Page Two (and before 9:30 AM Eastern time - is that a good sign?)

I also like Elmer Bernstein’s Magnificent Seven theme.

Et moi aussi!

To that I would add Max Steiner's "Tara's Theme" from Gone With the Wind, Jerome Moross' The Big Country theme and John Williams' original Star Wars theme.

Not to mention Mancini's Charade.

Tiomkin’s High Noon and Ennio Morricone’s Good, Bad and Ugly.

Birdy is at the Tweet Suites. There were many birds today, all bigger than him. He will ignore them all.

The person that invented the Ferris Wheel never met the person who invented the Merry-Go-Round.

They travelled in different circles.

Vibes that Birdy does well at the Tweet Suites!

Back from the cat place.

Now for a shower and a change of clothes, then out again to get a bunch of music from someone for the little "master class" on Saturday.

Anne Baxter’s grandfather was Frank Lloyd Wright? Why can I not wrap my head around this?

This is interesting.

I went to Costco yesterday in preparation for today's meal (and game of Phase 10) at my mom's, and I had a gift card from my birthday. I used my Costco gift card to buy Subway gift cards!

The gift cards are for you, right? Do they save you money like the See's cards are a savings? Thanks for the reminder that I need to buy more. I don't know why I didn't do this years ago.

LOL, if I had kept reading I would have seen that you answered my questions.

Whew! That wasn't an easy one. $:-\$ A lot of guesses that (fortunately) turned out to not be real words.

Wow, and did you mean unfortunately?

Many of the Bond theme songs up to Nobody Does It Better are favorites. I also liked To Sir With Love which surprisingly was nominated for an Oscar. There are many theme songs that were Oscar nominated and I have a collection of them up to about 10 years ago. A lot of them were good and quite a few were terrible and I wonder how the hell the music branch even nominated them.

I agree about the Bond theme songs. I was not surprised that To Sir With Love was nominated. We worked at the Bruin Theater when it played there and never tired of watching the movie or listening to the song.

I'm glad you survived the vet visit this morning.

Joanie Sommers' version of A Summer Place is also a favorite - it was the flip side of her 45 rpm hit Johnny Get Angry....or as she sang it: "Johnny Git Angry."

I really like the main title theme from "Harlow" by Neal Hefti.

Hefty mitts for Hefti.

The movers come tomorrow. We have gotten a lot done. Unfortunately, our access to the new apartment is limited today, as they first were cleaning it and then plan to install a new stove, a new microwave, and a new dishwasher.

singdaw · « **Reply #52 on:** May 12, 2025, 09:55:37 AM »

Our fridge is only a few years old, and we're moving that down.

singdaw · « **Reply #53 on:** May 12, 2025, 09:55:59 AM »

I don't know why they would clean first and then make a mess doing all the installing.

singdaw · « **Reply #54 on:** May 12, 2025, 09:56:22 AM »

But I have to let it go.

I'm up, I'm up - what I was kind of hoping would arrive Friday that didn't, also didn't arrive today. Not good.

Six hours of sleep - maybe.

DR singdaw that's what Elsa said.

I’m partial to the Lettermen Theme from A Summer Place, but I prefer the Faith version the best.
