Well, you've read the notes, the notes were thirty years in the making, and now it is time for you to post until the thirty year cows come home.

Continued from yesterday:  My new TV has very few options (I did find the various zoom options, so that's something), but it's supposed to be able to view 4K Ultra HD content.  We'll see if I actually can find some (free) 4K Ultra HD content.

Another very nice review for GEE on Amazon - not sure who this is actually:

"GEE by Bruce Kimmel was as unexpected as it was a delightful journey into the past through GEE's eyes. I've been a fan of Mr. Kimmel's books for years. This novel was entirely different from all of his others. It's not a mystery or a book about time travel, but a sweet story about a most "peculiar" girl finding her way through life on her terms. I love that GEE is a strong woman with her own mind. She's a great role model for my daughters' as is Peyton a sweet and determined girl in the second half of the book. Once I started reading, I was instantly transported to another time. I got so caught up with this story that I found the book really hard to put down! What I love about Mr. Kimmel's novels is that I always pass them right on to my daughters who love them just as much as I do. But for me, the best part of Mr. Kimmel's books are the conversations we embark on together as a family. These books are rich in history. Much like Peyton in this story, we too were busy on Google looking up the past which led to so many discoveries and discussions. A fantastic book and a must read!"

Good night, BK, and have a good day, all!

You've mentioned that you're working on a show, but not the title or working title. So, can you divulge that?

Thatch has become very chatty with the birds on the fire escape.  Between 5:30 and 6:30 he sat in the window and chattered away like mad.

So, today I may do laundry, although I'd just as soon procrastinate.  I'm still feeling quite lazy and lethargic. I'm blaming the weather.

Boy, talk about a low energy morning. This is the very definition of one.

More coffee!

I need to look at some passages and patch changes that were weird last night, then we’re back at it this afternoon.

Sets and costumes are really good, so it will be even better to see the cast in makeup today.

Annabelle and I made our patrol.  One of the nice Japanese boys from four walked down the stairs and scared her when he appeared on three and headed down to two.  We were on the landing between two and three, she was checking out the window, and as soon as he showed up, she ran up past him to my apartment.  I was surprised because she generally flirts with everyone she encounters.

I'm going to market while the laundry is washing.  I need some deli ham and turkey to give Thatch as a treat after his atenelol.

Page Two - GYM DANCE.

Here is a photo of me, my brother Mike, and our friend Martin under the arch donated by the class of 1914.  Behind us is the gym where the stage in the picture I posted last weekend is located.  The High School, later the Jr. High building was located at the end of the sidewalk behind us, which now runs into a nice fir tree.

I have one more button than necessary buttoned on my jacket.
