Tiny Reflections

Do you watch “Family Guy?” I don’t do it deliberately, but somehow it ends up on the TV every once in a while, so I watch a little bit here and there. It’s funny how they joke on American culture. I get it.

If you had a treasure chest, what would be in it?

There was this touching scene from “Throw Mama From the Train” where the Danny Devito character shares his treasures with his new friend. It was an assortment of odd things that had special meanings to him.

I want to start  own treasure chest. I have some special coins and tokens to start it off. Tokens from Chuck E Cheese when I was a kid, a silver dollar minted the year I was born. Stuff like that.

This is funny unless you are dealing with two feet of snow in your driveway. Then its not so funny. But I live in the South and don’t own a snow shovel.

Why shovel snow? You can get a heart attack from that! Its going to melt in a day or two anyway.

I just don’t know what it is about hot dogs, but I don’t t like to buy hot dogs and the rolls to make at home, they just don’t ever taste the way that they should. I have tried cooking them several different ways and they always come out tasting nasty, and I can’t get but a few bites down.

On the other hand I do enjoy eating a hot dog at a baseball or football game, and we have a drive through Hot Dog stand here in town, that makes a delicious chili & cheese hot dog that I enjoy eating once in a while.

I like drive throughs, any kind of drive through makes me a happy camper. I like driving up and placing my order, then handing over the money and having them give me what ever it is that I have ordered and they give it to me right in the privacy of my own vehicle. No need to find a parking place, no walking or standing in lines with people that smell, talk loudly, stare at you and basically get on my last nerve. And the kids that are running around screaming and out of control, well we don’t want to go there right now, that issue I’ll save for another time.

I’ve noticed that I have become down right picky when it comes to my pizza these days. If it isn’t Dominoes – with their thin crust with extra pepperoni – then I’m just not happy. I can’t stand a soggy thick crust that is all mushy in my mouth, just the texture of it makes my stomach queasy. So Pizza Hut and Papa Johns just don’t cut it, in my book.

It’s pretty cool that the pizza wars are a raging between the big pizza delivery companies and the prices are finally beginning to drop to a decent price. I mean jeez it used to be that pizza was not only a fast meal but a cheap one that you could get delivered right to your door, but the prices have sky rocketed the past few decades and I’ve been waiting for good quality pizza to become more affordable. All good things come to those who wait or so I’ve been told!
