Spring will be here soon DR CHAS SMITH!!!

And I think there are MUCH worse ways to spend an evening that seeing BAREFOOT IN THE PARK....if the leads are charming, you are half way home. The old folks are also pretty funny.

I played the man upstairs once, and the play certainly is an audience pleaser.

The stock, made of cauliflower, shredded cabbage, tomatoes, onion, bay leaf, salt and pepper is simmering away while the beef bones are simmering in another pan for more stock as I need it. It's time to peel the potatoes and drag out another large pan.

I noticed the movie MARTY is on Saturday at 8:00PM TCM.

I have seen it several times and really love it.

I really enjoyed BAREFOOT IN THE PARK with Jane Fonda, and Robert Redford!!!

On your list, Kate, is one of my recent favorites, "Miss Pettigrew." Great fun.

Back from an omelet and some tap tap tapioca pudding. Waiting for the helper, then some errands, then I'm in for the rest of the day and evening.

DR Jrand63 has played 'em all!

But I'm going to wait and see BAREFOOT IN THE PARK next weekend. I hear this production is wonderful, but I think I needs me a sit-at-home-and-watch-movies night. Have to think about what that's going to be, which I will mull over whilst running out and stocking up on a few foodstuffs.

Speaking of playing 'em all, where has TCB been? Hope all is well!

Well, I guess I will now stop hearing Petula Clark singing in my mind everytime I thought about the show.

There is a new Bollywood horror film on DVD...ADVENTURE OF HAUNTED HOUSE...but I'll be darned if I can find anywhere to buy it.

Just looking at the cast, I can tell it is a good movie.

I agree what has been said about dubbed movies, although sometimes it's fun to hear at what lengths the producers go through to "match" the original actors' voices. Has anyone seen Schwarzenegger's 1969 movie, "Hercules in New York"? His part is hilariously dubbed and nothing like the sound of his actual voice. If you've seen many foreign pictures from the 1960s and 1970s, you know that some of the same voice actors come up again and again. I saw many a Japanese movie dubbed into English, in which it seemed like it was Paul Frees talking to Paul Frees talking to another Paul Frees. I believe he was Toshiro Mifune's "official" English/American voice for a couple of films.

I always try to see the movie in its original form if possible and have learned to tolerate subtitles. Even the TOHO Godzilla films play differently in the original Japanese. On a related note, I also only listen to opera in the language it was originally written in. Somehow it sounds better to me.

Interesting comparison. One needs something to distract themselves during times like this. I hope you are doing ok.

The missing Netflix discs and the failed shipment did ot show up today, so the asshole manager of the Planetarium Station will get a bad critique from me to the US Postal site. I suspect the followup will be that i never receive another piece of mail in decent condition, but this situation is ridiculous.

Jane · « **Reply #81 on:** March 07, 2014, 03:10:13 PM »

Sorry DR elmore. Did you manage through your conversation with the Man from Philadelphia?

elmore3003 · « **Reply #82 on:** March 07, 2014, 03:11:03 PM »

So, I just sent this to USPS.com:
Our regular carrier is off with an injury, I believe, and the mail’s been a mess all week: I should have received two Netflix items on Wednesday and they have never shown up, yesterday there were tw items in my postbox, a catalogue for someone else and a delivery attempt notice. Now, the wrong item makes me suspect my two Netflix items are sitting in another postbox or in another building, but I am most concerned about the delivery attempt of tracking number 95001214402140------79, according to the USPS.com site, 4:34pm. I was home, since i am currently crippled, and the postman never rang my apartment to notify me of a delivery! When I discovered this around 5:30, since the post’s been arriving very late in the afternoon, I called the Planetarium Station and spoke to an unfriendly gentleman who said he was the manager. He was neither helpful nor interested in the situation, so i then went to USPS.com and requested a delivery of the package today. Well, it never showed up. What the hell?

This morning Redbox offered us a first option on Hunger Games: Catching Fire and Keith quickly reserved it. We now have it in our possession to watch tonight. I think popcorn is also in order.

DR elmore vibes you receive a reasonable response and they find your missing items.

This is a review that might (mind you, I said "might") entice me to see this movie...well, maybe not, but it's a pretty funny review:

The 300 sequel is Zack Snyder's greatest intellectual masterpiece.

I feel for you, DR Elmore. It is unnerving to think that your mail and packages could be getting delievered to wrong places, or just not at all!

Jane · « **Reply #89 on:** March 07, 2014, 04:05:45 PM »

We would like to know where our missing UPS package is. While we would like it to arrive it isn't urgent.
