I have friends on the west coast who are dedicated film buffs.\u00a0 <\/span>They go to Sundance every year. They\u00a0see every nominated film and watch The Golden Globes and the Oscars . I decided that I\u2019d emulate them, sort of. I saw The Favorite<\/em>, not a favorite. Next was Bohemian Rhapsody<\/em>. Has too much been written about Rami Malek\u2019s prosthetic teeth? Even so, you can\u2019t take your eyes off them. They are far more interesting than most of the other parts of the movie. Queen is lauded for its music. Maybe so but the actors who played the band were dead in the water. Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury tried hard. His grappling with being gay was forced. His wandering in and out of his marriage was\u00a0 <\/span>unrealistic and boring. His wife, played by Lucy Boynton, smile sweetly through it all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Sisters in Crime had an Open Mike at The Mysterious Bookshop. The shop is a beauty, wall-to-wall books. About ten of us read from our stories. We had five minutes which was long enough. Such fun hearing what others were writing.\u00a0 <\/span>Afterwards, everyone was invited to an Indian dinner. A lovely evening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A thought: \u00a0is the iPhone going the way of the digital camera, the calculator, the pager, Sony\u2019s Walkman and the Palm Pilot?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
