Finished III and am in the midst of IV, which I've actually never seen all the way through. III is really the problem child of the series in terms of weirdness and Perkins' peculiarity, since he also helmed that one. I like it but it is, for me, not as strong as II, which people seem not to think much of, although I think they did at the time of release as it was a big hit.

Greetings to all.

Fav Hitchcock films in no particular order: ROPE, Psycho, The Birds, Vertigo, North by Northwest, Rear Window.
Anthony Perkins: Psycho, Phaedra, Catch 22. He was in several turkeys.

Daughter and I doing to see a probably bad production of "CABARET" tonight. Sigh, got to support friends who do this stuff. Hope everyone has a pleasant night.

Thank you John for posting my picture

You are welcome, Vixmom. Tell me, how much vino do you consume while creating these masterpieces?

None. I don't drink if I am going to drive. But I enjoy an O'Douls or two

It's a soup kitchen thing the pastor's wife got involved in. They wanted some cornbread muffins to go along with the soup.

Back from a night of dancing.

And now to finish off the last of the C.B. Strike episodes. I eventually came around to most of the casting. Holliday Grainger is really good as Robin.

I used to say that A LADY VANISHES and 39 STEPS were my favorite Hitchcock films, but I don't think that's true today. I don't know which ones I'd place as favorites. I do like LIFEBOAT very much. Perhaps it's time to revisit a number of these great films. Of course, I must give mention to ROPE. I do feel it's a fine film, plus there's sentimental value as my beloved Uncle Eddie (Ed Fitzgerald) was behind the camera.

That's pretty cool about your uncle having worked the film!

Toasting tortillas in the toaster!! These are the small corn tortillas? I love corn tortillas, but would never have thought of doing this.

Not corn. These are regular sized (not huge) flour tortillas. I forget the brand (they're down in my refrigerator and I'm up in my bedroom being lazy), but they're specifically high fiber/low carb tortillas, and they're quite good.

Yes, I think I have seen small flour tortillas, but not often. I didn't pay any attention to whether they were high-fiber. (I like high-fiber foods.)

These aren't too small. I get them at Fred Meyer, but I don't know if they're exclusive to them. They're Tumaro's Premium Low Carb Tortilla Wraps. They also have different flavors. Highly recommended.

This means I'll have to leave my home environs earlier that I would've liked and hie myself to Costco and get a new screw for it. Fortunately, this is a free service that they provide, even if you didn't get your glasses there. And also fortunately, I have my regular glasses, but unfortunately, not having bifocals makes it inconvenient to read my tablet and watch TV at the same time.

Ask for an extra screw for your glasses, just in case. I am going to do that next time I am at the eye doctor's.

Well, I didn't make it to Costco today. I'll go tomorrow. Even if I have to go after the show, there will be enough time before it closes.

One older guy, though, had to look away when [SPOILER ALERT] [redacted] (two male characters) kissed.

He and the woman that was sitting two seats away left at intermission.

Finished with all the Psycho stuff. Now listening to music.
