I watched an interesting little film yesterday, that I somehow missed when it was released in 2013.  The film is called PARKLAND, and it stars Zac Efron, Colin Hanks, Marcia Gay Harden, Billy Bob Thornton, and Paul Giamatti as Abraham Zapruder.  It was okay.

We are meeting at a place called the Westgate Inn.  It was originally built back in 1971 by my sister's father-in-law and it was called Little Jim's Pub.  My brother-in-law is Little Jim.  All three of us worked there at one time or another.  I bartended there, but only after my sister's in-laws had already sold the place.

Had a monster burger for lunch today along with pulled pork mac and cheese, chips with poblano queso and guacamole. Most satisfying.

T.O.D.

I was planning to watch my DVD of THE SHAPE OF WATER, but since Amazon sent me a defective copy, I guess I'll have to watch some stuff I've got recorded.

 :(

You could read the Paul Zindel play they're being sued about, in preparation. 

I just called Amazon again.  Told them I was pissed that it was going to take 2-3 weeks to get a replacement.  They were out of stock for the DVD.

They offered to give me a Blu-Ray for the same price and ship for tomorrow delivery, and I accepted.

Pays to be the squeaky wheel.


 ;)

That's great, Druxy!  Congrats on the upgrade!

I went back to bed after my errand - I'd only gotten about five hours of sleep, and just slept another two and a half.

Anybody going to see Love, Simon. It’s getting some nice reviews. Sounds like fun. Of course, I grew up on John Hughes comedies.

I want to see this.

Well, this is not good:  Women claimed famed playwright Israel Horovitz harassed them at an Olympia theater — but they were brushed off.

:o I don't know the actresses mentioned, but I know the stage manager and the production manager.

I think Grand Hotel will be quite good  It's really well cast and the band sounds great.

Listening to some pretty music right now by a composer I know little about but am fond of - I don't even remember why I got the CD I had but it was in iTunes and I played it and remembered how delightful it was - may have been a recommendation - so I'm now listening to his violin concerto and enjoying it tremendously.  Composer is Frederic d'Erlanger.  Whilst writing GEE I listened to about sixty violin concertos and sonatas, maybe more - the reason will become evident when folks read it.

I have two goddaughters.  My goddaughter Emily, whose mother was one of my best friends from grad school, just wrote me that her mother is in her final stages of cancer.  I am in shock.  Please send her vibes for an easy passing.

He obviously didn't learn his lesson the first time.
