As for leftovers, yes and yes. I am a big fan of leftovers often finding them tastier than the first day.

Garlic mashed potatoes are too good to top with gravy.

Penny, your bed is ready and waiting. Be sure to let us know what time you will be here.

Michael Shayne, who advertised the hotel was a three star? Maybe they made that up.

Continuing with the report of my exciting day... Drank coffee as previously noted (Peets Moca-Java), wrote quite a bit, read some, oh - forgot - walked quite a bit in the early morn, took wonderdog to the park and watched him romp with another dog while the nice owner of other dog threw them balls high into the air with some ball throwing device, wrote some more, lunched, rested a bit as it's Sunday and that's what you're supposed to do, fed the dog his dinner and will now take him to park again, will go grocery shopping and hope to get back for the beginning of Chat or will join it when I get back. Please - no applause. ...Please. ...Well, if you must, I humbly bow.

I was terribly E and T today and I am ashamed! $:-\$

Spent most of the day at a car dealership with my neice Katie and her new husband Brian. I am co-signing for their new automobile and it just took foreeeeeeverrrrr! But we broke to have some sushi at the new Japanese place in south Salem and that was good...particularly since they paid! LOL!

Anyway, all done with that stuff now. I am going to try to finish my movie I started last night. It is called 12 O'CLOCK and is a 1957 Bollywood movie. Very film noir. Good film but the print they used for the DVD had certainly seen better days! But the plot is so intriguing that it doesn't bother me, and of course the music is great.

Now, BK, I am curious...why in the world, if you don't like and have never liked THE STAR, would you shell out money for the DVD?!

OH, and Jane, Bogie has to be one of the most beautiful cats in all of the Rogue Valley!!

My picture didn't show up?

MBarnum · « **Reply #97 on:** April 18, 2004, 05:14:27 PM »

And JRand53 that is a wonderful tip about the e-mail! I am going to try that. I would be terribly embarrassed if my address book were being used to send out virus e-mails.

bk · « **Reply #98 on:** April 18, 2004, 05:15:12 PM »

Because I didn't have to pay for the DVD - I was still using up credit. Plus, I like Julie and I like the scoring and I keep thinking I'll like it better.

I adore Giselle MacKensie. And I wouldn't mind actually having a copy of her Christmas album. Lovely, lovely voice, and criminally under-represented on CDs.

Dunno if I can make chat tonight...there's thunderstorms brewin' here in Minnesota, and the sky is looking really dark and downright scary. It was windy all day, and now it's eerie and calm...

The computer is gonna be shut down in a few minutes, as a safety precaution. Hopefully, this will pass quickly.

DR ROBIN maybe my sister can make a cassette of the album for you....I haven't figured out LP's to CD's yet.

I finally posted my review of Kritzer Time in the Kritzer Time area of this here board. I will post it on other locations tomorrow when I'm at work and my connection is faster.

TCB this is for you. I finally found a large version of my avatar (the picture of Ant and me at the pool table). Enjoy!

It's a great picture, BK, sort of like the late great Beryl Reid in JOSEPH ANDREWS!

What about Beryl Reid in STAR! (all I remember of JOSEPH ANDREWS is Lady Boobie and the naked (again!) Peter Firth).

I was out all day with my niece today. she made an unexpected trip to NY with her high school class. She didn't know she would be able to come here (from Minnesota) until Thursday evening. That being said, I don't have a complete list of grind houses, but I know that one of them was the Empire (originally called the Eltinge, named after Julian Eltinge, the premiere female impersonator of his time at the turn of the century)

Panni · « **Reply #106 on:** April 18, 2004, 05:32:00 PM »

Jane - I bet a quarter that the movie was CONNIE AND CARLA.

I like store credit, too!
Today I picked up PLANET OF THE APES ANNIVERSARY EDITION with DTS SOUND!, ALIAS SEASON TWO, LOONEY TUNES: BACK IN ACTION, the aforementioned PARAPLUIES and TOKYO GODFATHERS.

There's just not enough time in the day to take them all in! Especially when working on a deadline for THE LITTLE PRINCE, HALF A SIXPENCE, FOR ME AND MY GAL, LOVE FINDS ANDY HARDY, IN THE GOOD OLD SUMMERTIME, STAR!, THE JOLSON STORY and JOLSON SINGS AGAIN!

Chat in a mere fifteen minutes. My SS arrived - excellent issue. I'm going to read Ben's thoughts on KT and I suggest everyone else do the same.

bk · « **Reply #110 on:** April 18, 2004, 05:47:43 PM »

Beautiful thoughts, Ben, and I'm very appreciative. You meant to say Kritzer Time in your last paragraph, but said Benjamin Kritzer instead, which you can edit when you post to amazon and barnesandnoble.com. Now, everyone go read Ben's lovely words.

I can attest to the sublime loveliness of Bogie the cat - and he's sweet and friendly and so dear! I do love him. I can also attest to the raucous, piercing quality of DR Jane's laugh... worse in public - ohmygosh, don't get her started! Really something, ummm, individual, shall we say?

And I reckon, with a ten-hour drive, I'll arrive in Ashland around 6 or 7 pm. Shall I bring anything?

Pogue and Panni - thanks muchly for your comments yesterday in re: beginning screenwriter. Especially Wordplay.com will be very valuable, I think.

Now, how d'you get to the chat stuff???

LOL-that may be equally as bad. We passed on it as those guys in white face look a bit creepy.

Ben your avatar blown up is very nice.

MBarnum, thank you.

Okay I can only stay a minute. But I don't want this to be the lowest number of posts ever ... so I'm posting.

I loved that dance (I think it was page 2). Totally cool.
