Yes, just saw the blurb didn't paste in correctly - he'll fix it when he gets my message.

Internet was going in and out for fifteen minutes - seems okay now.

The cookout was good. Burgers, brats, and dogs, with a whole bunch of sides.

Post-dessert, they served "Velvet Hammers," an ice cream cocktail. A little goes a long way.

And I ate too much. Or, as DR George posted last night, "I are too much." I iz.

Lucky #96.

Watched the Company documentary on PBS.org. Really liked it a lot. Except for Katrina Link.

John G. · « **Reply #99 on:** May 29, 2022, 08:00:57 PM »

Gratuitous post 99!

Just watch Mark Rappaport's video essay on Anita Eckberg. Not bad.

Now starting his Debra Paget, For Example.

This week's Covid test is negative.

John G. · « **Reply #102 on:** May 29, 2022, 08:20:27 PM »

BK, did I remember correctly that you said these were the last of the Ben Bagley releases for Kritzerland? No Cole Porter Vol. V?

bk · « **Reply #103 on:** May 29, 2022, 08:58:49 PM »

I forgot about Cole Porter V - so that's the last of 'em. Text for Hammerstein has been fixed.

John G. · « **Reply #104 on:** May 29, 2022, 09:24:45 PM »

Thank you for answering that about Cole V. I love that disc.

John G. · « **Reply #105 on:** May 29, 2022, 09:26:54 PM »

I have finished the last of Mark Rappaport’s odd movie essays. It was “Anna/Nana Nana/Anna” about Anna Sten and actresses who played Nana.

John G. · « **Reply #106 on:** May 29, 2022, 09:27:29 PM »

Another few hours of dance practice tomorrow morning and evening.

John G. · « **Reply #107 on:** May 29, 2022, 09:28:03 PM »

And with that, I think that’s all for today.

John G. · « **Reply #108 on:** May 29, 2022, 09:28:14 PM »

Good night, all.

bk · « **Reply #109 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:03:54 PM »

Finished with my viewing.

bk · « **Reply #110 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:04:03 PM »

And I don't care who knows it.

George · « **Reply #111 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:30:06 PM »

I'm finally home.

George · « **Reply #112 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:33:05 PM »

I had to go to my sister's for a bit, then I went to eat at the local KFC just because.

George · « **Reply #113 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:35:46 PM »

I got the 3 piece Nashville Hot tenders combo with mashed potatoes instead of the fries, and I just now realized that they didn't give me the biscuit that's also supposed to come with the meal!

George · « **Reply #114 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:36:00 PM »

It was otherwise pretty good.

George · « **Reply #115 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:36:45 PM »

I'd never had it before and it was nice and spicy...but not so spicy that I couldn't handle it.

George · « **Reply #116 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:37:46 PM »

After that, I went to Costco to get some laudry detergent that was the whole reason for my leaving my house today.

George · « **Reply #117 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:39:33 PM »

Just before I went in, my sister's boyfriend called, asking if I could meet him at my mom's to help get the new electric lawn mower that we all got for my mom's birthday (early...it's next month) out of his car.

George · « **Reply #118 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:40:25 PM »

I said that I could after I buy laundry detergent, so I bought it and headed over to my mom's.

George · « **Reply #119 on:** May 29, 2022, 10:41:09 PM »

We got the boxed up mower out of his car pretty easily, but is definitely was a two-person job.
