I want to see some other things.  I was hoping for a tour of the harbor, where the twin towers were, Macys and the Empire State Building.  I just don't know if I'm going to have enough time!  

I'm planning on flying up Sunday morning and home Friday afternoon.  That really only leaves me 4 whole days to see everything.  I was going to come home on Thursday and decided to give myself another day.  I'm glad I did.  I can't stay away forever.  I have friends who will look in on Mom for me but I can't expect them to do it forever.  I'm already deep in their debt for the 4 days I'll be in Utah.  

Oh before I forget, I want to take a carrage ride through Central Park also.

Danise, you shouldn't have even the slightest hint of trouble fitting in all those things you listed and more on your NY trip.  Macy's is only a block from the Empire State, and everything else is very, very easily accessible via Metro services or on foot.  I was pleasantly surprised how much I was able to see in the 3-1/2 days I had there.

My, my, my (that is three mys) we iz havin' a slow nacht here at haineshisway.com.  Perhaps everyone is off reading Kritzer Time - that would be coolsicious and acceptable.  If everyone is off doing other things, then there's be some bitch-slapping tonight, daddy-o.

In a few short posts I shall be hitting another landmark.  Of course, why I'd want to hit a landmark when the landmark has never done a damned thing to me is anyone's guess.

Charles Pogue, aw yes, that is a great line from THE MAJOR & THE MINOR.  I need to watch MIDNIGHT and experience your favorite line for myself.  And guess what I just happen to have saved on TIVO?  Now I can’t wait to watch it.  Better not to have seen BACHELOR MOTHER at all then to have seen the Reynolds-Fisher version.  They were married at the time and someone thought it would be cute to remake the movie with them.  It is amazing how the same dialogue which had been so full of charm & humor when delivered by Ginger Rodgers & David Niven had suddenly become rather mundane & boring.  

On another subject, have you tried diapers at night for poor Cully?

Diapers for Cully sounds like a Clifton Webb movie.

I got that error message, too.  If it happens again, I'll drop our webhosts a note.  Usually it's just a momentary glitch.

They're dropping like flies.  It MUST be Kritzer Time right now.  However will I achieve my new landmark all by lonesome.

I watched all three hours of SCHINDLER'S LIST tonight, not on the recently released DVD but on my old reliable laserdisc which is really a sharp transfer with excellent surround sound (though the music sometimes overpowers the dialogue). Yep, wept when Schindler broke down near the end just as I have always done.

No one here but us chickens.  Everyone must be on Kritzer Time.  I'm going to have to forge ahead all by my self, I can see that.  Now, if all the errant and truant show up tomorrow and weren't reading Kritzer Time, well, woe, I say, woe to them, and whoa to them as well.

I didn't get any responses to my query about the Jacques Tati movies. Does no one like them, or have folks not seen them?

I like Tati, but don't love Tati.  Sometimes I love Tati but I find the films uneven.  The brilliant bits are truly brilliant but then some stuff just falls flat for me.  I love Mon Uncle, that's my favorite.

Tati: I loved "Traffic" when I first saw it but found "Monsieur Hulot's Holiday" only funny in patches. I have not seen Mon Oncle (but love the theme music).
Fortunately quite a few French movies are released here and many of them on video/DVD.

I think five French films are released in the United States in any given year, along with three calling birds and a partridge in a pear tree.

I heard from someone who did it that it took FOREVER. I can put you directly in touch with her, if you like  and she can tell you all about it.

Well, I've caused enough trouble for one night, and am going to bed.  
BTW (by the way in internet lingo), I AM in the middle of one of the Kritzer books . . . but have always been an exceptionally slow reader.  For me to get through all three may take as much time as it did for Benjamin to live all those years

I am assuming BK's 3000! If only it were 3000 books sold.

3000 books sold, now that would be something.  I do know that the first book has sold more than you'd think - I personally have gone through four orders (100 books per order), most of which were sales.  Plus, it always seems to sell thirty to forty copies per quarter, so it hasn't done badly at all for a first book from a small publisher.  The second book hasn't done as well until recently, when sales have really picked up.  In fact, I'm down to two copies and must reorder before the UCLA book fair.  At the rate Kritzer Time is selling I may have to reorder that as well.  I've already gone through more than half of the 100, more than that if you count what I gave to Bookfellows.

Keep posting, bk. I can't leave the party before your grand 3000, but I'm seeing triple (like your books). I a tired person. I fall down soon. I must brush teeth, take wonderdog out to pee and take off clothes for soft yummy bed.
Say interesting things in many posts, bk. Otherwise "p" aka "ps" aka "as" aka "ams" will fall asleep at the computer.
