We do have a tartar sauce I like. I think it's just a store brand that, for me, hits the right balance. We just had it recently with the Gorton's popcorn shrimp.

BK, if you can't find anything good worth watching, maybe you should return to the Ghibli films. I really enjoyed reading your commentary on those.

ChasSmith, Alexa played Santa Fe from Newsies last night. It seemed like too many modulations and not enough melody. Plus, the lyrics were dreary.

Many people don't know that in the initial draft, the penultimate Hello, Dolly! song was titled "So Long, Dreary."

McDonald's filet-o-fish are really good when they're really good and not so hot when they're not. I'd say I've had mostly good luck with them and they do have the best tartar sauce of any chain. Best tartar sauce in a restaurant is Smokehouse. I've had two and a half hours of sleep so far, but am NOT up yet :)

Ego and Super-Ego walk into a bar.

The bartender says, "I'm going to need to see some ID."

If/when you get your next one, I think the plastic laundry hamper is a great idea.

Thanks, everyone, we are very happy to be DONE with the HWS Estate.

Once I get the last bank statement - since my aunt finally cashed her check at the beginning of this month - the balance will be zero.  And I can put everything away in a drawer and forget about it.

Jessica at Huntington Bank says she has pushed to button to close the account and the final statement should be arriving soon.

MR BK if you want to stay awake I suggest you watch Le Bonheur.....a French film from France.

I watched it on TCM this week and it is most excellent.  It is not a thriller....well I'm not sure what I would call it.....sort of a romance....anyway.....highly recommended by the likes of me.

DR GEORGE I love your new autographed LP!

I was noted yesterday and as Hayley Mills would say:  It is scathingly brilliant.

We have temps in the 60's today so the windows are open and it's very pleasant.

Public Service Announcement:

WalMart is experiencing a bag shortage!  It is recommended that you take your own if you plan on shopping.

I think of course this is just a plan to make us start paying for our bags.

AND I am surprised it was not mentioned by Pres. JoeBiden in his speech last week.

Thanks! I'm very happy the estate is now settled and I did not have to send you the cake with a file in it.

 I used to make my own tartar sauce until we stopped cooking fish at home.

What brand is it?
