November 3, 2009

Reilly (learning that Japan's about to attack Russian territory): "Without a declaration of war?"

Japanese officer: "Our code does not require one."

"Theirs does."

"Very unfortunate--for them."

--Reilly:  Ace of Spies


    Dreamed of the movie Titanic; planning to turn it off when the iceberg struck; trying to translate "He ain't heavy, he's my brother" into French and Spanish. [Google Translate gives "Il n'est pas lourd, c'est mon frere," and "No pesa, es mi hermano."]


    Saw the DVD of Empire of the Air (for the second time), a Ken Burns documentary about the inventors of radio.


    Dinner was lasagna with spinach.


    At opera rehearsal we did the Bell Chorus from Pagliacci, which I already knew from singing it at Coro Verdi.
