THE FILM SOCIETY==>A

Friday==>A Happy Friday shout out to all of my loyal and faithful readers and followers out there in the morass known as cyberspace.

It is a beautiful Fall morning here in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World, with azure blue skies, wispy clouds, a rather brisk breeze coming off of the Hudson River, with temperature of 61º @ 10:30am.

The forecast for the weekend is:

Saturday - sunny, 67º/50º

Sunday - sunny, 62º/44º

Soooooooo ... let’s get started with Billi Pod’s report card on last night’s entertainment event ...

THE FILM SOCIETY, in 1970 in South Africa a young teacher, Jonathon, and his school become involved in an Apartheid controversy==>A

The acting is excellent, especially Euan Morton as Jonathon, Roberta Maxwell as his Mother, and Neville Sutter as the Headmaster.

The story line is very involving and emotional at times. The 2:20, two act, running time passes quickly as the characters and plot develops and evolves.

I am so glad I finally got to see it. It is playing at The Theater Row Complex on West 42nd Street and runs through October 26th.

Billi Pod says==>if you haven’t seen this show yet ... do it now!!

When the show was over I came back to the cozy confines of PHC and settled in to watch the final innings of The FuckSox/Tigers ALCS game, won by The FuckSox 5-4, putting them 1 game away from advancing to The World Series.

Game 6 will be Saturday at the cesspool known as Fenway Park @ 4:30pm on FOX. It is win or go home for The Tigers.

In the NLCS series The Cardinals lead The Dodgers 3-2. Game 6 is tonight @ 8:30pm in St. Louis, carried on TBS. It is also win, or go home for The Dodgers.

Oh, just learned that Saturday’s Gators/Missouri game will be carried locally on MSG. Nice!!

OK ... moving on ...

Tonight’s entertainment event is a classical music concert @ Carnegie Hall ...

7:30==>THE FIVE BROWNS @ Carnegie Hall - “Five Juilliard-trained siblings. Five Steinways. 440 keys.  Stravinsky’s ‘Rite of Spring,’ Saint-Säen’s ‘Danse Macabre,’ Holst’s ‘The Planets’ and other works for multiple and solo pianos.” (complimentary ticket)

Man, doesn’t this sound interesting? This group has had several chart-topping CDs and has traveled the world to rave reviews wherever they have performed.

OK, my loyal and faithful readers and followers time to post this ... but first ...

To my family and close friends==>you can’t outrun your past. 

What has happened, has happened and there is nothing you can do about it except to move on with your life and this is what I have tried to do for the past 23+ years. 

I’m OK ... trust me ... I am.

Yesterday’s Pedometer mileage==>3.11 miles (or, 6,817 steps)

Total mileage since 7/1/13==>377.16 miles (average 3.46 miles per day)

GO GATORS!!
