My big computer nightmare was the one I had before I was given this one last September.  The last one crashed twice in its seventh and eighth years, but the one in December 2014 resulted in the loss of two much that were luckily backed up on hard drive.

Spoiler alert:  at the end of the movie, they had her sing beautifully in her mind.  Meryl Streep sang it very well.

They did the same in the play Souvenir that played on Broadway with Judy Kaye. The Cosmo charater (the pianist and the only other character in the play) wondered what she was hearing in her head when she sang. I knew how beautifullly Judy Kaye could sing and it was interesting to hear and see the reactions of the people around me afterwards. I got to see her after the show and told her the other people's reactions when she sang Ava Maria. She told me see got a lot of that.

That is a nice story Michael.

I slept better than I expected to a different much better than Keith did.  His alarm woke me at 4:45 and mine got me  up at 5:00.  I had just enough time to finish reading my book.

Thursday morning greetings!  We're home today getting ready for the book group potluck dinner tonight.  I know we're having Honey Baked ham and turkey, but have no idea what the others are bringing to go with it.  Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be good and we'll have fun.  We're watching ROOM after having read the book.

I haven't had any bad computer scares, thank goodness. But I've had some annoyances. Like when the hard drive on my last computer was starting to fail, so I bought a new computer and the technician specifically asked if I wanted to have everything from the old drive copied to the new one, and I said "no" because I had a backup. But I really needed to make a new backup, which I planned to do right away. Well, of course, the old hard drive completely failed before I got a chance. The tech was still able to copy everything over, but what he had offered to originally do for free while the drive was still working now cost me $160 because it was now a separate service.

So sorry to read about MR BK's computer machine woes.....

I have had a few....of course, I usually just buy a new computer....that is how I ended up with WINDOWS 10 this time.

Dealing with the latest "script errors" was most irritating, but changing my homepage seems to have worked.

Sorry, DR JRand, I fixed it!  It wasn't your computer, just a copy & paste error on my part.

I think the article is more interesting than the movie is going to be.

Thanks to DR GEORGE and DR ELMORE for their FFJ movie reports.

DR Ginny, I need a 1973 Middletown City Directory.  Any sitting around waiting for your book sale?

I doubt it and it's all boxed up in a storage unit over on Carmody Blvd., anyway.  if you'd like to send me a list of what you need to know, I'd be glad to research it for you in the local history room at the public library.

The play that TCB was in did not have that kind of an ending.

Darn! :-\ The 128 GB memory card for my tablet bit the dust last month and I lost everything on that...mostly photos from a couple of shows that I worked tech, some videos that I had downloaded from YouTube, and some apps that I had to reinstall.  I took it to a local computer place and the guy said that if they were able to retrieve data from the crapped out memory card, it would cost $400! :o However, if they couldn't, it would only cost $50 for them to try.  He also said that only about 2% of memory cards are retrievable, so basically (if I wanted), I would be paying them $50 to tell me that they couldn't do it.
