Am at Costco. I’m having the pizza instead of the usual hotdog. I am not impressed. It’s kinda blah, even with chile flakes.

That's too bad. $:-\$ I've always liked their pizza.

Maybe it’s the way they make it here.

Great picture DR MICHAELG......thanks for sharing.

I also enjoyed reading about DR GEORGE's evening.....I got exhausted just thinking about it.

It is now 72 degrees....I shall go sit on the front porch for awhile when the news comes on.

Lovely. It is wet and chilly here. I hope the rain stops before I walk to the clubhouse for my book group discussion.

I was ok with Elvis but not a huge fan like my sister was, until Blue Hawaii. As much as I liked the movie I was bothered by the lyrics to Almost Always True.

I also liked his little co-star Donna Butterworth.

Finished I Confess. Deeply Catholic movie. I can understand why it’s not universally acclaimed, but it really is one of Hitchcock’s better movies, despite some excess Anne Baxter histrionics.

The Cahiers du Cinema writers way back when thought it was his best. I won’t go that far.

I have Priscilla to watch. But I will wait.

John G, you're only 22 posts away from 88888 posts! I suspect that could be a sign of good luck.

Freddie · « **Reply #102 on:** February 26, 2024, 02:59:26 PM »

Or maybe it's 21 posts away from 88888 posts that's good luck?

Either way, it bodes well.

It says on google: "The spiritual meaning of angel number 88888 is about tapping into your inner peace and embracing the constant flow of prosperity in your life."

DR FREDDIE you posted something erudite and funny - but now I can't remember what it was.

Kanopy, the library’s streaming service, now has the first half of the new French version of The Three Musketeers. I have so many other library movies to watch first.

I didn't know about a new film of the Musketeers, so I went to IMDB to look it up. The photos look great, the D'Artagnan very handsome and Milady de Winter quite beautiful, but the posted review sounds is if Dumas' plot wasn't enough for the screenwriters so they added more plots of their own devising. So, I went to check out the second film, and the synopsis doesn't match the second half of Dumas' wonderful novel. I'll stick with Richard Lester's two films.

Sizzler was having a big door dash sale so I ordered the steak and fried shrimp combo and some clam chowder. I can tell you that the steak was as tough as shoe leather and about as tasty. Fried shrimp were okay. Baked potato - can't ruin that. I'm nauseous now.

Thanks for sharing this. What do you think of the movies that preceded it, Rope and Under Capricorn? I have a fondness for these Transatlantic Pictures outings, both because of the family history connection and the interesting use of very long takes.

John G. · « **Reply #112 on:** February 26, 2024, 05:16:53 PM »

I hated Under Capricorn the first time I saw it. I liked it much more the second time, but it is flawed by a mediocre script.

Love Rope for the exercise it is. Plus, the best Hitchcock cameo of all.

Shoe leather should be worn, not eaten. We are not Charlie Chaplin.

I have never had their pizza.

You can get just a slice of cheese pizza...no meat...unless you're vegan and not vegetarian.

Well, it's getting close for me to head up to Lakewood for Incorruptible's first rehearsal!

George · « **Reply #117 on:** February 26, 2024, 05:29:04 PM »

Google Maps says that it should take 34 minutes, but I want to leave earlier than that in case there's more traffic around Joint Base Lewis McChord.

George · « **Reply #118 on:** February 26, 2024, 05:30:02 PM »

Rehearsal officially starts at 7:00, but I think I need to be there between 6:30 and 6:45...at least, that's the plan.

George · « **Reply #119 on:** February 26, 2024, 05:30:34 PM »

But, in the meantime, let's head on over to page...
