Congratulations, George, on your new millstone!


Thanks, Freddie!

Cilla was just on a CNN report which ran a few minutes ago. 

She seems to be a favorite go-to person of CNN's reporter/anchor John King, the same newsperson who interviewed her during the primaries.

Hmmm.

If anyone is curious to see her with John King

Cilla is at 3:43 for about a minute, in the video at this link.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something like that only happens two or three times in a person's life!

I swear, the heat has really gotten to me today. Once again, I thought I'd posted one of the many times I was up.

I got up before eleven, answered e-mails spent an hour choosing songs, which has become easier since I decided what I was going to call the show.

Then I ordered from a Chinese place that had mostly excellent reviews on Yelp, which proves once again that no one on Yelp has a clew about Chinese food. I ordered the small portion of orange chicken - their description uses the word CRISPY prominently. I added, "Extra crispy, please." I also ordered the appetizer of popcorn chicken.

Crispy. Extra crispy. Do words have no meaning anymore? What i got was the opposite of crispy - no crispy - anti-crispy - then we add completely flavorless to that and I ate about four or five pieces before depositing it in the trash.

Then the popcorn chicken. The seasoning was fine (salt and pepper) but it was like eating seasoned erasers. I had about eight small pieces before it joined the anti-crispy orange chicken in the trash. What a waste of a meal and money. And it wasn't enough food for even halff a meal, so I fear I'm gonna have to order something else soon.

Happily, I had a couple of pieces of See's candy here and those helped. Also, I had nice fortunes from the two fortune cookies. They're not gonna be thrilled with the Yelp review but the point of Yelp reviews is to be truthful and that is what I intend to be, in my own light-hearted way.

CRISPY - it spells a word. And that word has a meaning and the meaning is not squishy and gross.

That's too bad, BK.  A week ago Friday, I went to the local Eagan's and ordered a Bacon Burger, and the bacon was floppy and chewy.

I hate bacon that's either floppy or chewy and this was both! :P

Well, I went back this past Friday (I will always go back to Eagan's) and specifically asked for crispy bacon and they made it very crispy...and it wasn't burnt either!  It was quite delish!
