I got a lovely private message from a nice fellow on Facebook that he loved Preview Harvey and will be writing a review. He said he did find an error - that The Dirty Dozen was a UA film, not MGM. I responded without checking that I was surprised none of us caught that but that MGM and UA are very confusing these days. But it bothered me all day because I NEVER EVER make mistakes like that - and - I didn't. Of course it was an MGM film. I sent him the newspaper ad.

Except we did. I misread his PM - we got The Great Escape wrong as an MGM movie - it's UA.

DR Ron, thanks for sharing your thoughts on The White Lotus.
I feel the same way as you, and definitely preferred the first season.

Totally don’t get the love for Jennifer Coolidge, and found her character insufferable.

Were you surprised by the way each series ended?

Sunday, FINALLY, this infernal voice student recital that has been in the works since - oh, I’d say, the Eisenhower administration - will happen, and life will return to a semblance of normal for a bit.

LOL.

I’m feeling a kidney stone coming on. My sister passed an enormous one this week. Maybe it’s just sympathy pains.

:(  Good luck.

And if I’m not being clear, the Matthew Broderick TV Music Man is one of the biggest crimes against humanity in entertainment history.

;D  I am glad I didn't watch it.

Rodzinski, I hope you’re back to doing back bends.

Thank you John. I am much better and got good test results via phone, so I’m back in biz. It never really affected my movement, which is what made me fear it was more internal, but I must have twisted a set of muscles fighting evil blackberry vines.

Excellent news.

The last time, the big stone was 5.1 centimeters...NOT millimeters.  It was larger than a golf ball.

OMG.  I feel bad for all of you who suffer from kidney stones.

DR Matthew I hope DD Leo is ok today after eating the trash.  I wonder how long it takes before you no longer notice the post-it reminder when you leave home ;)

HAHA - that's so true.  It will be a while before I won't forget to double check the locks on the cabinet when leaving however.  Thankfully, there wasn't much to "eat" in the garbage, so DD Leo is fine. 

I know I stop noticing my reminders ;D



I'm glad DD Leo is fine.

So, Merrick Garland has appointed Special Counsel to investigate Hunter Biden. When the fat hell will Special Counsel investigate Jared Kushner and the Trump mafia family?

If Wonder Woman married Howard Hughes, then divorced him and married Henry Kissinger, she'd be Wonder Hughes Kissinger now.

DR George I did think about having the shirt made but decided against without knowing the quality and fit of the shirt.

That is a consideration.

A rave for Red, White …
https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/red-white-and-royal-blue-movie-review-2023
I did notice that the Oxford comma was missing from the title

Do you mean, it's missing from the title in the article?  It's small, but definitely present in the artwork:

Oh, yeah!  All through each season, I wondered just who the deceased character would be.  For those reading this but don't know, each season starts with an anonymous death, and then goes back in time to relate what happened.  All the viewer can do is wonder and guess at who the victim will be.  In each season, I was completely fooled.

From DR Rodzinski:
Quote
Ultimately the airport didn’t. They’ve been staying in their rental minivan the last two nights. They believe they’ll be flying out tomorrow. Locals have been helpful.

People staying in their rental cars in what I have read about.  Are they still at the airport or in a shopping parking lot?

Haven’t gotten the full story, but they arrived home.

Can the Preview Harvey mistake be attributed to a mistake by the character rather than the author?

John G, my copy of Hanson’s Fade-out arrived the other day after a two-week wait. I thought I’d read a few pages just to get a taste and couldn’t put it down! The following day the new Rhys Bowen arrived and I couldn’t put that down, either. I’m reading the Bowen first, but was quite impressed with Hansen.

So nice to discover new authors! Especially so when they’ve published quite a few books.

Thanks for mentioning it.
