  This music is divinely beautiful, although it is a secular piece: "I'll Begin Again," from SCROOGE.

  i was expecting you, but not so early in the day.. i saw you walk up to my neighbor fred's house last week while i was out getting the newspaper, once again tossed into the bushes by a careless newspaper boy.

  today, it's the usual routine of rising at dawn, fetching the paper from the bushes -- where else?

  -- and settling into my comfy, tattered wing back with the first of several cups of coffee.

  You say nothing, and that is good, because I want neither praise nor condemnation. Your silence is companionable. You know there's a time to speak, a time to be silent. Your presence comforts me when, on the other hand, well-meaning friends and family have irritated me with their intended comfort.

  Is your name Solomon?

  i seem to remember that she was not ever dfd even though she was present at the fateful meal, but i don't remember where i saw that.

  it seemed like they specifically targeted raymond, but cynthia was left alone.. i tried searching jwn, but the search feature seems to be not working.. also tried googling the answer, but to no avail..

  You're welcome, Xanthippe!

  If not a deliberate remake, certainly close thematically. Some reviewer said of the last remake of "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers" -- "The Invasion," with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig -- "ENOUGH!"

  Hello, Nancy!

  What's rotten in Denmark has invaded the entire world!

  Thanks.

  Thank you, Xanthippe, for posting.

  Yes, Hamlet was speaking to Horatio. My use of poetic license had me putting the apologies-to-Shakespeare quotation within single quotation marks rather than the usual doubles. I always wanted to recite those words to a know-it-all JW.

  I saw "Meet Joe Black," and was smitten with his co-star, Claire Forlani. It is a remake, I believe, of "Death Takes a Holiday," starring Fredric March.

  I am sorry you lost your husband. My condolences to you and yours.

  Best wishes.

  I know why you are here; you are at my door today in an effort to save me from myself, from the devil, from the world.

  I tell you that I am at peace with both myself and the world. 

  I do not believe in the devil; therefore, how can he influence or possess me?

  Of course, you have been trained to rebut tough nuts like me, but I am content with my life as it stands, without the necessary salvation you enjoin upon me.

  'There are more things in heaven and earth, dear preacher, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.'

  That's a good one, Rip! 

  I love how you can find those old episodes of TZ online. The old lady was Gladys Cooper, who also starred in "The Night Caller" (I'm guessing that title).

  Thanks for the cool reminder!
