I took a step towards prpearing for Passover. Someone here mentioned Kosher for Passover Tam-Tams (I think), so it inspired me to buy a box of them.

A Passover post for the Bar Mitzvah page #13.

The Pacific Northwet?

That is what we natives call it.

We went there when I was about 5 or 6. My parents were talking about it a lot before we went (this was during our move from New Orleans to Seattle.) and I assumed that there was a type of berry called a knottsberry, just like a blueberry or strawberry. It never occurred to me that it was someone's name!

I have probably told this story before, but it is a slow evening, so what the heck! When I was just 21, my best friend and co-worker at the shoe store where I worked decided that we had spent almost our entire lives working at that Mall (maybe 8 months), so one day we quit our jobs and moved to So. California to find fame and fortune. We found neither (or even found jobs) so three months later we moved back to Oregon.

Anyway, times were tough during those three months that we were there. One day my friend's mom wired us some money, so after paying rent, etc., we decided to live it up for a day. So we drove up to Knott's Berry Farm. After enjoying ourselves all day, we decided to have the famous chicken dinner before we went home. The place was packed, and the hostess told us that is was going to be a very long wait - unless we didn't mind sharing a table with an older couple. We said sure, that was fine. The older couple was very nice and we had a wonderful time sitting with them It was only after the couple had gotten up and left the restaurant; that the hostess told us that we had just shared a table with the Mr. and Mrs. Knott.

I was convinced I was going to win the Powerball tonight....I am shocked that I was wrong. That $140 million would have come in handy

Great seeing you, Danise! Hope you're back for good.

Time for the start my weekend Bollywood movie...THE BOXER (1965) starring Dara Singh, Mumtaz, and Azad.

It is something about a guy who becomes a boxer to raise money to fix his sister's eyes, but on his way to Australia for a boxing match his plane crashes and he and the stewardess become stranded in the jungle.

And they do big song and dance numbers in the jungle?

Love the story, DR TCB!!

Of course Knott's Berry Farm is where the Everly Bros. got their singing start, if I am not mistaken.

CONGRATS TO THE NORTH STARS!!! THEY WON!!! 'nuff said

Matt H. · « **Reply #375 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:35:16 PM »

Whew! I've had a full night of viewing.

I began by completing all of the special features on THE NAKED CITY DVD. What a grand and glorious film. And at 96 minutes, not a wasted moment. I loved it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #376 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:38:26 PM »

Next came the Blu-ray edition of THE PRESTIGE. Isaw the film in the theater, so I knew the surprises already (guessed many of them when I watched the film), but it was terrific fun seeing just how many clues to the solutions the Nolen brothers planted in the screenplay throughout.

The Blu-ray is another reference quality disc in both picture and sound. Couldn't be sharper or more three dimensional, and the sound was superb.

Matt H. · « **Reply #377 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:39:33 PM »

I also looked at the special features on the Blu-ray. The "making of" feature was likewise presented in high def, and that was a nice "extra": not only the feature but also the extras in high definition.

Lots of interesting stills, too.

Matt H. · « **Reply #378 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:40:22 PM »

Then, I finished the evening watching the conclusion of REAR WINDOW which I had begun last night. Ah, that Alfred Hitchcock! He never lets you down. Well, almost never.

Back from Mo's where I had a bacon cheeseburger that was ever so yummilicious.

Will we never get to page fourteen?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #381 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:43:00 PM »

Mmmmm a bacon cheeseburger sounds good too.. I am pleased to say I haven't taken any meds all day and I think I have beaten this cold. It's about time

Cillaliz · « **Reply #382 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:43:39 PM »

Well I'm here, I'll help you get to page 14

Cillaliz · « **Reply #383 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:44:48 PM »

I've decided my last day at the office is July 20. Have I mentioned that?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #384 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:45:33 PM »

Did you have any pie, BK?

I'm sure it will occur.

But it's past my bedtime, so I'm heading downstairs now.

Good night!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #387 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:48:49 PM »

It's way past my bedtime, but page 14 is so close

Cillaliz · « **Reply #388 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:49:08 PM »

Is there no one who will help me get us there?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #389 on:** March 10, 2007, 09:49:43 PM »

FJL, I'd like the recipe for the steak marinade...have you found out if Skip can share it?
