    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    A brief moment last nite, remote comfortably inside my left paw, I almost clicked King of Thieves with Michael Caine as evening selection but backed off since the storyline seemed familiar. Never saw this flick but a walk through Youtube and some other sites showed a couple of movies or docuz...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Ms Smitty or was it Smith? would be best advised to claim false imprisonment. Severance from her deceased boyfriend is as valid a defense as any in this wacko bank job. The tragic demise of Ms Moore lends speculative consider of fetal viability during gestation and the law's ever increasing...

    En banc, Mobarez; and McGhan, a singular from the DC Circuit. Hardly read, much less analysis; only skim milking risen cream for a certain nominee's thought since her judiciary appearance proved deliberately evasive shirtfront poker. The issue at hand is the limit-or reach of executive...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    First, both Ms Beverly and Ms Ganly? have great gams. Man does not live by breast alone.... And that idiot Fiorello with all his anti-burlesque ruse-I miss the Star girls. End of rant. Sorry. Now, the war aside, I found a solid Estates & Trusts case. If I were the late Mr Kent's personal...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    A post script toss out to Robert Redford: the guy has some chops, recognized good material, took a shot at Gatsby even though Fitzgerald had a hard knock rep about being unfilmable or at least resistant to the camera; others such as The Way We Were; Three Days of The Condor; Ordinary People...

    Finding clothes from the movies...

    I just remembered April 14th is fast approaching. Last year nailed it within an hour of buildg post close. Did a lateral handoff to the clerk, my tax forms a mess as usual, always a mistake or two but w.t.f.... :oops::eek::(

    You know you are getting old when:

    Last November 4th while returning home on my evening commute, I stepped off the Chicago Transit Blue Line subway at LaSalle Street and suffered a stroke. Taken by paramedics to Northwestern Hospital, an emergency room physician grimaced shaking his head and stated he didn't know what was wrong...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    A split of champagne and two films: The Blue Max and The Great Waldo Pepper. The latter is a post war barnstormer about a guy who never made it to combat or acehood. But had circumstances allowed, he'd have nailed six kills easily. And he knows it. Does the rubber chicken dinner circuit triple...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Myrna Loy has always shone the silver screen with her grace, beauty, and elegance. She lived her final years in retirement in New York City and hailed Helena, Montana where she is buried with her family; far removed from both Hollywood and Manhattan. Similar to Garbo, also a decided New Yorker...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Caine sliiped on Palmer's kid drum tight right, but longer tooth portrayal nix since Deighton's protagonist past thirty-five begins discernible dragging the East End barrow a bit much. Plebe or patrician, Harry or James, time's distance ran is run. Meant to stock some Deighton this past winter...

    ST LOUIS FED M2 Velocity 1.12/ Inflation 7.87% At M2 estimate $26kB inflation to velocity falls within expectation, velocity low indicates public resistance. ----- SCOTUS nominee Judge Jackson failed Sen Blackburn/Cruz inquiry her record. Affable lady, quite charming but seemingly shy of...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Ryan cut the shamrock by striking Sandhurst, assault and battery. Unconscious, Sandhurst cannot escape Japanese, but he is complicit with the enemy, and might reasonably be assumed an enemy. However, Ryan chose not to kill him. Yet leaving him, Ryan vacillates and imperils his future and those...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    With all this war news it's good to have a battery and assault file to finger through. I will submit that as an Irish parochial alumnus of nuns, Christian Brothers of Ireland and Jesuits, our parents fully expected corporal punishment meted out unmercifully to facilitate education. An incorrect...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I stopped watching the Oscars after Saving Private Ryan lost to Shakespeare in Love. Now Ryan is replete with erroneous tactical details; losing focus on a needle buried in a haystack primary objective behind enemy lines is simply unforgivable. Howeverso, Romeo&Juliet according to my English...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    'Actus reus non facit reum nisi mens sit reum.' Common Law joins act and mind for a crime to have occurred. Otherwise, the act itself exists bereft of deliberate intent. A law school criminal case most remarkable in memory had two US Air Force enlisted men take a maiden-ostensibly alive and...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Caught this story after my last post. The column traversed temporal and religious concerns rightfully raised; and, of course the unfortunate tragedy in the adjacent coverage of widowhood so soon following a war marriage struck a nerve. A Greek girl proposed during a time when Southeast Asia...
