I recall someone on Facebook telling a story he claimed was true, about Katharine Hepburn walking next door to Sondheim's house where some sort of group dalliance was apparently going in, and telling her chef (or someone on her staff) to come home immediately.

That would have been before cell phones and emails, of course.

Google's AI has nothing I could find on the above story, but does report this:

"Katharine Hepburn and Stephen Sondheim: The legendary actress and composer lived next door to each other for years in the exclusive Turtle Bay Gardens on Manhattan's East Side. However, they were not on good terms. Hepburn, known for her privacy, reportedly complained about noise from Sondheim's piano playing. Some anecdotal accounts suggest their feuding inspired the song "It's the Witch from Next Door" in Sondheim's musical Into the Woods."

One time my sister and I drove up to Katherine Hepburn’s old estate in Connecticut. Her bio basically gave explicit directions. We even drove up the driveway roundabout. Some guy was not happy, which is fair. We hightailed it out of there.

Oh, my! Was there ever any suggestion of a reason that her bio gave explicit directions?

Written during different times.

DR JOHN G that is a fair precis of SHAME.

So DR RODZINSKI hide the movie from the kidz.

As Ethel Merman said during rehearsal for Uncle Jocko's during GYPSY....."Don't say
f--k in front of the k-i-d-s!"

Went the steak route and that is broiling now.

After that, a baked potato.

After that, a movie.

Later I'll be having a leftover steak which I'll very gently reheat, a baked potato which I'll microwave, and the last of some cole slaw - a very nice dry-ish one, must see from whence it came.

I just read that a rough-but-works formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is:

Celsius x 2 +30 = Fahrenheit (roughly)

On Facebook, Steve Martin posted a program from his college days. In 1964, Diane Keaton played Carrie Pepperidge in a production of Carousel that Martin was a stagehand for. I would have liked to hear her If I Loved You.

WHEW!! There were six, count 'em, SIX more words that I was thinking of for my fourth guess (I actually made a list)...and I can't believe I even guessed it correctly in time!

Keith's line 3 was the same as yours.

I saw the Steve Martin program but according to what I could find he didn't attend that college - then again, the Internet is a cesspool of misinformation.

Steak was good not great - less than half the price of Gelson's - but a world of quality difference. I broiled it, then finished it in the frying pan in sizzling butter.

Baked potato was fine but too filling.

Guess I'll try to find something to watch.

Steak sounds good....but I still have too much shrimp mac and cheese left to consider it.

This morning I opened a can of tuna for Leonard's celebration. It was tuna packed in oil, which I bought by mistake. He didn't like it. The outside feral cats sure did.

Laura · « **Reply #115 on:** October 12, 2025, 06:27:05 PM »

I got him a can of water-packed tuna and gave him a little bit of it. He licked it.

I was surprised how expensive it was. My DH does the grocery shopping, so I've not kept up on prices.

We ended up getting about 2.5 inches of rain at my house today. Unbelievable. We've had our whole year's worth of rain in about two weeks.

Struggling a bit today - shortness of breath - not sure what it's about other than allergies - began happening about six days ago. Sometimes it gets better. Today is not the day.

Have found nothing to watch due to dozing off.
