Three!

Frank Langella and my father toured Europe in a performing group many many years ago.

How cool.

From DR George:

I read the e-mail that went out and it kind of looks like if I've been vaccinated and boosted within a certain period of time (and I am), then I can actually go to work with a very well fitting mask, but it's not absolutely clear, so I'll call in the morning when I get up.

I gather you won't return to work until you feel better.

No, I won't.

Casablanca was in theaters over the weekend for its 80th anniversary. I have seen it on the big screen. Once. It would be nice to see it that way again.

Now I'm craving hot dogs, for some strange reason.

Hmmm...so am I.  It must be catching.

My friend's two new kittens are still cute as buttons!

Very cute!

[Ron Pulliam]

Two very good things:

1) My contact at the VA is ordering me a new mask and associated fittings/hoses to go on my CPAP.  By giving him my CPAP's serial number and device number, he was able to check all my settings remotely and make adjustments. 

2)  My sinuses have miraculously cleared and remained clear for the past hour or so.  I cannot explain it except to say that I have changed my seating position in my den to be as far away from the HVAC register as possible.  My instincts tell me that is a key thing.

Ah, me.

Finished Frank Langella's Dropping Names last night. It was a fun read, funny and at times quite moving.

I met him a couple of times, a very nice man. He played Henry Higgins in the 1990(?) Houston Grand Opera's My Fair Lady. He was wonderful. When I was workiong at Barnes & Noble, one of my co-workers, a very stupid boy, asked him why he broke up with Whoopi Goldberg, and he snapped "None of your busdiness" and only talked to me.

It must be a wonderful thing to have your life revolve around music and theater.  I always enjoyed my times, in the remote past, doing musical theater, but I cannot imagine how rewarding it must be to produce shows with talented singers/musicians on a regular basis.

I could use some vibes. I'm up for a ballet job.

The Danbury Mall used to have a Nathan's outlet in their food court. Perhaps they still do.  I thought their dogs (and their fries) were pretty great.

Yes, I used to stop in there occasionally and it was always good. They might still have it, but I've hardly been in there during the past two years and they've considerably redesigned the food court so I'll have to check.

They did lose the Panda Express, causing me no end of distress.   I had literally just "discovered" it and enjoyed one (1) whole meal there, just before the pandemic hit!

Fortunately, the local Panda Expresses around here have endured.

It's great to hear that someone like that is really nice, when they're already so damned enjoyable on the screen.

That would be cool!  I did buy the Blu-ray Two-Disc Ultimate Collector's Edition a few years ago, but it's not the same as seeing in a theater on a REALLY big screen!

[George]

I did see The Wizard of Oz on the big screen a few years ago, and it was redone in 3D!  And done quite well!

[ChasSmith]

I could use some vibes. I'm up for a ballet job.

Whoa!

Vibes on the way!

[John G.]

Sounds exciting. Mega vibes.

[ChasSmith]

But do you think that's wise, before the hip replacement?  (Ba-dum-bump!)

[KevinH]

Good afternoon!

I told them my dancing was not what iit was since I dropped that six-pack on my instep.

I'm up, I'm up - five hours of sleep.

Food will arrive around two, so I think I'll mosey on over to the mail place and see what's what in about fifteen minutes.

I would like to see it on the big screen.
