None of the panelists had much to say, except that life in Rwanda is great. They're eliminating poverty. They have a responsible government. Everything is rosie except for covid.

They ran a half-hour over time, and they threatened not to take questions from the audience.

Well, they did take a couple of questions, but they didn't like the questions. It seems a few people there wanted to know about the current treatment of Paul Rusesbagina, the hero of "Hotel Rwanda" who is being held without access to legal representation.

The Most Honorable Ambassador blathered on for about 10 minutes without saying anything except that she didn't know anything and it wasn't really anybody's business.

Then things got weird when an audience member said he was a professor and his classes had been spied on by Rwandan spies. The ambassador tried to embarrass him, but she only managed to make everyone including herself look bad.

I'm back to watching my kicking movie, Once Upon a Time in China. It's still silly fun.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Friday evening greetings!  Today I made something for tomorrow's dinner that we haven't had in a long time.  The Cincinnati Bengals have a playoff game, so we wanted something fun and easy.  I made what my mother called "Stuffed Sandwiches:"  Mix a block of grated sharp cheddar cheese, chopped black olives, and a bottle of chili sauce.  Stuff that mixture into 8 hot dog buns and wrap by pairs in aluminum foil.  Chill overnight, then bake (wrapped) in a 375o oven until the cheese is melty (maybe 20-25 minutes).  We'll have those tomorrow around halftime with potato chips and baby carrots.



How big a block of cheese?  A pound block?  And what exactly is chili sauce?  I would love to try these sandwiches.

Watched the second PBS program from Westport Country Playhouse - a cabaret program with Shoshana Bean. It was quite good.

She's from Olympia, Washington!  I never knew of her until she moved out and made it big, but a former co-worker used to know her mother. :)

To answer your question, DR JohnG,  I ordered the new "I Can Get It For You Wholesale" CD.


I didn’t even like the old recording.

The sandwiches kind of taste like pizza.  It IS a very weird-sounding combination, but it's always been a family favorite.

I'd eat it.

So would I!

And there's nothing wrong with a pizza sandwich.

When I go to Subway, I frequently get a Spicy Italian sub, but I get it with all pepperoni (and no salami) and shredded mozzarella for the cheese, and then have them add the sauce from their meatballs.

It started a half-hour late. Then it featured a half-hour video of someone who is a high-ranking Rwandan official who spoke English very poorly, but it didn't matter. What I heard was pure propaganda and not worth listening to.

Oh, my. :-\
