My back is not doing well today at all. I don'ty know, as I reported earlier, if it's a kidney, a pulled musicle, or that damned crush disc in my lower spine. It has not been a happy day.

I've been watching the 1999 BBC adaptation of David Copperfield with Daniel Radcliffe and Maggie Smith as Aunt Betsey Trotwood. I watched it in 1999, and I'm amazed at how much I had forgotten and how wonderful the cast is. How could David's mother have been so taken in by Mr Murdstone and his evi twin? Trevor Eve and the wonderful Zoe Wanamaker are the stuff of nightmares as the Murdstones.

I did remember, though, how wonderful Maggie Smith is as Aunt Betsey.

It’s a cat kicking up a storm in a litter box. I had to look twice at it.

It’s not Wednesday, but I will ask Bk anyway:

How important was Facebook to the Indiegogo campaign?

Monday morning greetings!  As soon as I get one last piece of information, I can get the 2022-23 program book for Middletown Current Events Club to the printer - whew!

...and it's back to the drawing board because the person we invited to be our speaker has declined.  I think I'll take the material to the printer anyway and leave December TBA.

It’s a sign of the times, as Petula sings …

The theater where I usher is having active shooter training.

TOD 3:
I have a rather strange musical on my to-watch table. Fritz Lang’s You and Me with George Raft and Sylvia Sydney. Kurt Weill score. It’s all about greed and the love of money versus the love of a good woman. The DVD box doesn’t even mention it’s a musical.

A wayfarer reaches the top of the mountain and asks the soothsayer, "I have a strong desire to live forever. What can I do?"

"Get married," replies the soothsayer.

"And I will live forever?"

"No, but the desire will disappear."

Our performing arts center just tells us to do what we feel most comfortable doing in the moment...flee, hide, or fight.

I've had to take active shooter training at work, but it's been several years since they offered it.

It will be interesting to hear if DR John's program offers better options than was you were given.

What's really sad is kids having to take it. :(

After talking to Craig about the class training & what he can do to protect the entrance to his room, I simply try not to worry.

Most of the Indiegogo action came from Facebook, so very important.

Finished the first pass of episode four. It's a bit different than the others but I think it works.
