It is 43 degrees and Petey the PT Cruiser started right up.

I may still get him a new battery this fall.

DR FREDDIE yes....this is June Graham who was standing in for Betty Furness who was on vacation that week.

A stage hand had kicked the plug out of the outlet backstage and without current the automatic door wouldn't function. The live director certainly had to know what he was doing to tell the cameras what to do and when to cut to which one.   Live theeder - theeder in front of MILLIONS of people.

June kept it going.....and I love her second time saying: "It opens automatically!"


Impressive poise in the face of adversity.

That delivery of "It opens automatically!" deserves to be a classic!

Thanks for linking that, Jrand!

It's the anniversary of Bobby Knight throwing a chair across the basketball floor.

The stupid jerk.....he stayed long after his welcome....and certainly long after his talent was warranted.

Can you tell I have no respect for Mr Bobby Knight and his coaching abilities?

He could be a brother of our current president with matching ego and ability.

DElusional in all areas.

Hello, everyone! I finished the laundry just before noon; it sits here, waiting to be folded and put away. I had a couple of email to take care of, and before I knew it, it was 1:30. I lay down with Stella and fell asleep. When I woke, it was 2:28, and time for their dinner and mine. I couldn't decide what I wanted and finally decided to fry a couple of eggs and use up several English muffins before they dried out. It was all very tasty.

Last night I dreamed an entire novel - beginning middle and end.....although it obviously needs filling out.

I think I will sketch it out today although I have no idea what I would do with it.  Perhaps after I go to the big theeder in the sky, someone will find it and I will become posthumously infamous!

DR Jrand74, using that dream, write a novel based on it.  In 2018, when I started writing silly pieces aboput Annabelle and Thatch on Facebook, I never imagined I'd be published.

A little Wilder for the afternoon: Love in the Afternoon. Audrey Hepburn looks way too young for Gary Cooper, but they are sweet together.

BK, DR vixmom and I saw Desperate Measures at the York and loved it. When it transferrewd off-Broadway, she and I saw it again with DR ChasSmith, DR Ginny, and Ginny's husband Richard. The original production was a hopot, so I hope this production you are seeing is good.


BK, regarding the creators of DESPERATE MEASURES, if you're not familiar with David Friedman's name, you probably have heard some of his songs.


This song by David Friedman, even though it's called "My Simple Christmas Wish," has a hilarious sentiment that works all year long. :)

I think Billy Wilder was an indiscriminate soda snob. One Two Three featured James Cagney as a Coca-Cola official. In Love in the Afternoon, Gary Cooper works for Pepsi. Soda was a sign of American capitalism, I guess.

I've only seen this once and never wanted to visit it again.  I thought Hepburn was wonderful but didn't like Cooper's charactor or their chemistry.
