On TV Tonight
The Miracle Worker was on TNT or AMC or DDT or some such tv network tonight. My six year old daughter Isadora followed it for awhile- mostly she liked imitating Helen by stumbling around the living room and making grunting noises to the cat. John Astin (Patty Duke's ex-husband and Sean "Sam Ganges" Astin's Dad) is a faculty member at Hopkins. He's completely bald and very gracious and worked with Charles Laughton in a production of Major Barbara is the 1950's. But, he gets annoyed if you ask him questions about Lord of The Rings.How come Eric Jenkins didn't sport a goofy van dyke like the guy in the movie? He kinda looked like he was going to hypnotize Annie Sullivan.

Does he get mad if you ask him about being the Riddler on Batman? [Though it must be noted that Frank Groshin -- Pittsburgh native/ CMU grad -- was the better Riddler.]
Yeah- he was Gomez all right. He's okay about that- and also a part he had on Night Court for a gazillion years.
He was also nominated for an Oscar for West Side Story, but I bet Batman was more fun.
