Someone posted a snap of those of us in the Holi fashion show and posted it on Facebook. I must say that in my western outfit I look rather more like Forrest Gump than John Wayne.

Plus, I know that the camera adds 10 lbs...so why does it look like an extra 30 lbs on me?

Needless to say, the photographic evidence of my ramp walk will not be posted here, unless some better pictures turn up! it is just too horrifying....well, except that everyone else in the photo looks wonderful...and the clothes are beautiful!

I've heard the camera never lies, Mikey!

DR FJL I am sure there will be photographic and video evidence of the crime.

Forgive my stupidity (you have for all these years), which Academy is hosting the Richard Sherman evening?

Perhaps there were three cameras!

Oh, by the way, got my Blu Ray machine hooked up last week. Watched part of KING KONG ESCAPES. Haven't figured out how to get the internet to work on it so that I can watch Amazon Prime stuff. May have to have the Comcast man come by and get it working properly.

One thing I have noticed when playing non blu ray dvds on the new machine...every now and then a twirling earth icon pops up in the top right hand corner of the TV screen, and I know not why.

That must be the reason, DR TCB. Glad there weren't any more cameras than that!

I have to face it:

When TCB ignores a comment you make on one of his direct quotes, you know you're "over".

How the camera never lie and add 10-30 pounds? It seems to do both in my case.

In honor of Henry Mancini's birthday today, here's the opening credits for Stanley Donen's TWO FOR THE ROAD created by the genius Maurice Binder (set to Mancini's theme, of course):
