I picked up one (1) plain bagel yesterday at the store and am eating it now, toasted, with cream cheese. I haven't had one in a few weeks, and it's so delicious I wish I'd picked up at least one more, if not several more. Damn it to HELL.

Congrats on the new car order, DR George. But I, too, am shocked to hear it's going to take five months to get it. That must be due to the times we live in, with shortages on car parts. But still.

I also have to wonder why - when it's a custom order anyway - they couldn't at least offer you some cherce in seat coverings. But that is the way of corporations.

I know I have seen that cut number from the Into the Woods movie before, but where?   Perhaps it was included as a bonus on the DVD?  I think Streep performs it very well.

It's wonderful and she's really excellent. I fell in love with the song as soon as I heard it.

I do love Subarus now, and that's where I'll go when it's time to buy new again.

Subarus are especially popular in northern climes, with their all wheel drive. I see scores of them every time I'm out. I hear you can go to southern states and see virtually none at all.

So, last night, for my very first time, I watched Nightmare Alley. The original, not the new Guillermo del Toro version.

WOW. It's a trip, for sure. I went in knowing nothing about the story, only the setting, and my jaw was on the floor half the time at the content they managed to get in there or allude to in 1947. There's apparently even more that they didn't. Amazing, really. I will revisit it soon to listen to the commentary track. And I'll definitely go to the new one at some point to see del Toro's take on it.

Amazing. I have the Blu-ray here, but I must not have checked out everything on it. That is incredible.

I still remember, shortly after we met when you were 16, and discovering our birthdays were one day apart 😊

George, either black or dark grey should be pretty with the blue exterior.

Sadly, they felt they could fix it without having a crane remove the unit. So GS will be disappointed.

THERE YOU ARE.   That should be the title of something-or-other.

Or, in your case, WHERE ARE YOU?

I did not succumb to HHW peer pressure this morning.  Before I ever logged on, I had a cup of coffee and an apple fritter.  YUM!

And then I had another cup of coffee while I surfed.

I always felt that part of the movie ended too quickly...this song would have served it very well.

I doubt the riding stables I went to as a child are still here.  My best friend and I met George Hamilton,  looking dashing, after our ride and chatted with him while he waited for his horse.

George Hamilton was super nice and very friendly to two young girls.

They left without saying a word. I guess they are done?
