That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Ian McKellen (The Lord of the Rings, X-Men) and Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: The Next Generation) will team up on the London stage in a new production of Samuel Beckett's classic absurdist play Waiting for Godot

Dear me. Oh, my. I played Estragon in that and it's a ride of a show. They will rock.

I suppose I should put some real clothes on to great the trick or treaters in, rather than my pajamas....

ChiKat! I thought of you when I saw that mention of the McKellen/Stewart production.

I have absolutely no food at home, and spent the past 20 minutes looking through the Jewel ad to put together my shopping list. Way too long! (BTW, there's a "Mega Meat Sale" going on there this week.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

there's a "Mega Meat Sale" going on there this week.

Meat Party!!!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I can't link from my phone ( blah blah no copypastcakes) but I just uploaded a supercute pic of Dylan in his costume to Flickr.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What is his costume, Jess?

For lunch I walked up to North Beach and ate at Mario's Bohemian Cigar Store. I asked for a Lillet but they were out and offered the house Campari. Which was perfect. A little bitters, a little dry Campari, a little sweet Campari, a twist of lemon. The ideal afternoon drink. Just a teeny bit sweet, just a little kick.

Then I had the Italian sausage sandwich, drizzled with marinara, topped with provolone, on onion foccaio and run under the broiler until it was hot and melty. Perfecto 100!

Note for my wife (from Yelp): "I recommend the grilled eggplant sandwich on foccacia bread (with balsamic vinaigrette, feta, tomato, arugula)."

Always Anti-fascist!

Am sad that I can't eat most marinara anymore. My stomach doesn't like basil and most places don't want to tell you they put it in. Or their tomatoes are too acidic. I'm not sure which.

This is sad!

No they don't. I remember having dinner with a female friend and her boyfriend. I complimented him on the marinara (which was exquisite) and asked for the recipe. He laughed that laugh they do sometimes on the Sopranos or in The Godfather, like, "Fuck you and your sainted grandmother, you whoresucking bastard! I'm not going to give you my family's marinara recipe, shithole. People get cut over less."
