Hardy: "How did you get down here so quickly?"

Laurel: "I fell out the window."

--Babes in Toyland

Laurel: "Upset?  I'm housebroken."--ibid.


 Dreamed of riding behind someone oon a motorcycle and the drivwer encouraging me to try driving it. (One of the Trash Palace films I saw last night was about motorcycle safety, narrated by Easy Rider star Peter Fonda.)


    Saw Babes in Toyland, a.k.a. The March of the Wooden Soldiers (for the second time) at the Revue.  The Victor Herbert nursery-rhyme operetta here became an unlikely Laurel & Hardy vehicle.  All the L&H scenes are great, but the rest is precious.


    Dinner was McDonald's.


    Saw the DVD of the first episode of the Ken Burns documentary The Civil War (yet again). Often gnomic but excellent overall.
