DR JOSE - most shocking news. I have not been asked to join a Death Group. I think I am glad about that.

DR DtM - yes don't look at it, just eat it. The combination of the orange icing, the orange flavored cake, and the cream filling is tres jolie....tres tres jolie.

Hmmm...I donno--that picture does not make it look too appetizing...

Just eat it!

DR Dan (the Man) - I did end up making a stop at the Comcast Center Saturday morning to watch "the wall". WOW!!!! I had originally only planned to stay for about five minutes... then about 25 minutes later... Again, WOW!!!

TOD: For home viewings, the most movies I've watched in one day were those of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. I used to treat myself to a Fred and Ginger day on the occasional weekend when I was living in Naples, Italy.

I'd watch:

The Gay Divorcee
Follow the Fleet
Top Hat
Swing Time
Carefree
Shall We Dance
The Barkleys of Broadway

Other weekends, I might do a "Die Hard" festival followed by a "Lethal Weapon" festival. During those years, there were only three movies in each series on home video. I'd also do the occasional "Rocky" festival and watch the first four movies.

TOD:

Going to the movies, the most I've seen in one day I saw in January 1968 with my college roommate and two friends. We were just back at school from Christmas break and wanted some entertainment on a Sunday afternoon.

So...we went to see "Valley of the Dolls", "Bonnie and Clyde" and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner."

The latter film didn't fare too well with any of us as we were so thrilled with "Bonnie and Clyde" that we regretted we hadn't stayed and watched it again. Also, "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" just wasn't as palatable as it might have been had we not seen "Bonnie and Clyde" on the same day.

Oh Allan Goldstein.....never mind.

No, and I'd actually prefer not to post his name. But if you take the guy who made "Hello Muddah" famous and add an 'a' to the surname, you can figure it out.

Allan Shermana?

As for the Topic of the Day....

The most I've done in one day was five, and that was during one of the "Oscar Nominee" screenings two(?) years ago:

11:00am - "Babel"
1:45pm - "The Queen"
3:45pm - "The Departed"
-Dinner Break-
7:00pm - "Letters from Iwo Jima"
9:45pm - "Little Miss Sunshine"

It was a good day of movie-going and movie-viewing. Only $30 and that included unlimited popcorn and drinks.

I purchased a few homegrown DVD's - four of the Lex Barker Tarzan films - DR MATTH mentioned them last week, albeit on OFFICIAL versions....and the two Gordon Scott Tarzan films.....

OK - I need to get out of the apartment for a bit. It's another gorgeous day here in NYC, and I should be a part of it.

I did the entire PLANET OF THE APES series in a marathon sitting once.
I did the first three STAR WARS films in a marathon, too.
I sat through THE SOUND OF MUSIC three times in one day, plus three times the next day.

I have also seen THEY SHOOT HORSES, DON'T THEY?
I have seen THE MARATHON MAN. (He's nothing like the muffin man who lives in Drury Lane).

I am watching YES, MY DARLING DAUGHTER on TCM. Frances Farmer did this play at Avondale during the early 1960's and I bet she was terrific. I had never seen the movie.

A daughter decides to go away for a weekend with her boyfriend who is leaving for two years. Her mother is against it. It just so happens that visiting the family that weekend is the man that the mother spent the night with back in the day ....

Roland Young and Fay Bainter are the mother and the man.....May Robson is the grandmother. They are all terrific. Even Jeffrey Lynn as the boyfriend is fine. The only weak link - Priscilla Lane as the daughter.

Oops....no Frances did that show at for the Madison County Dramatic Players group.

I've been taping Mad Men Season 3, but erasing them as soon as I've watched them. I think they've only aired 3 or 4 episodes so far.

BK, I've been recording them for a friend of mine, but not saving them once I've burned the disc. I'll ask if she still has the first disc with the first four episodes. There have only been two more episodes (I think). I'm sure that they're on Comcast On-Demand, but I don't remember how many episodes they keep. I'll check that tonight, too.

I think I will wander down to MTI and pick up the second draft of Act One of THE MOST HAPPY FELLA, head down to Toyland, and then go to the FR rehearsal.

I will check in from Toyland.

Ashland could use some mega vibes.

Quote

A fast-moving fire has scorched between 30 and 50 acres on the southern edge of Ashland and filled the skies over town with thick smoke and hot ash.

Witnesses said homes and structures had burned, but fire officials didn't have details yet. The burnt remains of a home in the 1500 block of Tolman Creek could be seen.

We are having a very, very windy day. So far the fire is on the outer edges of Ashland. We are the opposite direction of the wind & are not in danger.

I could see & smell the smoke from the hiking trails. Keith called to see if I was ok. I didn't realize the enormity of the fire until I was approaching my car and could see the red smoke. The fire was still on the other side of the Tolman Creek road as I left. I noticed buses at the elementary school as I drove by. I'm guessing they are, or were on standby to take the children elsewhere. I've been tracking the fire & it is above the school.

Best friend John and I did a very late lunch today, so I did some viewing before lunch and had some time to do viewing after lunch, too.

I watched one more NCIS episode before putting the box set back on the shelf (I've worked my way back around to where I had started with NCIS some months ago.) This was the episode where Michael Bellasario joins the cast in a story arc as Ziva's assistant. Story was pretty good with a marine's wife doing a softcore porn website to bring in extra money and she gets snuffed in the middle of a telecast. Good episode with a great surprise ending.
