I had never seen, only heard of, Lost Horizon (1973), so was very pleased when DR Michael S. mentioned yesterday that it can be viewed in its entirety on YouTube.

Here's the main page link.

Sad, but funny, but mostly sad:

A friend told me yesterday about something his teenage daughter said regarding Walter Cronkite:

"Oh, yeah...he did the voice of Tony the Tiger, didn't he?"

re: last week's THE FASHION SHOW (episode 11)

SPOILERS

DR MattH, I was curious about who you thought had the best collection, who you want to win, who you think should win, and who you think will win?

Personally before the final fashion show i liked all 4 designers, although i liked anna
 the least. I thought that daniella was obnoxious at times. But i liked many of her
 designs. I thought reco was good and fast. And good at sewing. And while there
 were a few of his designs i hated (red dress), i thought he was great. And i loved
 loved james paul. To me he was the most talented, even though he did weird stuff
 at times. Anna sort of grew on me. Did not care for her in the beginning. But she
 did start doing some interesting stuff.
After watching the finale,  my opinions sort of changed. I loved loved anna's collection.
My only complaint is that it was not cohesive. But there were so many of her pieces that
 i would love to wear. I thought daniella's collection was just okay. I was sort of
disappointed. I would not want to wear many of her clothes. I was also a bit
 disaapointed that reco spent so much time doing research. He could have done
better. As for James paul, i think he is brilliant. The most talented designer, with such
 a vision. But i don't see women wearing most of those clothes.
So IMO anna had the best collection. And i see her winning, especially since it's
 the public's vote. Unless the voters had pre-conceived favorites before the finale
 and are voting for those (i have not seen who was most popular). But to me anna
is a people's designer. So i totally see the people loving her work.  I am unclear
how people will see james paul. He's obviously talented and i could see the judges
 giving him the $10K. But i don't really see the fans voting for him. He's great. But
 his clothes are not accessible to regular people. I can see a lot of fans disliking
 daniella. Will be interesting to see what happens.jkjl iuo oiu iuo oiu oiuoiuuoiiuoiuo u iooiu oiu oiu oiu oiu oiu oiu oiuoiuiuo one two oi oui oiu oiu oiu lkjlkjlkljlkjlkjl kjkljkj

Another cool morning that won't last long. Already feels a bit clammy outside.

If a salesman says to me, "This offer is only good for today," I walk away.

Me, too!  I always tell them that if the deal is only good for a day, then I can afford to live without it.

THE FASHION SHOW:
















James Paul's was by far my favorite collection. There were pieces that could be adapted to other wardrobe that a woman already has, and despite its lack of color, I just thought the designs and fabrics were stunning. Anna's all screamed retread to me; they were very attractive but were all modifications of things we had already seen. I wanted something new. Daniella's didn't fit well and just didn't appeal to me.

No UPS delivery this morning, so I may be having another day off today. I have a couple of things I want to watch - some new, some revisits - but all can be put on hold if something to review comes.

Right now it's not too bad here in NYC. Tomorrow we are supposed to have rain and sticky humid weather but for now we are spared. We have had a rather mild summer. I wonder what the fall will be like?

I was in Chicago when they landed on the moon.....and it was very surreal watching it live on TV!

Thanks goodness foir DVRs. So much TV I want to see tonight and thankfully, many are repeated during the early morning hours.

I also have already watched this week's NURSE JACKIE, so that takes another possibly recprded show out of the mix.

I was at home (in reference to the Moon Landing) in Coon Rapids, MN, staying up late (although it was summer and I didn't have to go to school the next day) watching with rapt fascination. While everyone is entitled to their own opinions it is amazing the lengths to which people will go to deny that the Moon Landing really happened.
