Oh, DR elmore3003 - I do hope and pray that the deal happens. Does Macbeth have to sign off on the drop in price, too? Is that possible?

Today is apparently the 60th anniversary of Judy Garland's famous Carnegie Hall concert.

Barnum is singing and playing with his abacus this morning.  Maybe he's going to write me that check for his bird seed & treats.

DR TCB I am playing King Louis XI - aka The Prudent.....But I will offer to understudy the lead - one never knows when an actor will fall out of the bell tower.

I wondered about that smog test and what mileage had to do with it.

Here in CT you have an emissions check every two years, period. They send you a reminder and you can do it right away or wait till closer to your due date, but whether you've driven zero miles or one million miles is irrelevant.

Zillions of shops are licensed to do it, and it's $20. (Oddly, the $20 has to be paid in cash, even if you're having other work done and paying another way for that. I have no idea how or why that rule came about.)

It's easy and convenient, but when I moved here over thirty years ago it was HELL ON EARTH. The state did the testing at their own handful of locations where you'd sit in the line for hours waiting your turn. It was a horrible rite of passage.

Den Mother Susan Gordon is on THE DONNA REED SHOW this morning - with Myoshi Umecki.  Susan is a young girl who fell off a surf board while visiting in Hawaii.  Alex and Donna travel there to help her - she's been seeing visions of her dear dead father.

I don't know what's going to happen!

It's a 2/3 vote, so if he does not, Randy and I have it, I hope! Like me, they are sick of property taxes.

Awwww.......Susan can walk!!  She thought she saw her Daddy, but it was a Navy Doctor who also was at the hospital after her surgery.

I wonder if this was a back door pilot about the Hawaiian hospital?  Lots of stock footage and new sets......

At the end, Donna and Alex were dancing wearing leis and contemplating bringing Mary & Jeff over and becoming beachcombers.  I couldn't help but think of the leis in the water at the end of From Here to Eternity.....

In the past two nights I've watched Two on a Guillotine, which made me laugh unintentionally, and The Awful Truth, which was a sheer delight, Dixie Belle's number "My Dreams Are Gone with the Wind" being the funniest nightclub number I've think I've ever seen.

Maybe I'm too jaded but the dated silliness and improbabilities of Two On A Guillotine drove me up the wall, from a wealthy heiress inviting a handsome stranger into her spooky mansion to spend the night to her insane and supposedly dead father lurking about the mansion without anyone being aware of it. There was a nice Thelma Ritter role sadly not played by Thelma Ritter,

Wow, I do not remember this episode.  I am sure I knew about it at the time and watched it.

A crazy movie. I loved the visuals, including the My Fair Lady interiors. Too bad it wasn't actually a good film. That house is a museum or something now, in Riverside, CA.

DR ELMORE:
If you’ve been feeling a little scattered lately and have been having a hard time focusing, you’ll appreciate the grounding energy that asteroid Vesta provides now that it’s heading direct in practical Virgo. One of the biggest and brightest asteroids, Vesta has a lot of energy devoted to service and commitment, which are two of Virgo’s strengths.

So, with this pairing, comes a renewed dedication to hard work and doing what it takes to put the pieces back together of whatever has broken down in your life. You might feel like you’re on a mission now, that you have a real purpose for the first time in a long time, which can result in some extremely positive and much-needed changes.

I had never seen it either DR JANE.  It followed the one that had Mary singing "Johnny Angel" at Donna's college.....I remember that one.

The Awful Truth has been a favorite of mine for decades. I remember forcing Mom and Dad to take me to some museum or film class to watch it. Everyone loved it.

Irene Dunne had some fine comedic chops. I also liked her in Joy of Living with a very young Lucille Ball as her irritating kid sister.

I'm up, I'm up, maybe seven hours of sleep. I shall now be on my way to the car place, but today is a disaster already and I'm not actually sure what to do about it.

She's good with William Powell in Life With Father.  I've never seen I Remember Mama, but I've read both the book and the play.

Was it actually filmed in Hawaii?  I think I would have remembered if she had gone there.
