Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of Nips, and now it is time for you to post until the nippy cows come home.

I'm off to Long Island for the weekend again.

We will finish work on the basement and relax and Anthony will come back to the city after all his hard work.

My parody book is out and on Amazon:

Blatant self- promo follows:


Here's the link on Amazon for my book, which is done through what is called CreateSpace
 Independent Publishing Platform, pretty a "self-publishing" equivalent of doing
your own showcase production or releasing a self-made CD these days.

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=fred+landau+oldies

or someone can go to amazon and type in the search box
fred landau oldies
and it will come up as the first item in the search

What's in my deeveedee player:
To Rome With Love, a rather disappointing Woody Allen entertainment.  I enjoyed it, but can't picture sitting through it a second time. 
What's in my seedee player:
Two by The Puppini Sisters (Betcha Bottom Dollar and Hollywood), and Rising Sun, which I had an opportunity to listen to last night.  Phenomenal disc, Bruce.  Be proud.  Be very proud.

Good morning, all! I had a terrible night of sleeping and I would have happily stayed in bed longer but I hae to be at my doctor's office by 10:30 for my flu shot.  I've decided to try the bus today, so well see how I manage.

When I get back, I believe I'll be prone for a while, wondering why I didn't take a car or happy that it went so well. This is the only thing on my agenda until Monday.  I'm getting bored and stir-crazy.

DR ChasSmith, you have a vocal score for WUTHERING HEIGHTS! That's one you never see on shelves. When I first got to NYC in 1979, I had a god friend who was a Herrmann fanatic, and he was interested in writing a bio of the composer. Whenever I hear Herrmann's name, I think of my friend Jimmy.

BK, the LI'L ABNER material sounds fascinating.

Friday morning greetings!  Today was the first day in about a week that I didn't have to set my alarm and get dressed up for something.  I still woke up about 7:30, but it was on MY terms and quite pleasant.  The only thing on today's calendar is a conference call about AAUW and our book group with a Dayton newspaper columnist, followed by some errands.

Last evening Richard and I ventured to Chrisholm Historic Farmstead for a program on travel to Amish communities.  One of the speakers was a longtime professional acquaintance of Richard's and a member of the AAUW group of which I'm president.  Not surprisingly, she was the best of the 3 speakers.  We had never been to this nearby historic site and it was quite interesting.

I lo-o-o-ove the coffee flavored NIPS!  Be careful, though, because they can stick to your teeth and pull out crowns and fillings.  Learned that the hard way...

Musical-film-on-Blu-ray Alert:

Apparently (although many discussions about this are wary of its being real), a Blu-ray of "Billy Rose's 'Jumbo'" is imminent.  Amazon has it set for an October 8 release.

Presumably, it's a Warner Archives release, but the "next" title announced has been "Sharky's Machine" (for pity's sake), so this title coming out of the blue like this seems a bit unsettling.

I pray it's so as I've pre-ordered it.

No Rising Sun CD yet, so hoping for today since others have theirs.  (If so, I'll have it within the hour.)
In the meantime:

BLU-RAY
A Letter to Three Wives
Halloween -- the latest and of course controversial 35th anniversary release

CAR PLAYER
Finished "Odd Thomas" and really liked it.  Ready for more.
