Well, you've read the notes, the notes were woke and deeply troubling, and now it is time for you to post until the woke deeply troubled cows come home.

And the word of the day is: LENITY!

First post after BK!

George · « **Reply #3 on:** February 07, 2018, 12:16:16 AM »

I have no questions.

George · « **Reply #4 on:** February 07, 2018, 12:20:20 AM »

Actually, I thought of one...are there any cast album reissues in the works?

George · « **Reply #5 on:** February 07, 2018, 12:21:06 AM »

And now, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

John G. · « **Reply #6 on:** February 07, 2018, 05:15:42 AM »

Good morning, all.

Jane, what did you think of that version of Nicholas Nickleby? It was the with Nathan Lane, right?

John G. · « **Reply #8 on:** February 07, 2018, 05:17:11 AM »

Why isn’t it Friday?

That’s not just for BK to answer.

I rose at 7:00, fed the babies, and went back to bed, because I wanted to stay there for a while.

It's snowing, and Annabelle seems perplexed by that. The birds are few this morning.

More coffee!

Yes. I thought the cast was wonderful and enjoyed it very much. Of course much was left out of the book which was fine. It has been too long since I read it, and I have only read it once, for me too miss anything.

I remember enjoying it a lot, too, though I was bothered in the beginning by how blond Nicholas was. After Roger Rees, I don’t see Nicholas as a blond.

Cute. I don't recall any of our cats being perplexed by their first snow.

All of our dogs, except for Belle who we found as an adult, we're snow dogs. They were all very excited the first time they experienced snow.

I, too, have had ENOUGH of these new words - or new uses for old words....especially if they mangle grammar and syntax.

It is almost as though it was a crime to speak and write properly.

I hope to never be WOKE, but then again I don't want to be SLEEP all the time either.

The East Coast is supposed to get a LOT of snow. We got our inch or so here, and that is plenty - thank you very much. Now it is just COLD.

It was very light and shiny.

DR Laura:

Have you seen the news stories on this massive crayfish that can clone itself?

Wednesday morning greetings! We were supposed to have great-nephew J again this afternoon, but both school districts that employ his parents are closed today due to snow. They're having a nice family day at home.

I think the director Douglas McGrath is Mr Classics-Lite, and while I enjoyed this abridged Nickleby, I think he tends to go for the glamor of stars, humor and camp, as he did with EMMA, than finding the author's voice. I prefer the BBC mini-series and the brilliant Royal Shakespeare company epic.

It is. And I agree. But he makes entertainments, as Graham Greene might have called them. If it gets someone to read the source, so much the better.
