For the first time, I think, I've seen almost all the movies nominated for the acting awards and best picture.  I just have to see a few.  Some of them are available on Netflix or Amazon Prime so that will make it easy.

Good morning from Newark Airport.  On my way home from the Big Apple.

Have a good flight.

I took the Newark Express bus from Port Authority and feel lucky to be alive after the crazy driving of the bus driver.  I've never heard anyone honk their horn so much.   He was going around curves at a great rate of speed.   The funny thing is, before leaving Port Authority he made a little speech about how safety would be a priority.

Oh, my!  That looks to be about where we often wait for a bus...

I’m surprised I even saw two.

I may have a problem getting to City Center this morning.  There's a big water main disaster at Broadway and 62nd Street.  Traffic is closed and subways are making no stops between 42nd Street and 96th Street.  I just sent Joshie an email.

Yikes!

The Oscar nominations are odd. Glad to see Parasite among the best picture noms if only because it’s different.

I didn't even know that they were being announced today.

I heard about that this morning and wondered if it would affect you.  I am sorry.  Do you still have running water in the apartment?

Yes, we have water.  This happened twenty blocks south of me, but I'm in that limbo area between the flood and 96th Street where traffic's at a standstill and no subways are stopping.  I talked to Joshie, and I will not be in.  I'll see him tonight at Rob Berman's birthday celebration.

A Very Happy Birthday to Rob Berman!! :D

Tom, I just looked outside.  So far we don't have Snow.

Tumwater got some snow overnight, but it's melting and there's just a very light mist of a rain right now.

DR George it is my understanding that some medications & treatments can help in the earlier stages of alzheimers and a medical confirmation is needed to get them.  Of course I could be wrong.

I've heard that, too.  Hopefully, my mom (who is a retired nurse) is looking into that.

Oy!  I was looking at my wall calendar, and nothing seemed correct.  So I looked carefully at the cover.  I stupidly ordered a 2019 calendar last month!

I read through the list HERE and noticed that Parasite is nominated for both Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film.  I assume that this isn't the first time that that's happened.  It would be pretty cool (yet highly unlikely) if it actually won both.

J.B. saved the day. I was doing a load of laundry when he started squawking like crazy. I went in to see what was the matter and he noticed the washer had started to leak. I’ve been dealing with the aftermath ever since.
