Whoever owns the lot across the street never clears their weeds.  It's the top of a ravine and I'm sure they don't think of coming over here to clear it up.  Anyway, It's really overgrown and has a lot of damage from the storm.  I drug the huge limb over there and left it.  After all my branches are taken with the garbage tomorrow, I'll call the weed patrol and report the lot.  I hadn't done it sooner because I thought it may be providing shelter for some wild life, but there's a lot of damage and it should be cleared out.  So, I'll report it.  I consider my limb the price for making me look at the mess all summer. If the city has to clear it and all my branches are gone, maybe they won't figure out it came from me  ;D

Your vibes worked! It is pouring. The best rain we've had here in a couple of years. I hope it lasts a long time tonight.

NASHVILLE was audacious, wasn't it?

Yes, it was. Thanks for the reminder. Though Altman made other pictures in the style, few worked quite as well.

I haven't seen Nashville in a very long time. If memory serves Altman wanted it to be a 2 part film. Something along the ways of calling Nashville Blue and Nashville Red. I believe the footage was shot and Altman for years before he finally passed away he was looking for financing to put the extended version together.

I thought I may have broken my arm tonight.  I was finishing cutting up the branches from the storm last week to put out for trash collection and essentially had a tree (well a really big limb) fall on my forearm.   I could move my fingers but it really hurt.  I immediately iced it and after a couple hours it's feeling almost as good as new. I'm sure I'll have a bruise, but luckily I don't think I really hurt it badly

Thank goodness it isn't broken and feels better!!!!

Ditto and ditto!!

Having praised Terry Gilliam earlier, I have to announce that I just had to remove "The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus" from the DVD player. Beautiful to look at, too convoluted to pay attention to. Will try to watch the rest tomorrow.

I can also recommend a documentary about Gilliam and his abortive attempt to film a version of Don Quixote. Johnny Depp was in it. (Not Quixote) It original was supposed to be a "making of..." documentary but became something else.

Altman was always looking for financing. That he got as many of his movies made is still something of a miracle.

"Lost in La Mancha" was great.

Aahhh - we've just turned off the AC and opened the windows!  I know it won't last forever, but sure feels good for now.

Thank you, DR Vixmom!  I think it's time to sleep off my busy day and get ready for tomorrow.  My dear DH has agreed to drive me to Cincinnati to meet a friend at the Vera Bradley store.  He puts up with so much...

It's time for me to leave work.  Tonight is my heavy TV watching night...AND I'm recording a couple of shows for friends, so I need to be home to make sure that those (at least) record. 

Until later!
