Very sorry to hear about your friend, DR John G. That is a beautiful photo - I'm sure all his others are, as well.

There was snow in that photo, Singdaw. What's that all about?

I have no idea.

But I can assure you that although the house appears decorated for the holidays, it is not decorated right now. This is a picture from a previous year, supplied by the landlord.

Yes, DR Ben - separate entrance, fortunately. And even a detached garage! For only 1 car now - we're on the top of the waiting list for a second. In case it, you know, snows.

Good morning, all.

Up and at 'em early again this morning for more electrician work.

Coffee! Blueberry muffin!

I'm a late-comer to GIANT, but loved it from the start, and that start was only several years ago when I first watched the DVD straight through. I didn't yet have a flat panel HDTV, so I wasn't aware of the abysmal quality of that DVD transfer. But I was also so incredibly wrapped up in the story that I probably would have tolerated it pretty well regardless. Eventually having learned about the state of the film on home video, and finally having a great screen, I had no desire to revisit it till Warner had done their work. There will be a very special evening set aside for this.

I've found I love films, whether "epics" or not, revolving around the late 19th/early 20th century development and growth of the US or its cities or industry or reigning families or whatnot. THERE WILL BE BLOOD is a good one. KANE and AMBERSONS. CHINATOWN. THE CARPETBAGGERS. I'm painting with a broad brush, but all of these things relate to some extent. Novels, too. I'm sure there are many more such things to discover.

I know that Texas was part of the Confederacy, but I don't really consider Texas to be part of "The South"...which is why I didn't include GIANT.

Texas is Texas!

Greetings from Toyland!

I include GIANT because with Texas you get both west and south. But of course it depends on the piece.
This is another area in which I need to discover more things, but off the top of my head...

GIANT
THE SOUND AND THE FURY
THE LONG HOT SUMMER
TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
SHOW BOAT
GONE WITH THE WIND
SONG OF THE SOUTH
HUSH...HUSH, SWEET CHARLOTTE
IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT
DELIVERANCE
PRETTY BABY
BODY HEAT
SOUTHERN COMFORT
THE BIG EASY
MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL
and most any Tennessee Williams.

Also re the notes, forgot to say I'm definitely interested in a telling of Lovelace and anything else about those years.

We must see photos of the new house when you get there DR SING DAW.

WOW! Perhaps I'll be your date for the move!

Thank you for that clarification, SingSong, those of us with cold medicine addled brains need that little bit of help

Thanks for the VIBES - the cold medicine did the trick of clearing me up and stopping the sneezing
Alka Seltzer cold medicine clears me for nearly 24 hours but it makes me tired but that was OK because I slept right through the night and woke feeling well enough to be at the dentist by 8 AM

I was pleasantly surprised to find the the crowns were so expertly made that they required no trimming or tedious refitting - they popped in - did an xray to check fit popped out , adhesive applied and popped back in and hour and a half late I was eating breakfast at the IHOP

vixmom · « **Reply #57 on:** November 09, 2013, 09:00:45 AM »

I had the new eggnog pancakes - I am afraid I do not recommend them;

I should have gone with my first impulse, the pumpkin pancakes, which are always very good

vixmom · « **Reply #58 on:** November 09, 2013, 09:01:56 AM »

However I also had eggs bacon and sausage so the lack of pancakes was not an issue - of course I probably had more calories for breakfast than BK had all week

well time to mosey into the day and actually accomplish something
