  1. Tonight is the Golden Globes awards.Saltburn has two acting nominations. Society of the Snow has a Best Foreign Picture nomination.
  2. We only had rain.It is still raining but the temperature is 41 degrees. My granddaughters flight that was supposed to leave at 4:15 did not leave till 6:30.
  3. I have been a Mets fan since 1962.Prior to this occurrence I had rooted for both guys but never again.Conversely a retired Yankee player could not attend because he was seriously sick.He sent a nephew of his with more than 100 autographed memorabilia .I called to thank him and spoke to his wife.She said he really wished he could have come .
  4. I saw an excellent movie on Netflix last night :Society of the Snow. It is in Spanish with subtitles.I highly recommend it and expect it to be nominated for many awards.
  5. I agree .I lived in Brooklyn 60 years and in my opinion this is the best option.
  6. My perception is that 50 years from now everything on cruises will be serviced by robots.I visualize this for dining rooms as well.Any other opinions ?
  7. I listened to Ranger games on radio in the 50’s but I never became a fan and never went to games.Conversely I began listening to Knicks games in the 50’s and have been to hundreds of games,HS,college and pro .
  8. I cannot remember things that happened yesterday.My granddaughter said she will likely be flying into the bad weather and hopes she will fall asleep and sleep through the turbelance.
  9. I want to go in my sleep too.
  10. I saw that movie years ago.There have been several movies in recent years that were filmed in the area that you grew up in.
  11. My son in law who is the father of the kids who went to the game last night works with a son of a Rangers immortal.One of the rooms in my daughters house is a Ranger room ,photos of great Rangers players,photos of players past and present that my daughter and family have interacted with. Matteau,a family friend has been in their house numerous times.
  12. I will be speaking to them later today or tonight.They texted me during intermission with a picture of them with Matthau
  13. I hope that it does not snow here Saturday because my granddaughter is flying back to college .In December 2010 Toby and I had an 8AM flight to Ft.Lauderdale that did not leave JFK till 8:30 PM due to snow.
  14. In 1994 I was a volunteer four the Make A Wish Foundation.They were having a sports auction fundraiser and I was in charge of getting current and former athletes to attend.A guy who spent his entire career as a Met asked for $7500 to appear.A guy who spent the majority of his career with the Mets asked for $7000 .No other athlete asked to be paid and all were pleased to volunteer their time.A β€œpro”. Wrestler heard about the event and attended with 9;other wrestlers.The event was scheduled for 11 to 4 .The Wrestlers showed up at 6 AM ,helped set up,spent a lot of time with the kids and were the last to leave .They were extremely nice people.
  15. Enjoy your cruise.We went to Martinique the first time in 1994 .To us we felt it was Paradise and have always enjoyed going back there.
