Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And, yes, it's raining in New York City.

It's also another Spring-like Winter Day here in New York City. The current temp: 52.

TOD:

Yesterday, I received several MOD catalog titles from MGM/UA that I will be watching and reviewing:

VICE SQUAD (Edward G, Robinson)
THE BIG CAPER (Rory Calhoun)
A SMALL TOWN IN TEXAS (Timothy Bottoms)
THE MAGNETIC MONSTER (Richard Carlson)
HANNIBAL BROOKS (Oliver Reed)

I wonder how many Oscars those films won.

They sound good. Like minor noirs.

Jose, I think the show runs through this weekend.  It's part of Portland's Fertile Ground series, which is basically a huge event where people "try out" new ideas, etc.

DR JMK et al - Have you been following JRB's Billy Joel "project"? He's been covering songs from "The Stranger". Three tracks so far. Some pretty cool stuff.

I got that JRB "Trumpet of the Swan" CD for Christmas. Haven't had time to listen to it yet. Hope it's better than 13.

In other, other news Robert A. Harris basically says what I said vis a vis To Kill a Mockingbird, and yet people are still bitching and moaning.  ;)

WIT with my friend Zachary Spicer opened on Broadway last night.  Looking at the reviews, I guess he was "also in the cast."

Didn't even see his photo in the opening night group.

DR JRand - Zach made the Playbill On Opening Night Gallery!

Finished listening to Kate Jacobs' Comfort Food and downloaded Geraldine Brooks' Caleb's Crossing.  Time for a basement cardio walk!

On my way down to the pharmacy, the deluge began and I arrived there completely soaked through. I'm home, I've changed clothes and I still feel wet.

And back to DEAREST ENEMY.

TGIF!

And it's not a payday, either.  But I don't care.

This has been a four-day work week but it has been hell.

Way too much paperwork and far too many people involved in the content of said paperwork.

I'm up, I'm up - got a little over eight hours of sleep.  If I'm to jog I have to leave in ten minutes so I'm not sure that will happen today, plus it's overcast.
