Already on the docket.  Associate Producer wants demos of " 
Plankuntos(PLANK-UNE-TOCE) and Miliacita(MILL-EE-YAH-CHEE-TAH) for 
Pizza. "  The former is Ancient Greek stuff-on-flatbread [actual recipes 
do not seem to exist but we can postulate a reasonable one], I have not 
yet figured out the latter.  If anyone here can enlighten me on 
Miliacita, I would be much obliged.

Ohhh, you should have been there earlier.  Jim O was really trying to 
make me say stuff about strippers and tassels, I was steadfastly trying 
to keep it all acceptable for family viewing.  Honestly.  My brother 
caught a great still of me guffawing with laughter in his production 
stills, I think that's what made me laugh so hard.
