Today I must go up to one of the theeders to see if I can get their keyboard working. It's a Kurzweil that, sadly, didn't turn out to be one of their best designs, and it isn't booting up. All I can do is try reinstalling the OS, and if it won't read the USB thumb drive, it'll have to wait for a tech.

Last night I watched, for my first time, John Ford's THE FUGITIVE (1947) with Henry Fonda and a few other notables. It was another in my ever-popular series, Pull All the Old Unseen Warner Archive DVDs off the Shelf and Give Them a Spin. I'd always been aware of the title, but for all I knew it was some run-of-the-mill prison film or noir or you-name-it. Not so, of course, and while I'll probably never return to it, I was interested enough in it to sit through it once. It was obvious that I'd never seen it, not even at any of the myriad revival house or film festival showings all those years in L.A.

First is a funeral mass for Rosemary Kowalski, who died last week at 100. She was a caterer who made a huge impact back in 1968 when the World’s Fair was here. She stayed active up to the end. Sweet woman.

Then, it’s Doc Watkins’s big band Christmas show, which includes his playing all of the music in A Charlie Brown Christmas.
