The Silent Move Series for which I ushered today featured two Harold Lloyd movies: Speedy and High and Dizzy. Here's the description from the Washington Center's website:QuoteTwo shorts from “The King of Daredevil Comedy” Harold Lloyd. Speedy (1928) sends Lloyd on a tour of New York City, featuring glimpses of Yankee Stadium, Coney Island, and Babe Ruth as himself. High and Dizzy (1920) finds our man getting tipsy on a then-illegal stockpile of liquor before making a daring rescue at dizzying heights. Thrilling special effects made this an audience favorite! © 2021 Harold Lloyd Entertainment, Inc.World-class theater organist Dennis James brings the silent era to life on our historic 1924 treasure: The Mighty Andy Crow Wurlitzer Organ. Experience the silver screen as it was meant to be seen! Our Silent Movie Series is a signature event at the Washington Center. We welcome people of all ages to step back in time and enjoy the sound and nostalgia.

Criterion has a number of Harold Lloyd movies in their lineup. Speedy's one of them.
I saw this on FB today:Pro tips for gasoline hoarders:Once you've filled your bathtub with gas, you can camouflage the smell by putting scented candles around the edge of the tub.
I got on I-275 at 6:45 am this morning, and pulled into my driveway at 6:00 pm. I don’t think my stops added up to more than 45 minutes this time. It was a grueling push the whole way, and this DR is dead tired but happy to be back. I shall ketchup aplenty in the morn’.
But someone brought one of those cakes that are actually a quarter of four different cakes on a plate. We tried small bites of the three non-chocolate cakes and they were dreadful. The best wanted to be a lemon cake but it tasted more like it had been made with Lemon Joy. Another one was hard to describe. Acrid fake vanilla? Fake mint? Fake, yes. But too fake to figure out what. The third was just bland.
It's available on Blu-ray from Criterion (as well as Amazon), so I think I'll get it. I really did like it!
The episode of Password with Stephen Sondheim and Lee Remick (and Phyllis Newman and Peter Lawford and others) has been posted on YouTube!

I see you haven’t tried to deny the vampire story!
