Topic of the Day: I do not know from El Pollo Loco. The nearest one is in Kent, Washington, and I've never been to one. $:-\$

I slept well. Whatever mental derangement that made me believe 6:00 to 8:00 PM was a morning tgimespanm clearly hit again last night. This morning, instead of ringing at 5:30AM, the alarm was set for 4:30. The cats and I were not amused. So, I reset the alatm and cuddled with Annabelle for an hour. It was a very cold night, and she was very happy to be buried in a pile of blankets.

DR George, thanks for the Follies link. Joshie assisted Jonathan Tunick on the orchestrations for that. Janie Dee plays Phyllis. In 2022, when I thought we had the money to record Jubilee, I cast her as the Queen. The cast at that time was as follows:
The King . . . . Nickolas Grace
The Queen . . Janie Dee
The Prince . . Nadim Maaman
The Princess . . . Annalene Beechey
Lord Wyndham . . John Molloy
Mowgli (Johnny Weissmuller) . . Jason Graae
Eva Standing (Elsa Maxwell) . . Kim Criswell
Karen O'Kane (Ginger Rogers) Scarlett Strallen
Eric Dare (Noël Coward( . . Bryce Pinkham

I'd make a few changes if we were casting it now.

DR Rodzinski, I never knew Ricky Nelson recorded "Violets of Dawn"! That's by Eric Anderson, whose "Thirsty Boots" is one of my all-time favorite songs. I just listened to Nelson's recording. It's really good!

As mistakes go, though, that's not a really bad one. That's got to happen for many people (I hope). I know I've accidentally scheduled 7 to 9 A.M. the next day deliveries thinking they were for 7 to 9 P.M. while placing the order - and only noticed when I got the confirmation email.

The site wasn't functioning for the five minutes or so I was just trying to log in. Seems okay now.

EDIT: Seems it's not working for me only on Chrome, and only suddenly this morning. It's fine on Safari. I have to go back and forth with browsers quite often. Absolutely maddening.

TOD

Following years of ignoring it, I tried El Pollo Loco in 1987, liked it, and did takeout now and then over the next couple of years. I had moved to West Hollywood and went to the one in the then-rebuilt block at Sunset and La Brea, right on the corner. (Hard to believe, then and now, that that was the classic Tiny Naylor's spot. On Google Maps, their building is now standing vacant.) To my knowledge there are none around here, but I haven't looked it up.

Like DR Laura, I thought it was delicious. I don't remember a lot about it now, except for being especially crazy about their salsa which I dumped on everything.

Yes, I'm frequently bad about remembering to make sure the AM and PM are correct when setting something. It's a thing.

Back to El Pollo Loco, I wonder why Sunset and La Brea would have stopped working for them as a location, and how long ago that happened. The Google street view of it being vacant is dated Sept 2025.

Today is Kristi's birthday* and I got stuff to do, so that's it for me for now. Later!

*The Andromeda Strain film starts with an opening caption of February 5, 1971, her birth year and everything, a thing she's always gotten a kick out of.

Happy Birthday to Kristi!

Great notes on many subjects.

I enjoyed CC on SNL and in a couple of movies....but he's not much fun to watch anymore.....for me.

Jrand75 · « **Reply #23 on:** **Today** at 06:31:52 AM »

It's like ABC that keeps trying to make Joel McHale happen.

He was the perfect host for Talk Soup all those years ago.

Since then....not so much....for me. And his toupee couldn't be more obvious - or maybe it's a transplant.

I enjoyed reading about Muse Margaret's comments on the new FINISHED book.
