On PAGE FIVE

[John G.]

I had a fun evening at a banquet for donors to a museum. Got to pet a coral snake.

[John G.]

But during the dinner, I got word that my friend, Hudson Talbott, had died. Hudson wrote and illustrated books, some for children and some for adults. He did the illustrated Into the Woods that came out with the original production.

[John G.]

Hudson is one of a very few people I interviewed whom I stayed in touch with. Elmore is another.

[John G.]

When I first met Hudson, I discovered that we had gone to the same high school in Louisville, though we were both living in upstate New York at the time.

[John G.]

I have an original of his, actually a self-portrait, hanging in my living room.

[John G.]

Spielberg produced an animated film of one of his books, We’re Back! It’s about dinosaurs and, well, Spielberg botched the movie. The book had realistic dinosaurs; the movie made them cute.

[John G.]

That’s all for me tonight.

[John G.]

Good night, all.

[Rodzinski]

Glad you're back, DR Rodzinski!

Thanks Kevin!

[Rodzinski]

Sorry about Hudson, JohnG.

[George]

There's a bus that goes to my local AMC theater and I was all set to take it but the sidewalks on my street (it's a busy 6 lane road) were not shoveled and I'd have to walk in the street in order to get to the bus stop.  So, no go.

That's too bad, Kevin.

[George]

Thanks again, DRs George and Jane!

You're welcome, Kevin!

Very cool, John!

Oh, no.  I'm so sorry, John.  I love his Into the Woods book.

[George]

Nice!

That's too bad.

But this is a good thing to participate in:

No work, no school, no shopping: A general strike to protest ICE is attempting to go national

If you're able, this is happening tomorrow.  Being retired makes it very easy to participate.

[George]

It's happening tomorrow, January 30th.

[George]

Tonight I ushered for Wait Until Dark.  I thought that I was working concessions, but that's happening next week.

[George]

I don't know the original play, and I'll confess that I've never seen the movie, but tonight's show was pretty good.

[George]

As the description said, the set and all the costumes are monochromatic and it all worked.

[George]

The only exception is that the doll was very red.

[George]

It wasn't until a few minutes after it was introduced that I realized that it was bright red when everything else was black, white, and gray.

[George]

Tonight was one of their pay-what-you-can performances, so it was pretty full, but it wasn't sold out.

[George]

It is only Thursday, you know.

[George]

I'm looking forward to seeing it again next week
