Well, you've read the notes, the notes had their whole damn foot in the water, and now it is time for you to post until the foot in the water cows come home.

Good night, Jane.

Today, I get to sleep in. As far as I know, I have no plans! I don't know if the whole family is getting together for lunch/dinner, but I'll find out after I wake up. Otherwise, I'll just watch TV and/or do laundry and/or work on burning some Blu-rays and or DVDs.

But now, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

I am very saddened by the news of John Lewis' death. I admired him enormously.

DR JohnG, I saw Zizi Jeanmaire in her big Broadway flop, the early 1980s revival of Cole Porter's musical Can-Can. To be kind, it was a real stinker, from its disco musical arrangements to its dreadful faux-nightclub musical staging. Poor Jeanmaire was not very good, and my close personal friend Avery Schreiber and Pamela Sousa in the Hans Conreid and Gwen Verdon roles were the only bright spots.

I slept quite poorly last night, so there musat be an HHW cycle of poor sleep going about.

DR TCB, it's nice to have you back.

I got a funny email this morning from a friend who's reading Bastard Out of Carolina and horrified by the pedophilia and incest. I told her to stop reading it.

I have no plans for today. Temperatures are into the 90s today so I do not plan on stepping out. Once the cleanup is finished, I plan to be a lazy slob with three slothful cats to lounge with me.

Kitty cleanup is over. I need to make the bed and vacuum, which must wait till it's past 9:00am.

Today would have been my mother's 97th birthday.

BODY DOUBLE

I saw it in a theater when it was first released, and, according to my inventory list, I have it among my 4000+ DVDs..though I've never watched it on DVD.

I really have no memory of the picture.

T.O.D.

I like most of Hitchcock films. Even those of them that are not his best, are certainly interesting to watch.

I'm pretty sure I saw Body Double at the theater. I didn't see it again till the Twilight Time release came around, and all I'd actually remembered of it by then was that a bunch of stuff took place in the Chemosphere house. But boy, did it all come rushing back. Yes, that Beverly Hills scene is beyond the pale, but I also hate it because that hideous arcade they put up on the grounds of the Luau restaurant had always pissed me off. From my perspective, that was the start of the downfall of the Beverly Hills we knew and loved in the '60s and '70s (the '70s for me).

I can list my favorite thrillers pretty easily by taking notes at my shelves, so I'll try to do that later. I doubt that there's anything significant not represented there.

Here's something I never knew existed: Menotti's one-act opera The Medium from a 1948 telecast with Marie Powers, the roller-skating diva who created the role of Madame Flora.

Wow. Thank you for finding and posting that!

I would imagine that every time DR ELMORE goes shopping, he has to make a CATALYST.

Last night's show went well according to posts on the Facebook, so hopefully tonight's Hamelt will also be a success.....

Traffic noise seems to be the only down side - but what is Shakespeare without a semi truck, a loud car radio, and a lawn mower or two?

Four-mile walk done. I'm in for the night.
