Having a better day vibe for DR ELMORE.  At least you're not Blanche Hudson.

I watched a Gay Nineties Revue on ROKU.....featuring an old vaudeville performer named Joe Howard, a singing quartet, and Sophie Tucker type singer, an opera singer, a dancer.....and the Arnaut Brothers and Nellie - whose act must be seen to be believed....

I found a link on YouTube... the show ran on ABC from August, 1948 to mid 1949.

Back from the Monica of Santa, being helpful (Nick's widow and ever-lovin' Julie has asked me to represent his collection o' stuff, which I'll either parse out to dealers or perhaps to an auction house), and then lunch.  He has a most amazing Sam Peckinpah archive - signed stuff, scripts, letters, telegrams, production files on all the major films - that's the biggie and I've already written one dealer who would kill to have it but who I don't love dealing with as he tries too hard to talk down the price he's willing to pay, which I'm not interested in at all - simply not going to allow him to get it all cheap to only watch him make ten times what he paid, which is exactly what would happen.   I'll know right away if I want to even discuss with him by his response to the e-mail.  I also e-mailed the Profiles in History auction house, since Nick and I were both fond of those folks.

He didn't have much theater-related stuff - the rarest of which is an original Carrie poster from the London production starring Barbara Cook, in mint condition.  I've put a query up in the window card group on Facebook.  If anyone here is interested, private message me - I'm trying to get a value on it.

I hope you get all the right answers.  I think it is wonderful you can do this for them.

I keep reading about adults possibly needing booster measles vaccinations if.....https://www.yahoo.com/news/u-measles-outbreak-raises-questions-immunity-adults-144506034--finance.html

I just went over my adult children's records & they look like they are fine even though they are in the age bracket for this.  I just wish Keith could remember if he has had measles.

We have had a beautiful sunny day here.  Of course we took a very nice walk.  We circled Fort Vancouver, Pearson Airfield, at the fort, and walked around the beautiful officers row.  Mt. Hood made a perfect backdrop for the little airport with all the planes flying in and out today.

We then walked over to downtown Vancouver & the growers market, then back to the river. 

Almost 5 miles in 2.25 hours, not too fast of a walk.

Jane, you could always ask the doctor or pharmacist about a booster shot.

I had one around 1996, when there was a single case at our elementary school. The school nurse (who was a friend of mine) said every child and adult had to provide proof of vaccination to enter the campus. I was a volunteer at the school, so I got one right away.

Heard from Triton Gallery, so have a good idea what the London Carrie window card is worth - he thinks eBay is the way to go, but I'd reather sell it to someone who really wants it and save all those fees.

We lunched at California Pizza Kitchen - had a really cute and funny waitress.  We shared some spinach artichoke dip, and I had a Caesar salad with chicken - all very good.

Listening to music now, but will soon choose audio samples for our two upcoming releases, and start on those liner notes.

Thanks.  I had measles as a child.  I don't suppose I could prove that without a blood test.  I just wanted to confirm our kids had two shots vs one.  The news stories say adults their age might not have had even one MMR and only one vaccination that was the wrong kind.  I confirmed they had two vaccinations, the second being the MMR.  I don't know if the first one is the better type.  I will ask Bryan.

I really not as concerned about Bryan in the ER.  I just hope all of Craig's students have been vaccinated.

I don't need to ask Bryan, my kids are good.

I really just posted the link in case anyone else wanted to read the details for vaccinations prior to 1989.

I guess our best hope for the collectible things that mean a lot to us while we're around at least wind up with someone who wants it enough to pay something for it.  For the most part, I think I'd rather have something that was important to me burned in a furnace like "Rosebud" rather than end up in the collection of someone who never wanted it or gives it a thought.  So it sounds hopeful that a lot of Nick;s stuff will wind up with people who actually want the things, at least for a generation or two.

I don't know if I ever had a measles vaccination. My mother could never remember. I supposedly had measles or mumps as an infant and a vaccine possibly for the other, but she couldn't remember the details.

About 28 or so years ago, I was covering a community college in upstate New York that had a measles outbreak. The campus was quarantined and long before SKype, they let me sit in on a meeting by phone because it wasn't known if I ever had measles or the vaccine.

From an obit in today's San Antonio paper:

-- -- -- of San Antonio Texas, age 92, passed away peacefully April 23, 2019.
She left behind a hell of a lot of stuff to her daughters, who have no idea what to do with it.
Somehow, they will deal; that 35 year in the making garage sale hasn’t happened yet.
She was renowned for her know it all, lack of patience, quick dry wit, take no prisoners, tell it like it is. We love her deeply and will miss her as a true force of nature. Her heart was big, and she would do anything for her family whom she loved so much.

Exceptionally long day today. After church, it was dance practice for 2 hours, touring an open house with Joy and asking questions for her about the house, an afternoon at the Symphony with Fiesta Pops, then Bible study.
