Thanks, FJL. I've now got Nancy Lamont's version of Rhode Island Is Famous for You spinning in my head. Things could be worse.
My question for ASK BK DAY: Have you seen "The Lieutenant Wore Skirts"? I happened to watch it on FX RETRO on Monday.It features Miss Leslie Parrish in a very nice small role as a party guest early in the proceedings. She looks beautiful in a blue dress and her hair is long....Of course if this is the kind of script that Fox was offering Marilyn Monroe in the mid-50's, you really can't blame her for running off to New York. Sheree North and Tom Ewell can't do anything with it.....Rita Moreno plays a part as a "girl upstairs" and does a terrible Monroe impression....describing the movie "The Seven Year Itch" to Ewell who says: "I never saw that movie."The comedy is played so frantically that is becomes UNFUNNY....I can't believe it's directed by Frank Tashlin.....
So why is it "in Rhode Island" but "on Long Island"

Last night I met my friends from Greece and we saw "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." I enjoyed it. Christian Borle was very funny and the young boy (he's one of three) who played Charlie was very good. My friends were impressed to see "Mamacita" from "Feud" (Jackie Hoffman) on stage.
Vibes for Ginny.
Wednesday morning greetings! I have given in to my sore throat/stuffy head/cough and made an appointment with the doctor for this afternoon. He usually treats me for allergies until on the second or third visit he finally prescribes an antibiotic. We'll see...

Feel better soon!

Feel better soon!That's what the doctor always says, DR Jane, until I get sicker and sicker. I'm hoping this is just spring allergies.
And the word of the day is: DOX!
So, I go to take my car out for the first time after my surgery, and the battery is dead. Had to buy a new one. Bummer!
