Good morning, all!
-
I had a very nice - and very rare - night of sleep. The cats behaved, but I think part of the reason was the arrival of a new Amazon carton yesterday, and their desire to snuggle inside it. Poor Stella, because her coat is a longer and heavier fur, feels the heat worse thamn Annabelle or Thatch, so I'm sure she was delighted to curl up in the carton next to the AC.

Good morning, all..

Odd night of sleep. Must get up early today. It's travel day.

This morning, I have my second and final Zoom with the New York Independent Assessor Program. Unlike Tuesday's 2.5 hour interview, this will only be one hour.

DR John G, I had never heard of Claudia Gray before your post. Around 1998, there was a rush of Jane Austen mysteries. I tried a couple, including P.D. James' Death Comes to Pemberly. I found none of the authors caught Austen's tone as an author and, outside of naming the charactersElizabeth, Darcy, Miss Lucas, or whomever, they could have been named Nick, Nora, Mike Hammer, Poirot, etc.
How dio you feel Miss Gray does?
-
There was a wonderful series of Victorian mysteries that ran downhill as the author continued writing them. I finally gave up when I felt her sense of history and small things, like the time it would take in getting around London in a horse and carriage, were completely wacko.
-
Last night, because of DR John G, for the first time since summer 1972, I watched Alfred Hitchcock's wonderful Frenzy. As soon as the credits began, I was back in a Pittsburgh movie theatre in late June, 1972, where I saw the film with my friend George Brashears. I saw it again several months later in Middletown, when I moved back to my parents' home to hide out and lick my wounds after a disastrous teaching experience at a Pennsylvania college. I remembered bits of the film 50 years later, like the wonderfully comic scenes with Alec McCowen and Vivien Merchant, but I'd forgotten how unsettling the rape-murder of Barbara Leigh-Hunt was. After so many years of watching BBC programs, I was surprised to see Jean Marsh, Billie Whitelaw, and Bernard Cribbins.
DR John G, did you recognize Hyacinth Bucket's (pronounced Bouquet's) husband Richard?
I was also gobsmacked to see the screenplay was by Anthony Shaffer. The things you learn!
-
BK, thanks for the Robert Williams report. What a disgusting example of human behavior. I've lost several eBay items through one of two things: theft in the building and incompetent US postal deliveries to the wrong address, but I've never blamed the seller or fought for Paypal reimbursement since neither was to blame. The big problem is the US Postal Service does shit to locate misdirected things, and all opne can do is eat the cost of the purchase.
-
I think Robert Williams’ behavior was abysmal.
-
I must get rolling as I must fill my gas tank, drive to Cutchogue and conduct a closing and perhaps , if time permits, make a side trip to Flanders to see The Big Duck

It’s 7/11

It was my understanding that Belgium's primary languages are Dutch (two Flemish branches), French and German.
Isn't Bruges the French name?

Good morning, ye merry folke!
I slept relatively well until some sneezing fits awakened me around 4:30i-sh. After that came several more in 30-minute intervals.
Bottom line: I am in the throes of a minor (one hopes) head cold.
How? Well, I did go out amongst the masses yesterday for the haircut, the produce and for lunch.
Sigh.

The Robert Williams thing is beyond belief. I hope the guy somehow stumbles onto this episode being written about.
BK: That having been said, I certainly don't suggest posting his location or any other personal info, but --
Did you check FB or anywhere else for a profile or something that would give a clue as to who he his, what he does, something about his friends, his interests, or, most important, his character? His first and last names are both common ones, so good luck with that. Just wondered.

My friend and I arrived in L.A. on June 10, 1972, and already being Hitchcock devotees, we were very excited to see that his latest, FRENZY, would be opening at the Cinerama Dome. So that was my first time ever in the Dome.
I think IMDb says it opened on the 21st, but I'll have to check newspapers.com because I have it in a sort of diary that I kept for a short period of time back then that we saw it on the 28th. I was positive we were there on its opening night. I know damned well we intended to. Hmm...
We were thrilled with it then, and saw it in a few other theaters as it made its way around town (I even remember going to Pasadena to see it once later on, which seems bizarre) -- but when I watched it a few years ago after a long absence, I was able to appreciate so much of it even more.

English has become very due to video games ;D
I don't know about the French name for Bruges.

I'm up, I'm up - six and a half hours but good sleep thanks to Melatonin. I got up at seven with ABS (Active Brain Syndrome) so I've just been following a couple of auctions, one of which had tons of mysteries from the Otto Penzler collection - he owned the Mysterious Bookshop in NYC and LA and had the biggest mystery collection in the world. Tons of signed books and each lot consisted of quite a few books, many inscribed to him. I have a lot of what he was selling, purchased at the LA branch of his shop, in the garage.
-
What he wasn't selling, at least not with THIS auction house, was anything really rare. I'm sure those he'll either keep or give to a major auction house - you know, the Agatha Christie, Chandler, Woolrich, Ross McDonald - the big boys and girls of the genre.
-
I was hoping to find Robert Williams on one of the Broadway Facebook groups, but no luck there. Obviously, I wouldn't post his personal information - that's doxxing and even though it's done every day, I would never do that to anyone.
-
The book auction I'm following is done soon and then at eleven there's another book auction I'll probably follow along - I love when stuff I have is auctioned for nice dough. I think the bidders on the Penzler stuff were all dealers and we'll be seeing all that stuff show up on eBay and the ABE at inflated prices.
-
In five lots there are some nice signed Stephen King things coming up - I'm sure they'll all go for big dough - but then again, you never know.
-
Happy birthday, Vixmom’s Mom!

How dio you feel Miss Gray does?
I like her. I don’t find anachronisms, like I do in too many historical novels these days. I have fun with characters overlapping from Austen’s novels.
-
I have never watched Hyacinth Bucket, so I don’t know her husband. A black hole on my part.

I got JB off to the Tweet Suites. I mopped the kitchen floor and vacuumed. I finished packing. I showered. My ride to the airport should be here in 5.

I wonder what I have forgotten.

Shelley Duvall has died. Loved her 3 Women and so many Altman movies as well as The Shining. Loved her take on fairy tales and fables.

Hyacinth could be my mother's sister Jean.
-
Shelley Duvall has died. Loved her 3 Women and do many Altman movies as well as The Shining. Loved her take on fairy tales and fables.
Ditto to all that!

Duvall apparently lived up the road from San Antonio in Blanco, the first city to the Northwest of here.

Shelley Duvall, Robert Altman Protege and Tormented Wife in ‘The Shining,’ Dies at 75 (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/shelley-duvall-dead-shining-actress-1235946118/)
The versatile actress, also memorable in 'McCabe & Mrs. Miller,' 'Nashville,' 'Popeye' and '3 Women,' produced TV series for kids as well.

The patented HHW vibes did their thing.
The audience was a bit puzzled by our LL - but she didn't realize it.....if it is possible for an entire audience to be nonplussed - it happened tonight in a barn in the middle of a field in Putnam County Indiana.

We had a lovely dinner at the Cheesecake Factory
-
I had made a reservation and requested a specific area of the restaurant which they honored
-
The waitress couldn’t have been sweeter or more attentive
-
The food was delicious
-
I had the steak Diane and chicken Madeira combo which came with n mashed taters
-
Mom had the same
-
We both ate all our steak , ate half our mashed and after tasting the chicken boxed it for tomorrow’s lunch
-
Because it was a birthday and there must be room for cheesecake!
-
Mom had the traditional original, I had the Dulce de leche cheescake
-
Vixdad had the fish and chips all up and had no room for dessert
-
Great news, JRand.

There are three episodes on this tape, and the guest stars are (in order of appearance on the tape): Rue McClanahan, Howard Rollins, Peter Noone (not listed on the back of the box, though), and Betty Buckley in a one-hour special Christmas episode!
