spatch's birthday, we celebrated by ordering a great quantity of chicken with trimmings and key lime pie from Highland Fried and watching The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974) on TCM. That movie still has one of the best-suited scores for its story that I know. Matthau's line about mishegos sees a fair amount of play in our household, especially with reference to little cats who want to stick their noses into chile honey and chicken gravy. I am starting to believe that we might be in a new year after all, but it is still the kind of year where we weren't at a Burns Supper, singing. We listened to a lot of New York City swearing instead.

It felt like an actual change. I hope it continues to feel so for the better.

I wrote about it briefly in 2016, when I was lucky enough to see it in a theater as part of an all-night marathon. It holds up every time I see it and it's one of the best city movies I know.

You write better, now, methinks. Personal opinion.

I appreciate it. I would hope that if I kept doing something, I would get better at it!

I've seen him in very little if I think about it, which I hadn't until this comment. I hadn't realized he died so young!
