Charity Alert: Encourage reading! The Literacy Site

Weather: It's TIME for soft snowfalls, and we're getting them.

Wildlife: That California Blue Jay is still mooching around our bird feeder -- the guidebooks say he doesn't live here.

In the Community: College Xmas party tonight -- talent show and all. I'm supposed to videotape it -- can you spell B-L-A-C-K-M-A-I-L?

Media Watch: We enjoyed watching Charlotte Greenwood in Buster Keaton's rather drab Parlor, Bedroom, and Bath. The much-maligned Passionate Plumber is better than we thought too, even though Jimmy Durante is really mis-matched with Keaton as a partner.
Next is What, No Beer? in which Keaton looks like he is bottoming-out from the preview. It WAS his last feature film for many years.
Speak Easily was also a pretty grim effort, despite Durante and the doomed actress Thelma Todd, I hope it isn't worse than that.
