What a day. What the HELL is this rain about? We're right in a line of it that doesn't move, so there's been no relief at all, and at some point this evening I have to schlep the trash can down to the road. Oy!

Since Clever George knows how to get to the ghost site, he should go check it out.

I did! Wow! Very nice! However...at the very bottom, the link to the board is incorrectly spelled: "Click here to got to he Unseemly Discussion Board". A rogue "t" has jumped back over a word!

I don't see the ptrolbem

And guess which episode I just watched.

TIME OF TERROR, that's what!

And what a great story it is. I've only seen three or four of these things, and it's going to be great going through the entire series.

I think he was one of the characters in CLEOPATRA.

A co worker and I had to make a client visit this morning and I was driving in the downpour and complaining bitterly when a news report came on the radio talking about Oklahoma - so I decided to thank my lucky stars and remember that rain will make the flowers grow

ChasSmith · « **Reply #173 on:** May 23, 2013, 05:42:27 PM »

BK of course does a lovely turn in that one.

And with Patricia Neal!

vixmom · « **Reply #174 on:** May 23, 2013, 05:43:23 PM »

I didn't know Cleopatra was being shown on the big screen I guess I must have missed here they never advertise these things properly

ChasSmith · « **Reply #175 on:** May 23, 2013, 05:49:05 PM »

They don't advertise them at all!

They apparently run trailers at the theater, but just about the only people who know about these things are the internet-savvy types who specifically follow that kind of subject. But movies like that and The Birds and all the rest that get shown for only one day should, in my silly opinion, be filled up with the plain everyday "normal" people who do know about and do like those films. It's crazy.

Oh, sometimes a newspaper columnist mentions them, but ... geez.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #176 on:** May 23, 2013, 05:51:34 PM »

I asked my manager friend, and fortunately it doesn't cost the theater anything to run them. In fact, they have to as a part of their agreements with the studios, in return for whatever privileges they get with current features. Or something like that. And this theater has 15 other screens, so at least they're not hurting when only two people show up. But it's still a ridiculous situation.

DR Jennifer maybe the store can exchange your helmet for the correct size at the same price. Next time ask them to remove the cardboard while you try it on. It is terribly annoying all the attached crap we have to deal with when trying on clothes. I've insisted on items being removed for me that were simply too bulky to work around.

What kind of stuff do you have when you try on clothes? We only have the price tags.

We have those hard plastic things that set of "sirens" when you leave the store with them still attached.

The only place I've seen those is Winners. But they take them off in the changing rooms.

The dressing rooms?? Every place that I've ever gotten clothes doesn't remove the alarm tag(s) until after I've PAID for the item(s)!

They remove them when you try the clothes on. Then put them back when you leave the dressing room.
