I have just learned that my dear friend and mentor, producer Stanley Rubin died last night.  He was 96.

I would not have had the success I had in the industry were it not for his kindness and support.

If you're not familiar with his credits, they include THE NARROW MARGIN (original), RIVER OF NO RETURN, THE PRESIDENT'S ANALYST and WHITE HUNTER, BLACK HEART.

He also produced TV series like GENERAL ELECTRIC THEATER, THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR, BRACKEN'S WORLD and the TV movie, BABE.

Condolences to you and Mr. Rubin's family.  He certainly provided me with some great memories.  "The President's Analyst" is one of my all-time favorites.  The TV series "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" was a staple of my youth.

Sad to report that our wonderful Outside the Box editor, Marshall Harvey, lost his wife tonight - 54 years old.  She had a heart attack last June, and from then on it was just one complication after another.  So very sad.

Condolences to Mr. Harvey and his family.  I lost my dad when he was only 51, so I know that is way too young, especially now that I turned 49.


You are a mere child, Dan!

DR Dan I enjoyed reading your diatribe regarding Heston and completely agree with it.

Thanks DR Jane, I appreciate your support!

We are going for a record number of posts





I think you and TCB have a lot to do with it!


Credit goes to Cilla.  She types much faster (and thinks much faster) than I do.

Aw, thanks TCB, but it wouldn't be nearly as much fun without you


I have been enjoying it with you, too.

I think I may make my frozen pizza for dinner.  Or maybe bacon and eggs


I was thinking of sausage and eggs, but I don't have any bread for toast

BLUE JASMINE is the only nominated film I've seen this year. I thought Sally Hawkins really did a fine job and was Oscar-worthy. I liked Cate Blanchett, too.

I had a very similar idea of making omelets and sausage for din-din.

They are indeed treasures. I'm not sure where one goes to find one. I hope you do. Perhaps in your next career.

I have some bread, but by the time I send it you probably won't be hungry for eggs anymore.

I loved GRAVITY....   Yes DR CILLA LIZ - ABSCAM was something!  And I guess AMERICAN HUSTLE wasn't a documentary (Some of the following things happened), but it wasn't quite complete for me.

ANYWAY - I am watching the E! Red Carpet - even though there are a couple of their people who really irritate me.....smarmy nonentities who should be watching television rather than being on it.....not to mention names but, Seacret, Rancic, and Osborne.....

I don't know why, but I just don't get Scorsese anymore.  I think he's a talent, but his recent movies leave me cold and disconnected.  I'm also not into DiCaprio either, so that doesn't help.

Yes, she is. She's done other roles of this ilk in the UK.
