In fact his moustache is one step removed from the painted moustache that Groucho wore in the 1930s.

Will this turn the page?

Hurrah page five thank you dan

I must be up in six hours so good night

[Dan M]

If it were possible, that is if the original tapes haven't degraded beyond restoration, I think Raoul Kraushaar deserves some kind of tribute. Invaders from Mars, when you find a copy that has the appropriate score, is eerie. He also wrote THE ABBOTT & COSTELLO SHOW theme, which is something that has stayed with me for years, in a good way.

[Dan M]

And Raoul Kraushaar was involved with NEW FACES (1952) which was a very early point in Mel Brooks's career. Eartha Kitt is a force. What's amazing is that Paul Lynde and Alice Ghostley appear together, which dispels the rumor that they were one and the same person. It is funny to see how many vocal and physical mannerisms they either shared or copied between them. But who was first? To me they are great comedic actors and I miss people who are as deft as they were.

Alice Ghostley performs Sheldon Harnick's "Boston Beguine".

Here's what I'm wondering at 9:15 on a Sunday evening: When people who've had their Adriana Hofstetter books for, what, over two months now, are actually going to read the damn thing.

DR Cilla, I have heard how painfull rabies shots are and cringe when I think of you getting them.  Have you had any side effects?

Actually, they aren't painful.  The Human rabies immunoglobin or whatever you call it, was because they had to give me a shot in my finger.  Other than that I get them in my arm and they hurt less then the flu shot.  The days of shots in your stomach are long gone.   It really isn't that bad.  I think I had some reaction to the first set, but nothing today.  Two more to go

BK, My Gene Wilder post on FB was a birthday post, not a post that he had died.

Vibes for cilla

Thanks Vixmom.

Has anybody else watchedalltne episodes of of grace &frankie?

Yes, I enjoyed it

[Jane]

DR Jane, if you are accident prone and worried then why not get an adult 3 wheeler. There is no way that you could fall off of that, but you could still get the exercise and enjoy the view.

I am more worried about other forces crashing into me-lol. I'm off the hook about the bike.  While walking and watching the bikers pass us Keith said he would rather walk.  I agree.  Riding a bike on a path will never recapture my childhood days of riding my bike everywhere and the joy of riding downhill with my arms spread out and the wind blowing in my hair.

[Cillaliz]

I'm

Some other DR (was it DR Jane?) posted also that they enjoyed it more and more as the episodes moved along.

I found. That as well.  And the last few moments of the season finale left me wanting more

I think I said that. I did enjoy it more as it went along

[Cillaliz]

I have not read the book BK.  I haven't had time to read any books since that came in.

[Cillaliz]

While I was doing the laundry today, I did manage to watch most of the new Orange is the New Black episodes.  It's so hard not to binge watch on Netflix.  Anyway, have to get up in the AM so I'm calling it a night.

Not me.

BK, My Gene Wilder post on FB was a birthday post, not a post that he had died.

I wasn't talking about your Facebook Gene Wilder post - I knew it was a birthday post.  I was talking about the fifty other posts I saw "sharing" the news he'd died - which of course he had not.

They were able to locate a place where they have a shared suite with their own sitting room, a bedroom and bath  but allmealsare taken in the dining room

Who do they shate with?  I wish them well there.

[Jane]

I hope so as well. I amso sad I will never again get to see their beautiful home in the mountains. They are quite always from the rest if the family now it's about 2 hours away from threat of the Canadian clan but it was the only facility that would allow them to stay together

Good to hear, if only the cost was less painful.

FJL read it and wrote a very nice review on Amazon.  Perhaps the few for whom it is still sitting there like so much unread fish, will finally pick it up and read it.  It's so exciting when we send them out, when comments come in, and I've tried to just be silent about it but after two months I decided to mention it.

Even George isn't here - no posts in over two hours, maybe three.  Most unseemly.
