That's pretty crappy about what happened to Kerry O'Malley and her show partner!  Damn them!  Damn them all to hell!! >:(

Annabelle is not eating this morning, and so I'm a bit worried about her.

Last night was not as cold as the night before. I slept well, but I had very annoying dreams. All I remember of them is failing to find an easy exit from the airport to the parking lot and in another driving a car from my brother Randy's house, hetting hit with a terrible rainfall, and crashing into the flower bed of some house.

DR George, thank you for burning the requested CDs. You are such an agreeable soul and you never get enough praise for being such a mensch. You are truly one of the best.

I have only seen one Bond film since Connery gave up the role, and that was Danel Craig's Casino Royale. I thought he had the sex appeal and ruthlessness the role required, but I thought the effects were so over-the-top and the fighting so unbelievable that I never cared about seeing another.

I like BK's voyage through the Connery films in sequence, and I think I might do the same. Goldfinger remains for the the absolute best.

Yesterday, Holly Riddick from the Philadelphia shelter posted this photo and comment:
Yesterday I watched this happy little dog get walked back to the E-room- that’s what we call the room where the dogs get euthanized when the shelter runs out of space.

There was nothing wrong with Tracy-she wasn’t sick. ACCT was just full and had no room left.
She got so much love yesterday from other volunteers. Lots of treats and play time. Thanks to them she had a great last day. A small consolation. I had just stopped by her kennel to give her one more treat and tell her what a good girl she was when I saw the tech coming to get her. They leashed her and she hopped out of her kennel, tail wagging. I watched her walk down the long hallway, prancing all the way, happily looking up at the person walking her. I wonder where she thought she was going. I wonder if she was scared when she got in the room. I wonder if she knows how hard people tried to get her out of there. I hope they were kind to her in her last moments. I hope it was peaceful.

Run free, pretty girl 💔

Oh, that is good. If I were willing to put a few friendships on the skids, there are several people I’d send it to today.

Around eleven or twelve years ago I decided it was time to satisfy my curiosity about the Ian Fleming books AND the several Bond movies I hadn’t seen. I read every one of the books in the order they were written. That was really an eye opener, and most enjoyable. Then I watched every one of the films, strictly in the order that they were produced — so in both cases, I was following the arc of their development. Even given the low points in the films themselves, it was an amazing journey, and one I would happily repeat, even if I didn’t follow that same method next time. Bond is a phenomenon.

The price of gas this week at Costco and BJs:

Do you detect a pattern here?

Thursday morning greetings!  We had our first company walk up our new front steps yesterday.  Mary Linda is in Cincinnati on business this week and she came for dinner.

Great notes!

Yes I loved THE LONG, LONG TRAILER which we saw at the drive-in on a double bill with FORBIDDEN PLANET!

I am also appreciating Lucy's supporting role in EASY TO WED in which she plays the Jean Harlow role in this remake of LIBELED LADY.

She's very funny.....of course Van Johnson is no William Powell and Keenan Wynn is no Spencer Tracy......and Esther Williams is definitely no Myrna Loy.....

TOD:

Goldfinger

Daniel Craig's first James Bond - was that SKYFALL?

I really hated his second or third one which was all about his family and his heritage and M mixed up in some fal-de-rol - terrible.  I haven't seen the latest one yet - if it's been released.
