But I guess "bologna" isn't "food"?

How right you are, until you get to mortadella, which is divine.

Listening to a novel called The Empusium, which is like an answer to The Magic Mountain. Like Thomas Mann's novel, this one holds my attention at times and then loses it. It's due back shortly, so I have to finish it.

It was written by Olga Tokarczuk, who, like Mann, won the Nobel. Both take place in a mountaintop sanitarium for tuberculosis patients. The new novel has a little creepy edge to it, making it a good choice for Halloween season.

TOD -

favorite adaptations -
THE WIZARD OF OZ
MARY POPPINS
CABARET


Not sure on which non-adaptations are favorites, though.  Does YELLOW SUBMARINE count as a non-adaptation, or is that an adaptation of a record album?

Not sure why I thought of that, except that DR John G. is reporting to the front lines.

I think the other day BK asked what we like to listen to when we need a boost.

My answer is most definitely BK's song "Everything Is Gonna Be All Right" from Welcome to My World.

Have we mentioned this MUSIC MAN-related news from page 6 of the New York Post?

https://pagesix.com/2024/10/23/celebrity-news/sutton-foster-files-for-divorce-amid-hugh-jackman-rumors/

"...Sutton Foster has filed for divorce from “Ocean’s Eleven” screenwriter Ted Griffin, Page Six has learned — amid buzz she is moving on with her former “The Music Man” co-star Hugh Jackman."

BK, did you watch The Music Man on disc or streaming somewhere? I'm assuming it still looks the same as it has all these years on Blu-ray?
