Sorry, sports fans, but all I can manage today is a Wrist to Forehead Sunday post. I don’t know why I call my readers “sports fans” when this is not a sports blog, although I think my readers are good sports about my missing posts and doing foolish posts instead of writing about Mohawk Valley Adventures, as promised. At least, maybe I didn’t promise exactly; I try not to make promises. Anyways, tonight I feel ready to swoon, dramatically posed with the back of one wrist to my forehead, onto a handily placed chaise lounge (I add the description for the benefit of anybody just tuning in).
Preview of Coming Attractions, maybe.
Here is a picture I took last Thursday of my great niece and nephew, Evie and Sheppy at the ARC Park in Herkimer, NY. Their grandmother, my sister Cheryl, invited me to join them. We had a lovely time, and I took a number of pictures for blogging purposes. They were very nice about posing.
Right now I am, big surprise (to regular readers), watching Columbo. However, I had an interesting reason (or do I flatter myself?) for picking this episode. I saw the actress who plays the murderess last night and today as I was watching the movie Mr. Brooks (I started it last night but was too tired to finish it). Alas that I do not know the actress’ name. Do you suppose I could find it online? Regular readers know I am no hand at that.
Random picture to denote passage of time while I look.
Lindsay Crouse! When I saw her in Mr. Brooks, playing Demi Moore’s boss, it took me a minute to recognize her, because she had a different hairdo and was playing quite a different character. She was a very sexy murderess in Columbo. For anybody not familiar with Columbo, I did not need to add a Spoiler Alert before telling you who the murderer was. That was the plot of almost every Columbo: you see the murder committed and wonder how Lt. Columbo is going to figure it out and prove it. If you are not familiar with Columbo, I highly recommend it.
I do have a happy Sunday with Columbo.
Incidentally, Mr. Brooks is also a movie where you do not have to guess who the murderer is. I love the movie, but I fear it is not for all tastes. Having said all that, I see I am over 400 words. That’s a lot of words for somebody who didn’t think she could make a blog post at all. Once again, I have to ask, what the hell, me?
