Out and about in Shrewsbury and there's a time line in the shape of the River Severn snaking Mara-like around the town, depicting the history of the Earth. Nice to see they've included the Alzarian's finest hour. @gruntleigh.bsky.social

It seems appropriate at the #LDCONF to have a cheese and onion pasty. They are delicious hot ... or cold. @markpackuk.bsky.social

Hadn't realised how stupid the NHS dentistry situation is. Nearly 4x qualified - many highly qualified - available dentists as vacancies... but can't fill them as they're not from the UK. Madness. And certain other parties policies will be even more damaging to health & social care. 🫩 #LDConf

Last time I was at the Brighton Centre was to see Harry Enfield & Paul Whitehouse. I suspect today's event will be a bit different as at the ripe old age of 57 I'm at my first ever political conference. #LDConf @libdems.org.uk @markpackuk.bsky.social

Prior to getting Odeon Limitless post covid in Sept 2021 (making it sound like another virus) been to far more movies; previously was selective viewing so nothing stands out as woeful. Since then, 2 films have scored 1.5 / 10 for me - Moonfall and Iron Lung. Terrible, terrible films.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios.

I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on “The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager’s office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “No farting.” I said, “It’s out.”That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.

I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.

That’s great advice for life.

It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.
