Blue Marble Lunch Report:
It was fantastic!
I had what they call two mini-marbles. Or what I would call two normal scoops, in a dish. Because, a middle-aged woman having a cone might look ridiculous, but frankly, I really wanted the cone!
I tasted the Chocolate Blackberry, and decided to go with it. And a scoop of the Vanilla Chip, which had some goofy name I can’t quite recall.
It was $4.25. Ok, Rob, it was a bit expensive, but the ice cream was wonderful! And as an added bonus, the counter guy had no attitude, he was just plain nice. And even though I’m generally against those silly tip jars, I dumped a few coins in there.
I barely watch movies at all. They don’t usually keep my attention for very long. Also, on the few occasions I go to a theater of any kind it’s guaranteed I’ll start needing the bathroom within 5 mins of sitting down.
benson, I agree with everything you said about Million Dollar Movie. You’re forgetting a station, though: Metromedia Channel 5!!
I can’t remember which station had the series “Creature Feature”, which was the moniker used to show all the Godzilla and Mothra movies. Loved those. Couldn’t get enough.

“At least on the OT, we can escape when we wish (or so we like to think)”
But, benson, just when you think you are out, we pull you back in!
“can go to any function in NYC and do the same thing. But at least get to drink at same time.”
Pete;
You got it exactly right. Going to a serious Woody Allen film is like sitting through a NYC cocktail party without the benefit of imbibing.

As I was typing that line, I had the same thought!!!

“I kept asking myself: “how long do I want to sit here and watch neurotic people endlessly talking to each other”?”
Ummm, benson, have you ever READ the OT???
“You make me want to be a better man”
Or as Mrs C says,
“You make me want to be with a better man”
“I kept asking myself: “how long do I want to sit here and watch neurotic people endlessly talking to each other”?”
Benson, you should decline the invitation if you’re ever invited to a Shabbat dinner or a seder.
