R.I.P Christopher Shea (child actor; voice of Linus in A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS)

Such a nice obit.  He was too young.

I returned to the hiking trails this morning.  It felt good to go uphill, down of course was difficult.  It was really nice to walk on the soft trails instead of the hard asphalt, plus there were patches of snow for Sherlock.  I slowed us both down at the mildly icy patches.

DR John G., the Annie Lennox Christmas CD is lovely to listen to, but I don't understand why they decided to tinker with her voice.  Not exactly auto-tuned but it's definitely being piped through some kind of wire.  As they say in Twitter Land, #UnnecessarilyOverProduced...
Thanks. I won't be rushing out to grab a copy.

My user-name might reveal a clue to my fave Leslie Nielsen movie. The movie that brought me to this board!
Will miss you, Captain Jamieson!

Finished the book of "The Painted Veil" this afternoon. Now I'm watching the movie again, which I hadn't seen for a few years. Interesting differences that make each a unique way of telling the same tale. I prefer the original Maugham, but I don't think I would like a movie to follow his story too closely. It's perhaps too internal. And I like the odd pairing that Naomi Watts and Ed Norton make.

What a kookie day.  We finally and I mean FINALLY figured out all the postage and addressing stuff and FINALLY and I mean FINALLY got it all working.  We can now print four labels on a sheet, the addresses of people who've ordered from us before are all in a program on the Endicia site, and it's amazingly amazing and SO much faster and neater now.  This will save SO much time and effort and Kritzerland is finally in this century.

I keep forgetting to mention that I finally watched the classic 1940 film BEYOND TOMORROW...what a delightful, sweet film...perfect to watch during the Christmas season1

And who knew Richard Carlson could look so handsome!!

For some more fun Leslie Nielson, check out the screen tests he did for BEN-HUR.

Back on the "big" computer.  Love the Android, of course I'm too much of a hands-on person to have read the instructions, so I'll need to go back and do that now and see everything I've been doing wrong so far.  :)  Haven't quite gotten how to do the "scroll" thing yet.  I tend to bring up supplementary menu options.

Good Evening!

I went for a walk. A nice two and half mile walk. It was my first walk in a week.  Of course, now I'm feeling uncharacteristically tuckered out after such a relatively short walk. But it was nice to get out of the house for a bit.

As for Spider-Man......

I'm kind of amazed just how much national news coverage last night's first preview has gotten. Well, sorta.  In any case...

Is "5 times" considered "several times" in regards to how many times they had to stop and hold the show?

I've had my 28.5-minute walk around the basement, watched CITY ISLAND, and sustained a pretty deep paper cut while filing some paperwork.  Not a biggie under normal circumstances, but when you're on 3 or 4 meds that have blood thinning effects it's quite an event.  I've wrapped a band-aid pretty tight around my finger to act as a tourniquet.  And my live-in EMT is in Michigan!

DR Ginny - Did watching "City Island" make you want to visit City Island? -Although, if I'm remembering correctly, they don't show too much of my favorite part of City Island: the fried seafood jernts at the "tip" of the island.
