Well, you've read the notes, the notes are almost cast, and now it is time for you to post until the almost cast cows come home.

I have no good news. Yesterday the Ohio property tax bill for the first six months of 2022 showed up. We each owe $820.00. I remain convinced that my estate will be paying these damned taxes after I am dead until the property ends up in the hands of the banks.

Good morning, friends.

Last night I had a dream about Jerome Robbins's Broadway, for some strange reason.

It is listed in iTunes as "Jerome Robbins' Broadway." I used to do that, but I think Robbins's is actually (more) correct.

I am happy to report that no lugubrious pronouncements will be made by me today. It's a beautiful, if chilly, day, and I got a great night's sleep. Feeling good!

Actually, the apostrophe after the "s" is grammatically sufficient to indicate the possessive, but adding the "s" is also correct.

Casting video vibes for MR BK!

Selling the property mega vibes for DR ELMORE.

That's a great song!!

Well.....I think DR CHAS SMITH and MR BK have already written about NIGHTMARE ALLEY class of '22, but I watched it last night and....

I liked it quite a bit. First of all it looked great - of course much of the production design was probably computer generated, but it kind of fit the story.

I though all of the lead and supporting actors did a nice job. Mr. Bradley Cooper is NOT Tyrone Power, but he seems to understand the part. Toni Collette, Cate Blanchett, and even Rooney Mara were also good.

The story moved along and I liked it. The final comedown seems forced, but then again Stanton isn't the smartest guy in the world so he might go ahead and try the final stunt.....

And of course the final few moments are chilling. All in all I would recommend it to anyone who might be interested. I do not know if the Academy will take it into consideration - but I hope we get a few nominations....but if not well as Cate says: "I'll live."

DR JANE thanks. I kind of wish the 2017 version had followed the book then......it's the only thing I didn't like about it.

Amazon Fresh has delivered. All three cats have stopped dancing to fight over five empty cartons.

I will have to share that with some of the bank folks I work with.

Listening to the first symphony of Florence Price, a composer I was unfamiliar with. It's lush and beautiful. Superstar conductor Yannick Nezet-Seguin and the Philadephia Orchestra. Symphony No. 3 is also on this disc. But later.

Off to brunch.

DR George are the masks that were dropped off to you the free ones from the government or masks your sister or her boyfriend purchased?

Jane · « **Reply #29 on:** February 06, 2022, 09:27:42 AM »

We attempted to use the free 3M masks we got at the pharmacy. They have extra cushioning at the top of the mask that goes across the nose which is exceptionally comfortable. After that, neither of us can wear the mask. The rubber straps are hard for me to strap over my head due to my shoulder, and to my hair. The straps get tangled in my hair and the bows and usually wear. For Keith, the mask is too small and tight.
