I am back from a fabulous visit with Andrea (she says HI, DR Elmore!) and a lovelier than lovely luncheon at the Dunwoody Country Club.  I'm spending the rest of the afternoon in our room enjoying some quiet time before tonight's banquet.

I got about seven hours of sleep - needed more and would have probably slept until ten but the phone rang at eight-thirty.  It was the lab and today I get to go in at one and actually watch the process for the two-hour clean-up of the first twelve minutes - that will really be interesting for me, then I can approve it right there.

Good luck!!

DR elmore your grandmother was a lovely lady.  You certainly explained why Macbeth is so easily manipulated by his wife & why Randy doesn't want to make waves.  I can relate to the similar sibling & parental dynamics.  The big difference is all the love & goodness that was in my mother when she wasn't drinking.  I still miss that mother very much.

My grandmother was fantastic, and, since I was the first grandchild, I was her favorite.  Since I spent the first three years of my life living at her house, I remember her rocking me, singing to me, and sewing clothes for me, my brother Macbeth and my cousins.  Some time around the mid-1950s, my uncles and aunts decided she should leave her house and live part-time with each of them, but that proved a disaster, and she ended up living mostly with my parents. After she died in 1962, her spirit stayed at our house though the 1970s when I moved to New York. I would wake in the night to feel she was sitting on the edge of my bed, we could hear her walking about in the attic late in the night, and one night she terrified Macbeth by floating into his bedroom and sending him to sleep on the living room sofa. Thank you, grandma!

A couple nights ago I dreamt I was running outside from an attacker and came across a regional theater troupe performing "Phantom of the Opera" in the middle of a traffic intersection. Their costumes were so low-budget that the phantom was wearing some type of helmet to cover up one eye. And, no, I'm not making this up.

TOD:  Outside of the 80s, outstanding courtroom movies include "Twelve Angry Men" (surely the jury room can be included?) and "Witness for the Prosecution".

And while courtroom drama wasn't it's "main" purpose, "To Kill A Mockingbird".

Oy, what a morning.  At the rental I saw my yard service who were as appalled as I am at the shape of the yard, then also met with Bathfitter who quoted me what I consider an exorbitant amount to retrofit the downstairs shower, which I rejected, and then with a nice guy who quoted me a very reasonable price for refinishing the hardwoods in the master bedroom, which I approved.

Ourside of the 80s, I'd also include "Judgment at Nuremberg."

Good Afternoon!

Hairs have been cut.

Lunch has been consumed. -I hit the in-store restaurant at the big Korean supermarket up the road. They really do serve some very fine food at truly rock-bottom prices.

And now...

Well...

I'm eating ice cream. :)

**The Korean supermarket currently has individual Magnum Ice Cream bars on sale. I may have bought one of them. Or two.

Having seen this clip from the Jon Strwart show, it's my belief that Mr and Mrs Bachmann are basing all of their bigotry and homophobia on internal self-loathing. Seriously, Mikey, if Mr Bachmann is not gay and filled with self-denial, I am Marie of Roumania. And that idiot Michelle is Cleopatra Queen of Denial.  I can only hope he's caught cruising a men's room before Michelle's campagn for president becomes a reign of terror. Is she running on a platform of "Keep American Stupid?" Personally, I think congress should pass a "Keep America Intelligent" campaign and deport or execute her.
