So I get up this morning and take a look at new posts since I last visited and find comments about steel vs. glass reflectors, nice reviews of LA VIE EN ROSE (if you don't know Edith Piaf you are poorer for it) and the new FANTASTIC FOUR, opera on YouTube, and memorable clips of Dean Martin and Victor Borge.

I know it isn't likely to save the world, but it's wonderful and entertaining material. On the other hand, maybe all this positive, nostalgic and fun stuff will make some folks' day a little brighter.

Thanks Brad and to all who contribute to make life a bit more rewarding, interesting and fun. Please keep it up.

Come to think of it, the sewing machine's intermittent probably antedates that of the film projector, which it made possible decades later...
