"In a star, it's called temperament; when a chorus girl does it, it's just bad taste"--42nd Street

Dreamed of playing a version of Monopoly involving solving the kidnapping of an heiress; the start of Alfred Hitchcock's World War II movie Lifeboat (which I haven't seen), with several ocean liners sinking in a colour background.

Went shopping.

Got another batch of comics from Barry King in Korea.

Started reading Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights.

Saw the DVD of the silent movie The Show-Off.  Louise Brooks had a supporting role.

Dinner was roast chicken.

Saw the Lloyd Bacon-Busby Berkeley musical 42nd Street (for the second time) in an outdoor screening at Dundas Square.  Some great dance numbers!  Some other Meetin people were going to see it with me, but they decided it was too old for them.
