Richard Carlson and Richard Denning must look mighty spectacular in 3-D. As if you could reach out and touch them.

Dream on, Alice!

I lived from birth to age 9 in one town and thn we moved about 10 miles away to the town where I still live out here on the island of Long

In Town 1 the suburbs were just starting -- our house was newly built the year i was born and there were empty wooded lots all around us which were full of box turtles and rabbits and birds -- by the time I was 9 and we were moving all the lots had been built on - houses on little 1/4 acre lots

there was a wonderful main street that we used to walk to almost every day - Mom would put the babies inthe stroller and up and down the street we would go - looking in the bakery, the butcher and the old fashioned soda fountain/candy store

oh and a big old movie theatre that had started life as a vaudville house ---

it is now a boat show room....

we had a small but nice movie theatre that was walking distance - every Saturday they had a matinees for 50 cents you saw and hour of cartoons then the clown went up on stage and picked ticket stubs out of a hat If your stub was picked you went up on stage and got balloon animals and a toy --- I was picked once and received a doll

There certainly must be something in Uranus as we got no mail today at all here at my apartment complex. The mailman never showed up, nor did he even ring twice.

He must have thought Columbus Day was a two day holiday.

I went to the shoe store this evening to return a new pair of shoes that I decided I did not need.

Then I went to the picture frame store and bought to 20 x 30 frames that I decided I did need.

Tomorrow evening I am driving up to Lake Oswego to former DR JMK's home where I will meet with he and the errant and truant DR Edisaurus who is visiting the Pacific Northwest, showing her latest feature documentary in Portland.

This will be my first time meeting DR Edisaurus, and I am greatly looking forward to it!

Sadly, I am unable to make it to the screening on Friday evening. $:-\$

I also went to Big Lots and bought some inexpensive reading glasses. I have been using 1.25 strength, but decided to go with the 1.75 strength ones. Got a pack of 3 in assorted colors of blue, red and purple (to use only at home) and one pair of normal ones (which cost more than the 3pack) for use in public.

I have been watching the commercials for Argo although it is not my usual preferred genre i think I may want to go see that movie

Ben thank you for the pictures-- I hope it was a wonderful honeymoon!

Caught up with MAJOR CRIMES from last night. Such a good episode and the ending had me teary eyed, I guess because I could identify somewhat with the situation, as I realized afterwards.

Please give Edi a big hug for me- I have been fortunate to have been able to meet her several times

I am also glad to see she followed my suggestion on how to spend a day in Portland!

One last post, and then I will give the floor back to Vixmom.

Just read that 1940s actor Turhan Bey passed away in Austria at age 90. Sure liked him in all those old Universal films.
