Match Game. Less urbane, but still witty, and like being allowed to hang out at a weird little grownup party.

And nothing’s funnier than Bill Daily’s reaction on this clip.

I have a couple of hours of training today to proctor the bar exam starting tomorrow. Pay is good, but the next three days will be long.

Quote from: John G. on July 28, 2025, 05:13:34 AM

Tuesday will likely be 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday could be a repeat. Thursday will be only a half day.

Hopefully, it all goes well, John!

I was looking over the email responses to Tom Lehrer's death. We met when I worked at a used book shop, Theater Books, around 1984. He had come to New York to see the City Opera production of CANDIDE that had just opened at Lincoln Center. I saw the opening night performance, and it turned out we both loved the original Hellmamn version much more than the Hal Prince adaptations. I was envious because Tom had seen both the 1956 original and the unsuccessful 1958 London production. About two weeks later, I received an envelope, sent to me at Theater Books, containing the programme for the London production.

The last time I saw Tom was running into him by chance at a performance (the last, I think) of Bombay Dreams. I was walking past the Broadway Theater and he was waiting outside the theatre for the doors to open.

That is so cool, Larry!

I just watched a movie BK talked about a few weeks ago: The Terminal Man. I, too, had never seen it and this was likewise one of those previously unwatched Warner Archive DVDs.

Most interesting. A lot of it was enjoyable, some of it was slow and not particularly suspenseful but still fascinating, and the cast is all perfectly good. I might have more to say about it, but there's a cat on me making it difficult to type on this iPad.

My book group had an interesting discussion with with month's book, Unfollow: A Journey from Hatred to Hope
by Megan Phelps-Roper.

Jane · « **Reply #97 on:** July 28, 2025, 06:14:24 PM »

I'm glad the discussion was good as I missed an important email from my library telling me I can now put a hold on The Impossible Fortune by Richard Osman.

It isn't as bad as I feared, I'm 12th in the queue. Had I been home I would likely have been in the top three.

Turns out I will work full days on Tuesday and Thursday with a shorter day on Wednesday. And two of us will be proctoring a room with two people in it.

TOD: Jeopardy was good, but Hollywood Squares was my favorite. I may not be quite as classy as other DRs here.

I loved Hollywood Squares, too, especially when Paul Lynde was in the center square.

I am curious about the "reading age: 11-18 years" on Larry's book listing, when right in the title it says "a children's story for adult readers." But, still. Great, great.
