Watching the Jack Smith hearing. Some of these MAGA Rethuglicans like Brandon Gill and that Issa ass from California are like little rabid dogs. I would love to see them taken behind the barn and shot.

I was debating which word would be my fourth guess, but I should've picked the other word which was my fifth and correct guess. ::)

That is frustrating, but still Good.

Iris sent me the review. Not sure why the theater hadn't sent it out but I intend to find out. It's a wonderful rave and she really "got" the show.

Nice, and congratulations.

Yesterday I asked my brother Kent for a favor.

He came by and took the old five year old battery out of Petey the PT Cruiser....took it over to AutoZone and bought a new three-year battery for $204.

He then put it back into Petey and now once again I have TWO cars!

Excellent.

By the way, I don't know if DR singdaw or anyone else is aware of the latest disastrous news from Connecticut. As of last week, maybe two weeks ago, the Sycamore Drive-In IS NO MORE. It's unthinkable. The restaurant (or the lease to operate there, it's all kind of murky) was bought by the owner of another restaurant in Bethel, and the makeover has begun. There are a lot of details to unpack, but America has lost one of its primo mid-century food spots that still had car hop service, home to the most delicious "smash burgers" for half a century before anyone invented the term. And the most delicious homemade root beer. All of it. Gone. Just like that.

My condolences to you.

That seems to be all of the nominations.

Thank you for listing them.  It was much easier for me to read.

The first episode of the new season (after a nine or ten year hiatus since season 1) of The Night Manager, starring Tom Hiddleston and Olivia Coleman, felt very chockfull of information.  We're thinking we'll try watching episode 1 again before proceeding to episode 2.

We plan on watching this.

We're under that storm watch, too. And the freeze that accompanies it. Our local guy just pointed out how that storm's projected mass reaches from Arizona to New England.

Coincidentally (like, a day or two before the news broke), I bought an 8-pack of Nathan's "bun size" hot dogs, and, in a moment of insanity (these things happen), a package of what have to be the SHITTIEST hot dog buns ever created. Store brand. They hold up to, literally, nothing. They just manage to get a few bites of flavor up to my pie hole before disintegrating. Next time I'm going for whichever ones look to be the BEST. If I can find anything close to the Vienna poppy seed buns (cf. BK's reference to same), I'll get those. They may or may not be carried here, but I'll try.

Oh, my goodness! :o

From what I can tell the storm is expected to hit a number of states.  Our HHW New York people, what are you expecting.  DR Kevin, I believe you are also watching the weather, and probably DR Iris.  Both of my children are in the zone.  Have I missed anyone?

Of course who knows what will change before the actual storm hits.

TOD: My first hot dog was probably from Howard Johnson's. My favorites are Detroit Coney Island. We grew up with Lafayette in our house but I had American for the first time last year and it was really good too. I'm heading back to Detroit in April, so I'll have to revisit Lafayette to see if my taste memory matches the current state of things.

That's right, totally shut out. And that was the only new 2025 film we saw this year. We wanted to see several others but they didn't play in theaters near us, or they did for one weekend when we were busy with other things.

I don’t know when my first hot dog was. I still eat them at Costco.

I love a ballpark dog with mustard and onion sauce. I also love a Chicago dog right down to the celery seed.

My one surprise was no nomination for Amanda Seyfried. I guess they weren’t going to nominate two lead performers in musicals.
