I still feel puny.  I am also sleepy, but Annabelle insisted on breakfast and she wanted her birds fed.  So . . . I am groggy and shuffling around the apartment.  I will spend some time lying down, wishing I could sleep.  I also want to listen to The Crucible this afternoon.

DR Coronado, the USA and Britain could have used your code services in WW2.

"One man's death is another man's living
Under the gallows tree"


One of Ira Gershwin's wonderful lyrics for the executioners from Kurt Weill's The Firebrand of Florence, which I am listening to as I putter around the apartment.

As soon as I clean the litter box, I am heading back to bed.

HA!  Well my sister is picking me up at 12:30 p.m. and we will head for the wedding.  It will be nice, but it will be a bit cold....we shall see how long I will stay after the MAIN part is over.....

My sister says she will bring me home when I am ready.....  Of course I'm ready NOW, but that doesn't count.

DR Ron it is nice to see you.  I have wondered how things are there. Relaxing for now is smart in my opinion.  Often with a move there is a tendency to get over involved with activities.

I'm up, I'm up - five or six hours of sleep and apparently there's another teardown happening because the noise on a Saturday morning is beyond belief.

IB tech/technicolor are dye transfer prints that never fade, i.e. Technicolor prints.  I had tech prints of every MGM musical from the Golden Age - Wizard of Oz, Singin' in the Rain, American in Paris - all of 'em.  I showed movies every Saturday night for six years and had my annual movie marathon every Christmas.

Saturday afternoon greetings!  It’s a college football doubleheader day for me.  Michigan just took care of Rutgers and finally put in a new quarterback.  Now it’s time for THE game of the day - Ohio State vs. Penn State.  I have no emotional investment in this one, but I do like to see the Buckeyes lose...

I picked up my produce box today. LOTS of zucchini and yellow squash. Good thing I like it.

Also lots of dried dates.

As I still haven't received The Cruicible, I would assume my last CD package has reached an end. Is there a way to find out, BK?

TOD 1:

I'm not familiar with Judex. I see it in the Criterion Collection, but I've never watched it. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I have made my S'mores Rice Krispie Treats. I put Golden Grahams with Rice Krispies, added cocoa powder to the marshmallow mix.

Then I put chocolate on top and sprinkled more marshmallows on top. Then I popped it under the broiler to get the marshmallows toasty. I have to let it sit for a while, I guess, before I can actually try it. The chocolate melted a little under the broiler.

On Thursday, I went to 54 Below to see the Broadway Tenors, the group formed by Brent B. They were launching their new CD.  Great performances by one and all, including Ryan Silverman, Kyle Dean Massey, John Cudia, Sean McDermott and Mr. B.

There's a video on Facebook of the opening number. It's really fun.

I now feel like I'm coming down with something. I have lots of Sambucol here, lots of food, and lots to watch or read. I did the laundry and had hoped to do some cleaning, but may just rest today. I'm worn out.

Glad to hear about the new sound designer. I hadn't realized that position was still open.

Good news from TCB's sister. I'd say that sleeping through the night is quite significant.

Continued vibes to her.

It's good to see Ron posting again. I've known several people--all of them men--who looked forward to retirement, only to feel adequately rested after six months to a year and ready to go back to work. Knowing that you don't have to work can make a big difference. Of course, some choose to keep relaxing. I think a lot depends on one's health and what second career options are available.
