NYC is not allowing vacation, sick, personal time for police officers unless they write more tickets.

Wonderful morale booster! (sarcasm)

No no no, young padawan. This is how you indicate sarcasm


Wonderful moral booster.

Spoiler

You're welcome.

Date night dinner, at Gus & Guido's.

Fiesty feta dip with pita crisps:


Chicken souvlaki platter - minus the tomatoes on my salad:

And another angle:


Hubby's chicken parm:


As you can see, I ate all my veggies:


So, I SHOULD get this:

But sadly, they were out of cheesecake.

FYI - We have been home for less than 10 mins, and Son #2 has polished off all the leftovers.

I don't blame him it all looks so delicious. You take the best pictures of food.

By the way guys, there is a show on Sundays on ABC called Galavant that is just hilarious. It's not everyone's cup of tea (@FutureCEO ), but I think some of you might like it. I think it's reminiscent of Monty Python.

Just saw a commercial for the upcoming film 50 Shades of Grey.
Didn't read the book ... certainly not going to watch the movie.

Pretty sure Jian Ghomeshi won't be watching either.

Pretty sure that joke is only hilarious if you're Canadian.

This is not fair...for everyone else...

I liked this anyways...even though I didn't get it.

I watched the first one last week and liked it a lot. Got the one from tonight on the DVR.

Alan Menken does the music for it.

Yup.

Had to look up who that even was.

Finally get to go to a hockey game this season on Tuesday. The Sens are coming to town...which means I get to sing the Canadian National Anthem.

I actually thought it was funny in certain spots. I didn't watch it today though and forgot to tape it. You have to remember Monty Python is from England.

I sometimes sing the Canadian National Anthem randomly. The American National Anthem is way too overplayed. But Viva la Canada.

I am a fan of both. Even the other verses of the Star Spangled Banner that most people do not know.

speaking of fireworks, anyone seen the youtube videos of the epcot ones? almost looks like the third world war during the finale.. insane!!

As for me, I just recently rewatched IP MAN.
Really good movie about kung fu based on the life of YIP MAN ( Yip Kai-man)

Some of the YouTubes are amazing, the videos have come a long way. It still doesn't do justice to New Years or the Forth of July. I've seen them both at Epcot and the MK. My yearly favorites are NYE at the MK and the 4th at Epcot.
Nothing, nothing has compared to ringing in the new millennium at Epcot. That day was beyond surreal.

The other attractions that video no matter how well done can do justice to is the Castle Christmas lighting, Osborne Lights or the projection on the castle. The YouTubes give a good presentation but still lack the sparkle.

Dang! I really wanted that cheesecake!

 

[Gabe1]

Now, don't break this one, like your previous "favorite" mug!!

Years ago I had a favorite mug. It was blue and white with some cartoon thing on it from Hallmark I was given by someone as a gift. Had nothing visual. It had a great handle, a good lip to the mug and was made out of a good quality crockery so coffee stayed warmer longer and it micro'd well too.

I dropped it putting it into the dishwasher and put a little chip right where I'd sip. I tried to use my other hand, or sip around it. Then it lived in the cupboard. Finally it hit the garbage after mourning period was over. About 6 months ago I accidentally found another mug I really like. The first one I use out of the dishwasher with the same qualities. Bottom Left.

Good luck Monday @MOXOMUMD! Go Ohio State!

Ohio State was in my DDs top 4 for Universities. I don't know if she would have received a better education, all top schools but she would have had a better set of sports teams.

 

[Gabe1]

Talking of scary movies......did I mention I cannot watch this one?

Why?
