Am enjoying Jane Krakowski. Good to listen to while slowly getting stated on the book.

The concrete trial?

No. It was a different time I was called. I have been called several times. The concrete trial was 3.5 years ago.

I've been ordering out of print books on Fred MacMurray and Bob Hope.

I hope I can see my barber tomorrow while I am out and about. I need to run down to Toyland and stop by the Marquis to pick up my ticket for FOLLIES.

"Child bride," isn't her name Dora?, one of the worst, droopiest heroines Dickens ever created. I do love Aunt Betsy and the Micawbers.

I think it has also produced some of the lousiest movies. Imagine, perfect casting of W.C. Fields as Micawber, yet in idea only.

In reality another of his exaggerated characters.  She needed to be as she was.

Richard and I are back from Northern Hills Synagogue where we attended the joint meeting of their men's and women's clubs for a screening of JEWS & BASEBALL.  We thoroughly enjoyed the film along with the 40 or so others who were there.  Afterwards, a couple of the men and the wife of one gave us the grand tour of the building, including the Kosher kitchen.

Watching "Funny Lady" for the first time in decades. When I was a kid, I saw this movie on its original release and really enjoyed it. Now, it seems not as good as the soundtrack. And did Sarah Vaughn ever comment on how Barbra seems to have copied her rendition of "Great Day" right down to the "rooty-tootin'"?

I liked Fields as Micawber and EdnaMae Oliver as Aunt Betsy, but I prefer the BBC version with Daniel Radcliffe as young David and Maggie Smith as Aunt Betsy. I believe Bob Hoskins is Micawber. It's a wonderful version.

It was a very nice evening, DR John G.  With a 5:30am wake-up and 4 hours on the road, we usually don't go anywhere on Sunday evenings.  But I wanted to see DR Edi's film, so tonight we made an exception and I'm glad we did.

I'll need to find it. The version with Ralph Richardson as Micawber is just lousy. Not the acting, so much as the editing. It was shredded to bits.

I just finished watching SERPICO.

I hadn't seen it for 9 years. 

Still a great movie.

I had my final ministry class today.

I decided to put together a video remembrance for 9-11.

I used Laurie Beechman's version of Beautiful City from her album No One Is Alone.

The class especially like Ms. Beechman vocal.

It's my favorite version of the song.

That's a great rendition. Well, everything on that album is, but that version is so appropriate. Have you posted it on YouTube?

I was getting ready for work and watching the KTLA morning news showing NY. Just as the 1st tower came down I called into the other room for my husband to watch this, was it real or a movie, it was all very surreal and hard to believe.

Then we went to work, school, etc.

The next day at work for me was different.  I work in a machine shop that makes parts for aircraft.   Everything went into this quite uncomfortable strangeness.   One of our employee's wife, was part of the first wave of air strikes, and I remember him saying that in the middle of the night, 5 black suv's arrived at his house and she was gone.   Only thing they could talk about by phone was the kids.   My boss had to have a clearance badge to go to the companies the shop makes parts for.   Stuff like that.
