Semi-Random Stuff

*) We suffered Epic Fail in an attempt (completely Dad's idea) to make waffles for dinner. He lost the instructions/recipie; he got a Fannie Farmer recipie that was made for PRE-ELECTRIC means of waffle-making; the waffle iron hadn't been used in months and Dad hadn't cleaned or re-oiled it...and the result was chunks of half-burnt, half-still gooey stuff. It was partly his fault, and partly my fault, but I was much more angry about it.
*) RetroTV keeps showing episodes of the old Battlestar Galactica either out of sequence or just looping the same ones over and over. More than a year ago, I wanted to see the second part of "Lost Planet of the Gods", and perhaps "The Long Patrol". Either I keep missing them or they just don't have them to show. Tonight's show was "Murder on the Rising Star"...which I've seen enough times, along with "War of the Gods" (as great as that one is), "Living Legend" (ditto), "Experiment In Terra" (which was an unfortunate wasted opportunity), and "The Young Lords" (ugh).
* The swap meet at the HobbyTown for gamers wasn't very good to me. I only sold five pieces for $5...and the guy with the MechWarrior pieces I bought last time didn't show. As a consolation I got a couple Comanche gunships at the Tuesday Morning in North Peters for my Heavy Gear/MechWarrior force.
