Great that your final performance went well, George.

Thanks, Freddie!

I think no mail and no banking today.

Yup.  I got paid yesterday for An Inspector Calls, but I can't deposit the check until tomorrow. :P

I watched "Foul Play" last night.

It's very entertaining, has good music, Barry Manilow singing a coupe of songs, a bit of The Mikado is in the mix and there is Goldie Hawn and Chevy (he looks like Bruce Kimmel) Chase.

Goldie is SO YOUNG in this film.  I just remember seeing it when it was released in 1978.  When I look in a mirror, I still see myself as I was then although photographs inform me those days are LONG GONE.

While the movie is fun, it's also a bit convoluted, plot- and character-wise.  And let me not leave out Dudley Moore in a wonderfully comic performance, nor omit Billy Barty as the dwarf Bible salesman who had one of the worst "accidents" on screen I have ever witnessed.   And then there is Cooper Huckabee, rube from the sticks in the city (San Francisco) who gets treated to a "joy ride" that is a lot of fun.

I haven't seen that movie in years!  I remember that I really liked it.

We are waiting for the plumber to arrive and install a new garbage disposal.  The current one is why we had a leak under our sink.

Oh, no! :o

Fortunately I discovered the leak the day before we left on our trip instead of before our morning flight.

Whew!

The plumber installed the new garbage disposal but couldn't do the work we needed done in our bathroom.  He will be returning.

Actually, I deliberately (but not easily) saved half of it for later.

Good for you.  Be sure to take your time and heat it in the oven so it still tastes delicious :)

Yup!  No microwave rehearing for this one!

Like DR RON PULLLIAM I also watched Foul Play last night on TCM because I remembered how much I enjoyed it originally.

I liked it last night....mostly because of Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase.....although now I think MR BK could have certainly enhanced that performance.

I realized that I need a couple of books to read so I ordered Gay Hollywood by David Ehrenstein and The Gay History of Washington DC......

I guess it's a theme.  But snow storms are coming and reading material is essential.
