Last night we watched Lily Tomlin and Art Carney in The Late Show, which I had not seen since its first release.  I had remembered it as a comedy, which it most certainly is not, and I remembered that the mystery is begun when Lily Tomlin's character tries to hire Art Carney's PI to retrieve her cat. Carney is quite wonderful, as is Bill Macy as a piece of LA lowlife. Much as I love Tomlin, who's wonderful, her chattery character drove me crazy; I kept wanting to yell STFU! at her.

We just had an absolutely disgusting "press conference" from the pathetic excuse for a president. Whine, whine, whine, poor me, the Democrats are stealing votes. poor me. If it's a legal election I should win, all that crap. Sadly it's all intended to inflame his idiot followers and to lead to his remaining president by force. He's very dangerous and doing his damnedest to provoke and incite.

And I hear the little Trump Bozos are pushing for a civil war.  I wish the stress would just give him a massive stroke.

DR Vixmom, you call the electric company and tell them you are not sure which lines they are in, but there's things caught in the overhead line. They'll come and remove it, I imagine.

That might work, thank you

Getting her here and home would be a problem. She goes to school, so she's exposed to a lot of people. She might be able to ride her bike.

I forgot about school.  So many are still learning from home.

I would think so.  You don't need to mention who you voted for.

I did that about mylar balloons at the church. They were there in less than an hour.

I am impressed with their speed.

I confessed the method we used at a council meeting where the reaction was disapproving amusement and a overall appreciation for the fact that it worked without damaging the ceiling or compromising the ceiling fans

Just finished watching Rick McKay's Broadway: The Golden Age. Amazing collection of people, their memories and the clips shown. Among the extras, the opening night party is as telling in its own way as the movie. I love seeing Peter Jackson talking up Fay Wray the year before his version of King Kong opened.

I found a copy in a clearance bin at a local Half Price Books.

I forgot that I sent McKay some money many, many moons ago (and I'm talking maybe $25). Lo and behold, my name actually appears on a credit list for the movie that he never finished, but which is featured as a work in process in the extras. The list of donors is there in alphabetical order and there it is.

This is ridiculous, and the blame lands at the feet of the Fat Orange Slug who should be executed for treason, human trafficking, rape, crimes against humanity, and God knows how many other offenses.  The National Guard should be called in for the safety of the vote counters to arrest and jail these neanderthals.
