Well, you've read the notes, the notes had some wee coincidences, and now it is time for you to post until the coincidental cows come home.

This is long, so I'm glad I saved it before I tried to hit "Post"!

I would like to change my username to DR Iris, and no longer use “lurker”.
Can anyone here on HHW instruct me on the right way to do that?
Mind you, I’m still unable to place your quotes correctly, or know how to add links and photos. Sigh.

I nominate George. And I will just call you Iris, regardless of what it says on your posts.

Iris, at the top of each page is a link to your PROFILE. Click or tap on that, then long-tap the MODIFY PROFILE. This is on a device like a phone or tablet, but if on a desktop computer with a mouse, just hover over the MODIFY PROFILE button and a drop-down menu will appear. Tap or click the "Account Settings" link at the top of the list, and that's where you should be able to change your display name.

The David Mamet film I believe is The Spanish Prisoner

Favorite Clousseau film The PP Strikes Back even though the Diamond has nothing to do with the story of the film

This is my ME day. I'm not leaving the apartment, I'm in my play clothes, and I am doing little as possible. I must put the long-postponed laundry together for tomorrow, but I plan to spend most of the day watching DVDs and lying around with my babies..

After my walk to Staples and dealing twice with the lobby steps abd a walker, my legs were not happy, so I'm giving them a rest today.

I finished the DVD of Martin Chuzzlewit. Paul Scofield is quite wonderful, and I love Julia Sawalha, who plays abused wife Mercy Pecksmith Chuzzlewit. Her villainous husband is played by a wonderful actor I did not know, Keith Allen. Joan Sims, from the "Carry On" comediesm has a turn as an alcoholic Cockney nurse and friend of Sairie Gamp.

DR elmore3003 - your plan for today sounds fabulous.

I think the only Pink Panther film I ever saw was the original.

Steve Martin:
Roxanne
Parenthood

Good morning, all.

I've been awake since 4:23 a.m. when all I thought I was awake for was to visit the necessary.

Wrong. I was awake. Period. At one point around two hours later I began to drop off into a strange but totally harmless dream, but the cat sensed it and took care of that in short order.

At least I can tell the vax side-effect fatigue has left the building. I can get a few things done around here today.

Steve Martin never appealed to me, going all the way back to his SNL days. His style and brand of comedy leave me completely uninterested.

After years of resistance, I finally watched two movies I thought he was fine in -- Leap of Faith, which I rather liked, and The Big Year, which doesn't do anything for me but I can get through it. I believe I found him fine in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels but I haven't seen that in years.

I, too, only ever saw the original Pink Panther film. That's not 100% true, as I know I've stumbled across one or two of the sequels on TV and maybe even enjoyed a scene or two. But I never sought them out and really watched them. I wouldn't go near the "remakes" with somebody else's ten-foot pole.

I enjoyed all the Peter Sellers Pink Panther movies

vixmom · « **Reply #24 on:** November 12, 2022, 06:02:25 AM »

I like Steve Martin as well

vixmom · « **Reply #25 on:** November 12, 2022, 06:07:26 AM »

Trains, Planes and Automobiles
Roxanne
Are my two favorites
But I also like
Three Amigos
Leap of Faith
The Big Year
Parenthood

And I love him as the dentist in Little Shop of Horrors

That being said, I thought the Pink Panther remakes with him were terrible
