A Short Walk Through a Wide World is anything but short. I’m hoping the last hour redeems the time invested.

The Tennessee legislature has voted to allow teachers to carry guns on school campuses. I'm sure that's going to end well.       >:(

Japanese lunch special was excellent - three pieces of California roll, a few pieces of tempura, and some teriyaki chicken, a little rice and some soup and salad that I didn't eat.

Nice choice for the music to substitute for the original Beethoven in that comic!

It’s a mix of flour, brown sugar, egg, salt snd baking powder. Sprinkled with almond slivers and crowned with a melted stick of butter.

In Suspicion, Joan Fontaine faints. Her dress is wonderful, with the skirt billowing out, as she falls to the floor. It’s remarkably like the death of the double agent in Topaz.

Cary Grant is wonderfully creepy in Suspicion. I think psychologists would have a field day analyzing his behavior.

I think there are so many clues pointing to Grant being BAD instead of merely being a bad boy that the ending actually works.
