I have that SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS Criterion DVD, and am almost positive I've never watched it.  Wait, could that be?  Yes, I do think I've never seen it at all.  So with a recommendation like that, what am I waiting for?  I'll take it off the shelf when I go downstairs.

I hope you enjoy it. It is pure joy.

Good morning, all!

I have some errands to run and then it's back to work.  I have nothing to report at the moment.

DR John G, I too love "Hot In Cleveland." It reaches amazing heights of dementia when it's really good, especially when Susan Lucci and Wendy Malick are duking it out.

There was an episode last night where Susan Lucci got to deliver a eulogy at Wendy Malick's fake funeral. It was priceless.

DRs John G and elmore:  I don't know if you've heard but Hot in Cleveland has been cancelled.

Bummer. I think this one series where the writing has gotten stronger with each succeeding year.

The sound on that clip is horrible.  I prefer this version, it gives me chills.  Wish I could cut out the intro guy.

Had a few hours of dance practice today. New pair of Latin shoes, which have a 1-inch heel, and it has made some of the dancing quite interesting. I feel about 5 inches taller and also feel as if I'm falling all the time. This will take some work.

Latin heels are not to be confused with the cha-cha heels that Divine wanted for Christmas in the classic John Waters comedy "Female Trouble." In that movie, she didn't get what she wanted, so she threw the tree down on her parents and ran out of the house.

I did not read the book or any reviews, but I just watched all four episodes of OLIVE KITTEREDGE.....which was quite an outstanding program.

It was just starting on one of the HBO channels, and I like Frances McDormand, so I just took a chance.  It is NOT a feel good, sentimental piece.....but it is quite an interesting and well told story.

I did read the book and was moved to avoid the HBO film.... I am in the mood for fun, uplifting and escapist entertainment these days

Latin shoes?  My last pair of dress shoes were made in Mexico.  I still can't do the Hat Dance.

I made a dish called Green Chile Pie. And I made a mess. It tastes good, but it's all soupy and it shouldn't be.

Sunday evening greetings!  Today was a Lima Sunday, made extra special because our niece Rev. Amy came for the service and her husband and 3 kids arrived afterwards.  We transferred some of Grandma Palmer's bookcases from my car to Amy's then all 7 of us went to Bob Evans for lunch.  I got to sit between Nathan (10) and Tim (7) and across from Rachel (2).  They are delightful children and we enjoyed spending time with them.  I was the only one who spilled anything - my glass of water.

I didn't realize you had a niece that was a minister!  I am glad you had such a nice visit

Just got an email about the launch of the Herringbone album. Wish I could attend the party, but I'll be satisfied with the album when it arrives.

Can't do the hat dance, either. Or the Boot-Scooting Boogie.

The Seattle Seahawks kicked a** today against the Arizona Cardinals.  Probably the best game they have played since they won the Super Bowl.

this morning we had church , I was assisting  minister and the Vixter was a communion assistant.  I had coffee hour volunteers for both services  which freed me up for three meetings .

Then the Vixter and I collected my folks and joined the 50+ group from church for a trip to a local theatre college which put on a performance of Little Shop of Horrors.  It was well cast, well sung, well acted, and funny as all get out

We had a grand time.

I went out to the Claimjumper for Sunday Buffet.  The food was good, but something I ate was laced with MSG.  I came home and fell asleep for an hour.  I woke up half way thru the second quarter of the game.  I still feel woozy.
