I was spellbound, just as with the older version. I had a phone call from a friend at about 7:15. She and I can spend an hour or more on the phone sometimes. I very quickly told her I just got out of the shower, all I had on was a robe, my hair was wet and I was waiting for the movie and for her to watch it, "Talk to you later. Bye." Nothing was going to keep me from seeing the movie. Because of my age I can so relate to that era. I think I was a little thrown off by John Stamos. Just didn't quite fit. (He can't help being so cute!) Yes, it was GREAT, and I hope we will be seeing more quality programming on TV in the future. Sue

Snidely, thanks for sharing that. I didn't know and that's very interesting. Georgysmom, I totally agree. In the over 35 yrs. that I live in the US, race discrimination has been the most puzzled to me. From a foreigner borned point of view, I see it differently. US is a country that is composed of immigrants from many many other countries. There are no real Americans except for the Native Americans which has a small population in this country at the moment. Different people from different countries migrate here to look for a better life. Thus, it made more sense to me that this country would have the least discrimination. After all, everyone must have had learned to live together in order to have a hand in building this country as one of the most powerful and influential country in the world. Ah yes. Then, there's the black Americans which reminded me of a true and sort of funny incident that happened at a friend's working place. At a break room, there was some debating and a bit of rivalry about discrimination between some white and black workers/employees. One of my Asian friend stepped in and firmly told the black workers to stop being bittered and complaining about the past. She further said that if not for slavery brought to the US, they would have still be living in Africa and probably died of hunger or poor health condition. Instead, they should forget about what no longer exist (slavery) and be blessed that they live here where one can enjoy the benefit & freedom this country provides. The rivalry stopped; everyone laughed & agreed.

Another icon gone - Sidney Poitier

Icon is right. What a legacy he leaves! All of the barriers he broke down and the roads he paved. And I’ve always heard what a genuinely good and humble person he was off the screen. Another great one is gone. I enjoyed reading your memory of To Sir With Love, and how it affected you. Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner also still has such an impact on me, even as many times as I’ve seen it. It’s just so powerful. Not an easy movie for him to make. I’ve had it on our DVR a while, I think this weekend would be a good time to watch it again. It would be very hard for me to pick my favorite movie of his, I love so many of them. RIP, Sir.

Any suggestions for wine?

Great menu.

If my guess is right, I know both Sharon and Clive are lovers of big Italian reds. If my guess is wrong, I'd still go with a good Italian red.

Sharon and Clive? Does this mean they've begun their farther south trip? I hope I see them in the next few weeks in Nashville!

Lucky whoever is dining with you. Food is great, and the company even better! I like Ann's suggestion, I know I'd enjoy that.

My first guess was Pam, and my second guess was Silvia, but now I'm thinking that Ann is right, and it will be Sharon and Clive.

The HG suggested some wine he bought recently...OMG! it was in a PLASTIC bottle! I thanked him for the thought but suggested that he keep it for his own consumption.

"HG" = House Guest? Hairy Gorilla? Happy Gardener? I cannot figure that one out.

A nice Valpolicella would go well with that menu, or a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. Neither are overpowering, but I find them both enjoyable.

What a great party if all your guess guests came to dinner.

Arley, I was thinking Montepulciano d'Abruzzo too since we and our guests have been to Montepulciano. oooops, too much information.

Lars, Definitely "House Guest".

Dees, what a great line!

That menu sounds great.

And my dh is also an 'hg' and he would look at the sales ads and say, 'oooh, lookie here. Reds are 3/10 at Walgreen's next week. You want me to stop and get 2 bottles?'

It must be Lou because of the wine. I think Clive has also been to Montepulciano, but he is not a plastic wine bottle kind of guy.

Since you said guests, plural, I say Sharon and Clive, since they're in Fl and haven't been to see you this trip that we know of so far. LOL.

Great menu btw. I'd love it all, but can skip the wine.

The airfare from here to FL is really cheap.

I'd bring, er I mean, serve a nice Chianti but skip the fava beans. Seriously.

Well, that does rule out Lou! I'll go with John too- he seems like he is indifferent to wine in plastic-...so what's the prize?

Come on down Pam, plenty of food and no fava beans!
Jimster, you were on the list but I didn't get an RSVP.

Okay, enough teasing. Sharon and Clive are staying near by and I am pleased that they have carved out some time to visit.

Can't wait!

Sharon and Clive are great fun at dinner, and I could not believe how much Clive and I had to say to each other, especially since Sharon and I had so much to say as well, and it was a short evening. Take lots of pictures, and video, if possible!!

I'd love to!!! I could even get to see the Ray's Knife exhibit. If I just had a way to pay for the airfare... I would. I'd even jaunt an over to see cousin Ingrid (they live in your city) and her bunch when you were done with me. Y'all have fun wihtout me, but enough for me. Hugs to all!

Yum, yum, yum! As a half Italian, ok, as a living humanoid, I'd love that menu. Who wouldn't? Have great fun, which is really a given. Look forward to some pics.

Dinner was amazing and the company was even better! Raymond and Cathy are absolutely delightful and lots of fun. Don't think there was one moment of silence the entire evening! Truly it felt like we had known them for years.

Just a great evening but I'll wait for Cathy to post pics before saying more.

........and remember Cathy you promised not to post any embarrassing ones ! LOL
