And sometimes a hot dog is just a hot dog.....Sigmund Freud
And the word of the day is: UTILE!
Here's to a Loverly Tuesday for Everyone!
Laters...

I much prefer hamburgers.

Went to see the film LOOPER today (a title which I keep having difficulty remembering for some reason). I enjoy time travel films and this started well with an original and complex idea but at the half way point it shifted direction to become a predictable child in peril movie, with an anti-climatic ending.
At least my local multiplex showed the film with the full height and depth of the screen unlike when I saw PROMETHEUS when they showed the film within a 1.85:1 ratio and simply reduced the height to get it to 2.35:1.
The same with Taken 2, which may be the worst title of a movie in a time of truly lame titles.
How could I forget coneys with Cincinnati chili and cheese on top. Yes!
I thought it was a really good MAJOR CRIMES episode tonight;
Jane, shhhh! Ginny will probably read this tomorrow!
God, do I hate Photobucket! Let's see how large this photo is!

We're on break at the Helix, and I'm having a fantastic Brunch Bar and this carbonated orange drink very much like an Orangina.
The good news is that Rev. Samuel Parris was back at rehearsal last night so that I get to be who I am.....for now, for always, I hope.
Better news is that it is always VERY NICE when some idiot in the cast calls you something dumb - that usually within a page or two THEY get called on something even dumber.
HA HA!
TOD:
When my mother asked him what he wanted, he looked at her intensely and then spat out "Hooley-Dooleys". From that day to the present, my mother and I refer to hot dogs as "hooley-dooleys".

DITTO!
For the record, I have yet to eat a corn dog.
Nathan's are the best chili dogs I've ever had. Not only are their hot dogs of great quality, but the chili is ideal. Very tasty, the right consistency, etc. Love it piled with raw onions, but enjoy it without, too.
And it's the first day of rehearsal for My Fair Lady (http://www.arenastage.org/shows-tickets/the-season/productions/my-fair-lady/)!

T.O.D.
When I was a wee lad, the Snack Bar on the top floor of our Sears Store had the very best hot dogs. Cooked to order on those roller machines and topped with mustard, relish, and those strange reconstituted onions. A minor slice of Heaven!
When I moved to New Jersey, I discoved Nathan's Hot Dogs. And to this day, I have trouble walking or driving past a Nathan's without stopping for a chili dog.
Today I find great comfort in eating a Costco Hot Dog at the end of each visit. Mustard, relish, and sauerkraut.
It looks like the paper from hell is just about finished. 31 pages of fun. I've had one friend read through it and made some changes, punched up the ending. Now, I'm waiting to hear from my sister, who has been a great help with these papers. (She was in college for a couple of decades as a student, so she knows her way around academia, even if she never quite finished her doctorate.)
And now I can breathe for a day or two.

Great pic!
Are folks on the east coast having dinner right now?
Current Oakland temperature is Fahrenheit 96 degrees.
That's 10 degrees hotter than was forecast.
This started affecting us on Sunday...and it was pretty warm yesterday. Today is the hottest day that is expected.
A major cool-down is expected to start tonight/tomorrow.
Where IS everyone?

Went and had a bacon cheeseburger and no fries, and then picked up some packages, did some banking. One of the packages contained Le Cortex de la Planete X CD from Canada - in French. I listened to it and it's really fun. Now I'm listening to a new master that should make any number of people happy. It's a two CD set - all scores by one composer - one score basically complete (only under fifteen minutes ever available before) - a reissue of another score, but remixed and sounding better, with a couple of unreleased cues added, and finally a never before released score.
Or is everyone at home watching "Night of the Living Dead" on Blu-ray disc?
Air Conditioner will be fixed on Monday. Everything is covered under warranty. Seems to be working now, but we'll see how it holds up.

I guess we're lucky it's only in the 70's today, but humid.
As many times as I've been in Skylines and Gold Stars, I never even gave a glance to anything except the 5-Ways. So, next time, my usual 5-Way PLUS a Coney.

Would you like to know how hot it was in the Valley yesterday? 108 degrees. In October.

I spent the day in southern Arizona (and driving to and from). It was GLORIOUS!

Four-way bean for us, mine with the cheese on the side. I use less than half of what they'd pile on.

As for the Topic of the Day...
I'm also a fan of mustard and relish on a hot dog.
However, I also really like sauerkraut and brown mustard on a hot dog.
And then there's the onion "sauce" at Papaya King.
And Chicago dogs are great too.
And Crif Dogs in the East Village does a great deep-fried hot dog... that's wrapped in bacon. ::)

Okay, so this magic chili does not contain beans, but if you get a 5-way , they add beans to it? Is that correct?
And related to the Topic of the Day...
Did anyone else have a Presto Hot Dogger?
I am sorry to contradict all of you but you are wrong
the ONLY way to eat a hotdog is hot off the grill with Gulden's brown mustard and sauerkraut- served on a grilled bun
