Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

We have 7 buildings in our condo complex. Someone a few buildings over is having a lawn party. We can see too many of our neighbors socializing near each other and only one woman is wearing a mask. >:(

How rude! >:(

And now, here's the very non-professionally framed picture for my sister's boyfriend's birthday:

Very nice, George.

Thanks, Jeanne!

Australia has set large fines for those who socialize irresponsibly.

Wow.  I think this is great, and that the restaurant cared enough to report them.

Here gatherings up to 50 people are permitted so there is nothing I can do about it but stay very far away from these people.

I don't think that is true. Even if gatherings of 50 people are allowed. I'm sure that they are not allowed to be right on top of each other.

I am looking at Washington States rules.  I didn't seen that it isn't permitted, just recommended.  Maybe George & TCB know something I don't know.

No, I don't. :-\

And our county numbers go up.  A healthy 34 year old man in my county just died :(

Oh, no. :-\

Got news today that a long-time family friend died last night. I think he was 96, which is a fine, long run. I saw him at Dad's funeral at the end of the year, along with four or five of their six kids. He had looked good then, but seemed a little frail. His wife died a few months before Dad. They had been married for 70+ years.

John, my condolences to you and to his family.  But your'e right...96 is a fine, long run.

We had more tonight than last night, but I just find it so odd how few dear readers show up for these tests.  But, what do I know from anything?

I was out digging a post hole. I am watching it now.

While still sad, a marriage of 70+ years is wonderful.

The party isn't rude, it is their carelessness that bothers me.  I know they think people around here are "careful" so it is safe for them to socialize  ::)

They were very close to each other and Keith noticed a bowl of chips sitting out along with other food  :o

A fun one from YouTube. An interview with Mel Brooks before Blazing Saddles, Robert Altman after MASH, Peter Bogdanovich shortly after "Last Picture Show" and the great Frank Capra, all on a Dick Cavett show about directors.

It's also interesting to watch Brooks and Bogdanovich smoke throughout the show.

That's really cool!  I don't know if I'd ever seen even a picture of Frank Capra, let alone an interview.

And the camera man right at the beginning of the show!  Different times!

Listening to Toscanini do scads of Haydn.  Previously it was Mozart and while I can certainly appreciate Mr. Mozart I just don't respond to the music, mostly.  A failing on my part.  In fact, I prefer Haydn, who I don't love either.  After Haydn we're getting Schubert and then we finally get a bit more modern after that, like late 19th century wear 20th century.

And I've been listening to Pump Boys and Dinettes. Always enjoyed that show and I love several songs from the score.

I tried finding a Pump Boys TV special that was aired back in the early 80s when they tried to turn the show into a kind of variety show. It was only an hour long, featured about a half dozen songs. But it's one thing that YouTube doesn't have. Yet.
