For those who are wondering about Russell Crowe's directorial career:

In addition to his debut in "The Water Diviner," the New Zealand-born actor, screenwriter and musician (guitarist, singer-songwriter) directed Poker Face, a 2022 Australian-American thriller film, for which he wrote the screenplay.

He also co-directed, with Brendan Fletcher, Texas (2002). The documentary follows Russell Crowe's band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, on their journey during summer 2000 from Australia to England and then to Austin, Texas.

The first in-text image gives us an eight-word glimpse at the Shirley Temple cursive penmanship.

Isn't that penmanship beautifully legible?
Might it not be elucidatingly interesting to muster the Temple printing and writing from childhood to youth to adulthood?

Hackberries and persimmons appeal to ringtails and ... -- ;-D -- to me!

The ringtail diet of moistly edible berries and fruits and of clean, clear water can be so easily configured into our diets, can't they?

Hackberry and persimmon fruits ensure us of delicious, healthy jams, jellies, juices and salads fresh and of delicious, healthy trail mixes dried.

More and more houseplants from the Martin pages beautify the interior downstairs, ground floor and -- when the attic door is open ;-D -- upstairs even as the front porch, the garage and the house sides console themselves with the natural configuration of lichens, mosses and wild plants.

If only Tovah Martin would write another book, about the indestructible outdoor plant, be that plant cultivated or wild, don't you think?

True. But Shakespeare took his Geography lightly.

Celtic cultures dominated Britain from Cornwall to 5he Scottish Highlands, so Wales did not stretch, it merely shrank from the East. Francis
Pryor, anarchaeologist, says that the East and West sides of Britain were at odds,but eastern Britain won.

String theory invites introspection and investigation, particularly with some unusual configurations of our universe, doesn't it?

Dr. Hawking is one of my first two choices, tied for first place, for any astrophysics-illuminating publications even as Dr. Brian May, also of Queen, is the other ;-D.

The whole convent has a role in managing the flame, asth3re isstrength in numbers.

It was all sad. My father hated the war and was glad to get out of it.

The custom is for ornaments, such as trees and lights to go up in lateDecember and go down on the sixth of January.

That is the reason for incomplete histories. You have got to the centre of the problem

Thank you for your comment below, in answer to your previous observation and question.

Speaking of the Magi -- ;-D -- a somewhat relevant, somewhat irrelevant question comes to mind.

The 20th century had some lovely traditions, such as everything as possible closed Good Friday out of respect for Jesus Christ's three hours on the cross and holiday trees left up through Jan. 6.

This century, almost everything, if not everything, is open Good Fridays even as Christmas trees invite taking-down parties the day after.

How might east-ponders as British Isles-ers -- ;-D -- manage their Christmas tree setting up and taking down dates?

He is doing well. Thanks. The pay and conditions are identical
