Sunday Post


So State of Art took first place at the state championship last week. Now it's on to Worlds in Dayton. Last competition for the year. I stopped at Bilbo's on my trip- cool idea, cool decor- it's Middle earth themed. Too bad it sucked. I used to like the one by Michigan State but it's long gone. I got the Dragon Feast pizza but it was just okay. Some may remember a while back I did a poll after sharing the menu- asking people which sandwich they'd pick since they're all Middle earth themed- here's a link. But the sandwiches the people with me got were sadly disappointing.    

And... Movies That Suck for the week is... Before I Fall      

This week's discussion post is Are Some Authors Too Big To Fail    






 

Here is this week's lyric. 
 It's not in the way that you hold me  
  

Here is the lyric f/ last week and the answer      

Hello
 Is there anybody in there

    Congratulations! In spite of bad pizza at your favorite place on earth (well..maybe) Hope all goes well. The heat must be on. A warm weekend in the 80's here before the storms..but the forecast has been so wrong lately. I went to First Watch this week, it wasn't as good as I remember, either. I've been doing my best to behave..except today. I am failing miserably trying to make a box room. I better just stick with writing. On a Pink Floyd note..I just put in a CD donation of it at the library..and I was thinking of you (✿◡‿◡) Wishing you a great weekend.

    Congratulations! I hope the team kills it at Worlds. I don't think I saw all of Before I Fall, but the book was amazing.

    I would have very high expectations of somewhere called Bilbo's - I'm sorry the food wasn't good. Have a great week!

    Congrats! I am sad about the sandwiches and pizza not being great. I hate it when I go back to a restaurant I enjoyed and it's just meh.

    A LOTR themed restaurant near me would be awesome, I don't think I'd mind even if the food sucked lol

    Congratulations to State of Art on their win! I hope they do great at Worlds. That's too bad about Bilbo's food not being all that great.
    I do wonder about George R.R. Martin. I would think the longer he takes to write a book set in that world, the harder it is to return to it. I think that he and other famous authors probably get away with a lot more than lesser known authors might. It sure seems that way when it comes to contracts and such.

    I hope you have a great week, Greg!

    So cool that State of the Art got first at State! Must be exciting for them to be heading to Worlds!

    Ugh! Themed restaurants are fun, but the food has to be good! We went to a Doctor Who themed restaurant in New York and I remember it being good.

    That sucks when a place you've enjoyed goes downhill. We had a lot of themed restaurants in FL & some were surprisingly good. And some...weren't lol

    Yes... all well and good having spiffy names for sandwiches - but they have to be worth the effort of eating them! I love the cover of the book - why do so many of the blondes end up looking like Veronica Lake???

    Oh that's too bad about Bilbo's! We have a Dungeons and Dragons themed coffee shop here and town and it's pretty disappointing too. Love the pulp title! Very noir. Have a great week!
