in the evening i went to the Trylon cinema and saw the movie 'Rafferty and the gold dust twins', from 1975. this is the first one i am seeing from their summer 'road movie' series. i wasn't too familiar with Alan Arkin, but i had seen some shows that Sally Kellerman and Mackenzie Phillips had been in. i do like road movies, although this one fell short on the ending. at the outset, the ladies said they wanted a ride to New Orleans, except we don't see much of that city. we see plenty of Las Vegas, as well as Tucson. since i had recently seen 'American Graffiti' i noticed two actors in that one was in this one- besides Mackenzie, also Charles Martin Smith. i liked seeing some familiar things in it, such as one scene early in their road trip where they stop at a dairy queen. we see Dennis the menace in the background and i knew this cartoon character had been a part of their ad campaign for a while. i plan on seeing two more movies in this series, but that is all for this month. the other two will be in September. after the movie i stopped at a Walgreen on the way home and picked up some drain opener for the bathroom sink, which was draining slowly. at work, i sent some refund checks to another floor even though vacation replacement was not in. a colleague locked them up for me. the boss asked me to do a MICR ruler test on a check, and it looked fine to me.
