I learn Jean-Claude van Itallie & Richard Harrison were born within 24 hours of each other.

I suspect I shd let John Bloomberg-Rissman know.

but he knows everything.

o no

in my current collection Son of Hollywood there is a poem calld "Body Parts." one of the sections is "Owen Wilson's Nose."

I just learnd that the actor is a rightwinger who supports the "president." suddenly his nose is no longer sexy.

Clint Walker (1927-2018)

I was staying at Camp Michael in the Dakotas & saw the proprietor had a photo of Clint Walker so I had myself photographd with it to send to my old buddy Jim Provenzano who has long been a fan of the Western star.

then I took this of Jim himself with Walker's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

& as so often happens just the other nite Jim & I talkd abt Walker over salads before crossing the street to see his most famous leading lady Kim Novak at the Castro Theater.
