I don't eat breakfast a lot during breakfast, actually preferring it as a late night snack type thing. Buuuut, for breakfast if I was eating it as a one-off type thing, I'd eat it the way the English do: eggs, bangers, tomatoes, mushrooms, seriously strong coffee, bacon, english muffins or toast (or both), beans. I bet one of you could describe it better than me, but what I like is that afterwards you feel like you had a satisfying hot meal and have enough energy stored to begin your day and hit the ground running all morning. I love rainy weather too so when I'm in London and its rainy and cold and you eat that sort of breakfast it all fits together well.
APBM,
whats the ideal late night snack? Say, after 10:30 pm.

I dined a lot with mom this past summer. For anything more than me and her, it's been years. My sis is up from Costa Rica only rarely, so it's probably not been since '05 or before.
APBM,
what's your most unusual family tradition?

Not to speak ill of the dead, but my Dad used to root through the refrigerator and throw various and sundry leftovers into a gelatin mold-- and then he'd add gelatin, without any consideration for whether the various "additives" and the flavor of gelatin were even close to compatible.
Yes, we were expected to actually eat this and pretend to like it. I blame the First Great Depression (as opposed to the current one); maybe everyone in his age bracket liked subjecting their kids to something like this. But I never had the nerve to ask around.

Really mild for SC, lately. Highs only in the '80s and a nice cool breeze instead of overwhelming humidity. Looking forward to next month's lower power bill!
All Portents Bespeak Mildness,
Have you ever read any of my LMB fanfic? If so, which piece did you like the best and why? If not, why do you hate me and spit on my efforts by ignoring them?

I have and I commented on it (of all the people to answer, sucks that it had to be me, eh? )
APBM,
If you suddenly found yourself having to coordinate some sort of "Event" on Legion World, like a big postathon for the LMB 10 Year Anniversary, but had the choice of topic in choosing whatever type of event it was, what would it be? The goal would be to encourage new posters to register, lurkers to un-lurk, and get older posters to post heavily again. For example, several years ago we had "Titan Month" when the Titans and Legion crossed over. What "Event" would you choose?

I'll Fly Away" Although eclipsed in popularity by that other Brand/Falsey production, it stands alone in terms of script, cinematography, and acting.
Close runner-up: Battlestar Galactica

The Lazarus Man. (Yeah, very obscure, and I'm not even a huge fan of Robert Urich, or Westerns, so I can't really explain why. Just watch it and see for yourself.)
Close runners-up: Pinky and the Brain. Mystery Science Theater 3000. (M*A*S*H* is the one that I re-watch the most, but it technically began outside the 30-year window, so...) Say what you will about the Nineties. It did have some good TV.

Why does everyone hate on the Nineties so much, anyway?

I'm not sure. About 5 years at least. I got it when I gave up my land line.
