An interesting opinion piece on how what happened with Epstein is unfathomable given the standard operating practices of the the Bureau of Prisons.

Thatch, Stella, and I finished watching Carry On Cleo.  I then turned onto a PBS station, which seems to run nothing but fund raisers on weekends, and watched a bit of a Carole King concert.  She sang "Tapestry," which I haven't heard in years, and I found myself in tears.

DR TCB your room looks great.  The couch looks good.  Is this the one that is not the way you want it to be?

Good, so you have dropped your efforts to change it?  Do they owe you money for the difference?

I do believe it was a good error that they made.

I have returned from the Movies - in which I was the ONLY PATRON at the 5 p.m. showing of ONCE UPON A TIME...IN HOLLYWOOD.

I liked it.....with most of the reservations that MR BK spoke about after he saw it.....but since I am a long time fan of both Mr. Pitt and Mr. DiCaprio.....I don't have a lot of complaints about them.

A movie about movies always has a place in my heart.....and when one of Rick Dalton's Italian movies co-starred Miss Carroll Baker....well....add another half star to my review.....

The soundtrack is divoon.

I guess my only big complaint - besides you can't rewrite history when it's writ - is that Sharon Tate was much more beautiful than the actress who played her - although she is certainly NOT lovely.

But to see Sharon Tate in FULL ON BIG HEAD CLOSE UP during her death scene in Valley of the Dolls was to see beauty personified.....

Craig returned from a movie outing by himself when we lived in Ashland & was not happy with the one other person in the theater with him.  The guy sat in the empty seat next to Craig. :o and creepy.
