    Westworld - not loving it yet

    I know this is a new hot show with lots of buzz, and I'm subscribing to HBO Now over the winter so I've got the whole first season. I've watched four episodes so far, and it's just not sticking for me. I like sci-fi and fantasy content, but for some reason my mind wanders when I've got it on...

    Which favourite childhood food have you not eaten in years?

    It's a sandwich made with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff, totally a dessert lunch.

    Experiences with home ice cream maker?

    I'm considering giving a home ice cream maker as a holiday gift and would like to know about your experiences with one. What brand was it? Was it fairly easy to use? Did you enjoy the result? Did you use often? How long before the novelty wore off? I've read many reviews for Cuisinart ice...

    The Vintage Diner

    Maine has quite a few diners that would be considered vintage. The best known is Moody's Diner in Waldoboro, but it doesn't look very vintage any more, although it's been in business continuously since 1927 in the same family. Here's some photos of others. The A1 Diner in Gardiner - this...

    Rewatching Twin Peaks - funnier and not as creepy this time?

    I'm still working my way through Northern Exposure seasons as they become available through the library, but I'm also rewatching Twin Peaks on Netflix. This is the first time I've watched it since it first aired way back when. I recall being pretty creeped out and scared by some of the stuff...

    One of the important things in that announcement is that the taxable maximum has increased from $118,500 to $127,200. I'd like to see that max increase every year as a part of a plan to keep SS viable.

    New Hugh Laurie series: Chance - have you seen it?

    I see that this new series with Hugh Laurie is on Hulu, but I'm not a subscriber. If it's good, I might opt for a subscription. If you've seen it, what do you think of it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chance_(TV_series) Edited to add: I see that Clarke Peters is in the cast, and he's one of...

    Northern Exposure

    I've just picked up the NE season 1 DVD from the library. That wait time wasn't too bad, about a week. I should probably request season 2 now, which is easy to do online. I'm going to wait until this evening to start watching. It's fun when enough time has passed that you don't remember every...
