I love my new barbershop. This was my second visit, and I arrived early since I never know how much time it will take me to walk the half block.

Good morning, all.

I hope TCB was kidding about Covid.

DR Jrand70, I first read that as recording take 17 instead of episode 17.

Good morning!

I enjoyed "Judy" and thought Renee Z did a great job. I do think that they should have had her lip synch to Judy's vocals.

Vibes for TCB!

I had intended to see Judy, but I haven't yet.

I looked over her filmography, and the number of very famous films that I've never seen is amazing. I can only really account for these, which I do like:

The Wizard of Oz
Meet Me in St. Louis
Judgment at Nuremburg
A Star is Born (more or less)

I look forward to re-seeing A Child is Waiting. I went to it as a kid (I'm not sure what attracted me to it then) but I don't remember anything of it except for being there, and it's held my curiosity ever since.

My night's sleeps have ranged from the ridiculous to the sublime lately. Last night, I'm afraid, was one of the former. I was fine till three o' the clock, then was suddenly wide awake with every imaginable demon running to and fro in my brain. Then, just for comic relief, I had a sudden allergy-like attack, sneezing and blowing my nose for half an hour.

I don't think I'm going to try to fit a nap in anytime today (and I can never be sure I'll actually fall asleep for one, anyway), but I shall look forward to a mighty correction tonight. I think it will also be a Benadryl night.

DR vixmom, how was Texas Roadhouse in regard to social distancing, etc.? Wow, I haven't been there in forever now. Have to do something about that.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #40 on:** November 10, 2020, 08:25:22 AM »

Looks like this is our last of these beautiful temperatures with no rain. Some is expected tomorrow afternoon. I'm going out in a bit to do another leaf-blowing. I'm surrounded by trees, and I swear half the leaves are still on the damned things. The fall is a never ending round of chores here.

After I've done that, I'll give the grass what should be its last mowing of the season. But I've said that before. I think we've had an extended autumn this year, especially with this Indian Summer type weather. I don't recall having one so late in the year.

I think Judy is better than the movie A Star Is Born as a whole.

DR TCB will you be getting tested for covid and for antibodies?

President-elect Biden's press conference is in progress. Give 'em hell, Joe!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #48 on:** November 10, 2020, 01:12:40 PM »

I'm almost surprised to say "I got it all done".

I must have spent close to two hours leaf blowing. Sounds incredible, no? Trust me. And hell, there's more to do later. Then, mowing the two yards (the conventional one around the house, and the large septic field) takes about 50 minutes, all told. Somewhere in there was a trip to the gas station to refill a couple of cans.

And it felt like summer. No, NICER than summer. Not too warm, and not humid. I'd like to keep it. Sadly, the party's over sometime tomorrow.

This is the last evening to sit on the deck, sipping and supping, and I believe I'll have that DR Matthew-inspired cigar.

Well, this is...interesting: Matthew Morrison Goes Green to Play the Grinch in Filmed Musical, Airing on NBC This December.

BK, I don't know your feelings about Malcolm Arnold's music, but an opera commissioned by BBC television and then rejected for being too racy has been recorded.

This sounds interesting. I just ordered it and will find out.

Today we record episode 17 of Conversations With Jack - wherein I interview our directors for 2021 and talk about their shows....as we optimistically announce the season.

We shall see what happens.

Hope it goes/went well, Jrand!

I daily check the animals brought into the NY Animal Care Centers. Most of the animal in their intake photos look frightened, insecure, lost, or angry, but occasionally there's the exception. This is 5-year old (estimated) Tallulah, who entered the Brooklyn shelter today. I love her confidence.

Love Malcolm Arnold and will definitely get that.

Picked up a package, ate a frozen dinner that was merely okay but very low in calories - went to have a second frozen dinner but that one even smelling it was so gross I threw it out and am making the last of the Regina pizzas - even if I eat all of it it only puts me less than 200 calories over the 1000, which is fine.

Very good, they take your cell # and have you wait in your car and text you when your table is ready.

They are seating in such a way that the booths in front, behind and next to you are empty

All employees are wearing masks, properly. And guests may only remove their masks when they are at table

Tallulah is a beautiful tux cat!

Why do you torture yourself so, DR elmore3003?
