We've been watching PROFESSOR T on PBS.  We're almost done with the third season.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

Has anyone started the The Marlow Murder Club yet on PBS?

Not the new season.

Therapist: I need you to write letters to the people who have wronged you, and then throw them into the fire.

Me: OK, but what do I do with the letters?

Just got around to reading today's Notes. Yes, the Faure Requiem is tranquil and gorgeous.

The other French Requiem (from France) that I love is the Maurice Durufle.

Oy, DR Jane! Will this be a Mohs surgery, or a standard one?

They said insurance won't cover it for my arm.

No, same here when I had a basal on my arm. Mohs is reserved for the face and head. But the arm thing couldn't have taken much more than fifteen minutes all told, so that was nice.

Durufles have ridges?

Oy. Perhaps I should just show myself out.

A 78-CD package of Yitzhak Perlman’s Warner Brothers’ recordings is coming out on Aug. 29. Amazon price is $202. That’s a little less than $3 a CD.

But I do like the scene where the son tells Olive he's not going to succumb to his fear of her.
