I'm surprised Bollywood hasn't plagiarized it already! Or maybe it has.

Thank-you for being so honest with us as to what is happening. 

MAJOR vibage for you, the Vixter, Vixdad, and everyone else you hold dear.

I don't know why I feel so cold today - brrrrrr.  I've got the heat on but it's just not warming me up....

I'm...about to whip up a batch of Tuna Glop for our dinner. 

Tuna Glop...that sounds like what I've been hacking up the past five days.

(Sorry, Ginny...but the door was wide open with a name like "Tuna Glop").

the "Disney Princes Cruise"

I'm glad to see that the Princes are finally getting equal time!    :)

Although I'm sure some of them could give the Princesses a run for their money!

SPOO!!  -Although, a "Disney Princes Cruise" could be quite, well.. fun. ;)
Sounds to me like a Freudian Slip (in basic black, with lace details, of course).

Dear Esteemed BK - did you ask the people at the Deli how long it would be before they'd have more tenders, or did you just assume they wouldn't bother?

WOW!

So, the Facebook "reunions" continue...  I was just contacted by another friend/classmate from my grade school and high school days.  It turns out he's a co-author of a recently published book about the rescue efforts at The Pentagon on 9/11.


WOW!

That part that made me laugh was the writer wondering it they even had the rights yet! LOL! I don't think any Bollywood producer has ever even considered the need to get the rights on anything first!

And it seems to me that there was already a Bollywood version of BACK TO THE FUTURE just this year. LOVE STORY 2050 it was called and it tanked at the box office.

IF they're cooking the tenders it usually takes about twenty-five minutes to get them back in the serving case.  In this instance, they hadn't even started cooking anymore.

I am going to take a swig of my favorite nightcap, Nyquil, before bed and see if it helps knock this cold out before it sets in too deep.

And would someone step in as editor to rewrite that sentence before we go to press?

Hi folks,

I have bad news.  When I came home tonight, Mr. Boxer was gone.  I don't know if he somehow climbed the fence and got out or if someone got him but I have no clue.  

My front porch is gone as well but I kinda expected that.  They found all kinds of rotten wood under so now I have to have a new roof.  I'm getting scared.  I knew I was going to have to spend some money but I'm very afraid as to how much this all is going to wind up costing me. 

The guys just left and Sheena is hungry.  I don't know if I am or not at this point.  I also have to change from my work clothes.

Be back later.
Danise - so sorry to hear about this.  All of it.

I haven't seen either film, but just based on the fact that Hollywood seems to love a comeback and to show forgiveness by granting awards, two weeks ago I would have said that Mickey Rourke would win the Oscar for THE WRESTLER. However, last week, I read some very petty statements by Mickey trashing Sean Penn's performance as not being all that good and that Seasn didn't even have a nomination in the bag, much less winning the award. That soured me a little on Mickey's chances for winning. The awards are still a month and a half away, but I'll have to see how the next few weeks ago and if he makes any more reckless statements.

I was wondering if any of the HHW chefs would have any input to my dilemna.

I am making macaroni and cheese tomorrow night.

...My niece is used to Kraft Dinner type mac & cheese....
If what she is used to is the Kraft Dinner type Mac & Cheese Product Which Isn't Really Cheese But The Law Allows Them To Call It That So What Can You Do, then that is exactly what she will want.  Preferably the day-glo type.  The elder Grandlad objects to being served any other type of Mac & Cheese, because it's what he's always known and no other type of Mac & Cheese is allowed.

I had a full evening of viewing.

I began by finishing up the bonus features on WITHOUT A PADDLE: NATURE'S CALLING. Stuff like this is the downside of reviewing discs. For every lovely film or true classic you get to watch, you have a handful of this kind of crummy enterprise not worth anyone's time. True, lots of work went into the film, and I don't take THAT for granted, but the end product really isn't up to par.

Next, I finished the George Cukor: MAN WHO MADE THE MOVIES documentary which I had started last night. The clips end in 1954 (A STAR IS BORN) even though he went on making movies and TV-films until 1981. Too bad some of his later efforts weren't covered since his TV work like LOVE AMONG THE RUINS (for which he won an Emmy) is quite fine.

Next I watched ROSE OF WASHINGTON SQUARE. Very enjoyable pseudo-Fanny Brice story. I wish they had given Jolson some new songs rather than just letting him strut through a catalog of his old hits. I also loved that during "My Man" it was Tyrone Power who was crying as opposed to Alice Faye. THAT was different.

I ended my evening watching the "making-of" featurette on the disc about the production of the movie. Well, I mean, with Miles Kreuger, Michael Finestein, and the always entertaining and knowledgeable Dr. Drew Casper in attendance, how could I NOT watch this featurette?
