Wienerschnitzel had a Dogs of the World promotion until just recently. One of the featured hotdogs was German inspired. I can't remember what all was on it-probably sauerkraut and maybe some sautéed onions. But the mustard they used was beer mustard. It was delicious!! I actually looked up how to make mustard. For a small jar it's not that hard. It apparently doesn't even need pressure cooking-vinegar, mustard seed, a mortar and pestle, some spices and voila!! Gman

I prefer it warm. I've find the best way to reheat it is to put the oven at 450 F. And put the chicken in a roaster with a piece of foil over it for 20 minutes or so. I like crispy breading. But I like the underlying fat to be slightly moist-so the breading is still very slightly moist and not totally dry like toast. Gman

Spoiler Alert:: I've seen Jonathan Goff and others sing "You'll Be Back" on YouTube before, and it's always been performed in a more comical vein. In the performance caught on film, you can tell there is a real undercurrent of anger. He even spits-or more accurately- drools at one point. I'm not clear it it was for the part showing fury, incipient madness, (or both at the same time) or just one of those things. I also came across a YouTube video from when Hamilton first opened on the West End. The video was of an American show wanting to know the British public's reaction to the musical. The interviewer-also an American- said that in the UK production the King George character was made more acceptable by being portrayed comically. The hosts in the USA didn't agree that George wasn't a comic part in the Broadway production. But again, I see real anger in Jonathan Goff's portrayal during the song. On the other hand maybe Jonathan's drooling was just a mischance or due to enunciation. Whenever I see an actor spit, I'm always reminded of this Friend's Episode with Gary Oldman. Gman

I was extremely remiss in not wishing everyone a Happy National Fried Chicken Day yesterday. Unfortunately the holiday got away from me. I wasn't even able to have my traditional holiday meal (fried chicken, green beans, and mashed potatoes) until today. I bought the chicken from a local place as I've never stove fried chicken before (I've done oven fried in the long distance past). Stove frying seems like a lot of work and mess for one person. After I arrived home I kept the chicken warm in the oven while I was heating up the green beans. The following conundrum occurred to me. Some people like eating leftover cold fried chicken from the refrigerator. But if you want to reheat the leftover fried chicken, the USDA says make sure it reaches a temperature of 165 F. So the chicken is apparently safe to eat right out of the refrigerator for a few days. But if we want it warm, that same chicken that we just took out of the refrigerator and would have been fine to eat cold, has to reach 165 F???? Gman

Do they still have those? Weren't they sponsored by Rentboy? Gman

I hired Ace for a weekend almost right after he came to notice here. The pictures I have date from January 2013. Ace mentioned at the time that he was out of a long term relationship and been talking-possibly online- with a "guy" from California. I'm pretty sure the "guy" he was talking about was Tyler. I'll bet there is a good chance this was before the Palm Springs Dinner as the dinners were usually held in the warmer months. And I don't think Ace would have been well-known enough in 2012 to have been a guest at a Forum Dinner. Gman

I hope you are not going to try to tell me next that Phillip Schuyler did not have a multiracial family. Gman

Don't be embarrassed in the slightest. I didn't know what was going on at first either. I couldn't figure out why the building "was turned" like that. Then the words 90 degrees percolated through my agéd brain, and I realized what the cartoon meant. Gman

You wound me, sir. I don't think anything like that at all. I don't need the guy to be an incredibly horny stallion for me. Lord, I'm a terribly out of shape 59 and almost 1/2 year old. What would I do with a Maserati going 185? In the words of a popular song, what I for the most part am looking for is "one small thrill (ok maybe two?)" without (usually) anything (much) dirty going on. What it has to do with for me is the gender the guy is actually attracted to. I have negligible sexual attraction to the fairer sex (which may be one reason among millions that I'm not attracted to overly effeminate guys). And I would prefer to have sex with guys who in the main have the same attractions I do. Gman

I tried to sign up for the freebie and still was charged. Plus I read an article that said they had stopped the free trial. But maybe I did something wrong. Gman

I felt that way about Rent when I first heard about it. I thought why do I want to see a play about junkies. I changed my mind after I saw it. Gman

Oh no, no, no-I'll have to beg to differ. Cilantro may taste like soap. I'm on the fence about it. But Earl Grey Tea is sublime among teas. It's delicious iced or hot. Let the following be proclaimed throughout the land!! There must be no denigrations of the good Earl in my presence. Gman

I want to thank everyone. I looked up tentacles and tomatoes. But I never found that. Y'all are the best!!!??? Gman

Right now he lists being versatile. But of course I guess that might mean only versatile orally. Sigh, I'm so tired of straight guys as escorts. We need someone who's gay, versatile/or bottom, who kisses, and looks like him. Gman

I had sliced a few pieces of tomato to put on a pizza. Leftover tomatoes never keep that well after cutting, so I was cutting the remainder for a salad. All of a sudden as I'm slicing deeper into the tomato, I see tentacles in the tomato I'm cutting up. I was totally grossed out. They seemed to be attached to the innards of the tomato. They weren't soft like I'd think a worm would be. They were hard like uncooked vermicelli noodle or those noodles in Chinese food that look a lot like styrofoam before they are cooked. Once I had recovered, I pulled out the pizza that had been in the oven 10 minutes and took off the tomato slices. This tomato had been part of a bunch connected by a stem. I had already eaten one days ago. I hope there wasn't a space alien in that one too. But I took the last tomato in the bunch, and there was an alien there too. In fact that's what the picture is of as I was grossed out totally but he first one and threw it away. So anyone know what it is? I emailed the county extension agent. But I don't expect to hear anything back from him until next week at the earliest. Gman
