George, that was a helluva adventure. Did you leave the mysterious valve off?

Thanks, Rodzinski!  It really was!  And actually, I left the water on.  When my mom has the city people come out, I want to see how they do it so that I can do it correctly in the future, if necessary.



Good idea.  I was thinking they might be able to tell you on the phone instead of the city going to the house.

No one knew where our water shutoff valve was when we moved in here. There is a  main curbside one, but you really want to use one at the house. I was able to find it in the deep recesses of our crawlspace, which, luckily, is more of a walking-around space. I hope your mom’s place has one other than the street one.

I was wondering about that too, but in the moment, we couldn't find anything else in the house.  I'll go back when it's earlier in the day and look around some more.

Good luck.

George, your story about the appliances at your mom's house in last night's posts was really interesting!

Thanks, Freddie.  Hopefully, never to be repeated! ::)

;)

At least nothing was flooding and you were trying to turn it off.  Important info for new renters.

Finished both meals and am sated. The shrimp and the lobster balls were great in the hot pot.

DR George, what a saga from yesterday and all you got for it was a microwave.  Vibes the water valve can be found and doesn't need replacing.

Thanks, Jane!

We have a water room inside our condo and can easily turn the water off, which we do before we travel.  In the garage there is something that can be pulled to turn the water off for our unit and the two units above us.  That is in case the neighbors above us are flooding us with water.


Hmm, this sounds like a situation where, if neighbors really disliked each other, this could be a clue in a detective movie. :)

They did end up coming. I had a couple hours' notice, and we put the side dishes together.

"BLUE MOON" POSSIBLE SPOILER - AVOID THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT A POSSIBLE SPOILER ABOUT "BLUE MOON" - BUT PLEASE ANSWER OTHERWISE IF YOU HAVE ANY THOUGHTS


The scene in the Sardi's bathroom where Hart is getting so emotional (to the piano player) about the reviews of PAL JOEY, in particular negative quotes from Brooks Atkinson's review, make it seem like the movie BLUE MOON's creators seems to be saying that the reception of PAL JOEY (in its premiere) must have been very responsible for a downward spiral in Hart's life.

Do others think I was I reading too much into that scene in the bathroom with the piano player?

Well, Freddie, I don’t think the reviews helped any. But John O’Hara might have tried to outdrink Hart. That certainly didn’t help.

Pal Joey also opened on Christmas Day. I don’t think that helped with those reviewers who  wanted a day off.

I didn't realize that.  Well, that seems like a strange decision for a feel-not-so-good show to have made!
