That's wonderful, DR elmore3003. I'll bookmark that for later.


That sounds a bit condescending!

I'm doing the same, because this day is already getting busy and I'll watch when I can relax and enjoy it properly.

It certainly wasn't intended that way. It's just that I'm logging into work right now.

Doesn't DR John G. also have a hand surgery coming up?

Monday, to be exact. Vibes, TCB.

My friend Keith Geckeler, with whom I went to school from grades 1-12, is a minister in the San Francisco area. Recently, he shared with a storytellers group at his church a piece titled "I Grew Up" which is a series of one sentence vignettes from childhood.  It was on Zoom and someone recorded it and posted it on You Tube. Keith's wonderful portion, beginning at 36 minutes, catches everything about growing up in Middletown in the 1950s.

I only listened to Keith’s part, but it was funny and wistful and wise. Except for the “stupid” cats remark.

This is great!

Were Keith's parents Steve and Elizabeth, aka "Tommy"?  And did he have a much younger sister named Kim?

Today is laundry day. It must be done.

I took today off so that I have less than 240 hours of vacation before going into the new year (I'm also taking off the day before New Year's Eve day).  I think today will include some laundry doing, too.

Perhaps I'll put on Sandy Bainum's and/or Brent Barrett's Christmas albums.

Certainly can't go wrong with either and/or both of those!

MR BK your favorite Mouseketeer Darlene Gillespie spent time in the slammer for a wire fraud she and her then husband were involved in...she also sued Walt Disney because he promised he would make her a star.....and she was eclipsed by Annette.  Darlene swore that all of Annette's fan mail came from members of her extended Italian family back in Utica.

Her sister Gina was in several movies - most famously as the young Blanche in Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?.....

I loved the original Ikiru. Saw it on a Christmas night about 25 years ago. Just magical, but it could have lost maybe 10 minutes.

Cocktail party tip:

Look the stranger straight in the eye and say firmly, "Hot Potato!" and then walk away.

But she sure could sing and before the show hit the air all of the folks working on the show put their money on her being the breakout star.

Horrible remakes I’ve actually seen:

A Room with a View
Babes in Toyland
The Manchurian Candidate
