Post 2611 - Saturday

Hi. It is Saturday evening. I am in my rec room listening to my newly-purchased sound bar which has a built-in FM radio. I am listening to Randy's Vinyl Tap on CBC Radio. Like could be a lot worse.

I'm sorry I didn't write the last couple of nights. My body shut down on me very early Friday night, and I got home fairly late on Thursday.

My post about Theda Bara the other night has been read by quite a few people. A silent film email list I'm on has distributed that blog post amongst its readers, and I have learned that  Charles Brabin's nephew is trying to piece together Theda Bara's and Brabin's life together. Perhaps this gentleman and I can pool our resources and see what we can find out together. Once again, there would be few, if any, primary sources after all these years. Nobody seems to have a picture of the cottage they built in Harbourville/Bay View, which they called Baranook.

There's not much else  to report. The sound bar I got today at  Xscargo was 50 bucks. It has built-in bluetooth, so I can pair my BlackBerry to it. The FM tuner is good enough to pull in all the local stations except for Wayne Harrett's Seaside FM. Live 105 comes in great. CBC comes in great. It comes with a remote.

I guess that's it for tonight.

See you tomorrow.

And, I mean it.  See you tomorrow.

Still hit and miss in parts of the HRM for 105.9 SEASIDE-FM...We're still waiting word from the CRTC for approval to move our TX to the CBC Halifax site. Currently,LIVE 105, puts a beating on us in some areas....
