Well, I really need to go to bed now.  I have to be at a meeting at 8:30 this morning and I don't want to miss it.  So, good night, Tom and anyone else lurking out there in the dark!

Have a good day, all!

Of course anything Godiva makes is amazing and wonderful and when I am lucky enough to get a box I take my time and savor one chocolate a day or every other day to make it last

I very much like those round chocolates with the hazelnut in the center of a chocolate ganache surrounded by a thin wafer, coated in chocolate and covered with crushed hazelnuts ... I can't think of the name of them at the moment.

I am sure Jane hates them

From Yesterday

FJL posted the NY Times article how midtown has gotten back to normal now that all the Trumps are at the White House.

The article failed to mention what will happen once he's out of the WH. He has Secret service protection for the rest of his life as does his wife and the kid up to a certain age. So if he moves back to the tower the same problem will occur all over again.

Cadbury flake is wonderful but much less accessible and much more expensive since Hershey managed to get the import banned .  Result?  I no longer buy Hershey products

I loved Almond Joy as a kid because you got both coconut and nuts together.

Back in 2001, I co-wrote a movie for Roger Corman, RAPTOR, which was directed by  Jim Wynorski, a delightful fellow who specialized in directing movies that utilized previously shot action footage.

In the case of RAPTOR, we used dinosaur footage from three CARNOSAUR movies that Corman had made previously.  We even brought in a couple of actors who had been dinosaur food in those CARNOSAUR  films to shoot additional scenes.

What can I tell you?  A paycheck is a paycheck.

Interestingly, the score for RAPTOR is credited to Oscar-winner James Horner (TITANIC).  I'm not sure what earlier Corman film that was taken from.

Also of interest: When I do an autograph show, I get a lot of people who ask me to sign their DVDs of RAPTOR.

TOD:

I like all kinds of Hershey bars.

Also, even though they are not bars, M&Ms.

Raisinets have been a favorite since just about forever.  In my early moviegoing days, in the chocolate department it would either be Milk Duds (which I find horrible now) or Raisinets.  The last Raisinets I had were a box of the dark chocolate ones back around Christmas.  Yum.

Well, peoples, I have such an insanely full day ahead of me that I must wish you all well and take my leave till late tonight.

This evening is the rehearsal with Tomie dePaola and Mother Dolores Hart.  I must finish preparing my book and get the keyboard ready to take up and use there the rest of the week.  I had wanted to take the easy to carry one, but I need a couple of functions that only the more sophisticated ones have so the heavy unwieldy one it shall be.
