Saturday afternoon greetings! It's another rainy day here in SW Ohio, but Richard and I have a date tonight. We're going to dinner at Gracie's and then to see Middletown Lyric Theatre's "My Name is Asher Lev."

If it's the play version by Aaron Posner, I'd seen that at the Arden Theater in Philadelphia. Really excellent telling of the story.

It is, indeed, Aaron Posner’s version and MLT did a good job with it. Richard thought it was very true to the book.

Oh good 😊

I could always watch Mitchum in absolutely anything, but favorites would include:

THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER
FAREWELL, MY LOVELY
CAPE FEAR
THE FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE
and probably RYAN'S DAUGHTER -- if I ever got around to watching it (!)

Also, I always regretted having never watched THE WINDS OF WAR and WAR AND REMEMBRANCE when the rest of the world was tuned in.

Did you read the books? I loved them and was very upset at much of the casting for the series.

One of my favorite Mitchum films is The Last Time I Saw Archie. Never released in any format on home video -

I don't remember seeing this one.

Has anyone read "Defending Jacob"? I just finished reading it for my book discussion group.

Page seven? Really?

Good evening.

I’m sorry to be late. Nicky fell asleep between me and my iPad.

I just listened to some of the Eileen Rodgers & Hal Linden Anything Goes cast album, and the Mary Martin one. How totally strange these arrangements seem now, once one has crash-learned and binged on the Beaumont version.

I love the Eileen Rodgers version of ANYTHING GOES.

Today was a rather nothing day.

Back in 1975, I used to love MATCH GAME ‘75. I thought it was so witty and so naughty. Watching it again on Netflix, it was really pretty awful.

I watched a Nova program about the Kennedy assassination. They decided that Lee dit it alone, so, of course, I disliked the program.

I am half-way through a book that Sharry gave me. We both thought it was about the assassination itself, but it really is about the Warren Commission. It is 600+ pages.

I went out in search of Girl Scout cookies today. They were nowhere to be found, so maybe the sale starts in March.

TCB · « **Reply #194 on:** February 24, 2018, 11:37:45 PM »

I went to the G.S. website. It told me to input my zip code and it would tell me where to find the cookies. Every time i entered the zip code it would take me back to the exact same page. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

TCB · « **Reply #195 on:** February 24, 2018, 11:39:00 PM »

Apparently the start date for the cookie sale this year is a state secret. I blame Trump.

TCB · « **Reply #196 on:** February 24, 2018, 11:40:54 PM »

I wonder if TRump’s daughters ever sold Girl Scout cookies?

The scouts were selling them last weekend in front of the market. Maybe you can find them tomorrow. My friend in Portland is selling them. I can send you some.

I remember when DR Vixmom would mail orders of cookies.

Tomorrow is shedding day. I have a large stack of ~~love letters~~ old bills that I need to dispose of before they take over the entire office.

While eating a Girl Scout cookie my friend's 3 year old said "It is better than eating salad".

Never go to the grocery store when you are hungry! Today I bought a giant size bag of pizza rolls. I like pizza rolls, but I seldom eat them.

It is lucky that my scooter has a very small basket, or who knows what I might have purchased.

I read that as sledding at first and was confused.

Ice cream? Donuts? Cheesecakes?

Jane · « **Reply #204 on:** February 24, 2018, 11:48:34 PM »

Yes, going to the market while hungry is very dangerous.

LOL! I would pay money for a video of me doing that.

Sometimes I get a banana to eat on the way home, better than donuts.

I think I will have pizza rolls for lunch tomorrow.
