I thought the Oscar show was rather boring...as usual.

I was looking for a possible major surprise (i.e. upset) in the Best Picture category, but that didn't happen.

Not that they didn't deserve it, but all the winners were predictable.

Must work on music today.

Tomorrow, if all goes according to plan, a visit to Her Grace and Thatch! Oh yeah, and DR Elmore!

Wednesday, the second nor’easter in one week? What???

I’ve got some photographic evidence to post from yesterday, which I will get done a bit later

Would have liked to see more past Oscar winners present with younger actors.

"Her Grace and Thatch" - sounds like a sitcom title from days of yore (anyone else remember the charming short-lived "The Governor and J.J." - the Dan Dailey comedy series, about a Governor whose daughter J.J. functioned as his "first lady" of the state.)

A lot of flat comedy shtick last night among the good moments, but I guess they never know what will work until the do it, like on Jimmy Kimmel's late night show. (I'd never have guessed while watching the star-audience selfie a few years back that it was anything but a time-waster, and it paid off in the days after that year's Oscar show, it seems.)

Shortening the speeches to have time for some of the bits feels like a shame, in some cases (not all).

Monday morning greetings! Busy week for me - daytime ladies' meetings today and tomorrow, current events discussion Thursday evening, and art class in the Dayton 'burbs Friday morning.

When I opened the apartment door to take the litter to the trash and let Annabelle patrol the building, I was surprised and pissed to find that someone had left a Zabar's bag filled with garbage hanging on the doorknob. I hae my suspicions.

It was funny when the guy from GET OUT came on stage, shouting "Get out!"

I got the impression that nobody told him when he should get off.

On my way to the mailbox, I passed Val in the lobby. He says the elevator inspection is at noon.

Last night's Oscar Partay at HHW was most excellent....I enjoyed it....but my typing fingers are sore.

Love the Danny Daniels videos!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #45 on:** March 05, 2018, 07:02:58 AM »

TOD:

Favorite: Eva Marie Saint & Rita Moreno....Maya Rudolph and I forget who her partner in crime was...two funny ladies with some good material, the montages, and James Ivory.

And seeing DR EDI back for an evening.

Least favorite: The songs, the BA winner.....

Jrand73 · « **Reply #46 on:** March 05, 2018, 07:05:34 AM »

MR BK I heartily recommend you try out an HDTV Antenna....some are flat, some look like rabbit ears.....and other shapes.

You can get ALL local broadcast channels.....and the picture is good.

Easy to install - just plug it into the cable outlet on the back of your tv. We have it on THREE tv's at our house....two are on cable....and it's fine for local viewing.

One of the better bits, but I guess they planned an exit when the camera was off him; but I'll have to look again- did the camera ever get off him?

I remember the show. I always liked Julie Sommars and enjoyed the chemistry between them.

And I'm at work. I made it to the car shop and they're going to fix the dashboard light and temperature gauge...for about $370.00. But it'll be working again.
