It usually takes two to bump.  But apparently not, in DR ChasSmith's case.

From DR John:

Finished The Worst Hard Time earlier. What an amazing read.

I am glad you liked it.  I read it with my Ashland book group and we all had the same reaction.

I just saw DR JANE's close personal friend Flip Mark on The Lucy Show.

Which episode?  Was he the Kid, or Junior White?

I came up from the basement to find the internet down. It'sa been coming and going regularly for over a year.  It wiull be out for 15-30 minutes and then back. The last time I called Spectrum about it, they told me I needed a new modem.  So I called Spectrum after I knew it was out for over 45 minutes. The technician I spoke to wanted the modem number, so I crawled onto the floor and under the table, and while I was trying to read the tiny print in semi-darkness, I pulled the cable tpop hard anmd that dislodged the plug to the power cable. I then needed to crawl around with the dustbuster under the computer table before I could try to replug the whole shebang. Once everything was replugged, I was stuck on the floor in an awkward position and unable to raise myself off the floor. No matter what I did, the pain in my hi joint was unbearable and I could not get close to anything stable to use to pull myself up. After what seemed an eternity, I got off the floor and now the pain is horrible.

Whew!  That's an adventure DR ELMORE.

I wrote my modem number on a sticker and put it on the bottom of it on my printer so I wouldn't have to go spelunking.

Well in all the West Side Story books and videos everyone talks about Richard Beymer - good and bad, and critics are merciless.

But in ALL of this material I have never read exactly how he got the job.  Nobody claims to be the one to have hired him to play the part.....Wise, Robbins, the Mirisch Bros.

It seems like he just wandered in and started acting....has anyone read exactly how he came to be cast?  In what book?

I have never been a big Garland enthusiast, and I will never understand the cult.

I like these movies:
The Wizard of Oz
The Harvey Girls
The Pirate
Meet Me In St Louis
A Star is Born
Judgment at Nuremberg
Gay Purr-ee

I wish Doris Day had starred in Annie Get Your Gun instead of Garland or Hutton.

Yes it was a lovely SuperMoon last night.  So DR ELMORE should hear something about the property before the end of the week.

That would be nice.

We enjoy seeing the moon here whenever it's one of those spectacular ones and the sky is clear. Last night was no exception, except that none of us had the wherewithal to stay up till the peak hour of 11:30, but we made it till 10:30 and it was like the brightest highest-wattage pure white LED-colored light you could imagine.

I'll bet it was really wonderful earlier when it would have been low in the sky, which is when they have the most color and look the largest. I still remember one of the greatest of those showing up over Los Angeles when I just happened to be in a friend's apartment that was high up enough to afford an amazing view of city with the moon over downtown L.A. Actually, I wonder if I still have a photo of that. It'll take forever to find it.

This reminds me of this video that I came across several years ago, and it's incredible.  It's in real time and there are no special effects!

And then I found this other video that's during the daytime (but this one was filmed in time-lapse, so it's faster):

DR George it is nice you have a friend living in your building.

Thanks, Jane.  She's not actually in my building.  She's one building over, but she's still pretty close to my place. :)

Day was terrific as Calamity Jane.

Did you ever see Mary Martin’s TV version of Annie Get Your Gun? She was old as Ethel, but she was game.
