Well, you've read the notes, the notes were hot and lean, and now it is time for you to post until the hot and lean cows come home.  Frankly, they don't want to know from pastrami.

TOD:

I really miss Canter's in Los Angeles.  I love their corned beef on rye.

Here, in Austin, we have no NY-style delis.

 :'(

The only one that was here (Katz's) just closed, and it was lousy. 

 :P

The best corned beef I've tasted in Austin comes from Jason's Deli, which is a non-NY-style chain.

Certainly the c.b. does not approach the quality of Canter's, Nate 'n Al's or even Jerry's, but it is acceptable.

Now, if they would only learn how to make Jewish rye bread here.

ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA is one of my all-time favorite movies.

There seems to be an on-going debate about the ending.

SPOILERS AHEAD





Is the bulk of the movie meant to be a drug-induced dream?

Or, is that final shot of DeNiro in the opium den supposed to be his memory of a happier time?

What do you think?

In terms of deli, I actually like the Artie's Deli food, but it seems even better when it's been ordered in.  We've have exploratory meetings at a collaborator's place on the Upper West Side and she's ordered dinner from Artie's.  While I like the atmosphere at Artie's,especially when I've been there with other HHW-ers, it somehow seems like they take even more care with those take-out orders

TOD: There are no worthwhile delis in San Antonio. The people here just don't understand them.

That said, I loved Mort's Vienna Deli in Chicago. It was a little place under the tracks, as I recall. It's now been 30 years since I was last there. Loved the pickles on the table as much as the great sandwiches and the Chicago dogs made with Vienna beef dogs and all those crazy, wonderful toppings.

What is/was that "famous" deli in the Lubavitcher neighborhood in L.A.?  I want to say it's by the Farmer's Market, but I may be wrong.  We ate there years ago.  Maybe it was Cantor's or however it's spelled.  There also used to be a really deli around 5th or 6th and 10th in the Village that I would go to when I was in NYC, but I can't remember that name either.  I'm no good at all this morning.  :)

Tuesday morning greetings!  Richard and I were all packed at 8am and went out in the snow to pick up the rental car for our trip south.  When we got back home, I parked his car on the street and jumped in the rental, which we could not even get up the driveway.  We took that as a sign that heading for the hills of Kentucky and Tennessee today would probably not be wise, so we're still at home.  I've moved tonight's hotel reservation to tomorrow night and Wednesday's to Thursday.  At least we're not stranded in an airport...

THE GREEN HORNET had a lot of interesting guest stars.  And co star Wende Wagner was very beautiful.

It has been a long day and it's far from over. I helped a friend with a really bad knee get to a doctor's appointment. She went in for knee replacement surgery a few years back. They botched the operation and she came down with a hideous staff infection. Twenty-seven surgeries later (you read that right), she has been OK, if not anywhere near normal. Today at the doctor's office, she learned that the infection may have returned. Judy's really scared that they many have to amputate.

We left the doctor's office and I made her try to forget it. We stopped at a roadside BBQ truck for some pulled pork slicers, then went to a pasta place where she had a spaghetti and meatballs (the comfort food she was craving) while I had an excellent Reuben in honor of today's TOD. Afterwards, we went to a third place for cake and pie and more forgetfulness.

Judy could use a few more vibes and prayers. I'm taking her an expert on Thursday for the next round of guess work on what to do.

And I find it OK not to know their names. I don't have kids, which most of them do. I don't speak Spanish, which is commonly heard. But I do know that they pay attention to the neighborhood, which is nice. They watch my house when I'm gone. And I'm pleasant to them. We all wave, but it's not a deep friendship. No one has come looking for a cup of sugar and I haven't gone looking to borrow anything from them.

I agree with DR George and his Super Infection-Be-Gone Vibes for Judy.   How horrible to have something like that happen to you in this so called modern world where they can give you (male or female) a butt implant for someone who doesn't need a butt implant but can screw up something that is a basic need like a knee.

That's the same with me.  I only know the lady on my west side, Donna, the people across the street and sorta know the people to the east side of me.  They speak spanish and I don't think they understand half of what I try to talk to them about when I see them in the yard.  Then again, may be they do understand me .......

In fact, I went to all of the people I saw out and about tonight because one of the ladies I work with (who lives right around the block from me) told me that they had a man banging on their door last night, asking for money.

They didn't answer him.

This morning, they discovered their car had been broken into and things were missing.

I let everyone I saw know about it in case the guy or guys are still around.  I will NOT open my front door and keep it locked at all times.   Well, not all times, like when I'm bringing groceries or the laundry in but you get the jest.

I also locked Bonny and hope all will be well.  I think the dogs would scare anyone away.  If they yell they need money, I'll just yell I need dog food and they aren't picky!  :)

I remember the director of one of the plays I did many moons ago saying that there as two things that killed neighbors being friendly with each other--AC and TV.   It used to be that most houses had a nice porch so people went out side after dinner to cool off.  They could see and talk with the folks who were either on their porch next door or walking up and down the street.

I guess that's kinda what the HHW board really is.  Neighbors talking with each other except across the country instead of the street.

Howdy, neighbor!

You asked if I usually drive or take the bus.  Usually I drive, but i've always known that if I absolutely had to get downtown and the busses are running I can take a bus if I'm not comfortable driving.

Speaking of cool off--I am VERY happy I had the heat repaired.  We are going down into the 30's overnight and the high will be the mid fifty range for the next 2 days.   YIKES!

Then it will warm up only to have yet another cool front coming through next week.  I just wish it would make up it's mind.  If it's going to be cold, so be it.  If it's going to warm up, great!  But this back and forth within the space of a few days is driving me crazy!

  I felt the same way when I had to go to court about Turner.  My lawyer was on the other side of the state and on the phone.  Turner or his lawyer never did show up but I felt lucky that Thelma was with me.    I think I would have been scared if Turner had shown up and I was alone.

I missed the news but I think we have about 15 inches of snow.  We had none, so it was a lot all at once.  They streets have been cleaned pretty well, but today the wind was about 30 mph or so, so the visability wasn't great and it drifted a lot...oh, and did I mention there are no degrees right now?  Ok it's 0 degrees.   Anyway, it was kind of fun to need to be at the office.  There's a certain satisfaction in digging out, bundling up in my warmest calf-length down coat and heading out into the weather.

Does anyone else find it just the slightest bid odd (but very telling about our society) that the Loughner's neighbor had lived across the street from them since 1972 and yet didn't know their last name?


It depends if they knew their first names or not.  Today we don't use last names as we once did.  I've had neighbors who barely say hello & I was under the impression, which could be false, the Loughner's were people who kept to themselves.

It has been a long day and it's far from over. I helped a friend with a really bad knee get to a doctor's appointment. She went in for knee replacement surgery a few years back. They botched the operation and she came down with a hideous staff infection. Twenty-seven surgeries later (you read that right), she has been OK, if not anywhere near normal. Today at the doctor's office, she learned that the infection may have returned. Judy's really scared that they many have to amputate.

We left the doctor's office and I made her try to forget it. We stopped at a roadside BBQ truck for some pulled pork slicers, then went to a pasta place where she had a spaghetti and meatballs (the comfort food she was craving) while I had an excellent Reuben in honor of today's TOD. Afterwards, we went to a third place for cake and pie and more forgetfulness.

Judy could use a few more vibes and prayers. I'm taking her an expert on Thursday for the next round of guess work on what to do.



Staph infections are horrible.  My own sister nearly died from one, which she contracted at a hospital.

They usually are contracted at a hospital.

Thanks, DR Jane.  We're still in "delay" mode, inching closer and closer to "cancellation."

I don't think our driveway difficulties had as much to do with the car as with the fact that the pavement was covered with about 3-4" of snow.  Usually Richard and/or Rob have shoveled before anyone attempts the 30% incline.

In other news, Callie seems to really have improved.  She's now in the middle of the muddle with the other two.  They play and stalk each other. I have to get used to some of it, I keep thinking they are doing something other than playing.  Boo is so vocal about it.  But if I shoo Rick or Callie away, she gets made at me

Toby and Sheena get a bit rough with each other too.  I've seen a few boo boos on each of their ears.  Yet, you've seen the pictures I've posted of them laying with each other. 

When I think things are getting out of hand I tell them to knock it off but who know what happens while I'm at work.

They are less likely to fight when you aren't around, no competition for your attention.

Oh it's total play fighting.  If I tell them to stop the go upstairs and do it

LOL I was referring to Danise's dogs.

Jane, I hate to say it, but I think we are having communication problems, lol

JR, thanks for the head's up on The Green Hornet--caught bits of a couple of episodes.  Even Betsy remembered this show, unusual for her.  I noticed Billy May did the music and in a bit of synchronicity I got the old Time Life AS YOU REMEMBER THEM 8 volume set today in the mail from eBay.  I mentioned this set a few weeks ago when BK was here, when I discovered some of the Capitol lounge stuff on compilations came from that set--"Billy May and his Orchestra" doing Walter Wanderley and Burt Bacharach, LOL.  I just had to have the whole wrongheaded set again and found a mint copy on eBay of all 8 volumes with the books for $50.  24 LPs, plus books, not bad.  The Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 "recreations" are awful, awful, awful.  Of course I listened to those first.  :)

Thanks for posting that about Margaret Whiting. I got to see her in the late 1990s in an odd touring production of an evening built around "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." It starred Whiting, Julius La Rosa, Carrie Nye and some people associated with the book, including the Lady Chablis and the woman who played piano. They all performed Johnny Merer songs or read passages from the book while John Berendt walked around not doing much. Whiting's voice wasn't all it had once been, but did she ever sell her songs. She was amazing, and I kept wishing there had been more of her. Well, more of her and the Lady Chablis.

I have no idea if that is a lot of snow or not.

Oh, when I went to Catfish, I was the only person in the theater.  Literally just me and that movie.  It was kind of creepy actually


That happened to me when I went to see King Kong Vs. Jaws 3-D back in 1982. I guess because it was a weekday.

Oh gosh, terrible news.

David Nelson (Ozzie and Harriet's' son) died at his home in Century City of complications from colon cancer   :'(

The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriett reruns ran during dinner time and I always begged my parents to let me watch the show while we ate. Most of the time we did.

Had a very good rehearsal - some flubbed lyrics but these songs are VERY wordy.  Everyone in the cast is delightful, the nightmare trio really came together, the pace is fine - I think the show will be a teeny bit longer than our past shows - the run-through ran about seventy minutes, but that's without any commentary, which will probably add ten minutes, maybe a little less since I talk fast.  We also stopped a few times so I think we'll be fine.

Then my New Jersey friend, who actually doesn't live in New Jersey but Connecticut, and I had a nice dinner at the Hollywood Daily Grill which is right next to her hotel.  She's going to try and make the show tomorrow night.

It's been snowing all evening, here in the south Puget Sound.  I don't know what it'll be like in the morning, but it's supposed to get warmer as the week goes on.
