Sword of Doom has lost some of its luster one hour in. The main character is too one-note. I keep wondering when he has time to cut or style his hair in between his eternal brooding and hacking dozens of opponents to death.

John G. · « **Reply #93 on:** **Today** at 03:25:26 PM »

And his hair is fairly impressive.

Congrats on the residuals, BK.

Have a tray of candied almonds in the oven. They smell great.

Recommended for me today by Amazon: a dhoti. I guess because I have bought so many of them in the past.

They’re now fighting in the snow. But no blood.

Sword of Doom post 100!

I'm wondering how my Goodreads book challenge shows I have read 138 books this year, yet my "stats" for the year shows 142 books. I suspect the higher number is including the books I did not complete and don't count in my challenge.

While I thing Goodreads is mostly great, I find it very annoying that I have to label a book "read" with a side option of "couldn't finish".

They do look good. I would have to pass. Today I am doing my best to stick to my low-inflammatory diet. I've been bad over the holidays, nothing compared to how I used to eat, yet my scalp pain is worse and that is scary.

Goodreads sent me an email with fun & interesting facts about my book challenge for the year. At the end of the stats it says I read 137 books. Hmmm, that is one less book from my office challenge page, and 5 less than the office stats page

Jane · « **Reply #108 on:** **Today** at 04:56:21 PM »

I am sure the office book challenge number of 138 is correct since I check everytime I mark a book "read" to be sure it has been added, or not added, whichever is appropriate.

Back to Altered States. Blair Brown is quite good, but Ken Russell and the movie are a mess. Why did Criterion like this?

John G. · « **Reply #110 on:** **Today** at 05:39:57 PM »

William Hurt is especially bad. But I blame the director.

DR JANE that is a LOT of books.

Watching Astaire/Rogers on TCM....so wonderful and never been equaled.

Except that MR BKs recording of PICK YOURSELF UP is perfection.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #115 on:** **Today** at 06:37:48 PM »

On TCM DEMAND I watched YOU'RE A BIG BOY NOW which I loved even more than when I first saw it in the mid-60's. Music including The Lovin' Spoonful.

Then I looked star Peter Kastner up on Wiki....what a wild and sad life.

Highly recommended on TCM ONDEMAND by the likes of me if you've never seen it.

DR FREDDIE that would be great.....but it seems that plays about Frances Farmer are dead in the water.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #119 on:** **Today** at 06:41:25 PM »

In spite of her history and later years.....I love to watch Ginger Rogers movies from the 30's and 40's........
