work.  Do you need to replace it, or did it just not work for some odd reason?

The tech said the surge protector was fine.  He didn't even try to sell me another one.  This was probably just too big of a surge.

Back from the long jog and must now get ready to ship some packages, attend a rehearsal, and go to a meeting, after which I shall return.

Finally back from the Phillies Victory Parade.  The crowd was HUGE and we were packed like sardines on the sidewalk. But it was a very cool crowd and we all had a great time!

GO PHILLIES!

I came back to the office to find the strangest of all Amazon packages.  In the first one I opened, there was the Truman Capote's A CHRISTMAS MEMORY DVD I mentioned the other day.  But it looks like a bootleg that you would buy at a flea market--plain see-through case with no artwork--just a plain printed label with a barcode.  The DVD is the same with a very generically printed label.  I take more time making labels on my home-made DVDs.  I'm not holding out much hope for the overall viewing quality of this DVD.

I was puzzled by the size of the other package--I was expecting it to hold just a CD but it was large enough for a calander.  I ordered what I thought was a special edition of Janelle Monae's METROPOLIS but it turned out to be an LP.  Two LPs actually--somehow I must have ordered two copies.  Oy!  It's no fun going senile...
