Nope. The writer J.B. Priestley.

I like Thai food hot enough to make the waiter turn away.

I haven’t eaten food that hot in a while. I may have to go in training.

BK, for reasons unknown, I have very recently spent several days wondering about Brahm's Lullaby, but your notes made me finally go to Wikipedia to learn more. I always thought it was a corruption of a Brahms melody from a piano or orchestra piece, but no, he wrote it as a song:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiegenlied_(Brahms)

I actually learned and sang the song in my voice lessons in college.  I had taken a class on how to pronounce foreign languages (Latin, Italian, German and French), so I was able to sing it (at least, back then) with pretty accurate German pronunciations. :)

Jesus H. Christ! My Hewlett Packard black ink cartridge has gone from $65 in January 2022 to $84.  This is ridiculous.

Larry, check out the Epson Ecotank printers.  Their ink bottles are less than $15 each (deoending on where you get them)l, I'm sure) and they really last years!

Today has been really chilly, but the weather guessers promise the storm system is moving out and will be replaced by sunny and warmer weather.

On the other hand, I see that the northeastern U.S. is likely to get another blast of snow and winter weather tonight and tomorrow.

Stay warm, y'all.

My doors are looking pretty darned good right now with all the cleaning, sanding and painting that has been done on them.

 Something tells me the timing is off for NordOst, “The First Russian World-Class Musical.”

Also billed as “The best night out in Moscow.”

Listening to Gershwin Country, Michael Feinsten’s album of duets with country singers. Nothing wrong with it. But nothing much right with it either.

Perhaps just a bit "precious"?
