  1. There's a commercial for Clorox disinfectant with two kids making a game of throwing pieces of salami at a refrigerator door and seeing if they'll stick. I was raised primarily by my grandmother who lived through The Great Depression. She considered wasting food a crime right up there with murder or wearing white shoes after Labor Day. She would have slapped the snot out of us grandkids if we did something like that.

  2. Dr. Turner had sort of a strange reaction to Gladys Bell's cancer diagnosis. He acted like she had actively sought out exposure to asbestos. 

    Poor Deirdre! The wounds on her back looked fresh, but they were supposed to be scars, right? She left her abusive husband before she knew she was pregnant again.

    If my dentist started talking to me about my nutrition, I'd find a new dentist. That's what my PCP is for.

    Yeah, the dentist says "I don't stuff anything *ha ha* down anyone's throat. But Balance of Nature has worked for me. It's easy, take it, it's going to help." 

    I think he probably could have phrased that differently.

  4. I watched "The Ceremony" yesterday, about a Jewish family relocating from Germany to Walton's Mountain. The son, who was turning 13, was upset because he wasn't going to have a Bar Mitzvah. All I could think was, I hope Ike Godsey doesn't sell Boggle at his general store.

    I tried sweet tea when I travelled south. I thought I was a slightly sweetened Iced Tea…like Tetley or some such…it…it was not 

    My grew up on sweet tea. Over the years my tastes have changed I much prefer a glass of unsweet tea with just lemon.

  6. That restaurant didn't need to identify itself as a barbecue joint. You could tell what kind of food they serve by the license plates on the walls and the rolls of paper towels on the tables.

    I finally figured out who he reminds me of--Chumlee on Pawn Stars. Same vacant expression. But none of Chumlee's sweetness.

    "The work I do is very labor intensifying!"

  8. So no lifeguards on England's shores?

    "My chest hurts" should have been a pretty big clue to her medically-trained parents.

    Seriously! This is just bad writing. Makes the Turners look like lunkheads.

  9. Well, this hour wasn't a total waste. I am going to try @Pepper Mostly's delicious sounding tuna and chickpea salad and I learned that it's OK to have a do-nothing day (I will let my girlfriend know about this). Have a great week and I will see you all back here next week.
