Rehearsal for the Requiem, an extended lunch, then mostly the waste of the rest of the day. Poking around in You Tube got me in a Hollywood mind. I remembered that my mother’s favorite actors were Tyrone Powers and Alice Faye. My father seldom expressed any such preferences, but he did mention several times The Time Machine and Rod Taylor’s performance in it. I contemplate that, trying to derive some understanding. The cold annihilated the last of the zinnias, but the roses made it through.
