  We have the option of using a fob or a code.

That's a nice upgrade.  Our building is pretty old.

I can't think of that phrase, "the arrival of the books," without thinking of the equivalent rhythmic phrase in Pacific Overtures: "the arrangement of the screens."

Nice on, Singdaw! ;D

I got a few more pages in The Birds of East Africa, which is a charming novel in the Alexander McCall Smith vein.

They had a sign out saying essentially that if you were fully vaccinated, you weren't required to wear your mask.

At first I was thinking about going to Fred Meyer, which is right next to Costco, just to see what it's like there.

I like to watch Charles Grodin in movies....but I was surprised that I didn't particularly like him on talk shows.

I remember when TCM would have a celebrity program an evening of movies....I think Robert Osborne was still the host at that time.  And Mr. Charles Grodin was the only person I can remember who chose one of his OWN movies to present.  Because it was a "classic" that had been ignored by the public and press and his performance should really be seen.....

One of his autobiographies was titled after what someone famous said to him....."It would be so nice if you weren't here."

I forget the celebrity's name - but now the wish has been granted.


My favorite Charles Grodin film is HEAVEN CAN WAIT.  He and Dyan Cannon (from Tacoma, WA) are just hysterical.
