That kind of media is fine and interesting. The other kind of media is reprehensible and disgusting, not necessarily in that order.

I had a turkey sandwich for lunch, Juliana had the cabbage soup with four count them four meat balls (she ate all four - that girl can handle her balls), and we shared onion rings and ranch dressing. Normally, even sharing I can go through two or three cups of ranch dressing, but I was good today and didn't even use half a cup.

The sky is really ominous - quite black in certain sections.

Well, it's nightime - you were expecting a light sky?

My goodness, I took us to page eight, no mean feat. How about mean feet? Have you ever been confronted with mean feet?

I'm watching Der Unheimliche Monch, which is not about the Heimlich maneuver, it's about a Sinister Monk.

Oh, and I was wrong about Cy Endfield being one of the directors - it's Cyril Frankel. That DVD is very interesting - most of the cast is, in fact, English, including Stewart Granger and Susan Hampshire, yet it's one of the films in German only with no subs or dubs. Odd. Strange. Eerie (OSE, in Internet lingo).

Can say I have but I do know when my nose runs, my feet smell.

I don't think I've ever been is sweat lodge either. I don't know if I would pass out or not.

I'm hoping that if rain is due that it plays itself out tonight so that the gardeners can come tomorrow and do their thing. One interesting benefit of the rain: There were several planters in the yard, all filled with seemingly dead plants. The rain has resuscitated them and they are now green and blooming.

I still haven't satisfied my chocolate urge from last night. I want go out and have a hot chocolate with obscene amounts of whipped cream -- but I have to wait for a messenger to show up with a check. Check or chocolate? Difficult but obvious.

Danise · « **Reply #221 on:** January 03, 2005, 05:33:29 PM »

Chocolate. That gets my vote.

The first time I did one I was sure I was going to pass out, but I think that that is part of the process all first-timers go through. Eventually, it's like sitting in a sauna except there's a lot of smoke.

Danise · « **Reply #223 on:** January 03, 2005, 05:40:10 PM »

I get enough smoke from my Mom. She fills the whole house up with it with her habit so a sweat lodge would NOT be the place for me.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #224 on:** January 03, 2005, 05:40:40 PM »

Maybe the check will be made of chocolate. The Chocolate Check--sounds like an Anne Tyler book title.

I'm going to go watch one of my newly arrived Dean Martin Show DVDs.

A chocolate check. Melts in your hand not in your bank account?

I've had bubble gum checks but never a chocolate check.

I have to sign off now. You guys take care. I will be back tomorrow night.

Have a good evening.

I've had canceled check. It tastes like crow.

The check has arrived. Shortly, I'm going out to drink copious amounts of hot chocolate with obscene portions of whipped cream. The only question is - should I have chocolate syrup on the whipped cream or would that be overkill?

Meant to mention that I, too, saw film adaptation of THE PHANTOM OF THE HOO-HA yesterday afternoon.

I thought that Schumacher's allowing so many different accents was deplorable. And I forget who mentioned Patrick Wilson's American take on the word "to" last week, but when the moment arrived, it seemed so out of place......

That was me.

And you're right. It just didn't fit with anything else going on.

What about chocolate syrup on chocolate whipped cream in the hot chocolate? Now that would be overkill!

I must say that this is the first evening in quite some time when I have no sweet tooth whatsoever. Do not crave anything sweet. Don't need to eat sweet. Isn't that neat?

Jane · « **Reply #235 on:** January 03, 2005, 06:24:54 PM »

Chocolate whipped cream doesn’t appeal to me. I also prefer marshmallows in my hot chocolate. Neither are really needed if the hot chocolate is made with sweetened steamed milk. Today I had hot cocoa Bryan gave me for Christmas along with the home made (from the candy store) marshmallow. I didn’t take the time to steam the milk but it was yummy anyway.

Jane · « **Reply #236 on:** January 03, 2005, 06:30:20 PM »

Darn now I want some chocolate.

I’m off with chocolate pieces to cuddle on the bed with Echo and watch some ice skating.

Goodnight.

Joey · « **Reply #237 on:** January 03, 2005, 06:34:48 PM »

That sounds really good! I believe I am off to go steam some milk and find the cocoa powder!!! We have mini-marshmallows too.

I actually have some dark chocolate i might melt in with it.

bk · « **Reply #238 on:** January 03, 2005, 06:37:13 PM »

Steam some milk? That's a little steamy for this here site, don't you think?

I just don't have a sweet tooth, that's the entire fact of the matter. But I do think the prospect of a haineshisway.com wedding is neat. I don't believe dear reader Jane shared her thoughts on this - unless I missed them, I believe dear reader Jane just skipped right over all those postings.

Today's Variety has quiet a few full page ad tributes to Jerry Orbach. The most moving one, IMO, is on the back cover, from Dick Wolf, the producer of Law and Order.
It looks like a hand-written note and says:
Try to Remember?
Jerry - You'll never be forgotten...
Dick
