Maybe we should rename her ST. JEANNE.

Season 2 Episode 29 of ROUTE 66 had about half of its run time filmed at Ocean Park in Santa Monica....as the credits say.

And Martin Milner is in the shower.....from the shoulders up. He has freckles back there, too.

Happy Sunday! On the new episode of the Broadway Radio Show, I am joined by award-winning performer Ari Axelrod to chat about his new album coming out this Friday called A Place For Us: A Celebration of Jewish Broadway. It's an entertaining and insightful conversation....check it out!

I love the words AND the music for this song by John Bucchino.

In a Restaurant By the Sea

In a restaurant by the sea
On a liquid afternoon
For a moment eyes collide
And the world's periphery

Now your pupils learn the sun
To reflect it brighter back
In a moment I'll come to
And retrieve a sip of wine
But for now, I drink you in

Inches separate our hands
When I move to close the gap
You won't clutch or draw away
As too many have before

For a moment eyes collide
And reality's the dream
With the wine wet on your lips
And a tear moist in my eye

In a restaurant by a sea
On a liquid afternoon
For a moment...

How many times has he tried this “restaurant by the sea” move?

If anyone else has been interested in the question of whether the actress Beulah Bondi is related to the incoming Attorney General Pam Bondi:

It looks like she might not be, since Beulah Bondi's real name is Beulah Bondy.

Well, fellow HHW'ers.

DR JEANNE's sound advice worked like a charm. As I said, I dipped the standing water from both sinks.

I poured a spaghetti cooker full of boiling water in the sink with the main drain. And waited....but not even 5 minutes. And the drain was working like crazy.

Just for insurance, I did it twice more.

DR JEANNE saved me probably $200 or more! I highly recommend the technique to anyone who has a similar problem.

Fantastic.

DR Rodzinski, your morning sounded like fun while the story of your evening was very moving.

Yes most interesting posts from DR RODZINSKI.

I also liked your interpretation of the poem posted by DR singdaw - who has a working drain now as do I.

I'm afraid all that terrible food yesterday, one thing after another, really gave me severe nausea - no throwing up but just yucky.

I've seen the Pacific Ocean Park episode of Route 66. I've always loved the actress who guest stars - Susan Oliver. I know I wrote about her last time I watched it, which was not all that long ago.

Glad that DR ELMORE is having a good day.

I remember the Lennox Sisters on Lawrence Welk.

While I am enjoying the BBC series, a good musical number would certainly liven things up a bit.

Elmore, I think I have season two of Mercy Street on DVD, if you want to watch it.

That's a very kind and generous offer, but you'd probably never get it back.

The last time I spoke to John Bucchino, he wanted to know how if something he'd written was eligible for the Pulitzer Prize. He's never called back.

Do you think he was hoping you'd nominate him, the way you did successfully for "Sunday in the Park with George"

I paid $1 for it. No great loss. I’ll look for it.
