I was just coasting down the 59th Street Bridge. Nice and breezy descent. Notice: I’m traveling at 18 miles per hour and it is registering 18.88 miles on the tripometer. I didn’t see that until after the fact. I took the picture while trying to hold the bike steady.
I’m watching The Pope of Greenwich Village. I rented it from Netflix. It has been one of my favorite movies for years but I haven’t seen it in a long time. I like Mickey Rourke’s movies that he made in the 80’s. A couple of weeks ago I watched “Diner” which is another excellent movie with a stellar cast which includes Mickey Rourke. I’m rooting for him to win the Oscar tomorrow night for his performance in The Wrestler. He was excellent in it. I will be tuned in tomorrow night.
I didn’t know about Zooey Deschanel’s musical gifts. What a pleasant surprise. She is very talented and quite lovely. Thank goodness there are people like her who still know what great music is. Simple, moving and melodic.
