The fireworks here were nice and there seemed to be three areas competing for attention.

Most of it was behind the trees....but I could see most of the three finales.

It is dying out now....but still straggling to an end.

Watched 1.5 films on the flight.

A documentary called Disco’s Revenge, which was a fair summation of the rise and fall of disco. Mostly through the eyes of Nile Rodgers of Chic and some NY club deejays. Plenty to quibble about in terms of what gets discussed and what is barely mentioned. But some nice old footage from early ‘70s disco parties. It made me sad at times.

Then the Liza doc which still had an hour to go when we landed though I can’t imagine what was in that hour left to be discussed. Again, many pertinent interviews, and a few random young people who offer nothing. The real MVP, Michael Feinstein did the directors  a solid, as he provides the most coherent connective tissue between clips of modern Liza talking. I mean, they seem to have relatively full access to her but Mike numerous times is leaned on to say, “Liza would say…”  Lots of fun footage.

Not getting swept up in The Brutalist. It’s okay but it’s not doing it for me. I think it’s the drug use, which I just find alienating. It’s what kept me from loving The Goldfinch, for example.

Just heard this song on TV

Lainey Wilson - Somewhere Over Laredo (Performance Video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stc7K1_jH14

From wikipedia:
Wilson co-wrote "Somewhere Over Laredo" with Andy Albert, Trannie Anderson, and Dallas Wilson. Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg also received writing credits as the song interpolates the melody of "Over the Rainbow" ...

DR Rodzinski, are you home or still on a plane?

Finally home. It is warmer here than LA which was quite chilly this morning.

Welcome home, Rodzinski!

The family did come over, but my son brought a chuck roast and baby potatoes and corn on the cob. We put the chuck roast in the instant pot, so it was ready in a couple of hours.

Grandson had a great time whirling the shaved parmesan blend in the food processor to make it more like grated.
