This show is one of our favorites. Love those Brits!

When I open the site there often is an intruder which will keep on no matter how many times I try to close it. Is some kind of security crap. It's coming from your site and my protection software doesn't work on it.

I wish they would quit play "God Bless America" in the 7th inning. 9/11, a one time event, was 14 years ago. "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" should be the only song which should be played in the stretch inning. I wish they would lose the fucking loud rock music, too.

That was reissued on Jazztone LP. Beautiful.

I tried a Lydia Bastianich egg dish today. Break eggs into a cold non-stick plan which had a bit of oil. Add salt, a sprinkle of dried oregano and grated Parmesan, cover pan and cook for about five minutes over low heat. Excellent and different. I make amy pizza dough in the Cuisinart processor - ha...

The Cubs would be in first place in the East. The Mets don;t have the division competition (Cards, Bocs) that face the Northsiders. who have to play those tough teams a lot of times

When I make pizza, I don't use sauce, just good raw tomatoes or Sam Marzano with garlic, etc. The heat of the over cooks th tomatoes and they come out much sweeter.

Back in the 50s, I spend many happy times at the great waterfront dive, The Lighthouse, and soaked up that great music that Howard put together. Bob Cooper, Bud Shank, Shorty Rogers, Frank Rosolino, Shelly Manne and so many other greats gave us the real West Coast jazz. Bebop is forever.

Major Crimes is our favorite network show. Good stories, great cast and lots of humor.

I'm beer brining some hot smoked chicken thighs today. I think some grits would work with that.

The southern grits give polenta a run for the money.

A favorite summer dish tonight, diced heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, parmesan, OVOO, hot orachetti dumped over the cold stuff. Great dish.

The SUpremes actually made three great rulings last week and Jerry Brown made a good one.

His contributions were huge. I didn't meet him, but I feel that I knew him.

Through that old Chicago magic, the Cubs bring back Fergie Jenkins and Ernie Banks and wrap it all up.

Realistically, put you money on the Cubs to go all the way for the first time since the Teddy Roosevelt era.

Please let me go on the record. The Mets are simply the greatest team ever. Any decade. Any century. Any galaxy, universe and/or solar system. They won in ten innings last night after some reliever who I never heard of gave up three runs, blowing a nine strikeout gem by my man Jacob deGrom, last ye...

Opah is a wonderful fish. Santa Monica Sea Foods is a great source.

Tonight, rotisserie roast chicken stuffed with cilantro and garlic and garlic sauteed chard with more garlic.

No vampires around here.

I wish we had "like" buttons here on Jazztalk. But June, this way you can address JT readers directly, express your "liking" in your own words, and say anything else you want to say in the same post. IMO, that's much more participatory and "social." (Is it obvi...

It struck me yesterday whilst watching the Halos that you hardly ever see beer commercials on game broadcasts any more. I would guess that Card game do mention Bud.

The Cubs are paying a whole lot for crappy pitching, even though he makes an out by throwing his glove.

It's time we appointed the gerbil as the national rodent.

And the Cubs are in first place. I will enjoy that for the few moments that it lasts.
