I may do a bit of shoveling and sweeping of the sidewalk.  We shall see.

The sun is shining....for what it's worth.

We got another inch of snow last night.....and it is now 3 degrees.

I have 22 more degrees than DR Jrand73 has.
But I'm not bragging. We're in the true cold of winter now, for a while.

The sun is out. So that’s a plus.

Didn't watch the Emmys, but recorded them, just in case something outrageous happened.


The Hollywood Reporter review of this year's Emmys show was quite good.

I was reading my classical music news headline aggregator, and read this: "Royal Ballet Chef Dies."

I looked again; it actually says "Chief."

I was thinking, what would a Ballet Chef do? Put out a few celery sticks?

The extras on Walkabout are fascinating. They spoke with the young boy, who was the director’s son, and with Agutter. There’s also a documentary with the man, which I haven’t seen yet.

Thank you.  I liked how they introduced it and then began with Norman Lear.

Thanks DR FREDDIE very nice.....even with the flat singing.  I hope the piano player had sparkles on his tux shoulders - otherwise he has shiny dandruff.

And Phyllis Carlyle - Jean Ratcliffe's cousin, was there as a manager. Jean finished Frances Farmer's book after Frances died.  Phyllis had all of the cassette tapes that Frances had made telling her life story to her ghostwriter Lois Kibbee during the last months of Frances' life.

Phyllis always claimed she had the cassettes in a box under her bed. Next stop:  EBAY.

TOD:

As a child I loved Jerry Lewis in everything he did.  I need to think about favorites back then.  I still love The Nutty Professor, not sure about the others.

Jrand - "Shiny Dandruff" - That could be the description for someone who thinks their poop [can you say poop on a family site?] doesn't stink, that they think their dandruff shines like diamonds.

Or not.

I was not a big Jerry Lewis fan until I saw King of Comedy.
