    The Era -- Day By Day

    I've been away for almost a week, and there are a number of stories worthy of comment, but "The Bronx is singularly free of corruption? " I know it's way too late, but I couldn't let that one go. This whole story stinks. I guess it only supports the theory that juries are only made up of...

    I hope this is the end of the robot, it's a boring storyline. This strip is a relatively new addition to our mix, let's hope it gets better.

    The Era -- Day By Day

    I found the "Did Brooklyn Really Want to get Married?" column very interesting. Seems like neither side wanted to join together, but were forced to the aisle by outsiders?

    Silly me, I assumed her third-person reference to "The Dragon Lady" was to another woman, not herself.

    I can't take the tension...when do I finally get to meet this Dragon Lady!?

    FF, where did you order the new releases from? If you like them, I'll consider following suit. Nice to see that Father Coughlin lost his mailing privileges - thank goodness he didn't have access to the internet...

    First "Dorothy Frothingham Wagstaff", then "Barbara Bostwick Lykken Reifsnyder"...what a week of names!

    Looks great Lizzie, I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

    The Era -- Day By Day

    I don't know why, but I've always been fascinated by the Automat. First time I ever saw one was in "That Touch of Mink", and I've wanted to try one ever since, but their time had long since passed.

    Suspicion is playing Wednesday morning at 4 am on TCM. Just set the DVR.

    The Era -- Day By Day

    So I went back to page 78 of this thread to find this strip, then spent my morning reading TATP, day by day. So now I'm caught up...but way behind at work...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    George Washington Slept Here - Jack Benny, Ann Sheridan 1942 Similar to "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" (1948) and Tom Hanks' "The Money Pit" (1986) - and probably others. Light-hearted comedy about a Manhattan couple that buys a rundown country house in Pennsylvania and try to renovate...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Well thank you Lizzie, that is far more detailed than I could have asked for - but very much appreciated. Now I feel justified in despising him as much as I do. Now if the oft-mentioned Dragon Lady or HuShee ever reappear, I may have to reach out to you again...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Lizzie, if it's not too much to ask, can you give us a bit of background on Sandhurst? A more despicable character in a comic strip is hard to imagine. But I don't go back with TATP far enough to know his story.

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Been out of town for a week, but it sure was nice to come back to the Daily News - even though the site update made me wait an extra day! Interesting show on Discovery over the weekend, "Hitler's American Battlefield", about the U-boat activity off the coast off the Carolinas - some of which we...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Thanks - 27 inches and 70 mph gusts locally here on the coast, but it hit on a Saturday, with plenty of notice. Lit a fire, had some food and cocktails and just rode it out. Couple of hours of clean up yesterday, but no harm done.
