Today would have been my dad’s 96th birthday.


Vibes of comfort to you, John.

I love this idea of teaching a cat to play a piano.

Just watched a horrifying episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents in which a man knows he has a poisonous snake in his bed. I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.

Sounds even scarier than snakes on a plane!

After Donald Sutherland died last week, I went to the library’s website to see what films of his they had. One was Hamlet at Elsinore, a Tv film of the play from 1964 with Christopher  Plummer as Hamlet and Sutherland in a supporting role. Filmed at the actual castle. Should be fun.

I'm up, I'm up - maybe five hours of sleep - been up since eight-thirty dealing with one thing after another.

Ron, I have a cousin who disappeared after her mother’s funeral. Since I haven’t seen the other cousins in a number of years, I might be a part of that list.

Fran (the mysteriously absent cousin) is a friend on Facebook although she has never communicated back with me to anything I have posted to her.  I know she is alive and well.   Several of us tried calling and messaging her about the reunion, but to no avail.  She did not reply, not even to voice mails.

Even when her mom and dad (my Uncle Andy and Aunt Louise) were living, she did not communicate with anyone else in her dad's family.

Jrand, do the rules for the actors allow for a video to be made, for you to help promote the play?

Monday afternoon greetings!  We did, indeed, venture out today to do some errands and eat lunch in a restaurant.  Eighty degrees is tolerable if the humidity is low, which it is today.

The morning felt great, then the day turned so-so when I ran my errands later. By then it was feeling just a little too warm again out there in the world, even though it was only 75. And then BJ's air pump for the tires was barely working, and I felt taken to the cleaners by what the cleaners was charging for a suit and three shirts. Then someone asked for an emergency audition track, and I somehow got it just decent enough in one take to send it off, so that's a relief. I still have to take the trash down to the road, and I'll be damned if it hasn't started sprinkling, but it actually makes the air smell even nicer so what am I, complaining? It'll be warmer again over the next two days, so let's enjoy the rest of this one. And isn't it just about cocktail hour?

Starting Hamlet. Robert Shaw is Claudius. Michael Caine is there also, possibly as Horatio.

DR Ron - glad you enjoyed your reunion. It was fun reading about it.

And it sounds like it turned out better than this one:
