T.O.D.

Growing up I think we mostly watched Huntley and Brinkley, although in my grandmother's room it was always Walter Cronkite.

As an adult, I think my favorite was Peter Jennings. Sticking with ABC, I really liked Diane Sawyer, and now David Muir.

I also enjoy Anderson Cooper, but I think I like him just as much on New Year's Eve with Kathy Griffin as I do a serious newsman.

TOD

Growing up before I we had cable we only had CBS and NBC from over the air. Walter Cronkite and Huntley and Brinkley were always favorites. In Canada I can't remember who did the early evening news but there were quite a few good good ones late evening news host whose names escape me at the moment.

TOD Part 2

NOW
I absolutely hate local news and don't watch it.

Also don't watch TV that early in the evening when the network news is on.

I currently enjoy MSNBC news programs

Hate Fox news

Also like Anderson Cooper

Topic of the Day: I have to admit that I didn't pay attention to the news or the broadcaters while growing up.

George · « **Reply #9 on:** December 17, 2015, 02:55:20 AM »

Otherwise, I like Anderson Cooper and Rachel Maddow and David Muir.

Well, after the movie that I saw last night (it was VERY graphic, sexually) with friends of mine, we went to a local diner and ate and chatted and just enjoyed each other's company. I didn't get home until about 1:30 a.m.

Now, I just watched the end of my DVD to "Scrooge," starring Albert Finney. A co-worker wants to borrow it and I wanted to see the end. I love this movie, especially the ending.

George · « **Reply #12 on:** December 17, 2015, 03:09:35 AM »

And now, I'm off to bed.

Good night, all.

It seems that the Richard M. Sherman special is only airing in selected areas tonight. I hope that it will follow in other markets very soon.

Jane · « **Reply #17 on:** December 17, 2015, 04:41:11 AM »

Thanks for the suggestions George, however, if I purchase anyting it will be for my Nook and not for the oversized iPad

Jane · « **Reply #18 on:** December 17, 2015, 04:41:35 AM »

My Nook is smaller.

Good morning, all! I was up too late watching too many DVDs. I slept poorly, mostly fretting about my friend, wondering what treatment his doctors have decided to follow, and pondering the cruelties of the human condition.

This week has not flown by.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #21 on:** December 17, 2015, 04:51:03 AM »

I plan a day at home today. I'll vacuum and tidy up, clean off the stove, and begin a large quantity of chicken soup. I like to cook, and chopping and thinking about the processes will keep my mind occupied with other thoughts.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 17, 2015, 04:51:41 AM »

I'm not sure i've recovered from the death of my friend Alan two years ago.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #23 on:** December 17, 2015, 04:52:07 AM »

I got in yesterday's post the 14th season of Midsomer Murders and I watched the first episde last night, along with a rather syrupy movie The Christmas Candle. It's one of those films that make me think, one more rewrite might have fixed its problems. It had a good cast, but the costumes were 1880s yet the year was around 1900, and I never could tell the time span of the actual plot.

DR George, I knew nothing about Love, and now I am certain I have no urge to watch it.

Christmas spirit? I need a Christmas miracle for those I love and myself.

FJL · « **Reply #27 on:** December 17, 2015, 05:11:09 AM »

Planning to watch the highlights from Scrooge, starring TCB, today - I'm finally feeling in the Christmas spirit (which is different in some ways from the Hannukah spirit when the holidays are so far apart).

Druxy · « **Reply #28 on:** December 17, 2015, 05:19:01 AM »

TOD:

Growing up, it was Huntley/Brinkley and Walter Cronkite.

Today, it's Fox News.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #29 on:** December 17, 2015, 05:24:25 AM »

Good morning, all.

Oh my god, a day when I don't have to figure out what time to leave for the high school. A day all my own. God bless us, everyone.
