Happy 32nd #DebutDay (11 November 1994) to The Santa Clause!
In this comedy, Scott Calvin (no relation 😉), played by Tim Allen, accidentally becomes the new Santa Claus. To date, there have been 2 sequels & a TV show!
JoBe Cerny (Pillsbury commercials; The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas; Early Edition...) has reportedly died & will be added to my 2026 Geeky Goodbyes later

@BaronessRuth Thanks for asking!
She is feeling quite well! There are some symptoms, but it's much less intense. Cognitively, emotionally, she's pretty much like she was. She is still going to bed earlier in the routine, though.
There are still outstanding lab results
Happy bookish birthdays, 11 November, to: Kurt Vonnegut (Slaughterhouse-Five), Mary Gaitskill (Veronica), Carlos Fuentes (The Death of Artemio Cruz)... https://t.co/BsJNlAaBUU
On this day in 1922, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. was born in Indianapolis. Due to the kind intervention of our mutual friend, Bob Weide, I was able to have Vonnegut sign (and then some!) my first edition of "Slapstick" in 1990. A treasure, to be sure.
Groucho delighting a mostly young audience at the L.A. Book Fair, held at the Ambassador Hotel in September of 1976. He signed copies of the recent reissue of his 1930 book BEDS. This was one of Groucho's last public appearances. (Photo by Kathleen Ballard)

If you haven't guessed explicitly in another post & you'd like to possibly contribute to the aggregate total, I have to ask...who do you think it is? 🙂

@Poptique@noirgal17@LaurasMiscMovie That's highly speculative, of course! 😁
The wall would be there to keep dinosaurs out, not to keep Kong out. Again, that suggests a different relationship between Denham's hypothetical wall-building society & the modern villagers
@Poptique@noirgal17@LaurasMiscMovie My speculation is that Kong chose not to climb the Skull Island wall. Gorillas aren't big climbers (it would be odd if Kong is climbing the ESB to escape). Why is there a Kong-sized gate if he wasn't allowed inside in ancient times? They put sacrifices outside the wall now
