I think they are showing TBF in HD at Comcast ON DEMAND....at least it seemed to be so when I watched it yesterday.

We just got an all-staff e-mail saying that all libraries and the Service Center will close tonight at 5pm. Also, all libraries will not open tomorrow until noon, so we'll have a couple of short work days.

Thanks to JohnG for the nice words about the new book. I'm quite excited for people to read it. I'm not sure if I'll post the Sherman blurb just yet, although it contains no spoilers, but does reference the title, albeit not as the title

I recently obtained the first two. Have had the Willson LP for a number of years (thank you eBay).

Had a nice lunch with my book dealer friend and his lovely wife. I had the kids' mac-and-cheese, a side of bacon, and a bagel. The mac-and-cheese was even smaller than usual - couldn't have even been two ounces of pasta.

In the meantime, I'll have to go back to February House, the tale of the building where W.H. Auden, Benjamin Britten, Carson McCullers and Gypsy Rose Lee all lived at the same time. Odd roommates.

I read that when it first was published.

did you like it? I'm enjoying the beginning.

Yep. i knew a lot about it because of Britten and Pears, but I learned a lot, like George Davis helping Gysy Rose Lee write "The G-String Murders." I was surprised that there was no mention of Gypsy's lesbian streak.

Perhaps her literary streak was too much of a surprise for most folks.

You know, the Holy Bible admonishes we humans against using the word "fool" in reference to another being.

I've come to believe that Pat Robertson's purpose in life is to severely test us against that admonishment.

I did not know this. It seems few people follow this practice of not calling another being a fool.

As for Robertson....

I spent my Sunday cleaning out two closets in my bedroom.

Piles and piles of shirts and trousers, several pairs of shoes and a couple of jackets were placed into plastic bags. Will be donating to St. Vincent de Paul.

There is ever so much room in my closets now!!! What to buy? What to buy? [NOT!]

Not when you are downsizing for the big move.

Then I think you should wait.

Good evening !

KevinH · « **Reply #72 on:** February 06, 2017, 04:13:22 PM »

Our temperature is going up and down this week. It's going to be 68 tomorrow, 38 Friday and back to 66 on Sunday.

I enjoyed the "Bowl" yesterday---the Puppy Bowl, that is.

Is there ever any doubt?

And now, I'm leaving work. Where will I go? I'm not sure, but I'm not going directly home.

Be back later.

Last night we watched a heartwarming movie, A Street Cat Named Bob. It is a true story based on the memoir, AND it stars Bob.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #80 on:** February 06, 2017, 05:50:59 PM »

Just watched the first two episodes. 18 to go!

I'm hooked.

I can talk about our exciting walk today.

Jane · « **Reply #84 on:** February 06, 2017, 06:43:00 PM »

I don't have much to say about motivational speakers.

bk · « **Reply #85 on:** February 06, 2017, 06:45:28 PM »

Let's hear about that damn walk and let's hear about it motivationally.

Jane · « **Reply #86 on:** February 06, 2017, 06:45:39 PM »

We headed out for our walk and within minutes the wind picked up making us colder than expected. Then it began to lightly rain. I came back inside, changed out Keith's hat for an umbrella & scarf and grabbed a another layer. Of course the rain then stopped and the sun came out again and I was too warm

Leslie Odom Jr's father in-law is a motivational speaker and has written a book.

Bruce, you do you recall that Stuart is married to Ronnie, Larry, and Ricky's little sister?

I am sending packages to all those who need this.
