Yesterday, calls from work totaled for peppered from 9 to 4 pm. It wasn't terrible - my journey to sugar sand park was rained out anyway. I'll be journeying there today (or next weekend), instead

A rewatching of His Kind of Woman was the filler during the thunder and lightning. Not a bad deal, it was more of a light parody of Noir than an actual Noir flick, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Jane Russell looked a little rough around the edges...not as much vaseline on her camera lens as I'm used to. Entertaining writing, and a good vibe. Vincent Price made the movie even more than Mitchum.

Just shipped to me by Netflix - Lake Placid (Betty White's Finest hour), Smoke Signals and Seven Samurai.


Uh-oh. It seems that the Sun-Sentinel has caught on to geocaching. I fear for the safety of local sites for a week or two, now.



The Monarch is being driven to a dinner with his ex, Dr. Girlfriend, and her new boyfriend, Phantom Limb.

The Monarch: "I plan to use the never-fail strategy of jealousy!"
Henchman: "Who's your date?"
The Monarch: "I met her on the LiveJournal. Which I kept in prison. I have been blogging."

Oh, my ears and whiskers.



Max von Sydow looks considerably different in The Seventh Seal than in Strange Brew.



Had a wonderful morning off, no business calls or unwelcome interruptions... the whole time lounging and waking slowly and comfortably. I can't remember the last time I spent all day before noon in bed. I'm now munching some tasty pb&j before heading out for a little midday walkabout. until later, dear journal.

In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love; they had five hundred years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.
- Orson Welles (1915 - 1985), The Third Man, 1949

Whenever you find yourself on the side of majority, it's time to pause and reflect.

Orson forgets the power of fine Swiss chocolate. Poor man---probably never had a magic shell experience.

I think I made myself seem even more pessimistic than I am with that quote meme.

You're back to using Netflix - yay! :0)
The new Netflix friends list page...SUCKS...to say the least. Netflix employees read a netflix forum that I check in on So many people complained, that Netflix responded there and said they are going to fix some of what they screwed up.

I did the "active ignorance" quote. That one would fit me, too.

aww, you're still watching my 'flix queue? I see you've been keeping up to steam, too!

I'm glad the company is keeping an eye on what folks want to see.

did you do other quotes as well? I must check your journal!

I check yours from time to time - to see if you took it off "hold" status. My account has been on hold since May, though! ;) I just starring movies/leaving notes, when I saw a movie at the theater..or on tv.

James has an account now...so I'm on his for the time being. When I see a movie there...I update/star them over on my "on hold" account. I'm not giving that account up...just can't afford it right now. :0)

No entries in my journal yet. See my email to you for explanation....too much has been goig on the last 6 months or so. Then in the last 2 months, too many things hit. I've been hiding.

it was a while before I could "unhold" mine. different things kept getting in the way. I've been back on the horse pretty solidly now, though.

good vibes for you for the future!
