Listening to the marvelous Robert Russell Bennett violin concerto. We released the old mono radio broadcast performance, but I think this is its first actual recording and it's just great and comes paired with a Vernon Duke violin concerto. It's on Chandos.

Also watched more best of Graham Norton clips. I do wonder if he's ever had a guest on who was not having a great time and how he handled it. I read that Timothee Chalemet was on and completely embarrassing. I'll see if I can find that clip.

I haven't seen a lot of his interviews, but I've known about him for years, and I've never seen him with a bad interviewee.

Why am I sweating, for God's sake?

I mean, I have the heat on but not that much.

Evening and thank you all for your kind words on my new posting #!

BK I’ve been enjoying “It Won’t Hurt to Try It.” Particularly the Georgie Fame version, which has my favorite vocal and arrangement of the ones I heard.

There used to be a chap in LA who ran tours of infamous spots around the city called the Find a Death Tours. I interviewed him once for a freelance thing, then TPunk and I went on one of his tours. Except nobody else signed up that day, so he just drive us around LA in his jeep. We tried to get into Paramount studios, and it worked. We just wandered around in there. Was kinda crazy. That was also the day we drive by Charo’s house as she was pulling out of her garage.

I’m only reminded of this because the guy had been Graham Norton’s significant other for a few years.

Slicing, dicing, and mincing done.

Listening to music all night.

bk · « **Reply #223 on:** December 23, 2025, 10:48:52 PM »

The two violin concertos were wonderfully done.

Mincing the ten garlic cloves was the easiest and fastest it's ever been. Why?

bk · « **Reply #225 on:** December 23, 2025, 10:50:20 PM »

Because I've been watching a lot of YouTube food preparation videos and watched how they did it. And it worked splendidly. I never used to smash the cloves before dicing and mincing. Smashing is the secret.

Who knew?

I did not know.

An hour has passed.

In a few minutes it will be the very Eve of Christmas.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #230 on:** **Today** at 12:01:54 AM »

Not to be confused with the very Eve of Arden.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #231 on:** **Today** at 12:02:50 AM »

Arden being one of three towns in Delaware founded on the principles of economist Henry George.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #232 on:** **Today** at 12:04:38 AM »

Henry George, buried in Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery. It is said his funeral procession had millions lining the streets from Grand Central Station to Park Slope Brooklyn.

Now virtually unknown by all except progressive land tax advocates.

Will our posts be thus forgotten?

As we bide our time in the quest for another page?

Are these writings but tracings on the surface of the sea?
