Winding down to Wind Up

A quiet evening in front of a roaring fire as we watched De-Lovely. A 2004 film that chronicles the life of songwriter Cole Porter. Directed by Irwin Winkler, the film stars Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd. Porter was a member of Scroll and Key, Delta Kappa Epsilon, and sang as a member of the original line-up of the Whiffenpoofs. While at Yale, he wrote a number of student songs, including the football fight songs "Yale Bulldog" and "Bingo Eli Yale" (aka "Bingo, That's The Lingo!") that are still played at Yale to this day. Cole Porter wrote 300 songs while at Yale.[2] Murphy’s Romance. quite different but as delightful. Hard to remember Sally Field as the Flying Nun, HA! With today ahead of me, the more mundane needs to be accomplished. The last load of laundry, squeezing fresh OJ and chilling it before I make my Sweeties final breakfast before leaving, still not really realizing what is ahead of me. Soft Winds and Fair Breezes; I soon embark on a new journey. See you all TOP side tomorrow!
