The Debaters

Nicole arrived in town today. We took her to a live recording of The Debaters. They indicated that they had been here before, but we don't remember that happening. The show has been running for 19 years and I think we've been listening to it most of that time. They did four debates and we really enjoyed it. 

Still no making of Empire Strikes Back

 Years ago we had a disappointing backyard screening of what I thought was going to be "The Making of The Empire Strikes Back" but was mislabled. Today I found the second reel of it, but it was, unfortunately, just a second film can but another random non-Star Wars film inside. 

Cat watches rabbit

 I was too slow on the trigger, but saw this curious moment from the gazebo as a rabbit came into the yard without seeing us or the cat. It stopped in the middle of the lawn and then became aware and dashed off. Sylvie got up but even in her prime would not have a chance against a rabbit that size (it is almost twice her size). 

William gets a break with new Seth book

 William had a busy week. He had to work through the pain of his injured arm to run his meeting of the minds, then paint backdrops, then shoot his scenes, then today he worked all afternoon with Victor Lam. Yesterday's radio show was a solo endeavour where he read from an older Seth book, so today I gave him the newest Seth book to allow him some R&R time. 

Shooting Bird People scenes

 William, Geremy, and my team of Nicte, Aiden, Robert, and Katya shot a 9 minute series of short scenes extracted from William's most recent bird people feature script. 

Possible new car for William

 Margaret was shown this car at Mazda. It came in as a trade in and it the same as my car except its shitty colour and that it's an automatic. We can afford to get it for William and are now talking price. He'll be able to confidently go on the highway and do adventures.
