Wow, I'm closing in on a rather large new plateau.

That IS a pretty major posting plateau!

Okay, everyone knows Xanadu is crappy, but to have a tap routine when you can plainly see they don’t have taps on their shoes is beyond ridiculous.

A full.day of conferencing, and I'm exhausted.

Good night, friends.

And others.

I survived Xanadu and the half-hour documentary on it, which may be worse than the movie.

John G. · « **Reply #160 on:** July 22, 2024, 08:31:06 PM »

Good night, all.

That's a nice house rule. It can keep the Scrabble game tension-free if no one's challenging anyone!

Our family was never like that. Cut-throat Scrabble only.

The Big Storm we were warned about hit the other side of town. We got no rain.

I think it has been close to a month since we've had rain at my house.

~~~Rain Vibes for Laura and Her Side Of Town!!~~~

The energy in the election I was hoping for has begun

And the racism and misogyny are only just surfacing.

Yup.

And Harris's delivery in her speech about knowing Trump's type was great.

I heard that part...she was good!

The second half of Full Metal Jacket isn’t as good as the first.

There was a joke decades back about the movie they were going to make about Vice President Dan Quayle's war experience - it`s called ”Full Dinner Jacket.”

And now s movie I have waited decades to see. Maybe I should wait more … Xanadu.

I like that movie...mostly because of the music. I love the songs!

I saw the stage musical on YouTube.

The musical is a spoof, but not quite a parody, of the movie. They try to make the songs funny, but they're not funny songs. They're very well written songs from the late 1970s/early 1980s.

Potential VP candidate Gov. Beshear of Kentucky tried out a jab at JD Vance on CNN: JD Vance has no conviction. Lucky for him, his running mate has 34.

That's a good one!

For the movie, I choose to suspend disbelief.

I've been watching weird YouTube videos, but have to stop that nonsense.

No posts in an hour and George probably won't show up until one minute to midnight, his "jam."

bk · « **Reply #176 on:** July 22, 2024, 11:10:13 PM »

I have to buy some jam and English muffins. I always forget what a nice low-cal snack that makes in the evening hours.

bk · « **Reply #177 on:** July 22, 2024, 11:10:41 PM »

Perhaps I'll do that very thing tomorrow.

Perhaps.

I just might.
