That is awful, DR John G.

People calling me at the Minnesota state health exchange have to listen to an insipid Kenny G wannabe hold music. During Open Enrollment time, as the volume of calls expands, callers listen to this A LOT. It used to haunt my nightmares as I called in. I often say that the best perk of my job with the state is that, as the callers are now calling ME, I no longer have to listen to this music.

How oxymoronic to include Kenny G and music in the same sentence.

Enjoyed reading about the turkey dinners, etc!

I shall have my Bob Evans special around noon o'clock.

I have decided that my favorite BK appearance on The Partridge Family is as Marvin in The Partridge Papers.

His hair was very LONG!

Bob Evans seems like another one of those places you'd trust with a Thanksgiving dinner, given their general type of foodstuffs.

I think the closest ones to me are still central PA. I always wish they'd expand a little farther east. On the other hand, if they did, I'd be the one expanding on their Sausage Gravy & Biscuits.

According to their website, there is not a Bob Evans within 100 miles of me.

There are two Golden Corrals nearby. However, the dining rooms are not open. Takeout only.

Today, due my shopping over-exuberance, we will be roasting more brussels sprouts and root vegetables.

And... pie? For breakfast? Why not!

Why not, indeed.

Just heard from another friend who had pie for breakfast.

T.O.D.

I see that 1917 is now available on one of the premium channels, so I'll probably watch that this weekend.

Yesterday, I started writing a new play for THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS series.

It will be the 34th in the collection.

One of the plays is set for a run in January-February.

Another is being set up for a run in the UK.

I climbed the Big Ladder several times this morning and survived. The cats have cat food within easy reach for the next month.

I can't think of anything less appealing than going to BestBuy on Black Friday. But that's just me.

George you might want to rethink this and not go in if it is packed.

Tonight is my scheduled appointment with the H&G that BK watched.

This is also the day that I welcome Christmas and other holiday music into the house. I'm one of those for which Thanksgiving is the kickoff, but Thanksgiving Day isn't quite it yet. It's the day after that "my" season begins.

I have always been that way. Now we really don't do anything for any of the holidays.

and odd direction from Paul Dano.

You've heard of the Elf on a Shelf?

Welcome to Dano on my Drano!

I was a seasonal worker at Barnes and Noble one year. I had to hear the Elf on a Shelf jingle four times an hour for every hour of my shift. I think such torture goes against the rules of the Geneva Convention.

Groan!

I've got a rerun of The Young and the Listless on in the background, and they're singing, not very well. One actor just articulately sang:
Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy,
It's not your style;
You'll look so good that you'll be glad you de-
Cided to smile.
instead of
You'll look so good that you'll be glad ja de-
Cided to smile.

I hate it when dumbass singers deliberately ruin the rhyme.

I must pay some bills and post them on Monday.

For a late breakfast (I only just now began to be hungry), I just had pie, and a tiny bit of stuffing and cranberry sauce.

John G. · « **Reply #55 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:52:44 AM »

I have a pie sheet in the fridge that needs using. Ah, the possibilities.

John G. · « **Reply #56 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:55:44 AM »

Maybe orange chiffon pie.

John G. · « **Reply #57 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:56:10 AM »

I’d like to use what I have on hand.

John G. · « **Reply #58 on:** November 27, 2020, 11:00:15 AM »

Maybe something with blueberries.
