DISHING WITH MOM:  JOAN'S GUIDE TO FOOD THE WAY YOUR MOM MAKES IT

I'm terrified that one of these days I'm going to slip & type "manitee" instead of "matinee." Which would be highly embarrassing, cos it'd be misspelling "matinee" & "manatee" at the same time.

Rodzinski, I don't know about Washington, where DR George lives, but in Oregon we did not have any UHF stations until the late 80s when Portland got channel 49 (Fox). However, cable was available at least as early as 1972 (that is when we got it) and our station availability went from 2 channels to, I think, 6 channels! I was in heaven!

Did someone ask for a parody of the Hello Young Lovers verse?  I call this one Hello Young Livers

When I think of Bob
I think about a day
When the room smelled of menthol
And the hair was streaked with gray
And the blue flag of Israel was hanging on the wall
I'll remember this and I'll have a ball

Well, it's late and I'm wound up from a night on the town.  What can i say?  

[Tomovoz]

Thank you FJL.

Feel better vibes for DR GEORGE.

Yes, George, do fight it off.

I, too, am in the throes of coming down with a cold.  Your last night is my today, I'm afraid.  I feel it coming on and there's not a thing I can do to stop it.  It's a freight train and I'm a confused hobo with his foot caught in the track.

Thanks JRand and Ron.  I took a nap after work and that really helped.  Rehearsal was stop and go, and we worked scenes as we needed them.  We didn't get to the end, but we got through all of my scenes.  I'm going to watch "Heroes" from earlier this evening, then go to bed.

And Vibes to you too, Ron!

Otherwise, good night, all!

[George]

Oh, I wanted to ask George, how is it you never viewed UHF channels back in the day? Were there no local channels above 15 in Washington? I mean where were the late night horror hosts and oddball religious shows? Although I know the west coast had cable TV long before a lot of places, so maybe it was never an issue for that reason.

When we moved to Washington when I was 10 (exactly 30 years ago, last month!), we got cable fairly soon after we got here, so we never needed it.  I don't remember anything about UHF before that.
