January 1, 2019



2019 looks to be a year of major changes. May not have a job by the end of the year. All is good, my landing will be fine.



Mimosas! With leftover Champagne.



Knish Nosh Dogs and Knishes are a yearly tradition.



So is Hoppin John, this year with Shrimp and Bay Scallops.



French director Robert Enrico’s memorable 24-minute film adaptation of Ambrose Bierce’s short story An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge originally aired on the CBS network on February 28, 1964, during the fifth and final season of Rod Serling’s “The Twilight Zone.”

Ambrose Bierce was last heard from in a letter to his secretary and companion, Carrie Christiansen — dated December 1913, and bearing a Chihuahua, Mexico, postmark — writing to her:

“If you hear of my being stood up against a Mexican wall and shot to rags, please know that I think it’s a pretty good way to depart this life. It beats old age, disease, or falling down the cellar stairs. To be a Gringo in Mexico — ah, that is euthanasia.”
