Well, you've read the notes, the notes were cheesy, and now it is time for you to post until the cheesy cows come home.

And the word of the day is: INEFFABLE!

Goodnight.

Topic of the Day: I recorded onto my DVD burner side seven (disc 4, side 1) of the laserdisc release of all the filmed versions of Show Boat. Side seven is the supplemental material, which includes the 15 minute segment that was filmed for the novie, Till the Clouds Roll By (with Lena Horne as Julie), two trailers for the 1951 color version, and a Still Gallery from all the versions.

I'm thinking that I should wait with recording the Show Boats onto my DVD burner. I should ask Larry if he can hook up my laserdisc player to my Windows XP computer. That computer has the program I use to record programs to make Blu-rays. Even though these laserdiscs wouldn't make good Blu-rays, they could make good DVDs...especially because the program can make menus and chapter breaks anywhere I want them. My DVD burner can pretty much only make random chapter breaks ever 5-6 minutes.

I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

I did not want to get out of bed this morning, so I turned off the alarm and went back to bed. Thatch joined me and we dozed for ten minutes when Stella declared she wanted breakfast.

The cats are fed, I've checked my emails, and, voila!, here I am.

DR Jeanne, it was nice to find you here yesterday. How are you feeling? I used an ambulance service to get me home from the hospital, and it was the best $60 I've spent in some time. I need to check my credit card receipts to see the name of the company.

This is 9/11. I was in London in 2001 when the World Trade Center was destroyed, and it was quite a frightening time for us New Yorkers who were recording there and uncertain when/if we would ever get home. I will listen to part of the memorial this morning while I tidy the apartment.

DR TCB, I saw the news about the Miami U students. All I can say is, there are a lot of idiot Trump supporters in Ohio. My cousin tells me she sees plenty of Trump slogans and yard signs and none for Biden-Harris.

The cats had a party after I went to bed last night. I have a lot of tidying this morning. I also need to drag out the Big Ladder. Oy!

As a cat owner, DR Elmore should know to keep the liquor cabinet locked.

Luckily, I don't drink much and they're just babies, but I hate it when the neighbors call the police.

OMG. I may or may not have seen Genghis Khan back in the day, but I must see it now.

The only time I would have gone then would have been to a drive-in with the family, and I’m thinking we did, in fact, do that. But no matter. Bring it on!

Last night I suffered one of the most annoying nights of insomnia ever.

I’d had a two-hour phone conversation with my MD about who’s playing what in Assassins, followed by BK’s test run for this weekend’s show, then it was time to feed the cat. Then I puttered for a bit and called it a night. But I was wide awake. I put the clock radio, tuned to a decent late night FM classical station, on 60-minute timer, which usually does the trick. Not so this time. I had to reset it TWICE. Even after I got to sleep, I was waking up every hour feeling like I was still trying to get to sleep. Oy!

I will surely make up for this with a nap sometime today.

I just got some good news from the NY Dept. of Labor:
As you may be aware, New York State has been approved for the Lost Wages Assistance (LWA) program, which will provide $300 in additional weekly unemployment benefits to New Yorkers. Payments will begin next week.

Under federal guidelines, benefits are only available to individuals who are unemployed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on information you have previously provided to the DOL, you are pre-qualified for the LWA program. You do not need to take any additional action to receive these funds.

Have you heard anything from Connecticut, DR ChasSmith?

elmore3003 · « **Reply #20 on:** September 11, 2020, 07:00:29 AM »

These payments only cover August, and no more at the moment.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #21 on:** September 11, 2020, 07:26:15 AM »

I have not heard anything yet. Supposedly, CT is doing it, but there's been a dearth of any recent updates.

Rumor has it that the original title of that Broadway show was The INEFFABLE MOLLY BROWN.

The two ramrods behind the SHAKESPEARE IN THE PARK fiasco are Caroline & Shelly.

I am horrified to report.....as I previously did.....that Miss Caroline's mother passed away two weeks ago....and last night Miss Shelly's mother passed away.

No words.......

The original Stepfather was a fun indy horror flick and the first time I remember seeing Terry O’Quinn, whose performance is still a class creep-out.

The remake? I didn’t bother.
