I've always been more of a Cassavettes fan than not. Loved "Faces," "Shadows"and "A Woman Under the Influence" possibly the most. Perhaps I just love anything with Gena Rowlands in it.

Now, Henry Jaglom is someone I could never understand. Never found anything remotely appealing in the three or four films of his that I watched, so I stayed away.

Being a writer, I love a tight, well structured and written script, which you don't get in a Cassavettes picture when the actors are allowed to improvise to their heart's content.

But, he was the darling of the critics, so who am I to say?

BTW: I like Ms. Rowlands, too.  I think she is terrific.

John G - I hope you'll give a chance anyway to Mr. Jaglom's JUST 45 MINUTES FROM BROADWAY, which features one of my dearest friends, the talented writer and actress Harriet Schock (best known for writing songs like Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady and Hollywood Town, and also co-starred in Henry Jaglom's exciting but controversial film Irene in Time)

I haven't gotten to see it yet, but the play it's based on got terrific reviews in L.A.

What I Just Learned:

Saturday, May 19th, is International Learn to Fly Day.

Which I did, back in '77-'78, at Van Nuys Airport.  Logged around 270 hours before various and sundry life changes kind of shoved it aside.  But man, I loved it, and still would.  Can't imagine the FAA would approve my vision the way it is now.  Not that I'd even bother trying.  Getting that approval every couple of years was hard enough when I was but a li'l 30-something.

Maybe if he has a script to work from, he might be more in control -- or something might be more in control of him.

Well on top of the bad water - the Polaroid Television gave up the ghost.....so I had to go buy another television.  I got an Emerson 39" HDTV with all the connections I needed and it is now up and running.....we shall see what happens with all the peripherals I also installed.

I am ready to be dogless for the first time in my life after Beegee and Blanche depart.  Betsy is threatening divorce.  (That's nothing new).   ;)

Day-after vibes for DR Jane and Keith.

Our bedroom looks pretty again and I only needed one sheet on the lint roller, vs about 20, while making the bed.  I miss the mess in there & the layers of sheets on top of the spread.

Boil your water - if you live in my town.  It seems maintenance at the Morningstar Water Tower let pressure drop below 20 psi, so for cooking and drinking we have to boil our water for one minute.   However since I use bottled water, I will be fine!

 :P  We get that quite frequently, DR JRand, because we live in an older part of town and the infrastructure is aging.  It usually takes me a couple of days after the all-clear to be able to drink the tap water.

I would never drink the tap water!

Good morning, all! I had a dream involving our DR Ginny last night, but now I cannot for the life of me remember what the dream was about....

DR Elmore, did you dream that I was in NYC?  That's NEXT week...

That's right.  Keith's aunt & cousin, who invited me to meet them there, are leaving for NY soon.

I'm afraid I would get very air sick in a little plane.  Our neighbor build a plane in his garage and it was fun watching the progress.

Maybe you would if you're prone to motion sickness anyway, but most first-timers are surprised to find that flying in a small plane feels very much like it does in a large one, except being a thousand times more fun.  This of course depends on one's being smart enough to fly in appropriate conditions for the plane.  Also, I used to make sure the scaredy-cat sat in front so I could let them get a feel for the controls, which in my own limited experience never failed to completely win them over to it.

Keith & Craig, who was 15 at the time, forced me into getting Echo. I used to joke about that because we were so attached.

I suggested getting Sherlock because Keith really wasn't ready not to have a dog, after all if I wanted a cat we would have gotten one.  Well, I do want one I've just managed to stay firm in my decision, so far anyway.  Since Sherlock was diagnosed I've been craving a kitten.

It sounds wonderful.  I am very prone to motion sickness and can even get car sick when I'm driving.

Wow, that's unusual.  I think.  But what do I know?  I'll get motion-sick if I try to read in a car, no question about that.  Sometimes, at least in the past, just sitting in the back seat on, say, a windy mountain road.  Never air-sick, though, love it too much for that.  Well, maybe if I got SCARED enough....

Scrolling on the computer or using the old microfilm files too long can give me motion sickness.
