DR Jane asked:

DR Jennifer if you have to wear masks outside where it isn't crowded, that is excessive.  Can you take masks off in restaurants once you sit down?

No you don't have to wear masks outside. Restaurants are closed. But yes you can take them off when you sit down.

What I am wondering, DR Jennifer, is what can you tell us -- if anything -- about caravans of semi truckers headed for Ottawa to protest policies about vaccinations.

Free N95s?

We have no Sams Club here, that I'm aware of. Just Costco and BJs.

Yes, the federal government is making 400 million N95 masks free to citizens via drug stores and markets throughout the country.  Availability is dependent upon when they arrive.

Sam's Club is a part of the Walmart organization...and Walmart is one of the distributors of those masks.  Walgreens and CVS stores in SC are expected to also have them beginning tomorrow.

Outside of "Cocoon", which I love, I cannot think of another Brian Dennehy film.

In case you didn't know it was coming, this is on the Warner Archives slate for March, or thereabouts.  It's done like they did for "How the West Was Won"....and that was spectacular:

Currently closed but when they reopen you can take the masks off to eat?  How long have they been closed?

They are re-opening at 50% next week. I think everything (bars/gyms/movie theatres...) closed late December.

Yes you can take masks off when you sit down.

I just know that they are protesting the vaccine mandates.  Here at least there have been all kinds of new measures this week. You currently cannot go into a big box store unless you are vaccinated. And it's similar for truckers (not being allowed to go from US to Canada without being vaccinated.

With all of your restrictions I hope your hospitals are not as over crowded as ours are.

BK, the interview was most enjoyable. I didn’t know Richard Skipper, and I thought he ran a good show and even asked some good questions.

BTW, the lack of ideal lighting was not a problem in my opinion. It wasn’t distracting, and I liked that the “side light” aspect lent a bit of a softer, almost cinematic quality. It could certainly have been too harsh, and it wasn’t.

Parts of this was filmed in Rothenberg, which is about 20 minutes from Mom’s hometown.

Fun night of dance class. Everyone got the steps in no time, and two were rather tricky.

Watching a rather remarkable independent flick called Swan Song, which is not to be confused with that other independent flick out called Swan Song.

This one stars Udo Kier as a retired hairdresser asked to do the hair for a dead former client. Kier is remarkable. In his words, "I'm supposed to make a dead bitch look human."

The script is a little long. Some of the scenes don't work. But Kier is fierce. And one scene, in which he encounters a woman who could only afford to have him do her hair once, is touching in all the right ways.

Swan Song has come to an end. I had no idea the main character was based on a real person. I doubt the story was real, but the fabulousness remains.
