TOD:

A Room with a View
Cold Comfort Farm

Show Boat (The Whale version)

Plus Elmore’s list

I would add the first two to my list and add:
Midnight Cowboy
Gods and Monsters
Maurice
Sense and Sensibility (Emma Thompson)
Phantom of the Opera (Lon Chaney)
I love James Whale's Show Boat, but the last quarter certainly veers off from the Broadway source; the silent film is much closer to Ferber's novel.

The entire trip from leaving the apartment to the basement with recyclables to barber to corner market and back home took me just about an hour. Very nice!

Good news, DR elmore3003.

I'm not sure about that sign DR singdaw....I have heard that everything on the internet IS true.

"Everything on the internet is true." Abraham Lincoln.

This new book intrigues me!

As usual, I'm a day late and a dollar short.
The answer to the scrambled eggs conundrum is, in a word:

Cream.

ZERO carbs, and makes the best scrambled eggs ever. And use plenty of butter, also zero carbs.

Heavy cream, or whipping cream if they don't have heavy. Carbs should still be listed as 0 or <1.

That book looks fascinating, DR elmore3003.

Unfortunately, there was a new round of gushing water from the ceiling last night. I'm secretly hoping that it starts affecting the bathroom in the apartment below ours, to give management a little more incentive to do something about it.

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jim Steinman has died. Loved his songs for Meat Loaf. He did write several musicals, including Dance of the Vampires.

Oh, no. He also wrote songs for "Streets of Fire." I love that soundtrack!

I cannot believe I forgot "Rosemary's Baby" or "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" and "Psycho!"

Rebecca is another I forgot.

A just verdict from Minneapolis.

Justice has been served in this case. May it be so in many more cases still pending.
