Apple Pie a la Mode Oreos are worth skipping.

I would think so

DR John, I liked Before We Were Yours, as well as other books by Wingate.

I will have to look for her other books.

I thought I had read more than three of her books. Of the three, this was by far the best one.

Browsing her other books I see why I passed on them. Her earlier work is labeled "Christian Fiction" and I tend to shy away from those as too often I feel as if they are trying to convert me.

But I am more interested right now in this:

Interested in what?

Good afternoon.

I think it was a page turn, Elmore.

We spent over an hour at the bank this morning, closing out our account and opening another one. Plus all the upselling.

I’m over it now.

Need to get ready for dance class.

John G. · « **Reply #72 on:** August 21, 2025, 02:00:53 PM »

I’m not looking forward to it because the heat is still oppressive.

DR JOHN G pet dreams can be most disturbing.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #80 on:** August 21, 2025, 04:08:19 PM »

Thanks for the On The Twentieth Century link.

I love the move with John Barrymore and Carole Lombard.....the scene with all of the chalk marks on the floor during the "blocking" scene still makes me giggle with glee.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #81 on:** August 21, 2025, 04:08:39 PM »

DR LAURA I hope you are pleased with the results of your time spent at the bank.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #82 on:** August 21, 2025, 04:11:59 PM »

I am watching Patricia Neal Day at TCM.

The Grave Digger right now featuring a naked Nicholas Clay which is the ONLY way Nicholas Clay should be seen on screen, in photographs, or in real life.

The Fountainhead, Hud, and A Face in the Crowd coming up.

I had to deal with the execrable Samantha EggAR in Psche '59. The woman has no talent and NO upper lip. Most distracinting. I had to deal with her during Walk Don't Run, The Collector, and Doctor Doolittle. BEGONE! Thank you.

Gary Cooper is NOT my idea of Howard Roark....and the final scene seems to be photographed in reversed with his clothes blowing weirdly in the wind.....but then again there has never been an satisfactory film version of ANY Ayn Rand novel....for me.

My name says it all.

My email name is Jaynrand....so everyone calls me Jayne......which belabors the point.

I would have thought Jay or Jayn, but not adding an e.

I am hoping for a miracle tomorrow.
