I enjoyed "My Old Man and the Sea," as I recall. Wasn't it supposed to be made into a movie at some point?

TOD: Stuff for classes: "The Craft of Research," "Dangerous Games: The Uses and Abuses of History," and "The Schools We Need and Why We Don't Have Them." I'm hoping to squeeze in David Sedaris' "Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk" to keep my sanity.

And I don't think I would want to smoke anything concupiscible. But maybe that's just me. Am having to take drug tests for prospective jobs. Wonder how it would register on the charts.

It turns out that I am not working today after all.

Will you play in the snow?

I rad the Louis Edmonds book about a year or two ago; I was interested in CANDIDE and ERNEST IN LOVE and they were hardly mentioned. The book appeared to be primarily for DARK SHADOW fans, and I was never into the series. The person with great CANDIDE stories was the actor Conrad Bain, who played several roles including that of the Very Old Inquisitor. He loved the show and liked talking about it.

Conrad Bain of Maude and Different Strokes?

The very same. What a nice man!

Thursday morning greetings!  Fr. Richard is attending his clergy meeting this morning and I'm easing into the day.  There is a gathering for wives this afternoon, at which I plan to be as inconspicuous as I possibly can.

TOD - John Jakes' SAVANNAH, which takes place in December 1864.  I intended to finish it before we visited there, but now I'm glad we saw the city before Hattie and her mother took refuge there as General Sherman approached their Ogeechee River plantation.

This morning I opened Google and this is what I saw

Very cool!

 The JFK library is digitizing some of the documents and stuff and placing them on their website I have  been to the JFK library before. Very nice.

I'm reading The Lacuna.  Don't love it-don't hate it.  I'm about 1/2 way through.  I have The Confession by John Grishom and Cutting for Stone waiting for me when I'm done.   Of course I read all day, but that's work

I recall loving the novelization of HOUSE OF DARK SHADOWS.




I have actually seen that book before....

It is rumoured that there is a movie version in the works with Johnny Depp playing Barnabas.

I do recall the version from the early 1990s with Ben Cross as Barnabas. I felt the show never got a chance to really find an audience


On the subject of novelizations, a number of shows novelized their scripts inluding Days, Another World, Guidnig Light, ATWT and the Doctor Who Series

I have quite a few DW ones

Thank you all for the good thoughts. Now, if I can keep it together for a few more hours. One way of killing time: Ironing the shirt I plan to wear.

I'm awake.  Today will be mostly combining key 2 and key 3 for The Wedding Singer and creating the patch list so if I get to my other show early tonight, I can start programing my keyboard for a rehearsal (!) I just found out I had on Sunday evening.  Oy and Vey

Hot buttered rum might do the trick. Of course I can't guarantee how you'll feel the next morning ...
