Here’s a recipe for you: https://www.delish.com/cooking/recip...ke-fried-rice/

Today’s funny:
A poodle and a collie are walking together when the poodle suddenly unloads on his friend. “My life is a mess,” he says. “My owner is mean, my girlfriend ran away with a schnauzer, and I’m as jittery as a cat.”
“Why don’t you go see a psychiatrist?” suggests the collie.
“I can’t,” says the poodle. “I’m not allowed on the couch.”

Here is a good one from Norm MacDonald, sad at his passing.

Funny, but there’s a version of that joke on my list to use sometime. Sad about Norm, too.

I have cable, Netflix and Prime. I pretty much never watch cable, but it's lumped in with a bundle that includes home security and wifi. I mostly only watch Netflix when there's a new season of one of the few shows that I like (Stranger Things or Cobra Kai). On Prime I'll watch an occasional movie or show.

Above all, I'm a YouTube junkie. I love live streams: theme park streams, news & politics discussion streams, etc. Yesterday I watched a couple of live cooking streams. And then I watch a lot of videos like mindless funny stuff, workout videos, tutorial videos, music.



In a normal year, how many times do you...
Go to the movie theater? This year I've gone twice.

Go to a play or other live performance?

Go to a music concert?

I haven't been to either in a long time. I used to go to a lot of musicals/plays.

Pepperoni? Si o no?

Turkey pepperoni.

There’s an entertaining week ahead, so make it a show stopper. I’m thinking about forms of entertainment.

Do you watch much TV? Yes; too much. I often have the TV on even when I'm not watching it: right now, for instance. I've watched quite a bit of late-night TV since I retired a couple of years ago.
How do you get it? Cable, rabbit ears, satellite? Antenna on the roof. I get over 60 HD channels for free and could never justify paying for cable or satellite.
Do you pay for any other subscriptions like Netflix or Prime, etc? Nope.
Do you watch shows on your computer? I sometimes stream PBS shows that I've missed and occasionally watch a show on Peacock via my laptop.

In a normal year, how many times do you...
Go to the movie theater? None last year; none this year so far; about once a year in the 10 years prior to the pandemic.
Go to a play or other live performance? Plays a couple times a year; local band and symphony concerts several times a year.
Go to a music concert? Several times a year.
