It was a sunny day in Tacoma today.  Cold, but no rain!

I need to get a timer for the outside lights, but since I was getting by on no sleep, I didn't think I should drive anywhere.

It has been a good lazy day. Watching Peter Lorre in Crime and Punishment. It was his first American acting job. Not a great script, but really good acting from Lorre, Edward Arnold and direction from Josef von Sternberg.

Mrs. Patrick Campbell even has a short role as the pawnbroker who gets murdered.

This reminds me of a book that I got last year called Star Trek: The Art of Juan Ortiz, where Juan Ortiz made a 1960s style movie poster for every episode of "Star Trek: The Original Series."

They were originally released in 20 groups of four limited edition posters, but they all were compiled and published as a book for about the price of one set of the posters.

One of my good college friends teaches at a performing arts high school in Florida.  Here is a lovely Christmas greeting from one of her former students:

Christmas Magic

That's very nice, Ginny. :)

I'm joining the chorus and listening to Sandy's Christmas album. Love that Jay Leonhart song about Christmas in the City. And I'm always up for Be a Santa.

The trimmed cutlets were flattened and then marinated in fresh lemon juice and some Marsala  while I dragged the ornaments put of the crawl space, decorated the tree and put the boxes back in the crawl space

I spoke to my friend for maybe 30 minutes.  He sounds tired but he's full of good spirits.  They are giving him some sort of radiation treatment to kill the tumors in his liver and his next one is in late January.  I think his friends' biggest responsibility, beyond praying for him, is to keep him in good spirits and not depressed about his situation.
