1977

It's a wrap for Season 1 of Alice. I loved Linda Lavin in Barney Miller; I loved her as a co-host with Mike Douglas earlier this 1977 month; I, of course, loved her in Alice, and I love her in this ...

I've kind of kept tabs on her ever since I heard she had married a fella and lived in Wilmington, North Carolina, about the same time that my wife and I married and lived in Cary. Linda Lavin and her husband opened and ran a theater in Wilmington for a while. She and her husband are now back in New York City, and their Wilmington theater has turned into one of those axe-throwing bars--this one called "Axes and Allies," which is pretty clever.

Wikipedia says she does a lot of teaching. I'll bet Linda Lavin is an excellent teacher, too.

One of my big goals of 2024 is to spend more time on the HP, so I think I'm going to try to get one of these root posts up each week for my nostalgia fix.

I really like establishing formulaic stuff at the HP (#freakinweekend, #ohky and so forth) to then set up a comments fields to play in as a nice distraction from work or whatever over the course of a week. We'll see how long this particular lark lasts.

Well, anyway, here are my background playlists for this week:

• Sunday, Jan. 2, 1977 (/Tuesday, Jan. 2, 2024)
• Monday, Jan. 3, 1977
• Tuesday, Jan. 4, 1977
• Wednesday, Jan. 5, 1977
• Thursday, Jan. 6, 1977
• Friday, Jan. 7, 1977
• Saturday, Jan. 8, 1977

I've really gotten into Rhoda.

Happy new years!
