An Oscar nominee for her role in 'Tootsie,' she was also a favorite guest of David Letterman and Johnny Carson and a three-time host of 'Saturday Night Live.'”

Teri Garr and I shared a December 11 birthday - she was 6 years older.

I remember her appearances on the NBC Letterman show. Those two had some chemistry.

Chemistry?

singdaw · « **Reply #124 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:14:52 PM »

Yeah, chemistry.

It's almost Halloween.

singdaw · « **Reply #126 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:15:28 PM »

There is no candy in the house.

singdaw · « **Reply #127 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:15:40 PM »

And that's probably a good thing.

Did not hear Kamala's speech in D.C., but hearing good things about it.

DR Ginny, I am so sorry to hear about Rebecca. The entire situation makes this sound like a tough one indeed. Condolences for all and vibes of comfort for yourself.

singdaw · « **Reply #131 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:36:33 PM »

Good night, friends.

singdaw · « **Reply #132 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:36:39 PM »

And others.

John G. · « **Reply #133 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:37:32 PM »

My condolences, Ginny.

It's been another exhausting day. People thought rain was coming, so the lines weren't long. Then it didn't rain, so a steady stream picked up. But we ended up with three people less than yesterday, only 1,922.

I started watching The Zone of Interest. It captures the true boredom of the lives of these horrible people who happen to be living next to a concentration camp. Sandra Huller is amazing as the prototypical hausfrau vacuuming floors and then trying on a mink coat taken from one of the Jews brought to the camp. Everything is so banal.

John G. · « **Reply #136 on:** October 29, 2024, 07:59:26 PM »

Couldn't take more than 30 minutes of it.

John G. · « **Reply #137 on:** October 29, 2024, 08:21:43 PM »

I think I am going to call it a night.

John G. · « **Reply #138 on:** October 29, 2024, 08:21:53 PM »

Good night, all.

Sorry about steering you wrong, DR ChasSmith.

It's okay, DR singdaw. Think nothing of it. I know you'll find a way to make it up to me... hell, even if it takes years. Right? Am I right?

I voted today, after figuring out all 12 races and 12 propositions. The top of the ballot didn't need any figuring out, but down ballot we have many races with multiple good candidates, and many of the propositions have decent arguments on either side.

TOD: I'm thinking of The Fugitive and Three Days of the Condor, in part because I've seen those two most recently. Many other fine choices of course. I guess I shouldn't leave out the first Indiana Jones movie.

Hello, everyone.

Jeanne · « **Reply #143 on:** October 29, 2024, 09:08:58 PM »

So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend, DR Ginny. These things are rough. But you had many years of a fine friendship, which is to be valued.

Vibes of comfort.

Jeanne · « **Reply #144 on:** October 29, 2024, 09:10:19 PM »

Mega healing vibes to DR Iris. And vibes of patience as you go through this.

Jeanne · « **Reply #145 on:** October 29, 2024, 09:13:28 PM »

I always try to have something to look forward to. In these times of election anxiety two things come to mind in 2025:

The adaptation of The Thursday Murder Club is scheduled to air.

The next Paddington Bear movie.

Ron, I think I would have less patience than you when it comes to maga relatives. I think sometimes you just have to walk away.

Not very sporting.
