I don't know what that guy's story is.

[George]

BK born today. Ryan O’Neal exits. RIP

Oh, no.

[singdaw]

  Wonder what all Barbra had to say about Ryan in her book.

Yes. Curious.

[singdaw]

I have heard that they have to recall and reissue all of the deluxe Sound of Music soundtrack boxsets because all the material on one of the discs got reproduced on another disc in error, instead of what was supposed to be on there. So they had a grand release announcement last week, but now they'll have to re-ship everything in February.

How does that happen? And whose head should roll?     

[Jane]

We had a wonderfu video chat.  Freyja opened all of her presents tonight and liked them and played with them while we talked.

[Jane]

We are having popcorn tonight.

By not exposing his identity, when Batman is driving the batmobile he is either driving uninsured or committing insurance fraud.

As are the aliens who visit us.

LOL!

[singdaw]

Hope BK is having an enjoyable dinner out and a night at the movies.

[singdaw]

I don't know anything about May December.

Is this just on the CDs? Someone in quality control at the pressing plant will be taking the heat.

FromDR Rodzinski:

After a year and a half, we finally got our appointments for our interviews to get our Nexus border cards. This will allow us to more quickly pass through the border. A big deal. Some days we have to wait in line behind Canadians who come here to pick up parcels and gas.

That took long enough.  I didn't realize Canadians received priority.  Good luck with your interviews!

They don’t receive priority. People go through in the order they arrive at the border. Just sometimes a lot of Canadians are headed in to get gas when we just want to get home.

Then it is the cards vs the special Washington License that will get you through faster.

Nexus cards are quickest. You barely have to stop. The Washington license allows us to flash it instead of a passport, and during certain hours at the Peace Arch border we can use it like a Nexus card.

One of the four CDs is a duplicate of CD2, IIRC.  This kind of thing happens at the plant.  Not all the sets were like this.

Craft Recordings is aware of the issue. Any sets they were going to send out will be held up  until all are correct, with an estimated February 2 shipping.

People who already have theirs from Craft or other sources, like Amazon.com, can contact Craft for a replacement.

As for whose head should roll, I nominate singdaw to step up to the plate and take one for the team!!!

[Ron Pulliam]

Good morning, all.

I have zero plans for the day, so little is apt to get done.

It is supposed to be partly sunny, which I guess means it will also be partly cloudy. 

The difference, I am guessing, is that when it is partly sunny it is "mostly sunny, and when it is partly cloudy it is "mostly" cloudy. 

I wouldn't bet on either.

Tom Snyder (from the old late-night NBC "Tomorrow" show) would kid the local weather forecaster Frank Field about his forecasts and once said (paraphrasing) "I always rely on Frank's forecasts, like when I walked out of my building the other day and stepped into three inches of partly cloudy."

LOL

[DR Iris]

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

Barbra posted this immediately after Ryan O’Neal passed away today.

So sad to hear the news of Ryan O’Neal’s passing. ❤️ We made two films together, What’s Up, Doc? and The Main Event. He was funny and charming, and he will be remembered.

[DR Iris]

Feel better vibes for Larry.

[DR Iris]

Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate!

Well, if I must.

[singdaw]

Lawdy, I'm up WAY past my bedtime.

[singdaw]

Good night, friends.

[John G.]

What’s Up Doc? A fave from childhood. Wonder what all Barbra had to say about Ryan in her book.

They made the movie after their relationship ended. He didn’t get screwball comedy any more than Barbra did. Peter Bogdanovich had to act out their parts often for both, as you can see in the extras. She loved everyone on the picture but she didn’t get it while they were making it.

[John G.]

Thanks to all for the additional birthday wishes - I love 'em all.

I hope it’s been a great day.

[John G.]

Good night, all.

Glad it wasn't my decision.
