    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Tonight, actually, a Manhattan. The other night, a whiskey sour.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    It's a Wonderful Life, last night, trying to make Christmas last just a little bit longer.

    What's for Dinner?

    Some of the Missus' from-scratch crockpot chili over a baked potato, covered in shredded cheese, sour cream, and onions.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Inspired by your clean, concise, almost poetic encapsulation, here's a haiku- Submarines, salvage, Russian gold under the sea. Touch of Evil, "Watch."

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    The Winterhaven eggnog is delicious, with the "additives" coming through loud and clear. However, we also prefer to mix and match regular eggnog with different extras. Some evenings it's brandy, other evenings it's Bailey's Irish Creme, pretty much whatever we're in the mood for.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Right now, Winterhaven Farm brand egg nog, the kind with rum, brandy, and whiskey put in right at the factory.

    As a dweller in the Big Apple, did the description in the book of mid-fifties New York ring true to you?

    What Are You Reading

    As is my annual practice, A Christmas Carol, and with the Missus, Merry Christmas, Mr. Baxter.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    A recording of Blue Bloods from last week (?) and the most recent Bull, which can be a surprisingly well-written sort of whodunnit. Scattered in there are catch-as-catch-can episodes of The Crown. The Missus is watching ahead, but likes it so much she re-watches it with me.

    What Was The Last Radio Program You Heard?

    The Cinnamon Bear, from 1937. For those who don't know, the program was designed to be an advertising tie-in, syndicated for broadcast from Thanksgiving to Christmas. The episodes I'm listening to have about one minute of music as intro and outro, probably so local announcers could supply...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Most of It Happened on 5th Avenue, mentioned above; will finish probably tonight. Two minor coincidences: Gale Storm, who went on to star in her tv show Oh, Susannah!, is shown in a Times Square music store and behind her is sheet music for Oh, Susannah!. Another character in the story is named...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The other night it was Elf, to officially kick off the Christmas movie season. For the first time it was the whole tribe watching~ daughter and son-in-law, son and daughter-in-law, great-grandpa, grandkids, and us. Normally someone calling out the punchlines to the dialogue in the movie you're...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    My wife discovered this a couple of years ago and has introduced it into our regular Christmas movies line up. (It's more a movie set at Christmas than a Christmas movie, but it's still fun)

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    You Gotta Stay Happy (1948) Joan Fontaine, Jimmy Stewart, and Eddie Albert. Former Army pilots trying to survive as a two-plane cargo outfit, with Jimmy as the president and pilot and Eddie as co-pilot. Joan ends up on board for a NY to CA run with time sensitive freight. I had never even heard...

    Harvey, for the movie night get-together. "Let me give you one of my cards."

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Last episode of Longmire. It's like, what, a year before we get the next season?

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    The Missus told me about The Crown, so we've watched about three episodes so far. We're enjoying it- the scenery, the costumes, the dialogue, the complicated family life (Mountbatten, Greek and Danish?). IMDb says Netflix budgeted $100 million dollars for the series, and it looks like it.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    For All Mankind, the documentary on the Apollo missions. Basically the home movies of NASA and the astronauts.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Longmire, this season, episode 9. Henry used a contraction!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, for the umpteenth time. Love it. Room for One More, with Cary Grant and (I think) then-wife Betsy Drake. About foster care for abandoned or neglected children. The opening is emotionally rough, but then is by turns sit-com humor and pathos.
