DR RON PULLIAM - I watch a crazy show on the ID Network - I think - called Love After Lockup about folks who start relationships with people in prison and then try to make it work on the outside when said prisoner is released.

It is a trainwreck as you might expect and the delusion is REAL.

One man who thinks he is good-looking and smart and chases a lot of women who love him - because he has a couple of million dollars - said a couple of weeks ago that he was interested in getting married in a church. And he proclaimed that G*d is the Alpha and the Ro-meo.

Which just goes to show you that having money doesn't make anyone smart.

I have been updating mailing lists using various texts and e-mails I have received in the past few months.

Man! Finding things you know you have on your phone, but which appear in different guises, is quite an ordeal when you still haven't had your first cup of coffee.

All right, I am very perpleed.

I attempted to reply to a post by JohnG.

I don't see it anywhere.

Is there an HHW triangle where such posts float around and later land with a thud?

I'm giving it my best, DR Ron. Meanwhile, thanks for the earworm!

On the previous page, DR JohnG said that the British get the pronunciations of things like Genghis Khan and Don Quixote correct.

And yet they muffle things like "oregano".

How, you may ask?

The Italians pronounce it Oh-REG-uh-NO (emphasis on the all-caps).

We Americans pronounce it the same way.

But the Brits pronounce it Oh-reh-GAH-no.

I mean...really.

I could have suggested "Tap Your Troubles Away", but that would be too much.

Good morning, all.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #42 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:33:37 AM »

I've been up since 7:30, indulging in a morning of reading.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #43 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:38:02 AM »

I did enjoy another night of solid sleep, but only until about 6:30. The usual weird dreams have yet to come into focus, so I have nothing to report in that department. They're not as buried as those of the previous few nights, but they persist in being a little bit unreachable.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #44 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:41:09 AM »

Last day of November. Unbelievable. Sometimes it almost seems like 2021 was a bigger nothing-burger than 2020. Which doesn't make any sense, but there it is.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #45 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:45:32 AM »

Perri. Wow. I remember nothing about the film, and I would probably have never remembered on my own that it even existed. But I know we as a family saw it. Whether that was at a theater or drive-in or on television, I couldn't tell you. Very likely a drive-in, actually.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #46 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:47:57 AM »

Love the rats in Nosferatu. But I also especially love Herzog's take on the whole thing. A wonderful film.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #47 on:** November 30, 2021, 07:54:44 AM »

I went to see Willard while at school in Cleveland, and I can almost guarantee that I had little appreciation then for the style and attitude of the film. I don't even know if I saw Ben later, or either one since. However, I actually have both on my DVR recorded from TCM a while back, and I've kept them with the intention of watching them one of these days. I shall do so soon.

We had bought the double pack of 12 rolls each of the Kings Hawaiian rolls, and I just now polished off the last three -- in the first package! Oy! But they are delicious, and I promise that the rest will not go to waste.

Making these even more of an indulgence, I had also bought Kerrygold butter which is a bit on the pricey side, and the combination is to die for. Or perhaps to die OF...

The strawberry preserves don't exactly suck, either. Oy!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #49 on:** November 30, 2021, 08:05:26 AM »

With that, I take my leave. Till later...

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #50 on:** November 30, 2021, 08:22:04 AM »

Am back after addressing some small packages I send out to a few relatives prior to Christmas.

I have been sending brooches or earrings of a "seasonal" nature to the female members of my family. Have done this for about 25 years or so.

My Amazon Studio device has just informed me that Melissa McCarthy is available to tell me the weather or some jokes...for a fee, of course.

Why I would want this, Alexa did not say.

I would not want this under any circumstances...not even free.

Interesting factoid. "Perri" was nominated for an Oscar in the category of Best Original Music Score. Paul Smith was the composer.

As Bruce has already alerted us, today is truly the final day of the month of November in the year two thousand twenty-one.

It is shocking and a reminder I have much to do in the next three days.

Hmm, not that I know of. I would have pressed the back button and seen if my post was saved to copy and try again.
