Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of pretzels, and now it is time for you to post until the pretzelesque cows come home.

And the word of the day is: PRELAPSARIAN!

First post after BK!

Tom, last night, instead of the breakfast burritos that ChasSmith mentioned, I got some Boca burgers and Boca Chik'n patties.

Jane · « **Reply #5 on:** September 22, 2016, 12:55:46 AM »

I have never had the patties. I intensely dislike Becca burgers.

A former dear reader made me eat a fershluganah Boca burger - totally grotesque.

I've had them before (but it's been quite a while) and I liked them. I've never had the chik'n patties, but I have some cheese and an opened jar of spaghetti sauce that I need to use...and I figured that they could used for a poor man's chicken parmesan.

Good night!

Crazy dreams, in which I created a couple of interesting geographical locations near here while everything going on in them was completely absurd. But interesting.

I could not get to sleep until nearly 3:00am.

I hope I can stay awake at City Center today. Joshie called me yesterday about a quagmire in "Getting To Know You" that I suspect was merely a panic attack. His work is quite excellent.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #17 on:** September 22, 2016, 05:49:23 AM »

He has a commitment at 2:30, so it will not be a long day at City Center.

Last night I turned the TV on to drift off to sleep by, and caught this 1963 travelogue short on TCM called "Stopover in Hollywood". These things are always a hoot, often execrable, but usually invaluable for their brief capture of a time and place.

BK has probably seen this one a million times, I know I have a few times, but I mention it anyway because its all too brief shots of "Hollywood" (which here might as well mean all of Southern California) are priceless, especially a quick pan across Grauman's Chinese during the roadshow engagement of WEST SIDE STORY. A glimpse of Marineland when it was practically a glamour spot in some aspects is equally compelling.

There were a few other good ones, and it's well worth the sixteen minutes of "storytelling" and narration dreck to see these glimpses of a magical past.

We watched 2 of the new TV series last night.

1. DESIGNATED SURVIVOR, which we liked. It's well done. However, if it's a success, I'm not quite sure how long they can sustain the basic premise before it becomes another THE WEST WING.

2. BULL, which was a mess. Too busy, too boring, too unbelievable. This one will fade fast.

May your morning be Boca burger-free.

TOD:

I love Chex mix, especially the homemade variety with extra butter and some heat.
Anything salty
Wasabi peas
Pretzels (esp. Chocolate-covered)
Chicken in a Biscuit, which I enjoyed Saturday in between margaritas

Thursday morning greetings! Richard and I enjoyed hearing Susan Eisenhower speak about "strategic leadership" last night. Her lecture was part of the same series in which DR Elmore spoke last October. Next month's speaker is David McCullough.

McCullough should be fascinating right before the election.

Not when I was trying to go back to sleep. I have now.
