TCB, I couldn't find your Wednesday question - just looked again. Can you ask again?
Glad you made it home safely, George.
Aha! Waiting till you thought I had gone to bed!
I was hoping to stay awake until George got home safely.
Don't know when I'll leave for Houston. A tornado hit San Angelo near Bonnie's house, so she's dealing with a power outage and downed branches.
Watching a nifty B movie called When Strangers Marry/Betrayed with a very young Robert Mitchum and an evil Dean Jagger. Kim Hunter is not my favorite performer, but she's perky if a little too stupid for her own good. William Castle directs without gimmicks. Great Dimitri Tiomkin score.
I have never listened to an audiobook, but I love to listen to plays.
Harassment and incompetence.
But when was it posted?
We always listen to audio books or radio plays on our drives to Florida
The robot thing is interesting. I've found in a lot of the auditions so far that the reader reads the third person narration without any color.

And there's no earthly reason for that, that I can think of.
DR TCB super vibes you have a covered parking space. I know you really need one. Your realtor should sort this out.
DR Jeanne did you meet Bruce in 1965?
Harassment and incompetence
The muffins and the butter are wonderful!
And today another certified letter from my landlord's attorney arrived with a copy of the eviction petition that was taped to my door last Wednesday. I'm ready to sue for harassment.
But he's paid in full and has received an email acknowledging that, yes?
My third person narration is always as if it was a "character" in the book - in fact, it's frequently almost a mirror of the protagonist - hence, in the Kritzer books, while it's third person, that prose has the same color as Benjamin. Same with the Adriana books and same with GEE. You can't read that flat.

No, it was 1962 or 1963.

I believe the legal requirement is that they must both post the notice and mail a certified copy on the same day. So they are just following the rules.
I have a wonderful neighbor in the apartment below me. She was a Broadway dresser from the age of 18 - dressed Ann Reinking in Goodtime Charlie, Antyhony Quinn in Zorba, and Bebe Neuwith in Chicago - and she's about 10 years or so younger than I. For the last couple of years she's been going through a rough patch of too little work, and about two years ago she took all her savings and took acting classes. I ran into her a couple of months ago and we were lamenting our current state of living, and I asked her why she wasn't auditioning. She said she couldn't afford head shots. I told her when I got the recording money, I'd help her with that, so the other day I gave her a check.
She just brought me a gift of brownies, warm corn muffins, and homemade strawberry butter. She's been baking all day. I asked, get a photographer yet? and she said she was waiting for a return call. Then she ran back to her baking.
So, a bunch of weeds have been whacked.
There are many many more weeds. Waiting their turn.
where is everyone? Has the site been down?
I am suffering from digestive problems again.
I didn’t even know that FUN HOME had been released.
George, do you like the show FUN HOME?
The best narrators are those who understand how to tell a story as much as the writer does.
Recently, I listened to Brid Brennan bring life to Anna Burns' complicated Irish novel, Milkman, in a way that made the book easy to love. It was one of the most powerful books I've listened to in ages.
I agree with Ginny that Jim Dale is a master with the Harry Potter books....

Tom, you promise? And what have you been eating to screw with your stomach?
Somehow (and at some time) I got a crack in the screen of my iPad.
I didn’t drop it, or anything like that, so I don’t know what happened.
