Twitter in Focus: Jennifer Tilly

by tonyd on April 18, 2018 at 12:01 am

Hey Bros!

Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die!  Today’s contestant is an actress with a baby girl voice, Jennifer Tilly.  Let’s see what Mrs. Chucky is tweeting!

@JenniferTilly

April 14th:  “RIP , a brilliant filmmaker. He directed my sister Meg Tilly in Valmont. She adored him. Here is Milos, Colin Firth, and Meg relaxing on the set between scenes.”

So many people dying these last two weeks.

April 15th:  ““Hello, can I call you back? It’s a bit chaotic here right now…” ”

That’s a messy museum.

April 15th:  “It’s a sign! License plate on the wall of in . Also the name of a cult indie film I did written by and directed by .”

Fast Sofa?  Interesting name.

April 15th:  “Okurrr…”

Not sure what she’s trying to type here.

April 15th:  “ was on his way to the airport when he heard my sister Meg was being considered for , and decided to make a detour…”

Cool behind-the-scenes story.

April 15th:  “I love Oscar Wilde’s ruminations on poker! ”

I didn’t realize Wilde was a poker player.

April 15th:  “Balance. ”

That’s a nice pic.

April 16th:  “Learned a useful word today: “Drunch.” It’s when you meet for a lunch that consists of mostly drinking. ”

Ha!

April 16th:  “Is it even possible to go to  these days and wear a flower wreath “ironically”? No? I didn’t think so. ”

Does it really matter what you wear when you get that wasted?

23 hours ago:  “I drove all the way across town to go to the party, only to find out I was a day early! There’s no one here but me and Rick.”

At least the extra day will give him time to buy furniture.

Okay, let’s rate Jennifer’s tweets.  Pretty genuine.  Nice behind-the-scenes.  Real bummer about Milos.  I give her tweets an 8 for Mustness, a 7 for Insanity and a 9 for Style.  That’s an overall score of 8, follow Jennifer.  And if you have a suggestion for Twitter in Focus, email me here.

Fat Guy Eats: Connie Mac’s in Pennsauken, NJ

by tonyd on April 16, 2018 at 12:01 am

Restaurant: Connie Mac’s

Address: 8000 S. Crescent Blvd., Pennsauken, NJ 08109

Food:  Irish Pub

Price:  Average

Portions:  Average

Taste:  Really Good

Service:  Good

Atmosphere:  Bar

After visiting Walt Whitman’s grave with my date, we decided to grab some lunch.  Unfortunately, Donkey’s was closed, but Connie Mac’s was nearby.   It’s hard to get to.  Unless you’re heading toward Philly on Crescent Blvd, you’re really going to have to go through a lot to turn around.  And if you miss the turn, you probably should just make the next turn, park and walk back.  Just FYI.

That all being said, it’s a solid place to get lunch.  The grilled roasted beef sandwich was delicious and came with homemade chips and a pickle.  They also roasted and cut their own roast beef and had several signature sandwiches.  My waitress also targeted me as a massive iced tea drinker and brought me a pitcher.  Bravo.  Beyond that, it’s a pretty typical Irish Pub.  Oh and I had a salad that was pretty decent.  Overall, I’d say these guys are doing the food right.

I give Connie Mac’s 8 out of 10 keggers.  I would totally go here again.

Fat Guy Eats: El Guacamole, Millville, NJ

by tonyd on April 14, 2018 at 12:31 am

Restaurant: El Guacamole

Address: 110 N High St. Millville, New Jersey 08332

Food:  Mexican

Price:  Average

Portions:  Okay

Taste:  Not Great

Service:  Really Good

Atmosphere:  Kind like a pizzeria

 

I feel bad, because I wanted to like this place.  I was super hungry and the people that worked there were very nice.

I ordered a Burrito Americano and I read the ingredients: steak, lettuce, tomato, jalopenos, mayo and french fries on the side.  Only problem was, too much mayo and the whole thing fell apart when I ate it.  Also, it just wasn’t good.  I felt like I had eaten a mayo sandwich.  The fries were barely acceptable.  Definitely the frozen kind, but not bottom barrel.

I had overheard people talking about this place at my book signing.  Honestly, I feel like I ordered the wrong thing.  For a Mexican place, I just assumed the Mexican portion would be so awesome, even some Americanized version of a burrito would be good.  But the jalopenos weren’t even hot and the steak didn’t have any taste.  Even the salsa with my chips I didn’t like.

Somehow, I feel like I ordered wrong.  I would never order the Burrito Americano.  Maybe I’d go back for something with guacamole, since that’s the name.  But jeez, I felt bloated after all that mayo.

I give El Guacamole 4 out of 10 keggers.  Sorry guys.  I partly blame myself, but I was a bit food deprived.
