TOD:
Kritzerland at Sterling’s 75 was wonderful! Mark and I have been arguing for weeks over whether or not The Partridge Family's "Echo Valley - 26809" would be sung or not. I was sure it wouldn't, Mark was sure it would. He won. We were thrilled to hear it and even more thrilled that Bruce himself sang it. And on top of that, "Terminal" is one of our very favorite Guy Haines songs, so we were very happy all around. On the way home Mark suggested that a mash-up could be done of the songs "Beef Lo Mein" and "Chinese Food in Bed".

Many car vibes to George!

Thanks, Fred! I dropped off my car and got to work about an hour and a half earlier than I usually do.

DR GEORGE that same thing happened to a cousin of mine. He just jiggled the steering wheel a bit and the car started......I hope you have an easy fix with your car.

TOD: I don't know that I have any real top favorites among the big studio monster movies

But I do recall an imaginative movie (called Alligator), about a father who flushes his kid's pet alligator down the toilet, and it grows in the sewage system and wreaks havoc. i recall that it was quite intentionally very funny at times amid the terror.

I think I saw that

DR Druxy, I watch Going My Way every other year or so at Christmas, but it wasn't a best picture. English Patient, however, I loved. I've seen it now a half-dozen times, including twice at the theater. The scene of lighting the chapel is a favorite--and it wasn't in the book.

I agree Going My Way wasn't a best picture, and I too have watched it a few times. I really don't have any interest in watching English Patient again though if Keith wanted to I would not refuse.

Thanks, Jrand! It turns out that it's done. They're going to pick me up now. It'll be about $375 + tax. $:-\$

I've picked up my car from the auto shop and it was the starter. It cost about $400. I've paid more for other things, but since it's the first time that I can remember replacing the starter on this almost 19 year old car, I'll probably never have to replace it again...EVER!

Thanks. That's it, for now (an Avenue Q reference). I do have some other issues that will need to be addressed eventually: a new clutch, a front-end alignment, an oil pan leak (although, it's never leaked oil onto the ground) and there's something about the lower ball joint. So...one step at a time.

This is a very interesting tribute to him. I did not know most of what I read. I am sorry he died while at the same time surprised he did not do so a number of years ago.

84 is not that old, IMO, so "a number of years ago" is nearing my current age.

I'm 68 going on 69. When do you expect I'll depart?

Because of what I read I thought he was rather ill and he didn't look all that good either. Considering we are about the same age, my number of years ago was not intended to go back that far
