I’m afraid that Cleese has devolved into an upper class twit.

I was rewatching the Fishin’ Musician with The Plasmatics the other day. Glamping with Wendy O!

Oh yeah, “product guys” always start by laying off engineers. Also a great way to improve quality. Sure.

Off topic, but has anyone ever looked more British than Graham Hill? To me he always looked like his just landed his Spitfire and was on his way for a cuppa.

The claimed low salt level of MD’s fries does not match my experiences, but it could be up to the variability of the employees doing the salting. 

The CNBC show wasn’t great anyway. It was a car show for people who weren’t car enthusiasts. The real deal is his YouTube channel.

The Jack In The Box closest to me has a Coke Freestyle offering, but trying to order even a lime flavored Coke in the drive-thru can be an exercise in frustration.

I didn’t realize that Giordano’s was a chain now, but I haven’t been to Chicago since 1985. A few things might have changed since the days when baby me was hopping the train from the North Chicago Navy base down to the big city. 

Fully agree with Johnson here. “Any Old Port In A Storm” is brilliant. The final scene is wonderful. You haven’t quite captured the plot, though, as Pleasence kills his brother because he’s going to sell the family winery.

According to this, almost nobody lives in some of the tallest high rises.

No smells in the luxury high rises. Each unit spans a floor (or two).

He was a close friend of Julia Child and that’s says it all.

“We’re coming from an irrational time of overspending with limited focus on return on investment,” Wiedenfels says, adding that 2023 is about “relaunching and building.”

Not every show needs a season long overarching plot. On procedurals like this it’s usually some tacked on, tired conspiracy plot or a lame supposedly “boss level” baddie that takes time away from character development and making an actually interesting main plot.

Once again “searched for” ≠ “popular” . When will this crap ever stop? 

The news isn’t that he can’t get a show now, given what he has shown himself to be, but that somehow his snake oil pushing show stayed on the air for 13 seasons. What a quack.

“The tragedy of the case is that Ms. Holmes is brilliant,”

How do you define “offroad”? Nobody is taking it to Moab, but plenty of people take these things up to the mountains via unmaintained two tracks.

Back in the days when I had to deposit an actual physical paycheck, the nearest place to do so was inside a Safeway so I’d do the deposit and have some of the spicy Gen. Tso’s chicken. Fairly tasty, for the price. I have no idea how it is now after Albertsons gobbled them up.
