Dreamed of being in a Hollywood musical combining Last Exit to Brooklyn with Harold Robbins' The Lonely Lady; a group coming together for a parade in one scene; a non-existent old film of Pierre Trudeau playing college football; wanting to write a diary entry but being unable to remember the date. (I thought it was August...)

Baked multigrain bread.

Saw the DVD of Becoming John Ford, a documentary about the great director's early years at 20th Century Fox studio.  Of course, it made me want to see movies like The Grapes of Wrath and How Green Was My Valley again.  The disc's extras included Ford's World War II documentary shorts about Pearl Harbor and Midway.

Dinner was roast chicken.

Went to the Socratic Philosophy Meetup at Aroma Espresso, but there was only one other person there, possibly because of confusion about the location. (The webpage map showed the wrong place.)

Saw the DVD of the first episodes of the fourth season of The Bob Newhart Show.
