Norman Jewison has died at 97. Love many of his movies. Moonstruck may be at the top of the list. Fiddler on the Roof, In the Heat of the Night, so many good ones.

That's weird DR RON PULLIAM because the noon news said that the Indy temperature at noon was 30 degrees.

BUT freezing rain and a sn*w mix beginning at 10 p.m. tonight.

I like the films you mentioned, as well as  The Thomas Crown Affair and the movie And Justice For All. I was able to watch them film a few scenes of that one in Baltimore.

TOD:

Linguine Ai Frutti di Mare

I leave out the mussels and clams, and ask for extra 🍤 shrimp.

I may not like green sweets but green spinach fettuccine is my favorite pasta.

The first time I ever had spinach fettuccine was on a date with Keith at Andre's of Beverly Hills restaurant.  They served us each a little bowl of it with a marinara sauce.

Been thinking of San Diego. It's been about 25 years since I was there. Loved going to the beach at the Coronado Hotel, which had been used as a backdrop for one of my favorite movies about movies, The Stunt Man.

I always loved the hotel.  I kind of stayed there.  My parents stayed there and put my brother, sister, & I in a motel in the town.  From breakfast until after dinner we were at the hotel.

My sister & I shared a room while my brother was next door.  Typical of my sister, she wanted to go out late at night when we should have been going to sleep.  Never one to say no to my sister I just made enough noise so my brother heard us, came out of his room and ordered back into our room.  Since he was in charge, and he would have told on her, she listened.

I definitely ate at Andre's but I'm not sure I ever had the fettuccine.

I'm thinking about making a series of cuts in one section, but I wanted the Muse to read it the way I wrote it first.

Then it was the belated birthday meal at BJ's in Burbank. I had a lunch special - one smallish fried chicken breast in country gravy, mashed potatoes and some corn thing. It was really good. I also had a cup of clam chowder. It really wasn't that much food, but boy was I full. Then it was their famous pizzookie, chocolate chip. I could only manage half of it. I feel ever so disgusting right now.

Here’s a fun story, not written by me.

“The only real memory I have of the Beverly Hills Andre’s was one time my family was there, dining with some wealthy friends who were paying. We were waiting for the valet to bring us our car for a fee roughly equal to the cost of a complete lasagna dinner at the other Andre’s. Suddenly, about six limousines converged on the place, and official-looking men jumped out and began clearing the way for the passenger from one. It was Robert Kennedy. I waved to him and he waved back.”
