Tuesday night I had another one of those experiences where the wine makes up for the food. I made lemon chicken (for the first time) for a friend. It was edible, but I wouldn't use the recipe as it was written again. However, the 2006 ZD Chardonnay was such a great wine, and such a great pairing, that I was quite happy with myself. Definitely ( Read more... )

Surely they could have shaved 20 minutes off the movie to keep it at three hours? It got to be a bit long in the end. But I did enjoy it.

Fantasy Island was a good show. Why do we not have the Aaron Spelling channel?

I list "perspective" as one of my interests. Themes may vary, but the dramatic device employed on Boston Legal is always perspective. And every season gets better, more meaningful. A brilliant show.

Jeeze. No choice but to watch Big Brother and I hate it and myself for it.

24 is a bit silly these days, too, isn't it?

Everybody Loves Raymond, however, is all good. I never thought I'd say that. But now that I'm married, I recognize it as the reality of love.

I don't know anyone like that. I mean, there's really nothing wrong with them, but they live in a different world and that helps boost the ( Read more... )

Boston Legal is still my favorite, but I now can see the appeal of Ugly Betty.

Boston Legal has everything I see in life.

OK, just a brief note. I find it comforting, if not a big odd, that the two finalists were the ethnic minorities -- and not even UK nationals! Still, I was hoping Jermaine Jackson would win. He's said nothing bad the whole series, has been a total sweetheart, saw the best in everyone, and only spread love, peace, and kindness. I can't help ( Read more... )

My line to work was down today. It took almost an extra hour for me to take overlands all the way around the city. Heh, but the party last night meant no one was in when I got there. The damned thing was also out in the evening. Caught a ride into town and took a bus and another line home. Took just as long. I'll get my refund for both ( Read more... )
