LOL @ DR RON PULLIAM - I watched THE BARKLEYS OF BROADWAY last night and I really loved how that final scene played.....Fred & Ginger are great when they turn it on!

But poor Fred is just awfully......well.....plain looking or maybe I used to stunning folks in movies....and Miss Ginger's "acting" in the play is just so awful it's hard to believe.....I still can't understand why she is SO MAD when she reciting....it's scary bad!

I have always pondered that ridiculous scene, but I keep coming back to the same conclusion: It was truly Ginger Rogers thinking she was being great!

Back from a LOT o' stuff. Car started fine, but has been wonky about locking properly - until I got home, when it locked as it should - we'll see if that works. I did go to my repair place and they checked the battery and while it's down just a bit, it still seems to be healthy. But they said immediately that there's a short somewhere that's not shutting things down properly - it's $95 for a diagnostic, which, for me, is a waste of money because I think a repair bill to fix it will be throwing good money after bad at this point in time with this particular motor car. But, I may take it in and let them have it for a day. But that means I'm sans car and that's really hard at this time of year, and Uber is a joke.

Hard drive is at Fed Ex and ready to go. Some clearly insane black fellow was walking the parking lot screaming at everyone trying to pick a fight. When people wouldn't engage he'd say "What, you want to shoot me, kill me, call the cops?" Someone SHOULD have called the cops because these deranged individuals are just the kind of people who will pull out a knife or gun.

Have accomplished nothing, nada, zero, zilch today.

So lethargic.

I did get to the post office (nothing special there). Went out for a cheeseburger and onion rings. Very tasty.

Napped. Pondered things.

Thought about more things. Napped again.

Got out of my chair and walked over here to my laptop to type some thoughts.

Such a life.

We need to know where you had the very tasty cheeseburger and onion rings.
Thanks in advance.

DR singdaw it is my understanding that Being the Ricardos opens in theatres on December 16 and starts streaming on Amazon Prime one week later.

My late uncle's two kitties are going to be re-homed [not through a shelter]. So they had to go to the vet today to make sure they are okay and all up to date.

It took three of us to capture them and put them in their carriers. And oh the crying and moaning......it was pitiful. I felt so bad. I know they were calling for their master who just won't be coming back......

They came home this afternoon and will be gathered again next week for the trip to their new home. They do get to stay together.

AND it turned out that my uncle was mistaken when he said they had last been to the vet in 2018......it was 2009!

$600! And of course it's out of our pockets right now because the estate money is frozen solid.

We'll be writing a few checks to ourselves when the smoke clears....with receipts of course.

That's what I'm afraid of to DR RON PULLIAM. I have read that it was hard to convince Miss Rogers of anything once she had made up her mind.....which I guess is why for her first few performances in HELLO, DOLLY! on Broadway, she wore her wig backwards.

John G. · « **Reply #137 on:** December 02, 2021, 03:07:45 PM »

I made up for your inactivity, Ron Pulliam. I am exhausted after the day. I feel like a pinball shot in too many directions.

Omicron has reached MN. Not for me personally. But it's here.

We picked a good time to be heading out on a road trip.

We are leaving tomorrow morning.

We are sort of following the same route we attempted during the summer was our car door was damaged.

This time we will go to warm Palm Springs instead of San Francisco. In fact we will be there for my birthday and Bruce's.

Thursday afternoon greetings! We've been to Dayton for Richard's second appointment at the burn clinic. Nurse Practitioner Erin was very encouraged and says the likelihood of skin graft surgery is significantly reduced because feeling is coming back. That, of course, means pain, so he's on meds for that. We had a nice brunch at First Watch on the way home and I did a very fruitful (well, cookie-ful) errand.

Wonderful news.

VIBES A SKIN GRAFT WILL NOT BE NEEDED!

Calling the cops probably would have escalated the situation. It is a sad situation.
