THREE!

[ChasSmith]

Correction/update to my post yesterday: 

That nearby production is canceled THIS weekend, the same as DR Matthew’s, with half the cast and SIX of the EIGHT pit players testing positive.

[ChasSmith]

Lemme tell you, I will be first in line for the presumably  upcoming new and updated vaccination. My last booster was a year ago, so let’s partay.

[singdaw]

Heat index here today ranging from 102 to 106.

[singdaw]

Give these measures everything you've got.

[Jrand74]

SUPER enthusiasm!

[Jrand74]

All of my favorites for the TOD have already been mentioned.

So I will just say that my SUPER FAVORITES are:

Thelma Ritter
Eve Arden
Walter Brennan
William Demarest
William Frawley

[Jrand74]

I am going to look at ANYTHING GOES tonight.....I am trying to keep my expectations low so that I may be surprised.

[Jrand74]

Casting session vibes for MR BK.

[Jrand74]

Wow!  More Covid theatre cancellations......scary.

[Matthew]

Good Morning.  I'm off to play a funeral at a different parish this morning, and the request is that it's all on the organ.  I'm hoping to get their early to get acquainted with the instrument before the service.  You can't just walk in and sit down at a organ and start playing if you've never seen the instrument before as they are are different and do different things, stop names may be in German, all those sort of things.  I find it fun, I just hope there is time.     Other than that, seeing a show this evening etc... hopefully there will be a bike ride this afternoon.

Those of you who enjoy audio books might find this interesting:

There are some who want to use AI voices instead of celebrities or actors to create audio books.

Give these measures everything you've got.

Reminds me of this legendary Emmy speech…

  in the same stairwell

Wasn't Harry Potter a neighbor, also?

OH, this was in Germany. Never mind.

Maybe Augustus Gloop??

[George]

So, I just looked up the actor who played Augustus Gloop (Michael Bollner) to make sure that I spelled the character's name correctly, and his bio says that he's 6'7" tall!  Who knew??

[Jane]

DR John, nice photo and nice new glasses.

[Jane]

DR George, thank you for mentioning Jed was in the photo.  Once I clicked to enlarge it I could see him.

[Jane]

Oh, and thanks for sharing the photo.

[Rodzinski]

TOD:
Lot of my faves mentioned.

I’ll add:
Lloyd Nolan
Timothy Carey
Kenneth Mars
Warren Oates
Brion James
Gregg Henry
Gerrit Graham (naturally)
Fred Ward

[Jane]

From George:

A former co-worker said that her (adult) daughter was on Wheel of Fortune, and the contestants were told that if for any reason the episode didn't air, they wouldn't actually get any of the prizes that they won on the show.  The prizes are essentially paid for by the advertising, so if they aren't advertised on the show when broadcast, they wouldn't be paid for.

 

[Jane]

I guess if you think about it, it does make sense.

[Jane]

It would be extremely disappointing to win and then not receive anything.

It would be extremely disappointing to win and then not receive anything.

Especially if it was because "your" show was pre-empted for breaking news.

There must be a trick to searching in HHW, but I can never find anything I'm looking for. I searched BK's notes archive and couldn't find any mention of the M Night Shyamalan film.

I usually do better search the archive notes vs posts.  Sometimes what I am looking for shows up, other times it doesn't.  I've learned to search again later in the day as what I wanted popped up on my later attempt.

[George]

Yes!!

[Jane]

And then a day of D&D with Vixdad and some of his friends

Do any of your friends play D&D besides you?  I watched Bryan and his friends play but have never does so myself.

[Jane]

I just ate a very nice bagel — sesame, toasted, one side butter and the other cream cheese, with a sprinkle of everything seasoning. It was especially delicious.

The bagel was very nice because of its wonderful texture, and the sad thing is that we don’t know which place it came from. It’s from a batch that Kristi’s office brought in, and the people who supply them get those things from various sources.

Darn.

[singdaw]

I have never understood how that game works. Interested, though.
