Inappropriate and you should have said so. 

I did that’s when I discovered the owners’ opinions.

Very good.

[Jane]

I went to the ladies room and washed my ankles while the waiter found me another table on the other side of the porch

And that too was appropriate.

[Jane]

The Comcast guy turned off the interest for a little while.  Keith did not inform me it was about to happen.  I told him I was in the middle of a conversation & one second away from posting.

[George]

Hi, Jane!  Look what arrived!

[George]

And this!

[George]

Thanks so much!

[George]

Such a strange story in an article I ran across, that Andrew McCarthy is seriously being considered to be a new James Bond.  It's just odd that as a choice which they say is to be the first American James Bond, he's be the name they'd go with.  It made me wonder if it came from his own publicity folks trying to float the idea.

That's very strange.  I'd assume that his people spread the rumor.

[George]

And he's a'most 57 years old.  When recasting roles, the new actors tend to be younger than the previous actors.

[Jane]

Hi, Jane!  Look what arrived!

Yay.  It is from Diagon Alley aka Shambles Street.  Did we guess correctly that you are a fan?

[George]

He is someone who could certainly act the part, certainly look the part though on the older side, as he's mid-50s  -but maybe they want someone who while still known is not so super-famous.

Ditto.

[Jane]

Thanks so much!

You are welcome.

[George]

I've certainly enjoyed the movies.

I also thought he was a bit on the old side.

We thought so.  As I said, it was Keith who first thought of you.

Watching Scotty and the Secret History of Hollywood.

That reminds me that just yesterday my copy arrived from the library, so I'll watch that now.

[George]

...after I empty my dryer then refill it.

[George]

This movie of Scotty Bowers is strange. It's part Grey Gardens. There's a scene of skunks eating a birthday cake that is beyond strange.

SPOILERS!!

[Jane]

I did two loads today.

[Jane]

I should mention the staff working the Barkfest volunteered to be there and had fun working it 😊

[George]

My biopsy results arrived on the dermatologists "my chart" page last night.  I do not have to return as they were benign  

Great news, Jane!

[Jane]

Thanks George.

[George]

Thank you, Druxy, for the review of WOMAN IN HIDING. It sounds like an excellent film. Unfortunately, Netflix doesn't have it, but I'll keep an eye out for it.

What about your local library (or Interlibrary Loan department)?...said the library employee.

[George]

I voted today. We had a bunch of odd resolutions on the ballot, including one that sounded like a cryptofascist method of preserving Confederate memorials.

Hmmm.  I do hate to see them destroyed.

I don’t understand the love of confederate memorials or displaying the confederate flag especially by people who are simultaneously claiming to be “true American patriots”.  Why would we commentate and celebrate an attempt to destroy the United States and the deaths of so many?

Exactly!

[George]

When we were visiting in Alexandria we discovered that was an especially dog friendly city.  so many of the restaurants had outside eating and dog dishes available.

It’s great when the dogs are well behaved and stay with their owners but I had to ask to move tables to get away from a black lab that kept crawling under my seat and licking my ankles

[George]

From the (quasi-)sublime to the ridiculous...Taylor Swift and Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote an all-new song for the ‘Cats’ remake.

I don't. In fact, watching them being destroyed would please me more than I can say. Seriously. My dad has been a lifelong lover of the Confederate cause (credit his Alabama upbringing). I always felt I was in the wrong house. I have never felt any connection with the South. I have always thought they were traitors. Maybe I just didn't like being dragged to Confederate monuments as a kid.

Needless to say, I agree.

I'm watching an interesting Dutch documentary now called Buddy. It's about disabled people's relations with their dogs and how the animals are able to help them. The people vary in age from a kid with a host of conditions from autism to epilepsy whose dog gives him unconditional love to an Afghanistan vet whose dog helps with his PTSD as well as his wounds. The dogs are amazing, and the love is genuine. And they don't lick strange people under the table.

Dancing was fun tonight. Halloween party. I went as a chef, same as I do every year. It's the one costume I own.

[John G.]

Lots of swing and cha-cha. Plenty of people. I'm tired.
