So, is anyone watching (or planning to watch) Tim Rice's From Here To Eternity?  It's only available for 48 hours, and it was posted about three hours ago (as of this posting).

Vixmom’s favorite, as I recall. I may watch it again.

Is that the version I walked out on?

For this directing thing, I'm now being told that all directors and actors have to be tested four days before shooting.  That may be a deal breaker - I mean, they're saying Dodger Stadium - not only do I NOT want something shoved up my nose, I don't want to drive to Dodger Stadium.

I used to watch The Secret Storm now and then.....but my favorite two soap oprys were Dark Shadows and The Edge of Night......

I am sort of watching The Young and the Restless.....started during my recovery......but I am about to give up on it.....

I watched Dark Shadows without realizing it was a soap opera. And I loved Edge of Night.

TOD:

Dangerous Liaisons
Doctor Sleep
and who knows what else

[John G.]

I have started Dangerous Liaisons, which I haven't seen since opening night. I forgot much of the supporting cast involved, including Mildred Natwick, Keanu Reeves, Uma Thurman and Swoozie Kurtz. The beginning is perfect. When Stephen Frears succeeds, he does so beautifully.

I also got both the flu shot AND the pneumonia shot (one in each arm) and right now, both my arms feel fine.  I have to call to get put on the wait list for the shingles shot, so I'll call Urgent Care because they keep the list. 

Why are you getting vaccinated so young?  The pneumonia shots are recommended at 65 & the shingles at 60.

I think because I'm diabetic, but I don't remember if that's exactly why my doctor recommended it.

I suggest you keep the dates you receive them, especially in case they only last x number of years.

Trust me -- no one will forget this year.

Yes, I will.  My doctor did say that the shingles shot is usually given when one is older, so that I'll have to have it again, but that's 11 years in the future, so I'm not worried about that.

And now, I'm off to my mom's house for some card playing.

Be back later.

The Tv show wasn't scary, I guess since it's was on at 4 pm.  .  But the movie "House of dark Shadows" was really scary!!!

I can understand why neither option is appealing.  Four days only improves your chances of not catching, or having, the virus on shooting day.

  But the second shots will be next year

[Jane]

I have a record of all of our vaccinations.

Did he recommend the original shingles Zoster vaccination for now vs the two shot Shingrix when you are older?  I am guessing he still wants you to get at least one Shingrix.

[John G.]

And my mother doesn't. I still don't know if I had measles or mumps, so I have to quarantine if there's a measles outbreak.

[Laura]

You could just go to the pharmacy and ask for a measles shot. I had to get one when there was a small outbreak at my kids' school and I was a volunteer there.

I suggest getting a titer test to see if you have antibodies.  Even with his vaccination records Bryan had to titer before going to medical school.

Keith nor his mother could remember if he had chicken pox.  When the kids were sick at the same time he had to stay as far away from them as possible.  About a year later Keith's mother mentioned the time he had chicken pox.  I about through a fit

And I never walk out on anything

[Laura]

We got some shots in school. They used an air gun. Does anyone else remember those? I have no idea what was in those shots.

[Jane]

I don't remember an air gun but then I am older than you are.  I did get my polio vaccination in elementary school.

[Jane]

I might also have had my DTP vaccine at school.

I was told by a doctor that that wasn't advisable at my age. Don't remember why.

I know BK produced a really good recording of this show, but any version is always good to me. Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens is getting a zoom production to raise money for Broadway Cares. Starting Dec. 1.

My problem with the show is that all of the young actors looked alike with their same military haircuts. I couldn't tell which story was going on half the time because I couldn't keep them straight.

[John G.]

And I didn't care.

Titer.  You might be protected because the odds are you were vaccinated.  Of course the protection may have worn off.  The CDC recommends a booster when visiting a few locations around the world.

If you had been speaking of Elegies, there, I could understand why.


Ba-dum-bum.

It looks like there is a comprehensive book about Samuel Barber and his music by Barbara Heyman. It's massive - over 600 pages - but costs $53 (or $38 for the Kindle version).
