Oh, THAT'S what a dirndel is! And that's how you spell it! COOL! Bavarian Milk Maid outfit? Sounds hot to me! :)

I do know what the men's version is, but I can't spell it. :(

I'm 1/4 German...

Glad I could help with the Twilight Zone thing.

Mare Winningham was in "Button, Button" and the exteriors of that episode of the 1980s TZ was shot in an apartment building I used to live in with Stennie's and my mutual old friend Scott (not Scottie-dude). (The same building was used for the exteriors of Adrien Brody's apartment in Hollywoodland. (It's a very seedy apartment building)

And Stennie, why do you want to marry Claude Brodesser? I think he's married now because he currently goes by "Claude Brodesser Ackner" on his KCRW show. Sorry :(

MYTH BUSTERS ROX! And I think the meat thing is a great idea!

Hey, do you guys like to eat raw ground beef?

I gotta disagree with you guys on The Incredibles--I think it's the strongest of the Pixars. It was the most non-kids movie of them all and I felt genuine concern for the lives of the characters--unlike any other Pixar film. I'm just sayin'...

HATED finding Nemo. Didn't even finish watching it. Bug's Life was fun.

Sounds like Stennie's enjoying the Battlestar Galactica! :) I'm glad!

The person I most hate on TV (not that you asked) is Oprah. She had Kirstie Alley on so Alley could show off how great she looks in a bikini the other day! DID YOU SEE IT??

I hate that credit score guy, too. That fucker needs a gunshot blast to the face!!

Great show as always!

So it seems now that you've cleared up the Dirndl issue, you've got a bit of a Lederhosen one. See, Lederhosen means, literally, leather pants. They usually come up to the knee and have a tie and are worn with silly socks and boots.

The whole outfit, mens' or womens', is referred to as Tracht.

Each region has its own patterns for Tracht, and in the south of Germany as well as all over Austria, people wear these things to fancy events - I've seen people at the opera dressed like this - green hat with a feather, boobs pushed up to the ears and all.

I have no recollection of the Twilight Zone in the 80s. Did this last very long?

I am certainly no authority on meat, but I remember that my mother would only refreeze meat if it were thawed, cooked, and then frozen.

I don't think meat will spoil if you refreeze it - I'm with Stenns. It will just not taste right, and won't have the best texture. I think that goes for most things - refreezing stuff changes the texture.

Like tofu - freezing it changes the texture, but in a very good way. I recommend you try that before you eat the meat.

I hate anyone who does the Nutrisystem commercials - I didn't realize there were about three different brain-dead females on there, none of whom know anything about proper grammar ("... because it works so good!"). And that eHarmony guy -- I hate him, and every stupid couple on the commericals.

Here's a soon-to-be-topical question? Who or what should be a new balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade? And who would you least like to see as one of the special guests at Herald Square? The one thing I am excited about is that since Katie decamped to CBS, we WON'T have to watch her do the parade.
