Dolt Handyman - I think that was the name of one of Henry Willson's clients.

Hello Everyone:

BK played the role of Howard, WHAT A CUTIE!

Sure sounds like it! I would love to see an actual list of every actor and actress Willson represented.

And my Criterion disc of THE UNINVITED arrived today! I love this film.

Before or after Henry renamed him?

TOD:

Sweet and Sour tongue (as eaten in NYC deli called??)

We don't have real delis in Salem, Oregon, 97301 (or any of the other Salem zip codes).

I don't think that I've ever been in a "real" deli, and I'm pretty sure that there aren't any in the Olympia-Lacey-Tumwater area. There is, however, an authentic German deli, but that's not the same thing.

Yesterday, it truly felt like Fall for the first time this year although it was only in the low 70s. Today, we have some fog. When I was driving in, it swirled around my car. Now, it's hovering at a greater altitude....but seems much closer to Lake Merritt, across the street from my office building. Here is a 10:30 a.m. snapshot of same:

That's a pretty cool picture, Ron.

The full title was going to be: "Yesterday the handyman opened it back up and continues to work on the area today", but those chapters have not been written yet.

Sorry folks, but it is all DR Elmore's influence.

TOD, continued--

I already echoed DR ArnoldMBrockman in saying pastrami on rye at the Carnegie Deli, and that certainly is the #1 staple. But that's not to say I don't love a Reuben or a corned beef, or corned beef hash with an egg (another meal to die for at the Carnegie), and I love the slaw and the half sour pickles, and so much else. So. Much. Else.

I'm usually a purist when it comes to having the pastrami with only mustard, but I look forward to trying it BK's way at Langer's or wherever in L.A., with the slaw and Russian dressing. I'm very much a proponent of the addition of slaw to certain sandwiches (some southern BBQ being another example of where it works so well you never want to stop shoveling the stuff into your mouth).

TOD-related question:

Does anyone remember Reuben's (restaurant) when it was on (I think) East 58th Street, maybe in the block east of Fifth Ave.? I was only there on a few visits to NYC in the early '70s. It made a huge impression on me and I was so sorry years later to find it was no longer around, or - I forget now - maybe only in changed form in another location?

Jane · « **Reply #79 on:** October 22, 2013, 03:27:52 PM »

My favorite deli food, which sadly is difficult to find anymore, is a good crisp New Kosher Pickle.

I don't know Reuben's. I miss the Chock Full O' Nuts places. They had great shrimp salad sandwiches.

Tomorrow would be a perfect day for our hiking group to go to Mt. Ashland. It might also be our last chance to do so before winter. I guessed correctly that our, no so, fearless leader would decide to stay close to home. We are going to the lake and it appears it will be a short walk. I will extend mine by walking to the lake to meet up with them

Keith will stay home with the handyman and mow the lawn, pick up leaves, etc.

DR Elmore, thanks for the good wishes. The massage did make me feel a lot better. I really like the trigger point work that releases the knots in the muscles. I had a lot of them. I'm still sore, but nothing like I was before. We don't have band rehearsal this week and I don't have any other evening events, so I'm going to be able to rest in the evenings. I'm sure that will help
