I also received some lovely mail from DR George today! I'm going to prepare my dinner of leftover pizza and a nice salad and watch it.

Thank you, George!

You're welcome!

... and one of the Muppets: the Great Gonzo or Gonzo the Great (he went by both) ...

DR edisauraus nailed that on the previous page, I think.

I do worry about you, Woody.

I see JMK has posted. Hi, JMK! I decided to stay on a bit longer. I'll just work and try to post as well. We'll see if I can do this without getting in hot water. So everyone, "HI!" I hope this will be be a good experience for me and I hope I can bring some laughter to you as well.

Welcome, JulieC!

DR Edi's Gazoo post lead to my Gonzo post, so she should receive half of the credit point...

Glen Grant - Mr. Grant was legendary in the Pacific Northwest as the owner of Glen Grant Chevrolet. For years, he did all of his own God-awful commercials. He was kind of like Seattle's version of Ralph Williams - only much worse.

Kind of like Gummy Bears

Now I feel stupid. I see he posted early this morning. Anyhow, I made a note of Generous George's. Will be staying at the Algonquin end of July. I'm totally new at NY stuff so where is George's compared to that hotel?

Oh, you'll love the Algonquin. I stayed there a few years ago. It's like being at home, cat and all.

So if I'm staying at the Algonquin on 44th, not far from Birdland, I understand. What are some good eating places from there that wouldn't be too extremely expensive?

The Edison Cafe is an experience and has the best soup... it's in the Hotel Edison or is it Edison Hotel, on 47th and Broadway. There is also a diner just West of the Algonquin. It's just a diner, but was reasonably priced. I had breakfast there nearly every day that I stayed at the Algonquin.

Of course, just for fun you may want to dine in the room with the Algonquin Round Table. It was cool just to be there

In the late 1930s a rather disheveled feline wandered into the hotel searching for food and shelter. Ever the quintessential host, owner Frank Case welcomed the furry traveler into the Algonquin and a tradition was born.

Matilda, the current resident, is very popular with our guests. She has the run of the house (except in dining areas and kitchen) but prefers to oversee the comings and goings of the many guests who cross her threshold.

Matilda receives mail weekly from friends around the world and has been the subject of countless stories. On one occasion, when her collar was stolen, the "Algonquin Cat-Burglary" was the talk of the town.

Each year Matilda is given a birthday party, as befits a New York celebrity. A memorable one occurred in 2002 when, while celebrating her seventh birthday with 150 of her closest friends, she jumped on her cake and ran out of the room, leaving a trail of paw prints.

Cat fanciers may contact Matilda directly at matildaalgonquincat@algonquinhotel.com.

The Westcott House

a recently-restored Frank Lloyd Wright home in Springfield, OH.

Field trip!
