The String Bean -- And Updates

 This 1962 film has resonated with me ever since it aired in a college class. It reminds me that the almighty $$ is not the most important thing...and many live on a much lower income than most of us. 

     It's also charming. 


Marie Marc is the star, by the way. A wonderful actress.


Why you haven't heard much from the Brick house lately -- my 'w' and '2' keys are now permanently stuck. The Brick took my laptop apart, which took a few days of careful fussing and Youtube videos. (And some deserved lectures on not eating while I'm typing.) Unfortunately, the replacement keyboard was the wrong size! So I wait... 

     He generously is loaning me his laptop, but that means no news sites (he's installed ad blockers) and a long, involved process to get to e-mail and the blog. His computer is quite different than mine. I'm figuring it out, though. And eventually I'll have my laptop back. Probably around the new year.
