CHUSHINGURA arrived via Netflix...but by gosh this movie is almost 4 hours long! What the...?

Hmmm...well it does have almost every 1960s Toho contract actor and actress in it...I hope it is worth while.

As soon as the editor left (around five), the phone rang and I got two little additional notes - very simple - one involving a graphic and one involving a shot deletion.  I told her we'd do them first thing Wednesday morning, and then online the piecr directly after.  She seemed jiggy with it.

And now, I shall be on my way to the theater for a little brush-up rehearsal and then this evening's performance.  Pray for Rosemary's Baby.

Riches are coming my way. It's a change from Africa!

Greetings from British Isles.

My name is Michael Mann. I am the Head, Audit Committee of a reputable and well known Financial Trust here in Isle of Man.  I am contacting you in a non-official
capacity and therefore require your utmost confidentiality.

The purpose of my writing to you is because I am searching for a foreign business partner who is in a position to assist me with an urgent business
proposal, as time is not  on my side. A partner, who understands what confidentiality means and who has the necessary  facilities  required in
embarking on this important venture.

We had a  client who deposited a huge sum of money with one of our branches in Europe, who later died in a fatal car accident on November 12,
2001. The client died intestate and nominated no successor in title over the investments made with our bank. Since the death of this client, I personally
have watched with keen interest to see the next of kin but all has proved abortive as no one has come to claim his funds of ?11,700,000.00 (Eleven
Million, Seven Hundred Thousand Euros) deposited with our bank in 2000. This client shares the same surname with you. It is for this reason that I am
contacting you.

In accordance with the European Trust and Federal Laws, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, his investments with our bank shall revert to ownership
of the government of the country of the said investments if nobody applies as the next of kin to claim the investments.

Since you share the same surname with this client,  I want to present you to stand in as the next of kin so that you and I can benefit from this
investment equally (i.e. 50% for you and 50% for me). I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect us from any
breach of the law, as I will use my position to secure approvals and guarantee the successful execution of this transaction.

If this proposal is acceptable to you, kindly indicate your full names, your private telephone, fax numbers and location where the money will be
remitted. I will instruct you on the next step to take.

I look forward to your earliest response.

With warm greetings,

Michael C. Mann

A beautiful sixty degree day in Tacoma Land.

DVD:  

NATIONAL TREASURE
SABATOUR

CD:

The Supremes / The Temptations -- TCB; The TV Soundtrack (what a great name for an album)

I watched a great little movie the other night from Netflix -- ALL OVER THE GUY, a very sweet, semi-gay (okay, very gay) comedy.  Directed by Julie Davis, and staring Richard Ruccolo, Doris Roberts, Andrea Martin, and Dan Bucatinsky.  I really liked this movie.

If Wishes were horses...
Our spirits would soar

If Wishes were horses...
Our soul would know free

If wishes were horses
Or strength would be unwavering

If wishes were horses...
Loyalty of the heart would reign

If wishes were horses...
Wild dreams would transpire...
       

Very pretty-thank you.

Last night we watched CAPTURING THE FRIEDMAN’S.  This documentary of the family is just as gripping, frustrating and sad as any good crime show.  I kept waiting for the team from IN JUSTICE to sort out the truth for us.  

Vixmom and other New Yorkers do you remember this case and the family?

Ben, at the end of the film it’s mentioned that David Friedman is the number one clown in New York.  Does Anthony know him?

Good Evening!

Greetings from New York City!

*Uptown/West Harlem to be more precise.  ;)

I left Fairfax, VA, at 3:00, and I pulled up to my apartment at 8:00.  Not too bad considering I left right at the top of rush hour on a Friday.  Strangely enough, the traffic on the Beltway in VA and MD was next to nothing - even the traffic reporters on the radio were surprised at how light the rush hour was.  However, once I hit the Baltimore Beltway - both at the "bottom" and the "top" - there were a couple of delays, and a couple of accidents.  But still, the trip normally takes just over 4 hours from DC - 248 miles door to door - and I made it in 5 - and that included a stop for gas.

OH!  And I really did pull up right to my apartment - there was a space right out front!  I double and triple-checked just to make sure I wasn't in a tow zone - there's a fire hydrant out front too - and, sure enough, I was not.  :)

I got the car unloaded, and then I headed down the block to the Pathmark to stock up one some groceries for the week.  And then over to Popeye's for late-late lunch, late dinner.  Love that chicken!

;)

And now, I'm resting a bit, watching the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympics, and in a little bit I shall put the rest of my stuff away, take a shower, and get some sleep.

At least that's the plan for now.

:)

Jane, David Friedman (AKA Silly Billy I believe) is/was a Manhattan clown and Anthony only worked on Long Island. Even though the Friedmans live on Long Island Anthony never crossed paths with David Friedman.

I doubt that Michael Mann exists DR Jane.
Of course he may be a good friend of Jane Ashland or Jeff Portland.
