My parents invited me here for lunch today (it’s in Ebensburg). It was pretty good! I got a ginormous club sandwich, which will also be serving as tomorrow’s lunch.

I really enjoyed watching this series again. Besides the great stars of the show (Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves, Wendie Malick, and Betty White), practically every episode had a guest star (mostly from TV, but there were some others as well, like Huey Lewis). And, we’re talking every generation–from Bob Newhart and Carl Reiner to Joe Jonas and Jennifer Love Hewitt and everyone in between. It was worth watching just for that. And there were guest stars from the former shows of the stars (e.g. One Day at a Time, Just Shoot Me, Frasier, The Mary Tyler Moore Show). This was a who’s who in television, that’s for sure. And, how great is Betty White? She was in her 90s when this was filmed. Incredible.
This was a solid sitcom. You don’t see many of those these days.
My rating: 3.5/5

I saw this was leaving Netflix soon so I figured I’d give it another watch. I saw it when it originally came out in the 90s and when Oliver Stone was at his peak. I remember liking it then, but not so much this time around. The special effects looked dated and the story was kind of ridiculous. Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis were great, though.
My rating: 3/5
a golden gathering
I took Tilly to this again. The event was held yesterday. She hates going, but I love it, so too bad for her! I didn’t really take any photos, but WPXI was there and they have a nice slideshow on their website. You can even see part of us in the 5th photo! And, later on in one of the group shots, too! And, proving there’s an exception to every rule, some lady’s golden was growling and snapping at all of the other dogs. She eventually removed the dog from the situation, but that was surprising to see.

This was a pretty good one. It was a bit different from her other stories. In this one, Kinsey was doing some free research for someone and then got wrapped up in the search for the loot from a 40-year-old bank robbery. Grafton is an excellent writer. All of her stories are compelling and the way she writes is so descriptive. Love it!
My rating: 3.5/5
