I took the battery out and put it out on the patio, where it is warm (95 degrees) and dry. I'll put it in rice overnight, I guess. I wonder if it will be safe to turn it back on in the morning?

DR Laura - You can try to turn the phone on now. If it's dead, it's dead - and it won't do anything, won't shock you. If it doesn't turn on - or if it turns on "weak", put in back in the rice. In the morning, try to turn it on again. If it doesn't turn on, connect it to the charging cord, then try again.

And...

Today is mom's birthday. -Happy Birthday, Mom!

I believe we - my brothers and their kids and myself - will be heading down to Richmond tomorrow or on Sunday for a proper birthday dinner.

Just been on the couch resting - and watched some hideous motion picture I'd TIVOd - TV movie called Lucy about Lucy and Desi.  Rachel York and some of the worst casting choices I've ever seen in one film.  You know you're in trouble when they tell you that Eddie Cantor is directing and starring in Roman Scandals.  How hard is it to use the handy-dandy imdb or go to the library to see that the director was Frank Tuttle?  How HARD?  And Rachel York, whatever one thinks of her, is not a patch on the butt cheeks of Miss Ball.

I saw this when it was first broadcast and was ....  well pretty much horrified by the whole thing... Rachel York being one of the things that horrified me....it also seems to me that at least once in "1956" - they drove away from Desilu in a 1958 Lincoln.

DR JRand - Are you familiar with An Evening With Lucille Ball: "Thank You For Asking" which stars Suzanne LaRusch and is directed by Lucie Arnaz? It's part of this summer's line-up at the Cape Playhouse.

In totally random news...

A friend of mine tipped me off to this website which offers some pretty nice retro-ish prescription eyeglasses for just $95/pair*: Warby Parker. They even offer a Free Home Try-On program where you can order five different frames to try on at home for five days before you buy.

*And that includes the frames and the lenses. For higher indexes, there's an additional $30 charge.

And other sort of random news...

Another friend of mine unearthed these videos that accompanied Cleo Laine's Sondheim album:

Everybody Says Don't

Losing My Mind

-I had no idea these existed. Alas, they're quite, well... literal. ::)

And just to properly close this thread(?), here's Dorothy Collins on "The David Frost Show" singing "Losing My Mind".

A year or so ago I told of Suzanne finding me on Facebook - we went out to lunch at Mo's.  She was in a show of mine at the Morgan Theater back in 1974 (I talk about it in the book) - I had no idea she was doing the Lucy thing, and she's really good - has the voice, mannerisms, and look down perfectly.  I think there are clips on You Tube.

We worked for about three hours on Barbara's book and it's basically designed (Grant had done all the preliminary stuff before) - it looks very good and now we'll proof and make fixes next week and put the puppy to bed.

We all then went to Hamburger Hamlet - I was VERY nervous about eating anything, but also very weak from not eating for over twenty-four hours.  I was feeling a little bit less queasy, so I took Barbara's advice and had the rotisserie chicken and it was very good and I was so hungry I ate it all up.  So, hopefully I won't regret it.
