I love the story Levar Burton tells of the time he invited Dorn onto Reading Rainbow to read "Chicken Little" to the kids. When he intoned the words, "The sky is falling!", the kids practically peed their pants in terror over such a disaster.

I would love to see that.

Note to self:

Chicken thighs at 6 o'clock.

In the oven. now off to mow the unfortunately 2 ft grass in the back yard...

I also had an excellent time in Budapest. When I was there about ten years ago, it was much less touristy than Prague. Don't know how much that has changed.

I think I'm getting a cold. Do. Not. Want.

SHOOEZ! Love. How high does the back of the heel come up? I have heel issues. But I do love me some Docs.

Liese, it's kind of hard for me to judge that with my leg braces, but it doesn't seem to come up that high.

The people I knew on the East Coast with second houses, had places that were uninhabitable in the winter.

Yeah, my family's place in Canada is a non-winterized log cabin. So it sits empty when we're not there because it's under three feet of snow with no heating or insulation.

I think Fay lived in Budapest for a bit.

You should see Wings of Desire before you go to Berlin.

I just saw The Lives of Others. Does that count?

Both are excellent movies. I heard The Lives of Others was being remade in the US. That makes no sense to me.

We're watching a shows about wine so I went to make myself a glass only to find I had used all my wine glasses to make jello! I am now enjoying wine in a POM tea glass.

I heard The Lives of Others was being remade in the US. That makes no sense to me.

That's what I thought I saw on IMDb, but there was no information. That totally makes no sense, indeed. Hell, part of why it was so good was that it was ballsy for a German movie to be that critical. It's not the same if we're the ones making the critique; we didn't live it.
