    I like fish and chips. In the south, there are some very good fish and chip fast food restaurants.

    Years ago, I visited Maine and went to one of the restaurants that appeared on the Food Network show, "Diners, Drive Ins and Dives." It was a nice place. I got fish and chips and it was really good.

    ...in anticipation of that Country Fried Steak dinner at Steer & Stein tonight.

    Of course, I'll have a 32-oz Bud on hand for the occasion, and Wife will have her Zinfandel!

    Oh yeah...the Piano Tuner comes tomorrow...my Grand will sound Grand once more!

    DAS LEBEN IST GUT!

    Tonight we're visiting our old friend Steer & Stein again, where I'll subpoena a Chicken Teriyaki Dinner.

    I now relinquish my minutes to Senator Judith Pollner, who will swear in a Sirloin Tri-Tip.

    A good steak would be great!! One day I need to quit being lazy and actually make myself one.
    I hope you and Mrs. Pollner have a great night out!

    Thanks, Bess...we did!

    A "good steak" would be great, if you could cut and chew it!
    I'm a large and fairly strong man, yet I can't handle a steak!
    This is why I don't order 'em!

    Judy and I dined at the celebrated Steer & Stein Steakhouse last night.

    Neither of us had Steak, but I enjoyed a nice conversation in Spanish with Juan, our favorite waiter.

    Since the Pandemic has caused our favorite restaurants to be closed, I have lost over 10 pounds from not enjoying those high-calorie meals with a 32-oz. pitcher of Beer to wash it down!

    Come on, Steer & Stein and Appleby's...throw open those doors again!

    I'm at my highest weight ever. Been here once before, and trips to the gym fixed it right up. That was easily 15 years ago, I'm older now, and there are no gyms here in the country. Plus I just bought a pasta machine.

    I can see lots of stuff in my future...except my feet. Don't know when I'll see them again.

    I absolutely enjoy them, Thomas!;)

    She works, so instead of preparing a big supper, she gives me a choice of Hungry Man dinners, which I enjoy while sipping on a Rum & Coke on the rocks.

    I have my weekday dinners in my bedroom, served on a board across the arms of my recliner. while watching Classic Movies on TCM.

    On weekends, we have dinner together at the kitchen or dining room table.

    Yup yup yup!

    That's really good to hear, Hal. So actually no reason for you to lose weight then?;)
