Glad you liked the Gonda article, DR JRand58.  There's plenty more where that came from!

HERE, for example...   ;)

Holy Moly! It is LATE! I guess my morning workout and my morning internet surf took a very long time this morning.

Must go down now to check the mail (I saw the UPS truck nearby but wasn't sure if the fella dropped anything off here) and then fix myself something for lunch.

If at first you don't succeed, that's about average for me.

Heating up the house.  It's been sixty-two every morning and it takes about an hour to get it warmer.

I'm thinking the jog will be at ten, maybe a little earlier, but it looks very chilly out.

Nita Talbott certainly had an unusual look and was very good in BUNDLE OF JOY.  I also thought she was very good in THAT FUNNY FEELING in support of Sandra Dee.

IMBD says she played Maggie Prescott (the Kay Thompson role) in a TV pilot of FUNNY FACE - not the Sandy Duncan series.  She would have been great in that!  (Frank Aletter was in the Fred Astaire role of Dick).

DR SINGDAW.....that just gets scarier.  Hopefully MY MAN GODFREY will die a death on the road.

Listening to a Cy Coleman promo I found - filled with selections from his various and sundried shows - love Cy.

I haven't heard about The Little Orange Kitten today. Yesterday they called because they couldn't find her. Well, they had the kitten, but she wasn't in the database -- someone must have typed in a wrong number somewhere. I don't know if that means they can't adopt her out until they have their records corrected or not.

Adoptions start in about 45 minutes for today. I hope she goes quickly. If not, we will bring her home tonight so she doesn't have to sit all day in a cage tomorrow.

Too cold in the home environment.  However, the temperature has risen to sixty-six.

Watching BUNDLE OF JOY on TCM.  Debbie Reynolds is a lot fun - although Ginger Rogers was better in the original.  And I remember that Mr Eddie Fisher blamed his poor performance on the director.

Did he blame the director for BUTTERFIELD 8, too?

No doubt he'd have loved laying the blame at Joe Mankiewicz' feet for the Liz-Dick affair, too!

Here's hoping that DR Jeanne can find some moments of respite in the days ahead.

At least I don't think all the stores are sold out of respite, yet.

Still numbed up and trying to eat my lunch.

And trying also not to drool on myself.


Not necessarily in that order.

If we HAVE guests there will be photographs galore.  I've gotten a couple of e-mails saying a couple of regulars won't be here.  Ah, well, more spaghetti for everyone else.

Here's a little "White Christmas" for anyone needing a bit of seasonal cheer!

A friend of mine was working the floor at a newly opened Macy's out in the suburbs many years back.  It was near the holiday season, and for background music, they apparently only had one or two seasonal CDs, one of which was Barbra Streisand's first Christmas album.  So it got played.  And played.  Repeatedly.

So when I was in the supermarket yesterday and heard Babs's hyper-frenetic version of "Jingle Bells" come over the wire, I thought of him and couldn't stop smiling.

A former publicity client of mine, a famous comedian who will remain nameless because I don't want to embarrass him, once told me that the person we are talking about is "definitely the dumbest person in show business".

Dan the Man, I, too, loved, loved, loved the tour of Christmasvillagetown. And the narration was as good as the pictures. I have bookmarked the Youtube sequence and will watch it later.
