Incidentally, on the very crowded bus I was on today coming from visiting Mom in the hospital, some young guy offered me his seat. It took me a second to realize he was doing so because he thought I was old.

Naturally, I took the seat. I mean, free seat. C'mon. Vanity only goes so far.

One of the great things about earlier Twitter. Another of mine was me talking about the "unexpected item in the bagging area" thing in supermarkets and saying I'd put a really unlikely item in there one day, like a surviving member of the Monkees, then Micky Dolenz retweeting that. What a guy.

I agree about tuning in. Think of how the man on the bus summarizes Joan's fiance, "the rich man of Kiloran": the fish do not know him.

It's not often one sees a movie with the production values of a Very Special Episode of "Lovejoy." #DriveInMob #Welcometotheearly90s

Ah, so this is going to be subtly comedic, is it? #DriveInMob

#DriveInMob I appreciate that this movie has the opening theme of an educational movie about fractions.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt's desk in the Oval Office, including his phone with no dialing mechanism (since all calls went through the White House operator).

I mean, check out FDR's desk. That's a person's desk, not a stage. Is that Fala's ball on the floor to the right of the chair?

TWO toy airplanes, at that. MLK bust replaced by...Eisenhower?

I know it's been a long time since one could see a personal touch to the Oval (JFK?). But, my, it's such a tacky mess and tacky messaging.

Yes, fascinating movie---but also fascinating as a portrait of life with an obsessive artist. I think of that terrible, painful scene in the food court where we can see that marriage collapsing.

I've been deploying "Northern Exposure" as an escape/comfort in the face of what's happening with my dear mother. I haven't see it since the high days of reruns on A&E circa 1996, & yet so much is etched in my memory. Also struck by how strange a show it still seems. Need to visit Roslyn, WA.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive
