That's Austin, Druxy.

Wonder if the Statesman will like the new Terence Malick movie that just filmed there. It set against the music scene. Ryan Gosling, Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Patti Smith, Little Richard, Noomi Rapace, I forget who else is supposedly in it.

[John G.]

Just spent 90 cents on a CD of Kathie Lee Gifford's "Under the Bridge" musical. I may have paid too much.

[Druxy]

We watched LAWLESS the other night.

It's okay, but it could have been much better. 

It's a fascinating true story about Prohibition era bootleggers in rural Virginia.  The cast is excellent.  But, the screenplay lacks focus.

They usually like Austin-filmed movies.

Good evening!

Uh, oh, DR Elmore isn't going to like this:

Middletown Restaurant Closes After 78 Years

 

I only went to the Meadows a few times, but I liked the food. I'm more upset over its closing as the death of one more standard of the presence of class and intelligence in Middletown goes abandoned. Soon it will be a town of nothing but bikers, bars, and tattoo parlors.

Nope, dollar stores and auto parts stores.

That f&*king Snuggles bear in those fabric softener commercials creeps me out with that weird voice; I want to put it and the Pillsbury doughboy onto a grill and watch them fry.

"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts!"

Who said that?  And why?

[TCB]

And the word of the day is: RATIOCINATION!

I had to say that word in SLEUTH. Tough to just throw off of the tongue.

You wondered why Shawn Phillips recorded the song for Lost Horizon I think he was recording for A & M label at the time which I think owned the Bell Label that the soundtrack was released on.

If this is not the case I don't know why, but it was a nice choice.

Thanks, Mike.  I also like his voice.

I am wrong about  A & M.

Bell records

Side note: In the 60's The Bell label merged with two other labels and was bought by Columbia Pictures

in the 70's  "Columbia Pictures music consultant Clive Davis, took over as President and would merge the various Columbia Pictures legacy labels (Colpix Records, Colgems Records, and Bell) into a new entity renamed Arista Records..."

One of the groups that recorded for Bell was THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY which BK has some dealings with.

HUh.  Interesting.

Friday morning greetings from Kettering Medical Center in the Dayton 'burbs!  Richard is being prepped for his hammertoe surgery.  Vibes & prayers would be appreciated!

Better late than never health vibes for DH Richard!

[George]

Well, I'm off.  The Olympia Film Festival is in full swing and tonight, they're showing The Best of the Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival @ Washington Center.  My niece is in one of the short movies being shown tonight!  The piece, this* is what QUEER looks like, is on YouTube, too.  My niece is right at 1:44-1:45.  If you blink, you'll miss her.  Anyway, she'll get to see herself on a very big screen with a (hopefully) large audience.

Be back later!

Do you have to go to the Smithsonian to listen?

LES MIZ is being released on Christmas Day.

Really?

DR Sandra and I are going to see the tour of "Anything Goes" tonight. The local critic gives it 5 out of 5 stars. A rare thing indeed.

That sounds like so much fun. Hope you both enjoy it.

There are two books that came out in the last few weeks that I am really dying to read. My library has them in binding. I was hoping they would be out of binding today so I could see if I was first for both books.

I wonder if they might process them tomorrow. I didn't think they did such things on the weekend but last weekend they did.

I am going to a big craft fair tomorrow at 10am and it is in the same building as the library. But I guess the chance of the books being there by the time I am done are slim.

[Jennifer]

One of the books just came out 3 days ago. It amazes me how sometimes they get books so quickly.

Tour is coming to SF and a friend of mine is in it.  Can't wait to see it, it's one of my all time favorite shows!!!  Have a great time!!

[TCB]

Really?  I heard for sure it was coming out on December 25th.

What happened to Christmas Day?

Wow!!

Wait a minute.  Are you pulling my leg?

BONJOUR TRISTESSE:   

Wonderful.  Perfect. 

Absolutely wonderful and perfect.

[John G.]

The allergies still have me down. I'll be off to bed with a Benedryl, even though I'm enjoying my movie, the occasionally mawkish "Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing & Charm School." Great cast, not the best script in the world. But the dancing makes me want to start class again. I hope that's soon.

Now that there are no more Twinkies to be had, I guess I can't make this dish, which just sounds revolting to me:

Yaya's Twinkie Baklava.

http://greek.food.com/recipe/yayas-twinkie-baklava-133622

Now that Twinkies may be gone forever, the National County Fair Circuit has announced that their newest junk food item with be Deep-fried Mennen Deodorant Sticks.

[TCB]

I never much cared for Twinkies when I was young.  Preferred Hostess cupcakes (preferably served on a platter a la the Ann Blyth commercials).

Now, I'm not supposed to eat Twinkies. Cholesteroal, dontchaknow.

Why is it that I'm now craving a package of Twinkies?

I never cared for Twinkies, but a Sno-Ball, now that was something special because it had coconut on it. It didn't matter that the arm rest of my chair probably tasted better than the rest of the Sno-Ball, the coconut made it.

Gross!  They could be the reason I am not fond of coconut.
