I always confuse Buddy Ebsen with Eddie Albert. Buddy Ebsen is the guy who played Uncle Jed on the Beverly Hillbillies. He was originally cast to play the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, switched roles with the guy playing the Tin Man, and then got sick because of the makeup. I think that's a real rip off. I wonder if he held a grudge against the guy who got him to switch? I would have. Eddie Albert played the main guy in Green Acres. He also played a retired general on an episode of Columbo, which I saw today. I watched Columbo for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and I have to say it pretty much rules. He drops "one more thing"s like Steve Jobs.

After Columbo, the wife and I went to Starbucks. She got a sandwich, but there's nothing savory there for a vegetarian like me, so we stopped at a convenience store to get me a salty snack. I was really hoping for some Cheetos, but I don't see them so often at the konbinis. I saw Doritos, though, and I was fired up until I saw what kind of Doritos they were. Fried Chicken Doritos. That's right, they had Fried Chicken-flavored Doritos, but they didn't have the regular nacho kind. That drives me crazy. If you have just enough space for one kind of Doritos, go with the regular. Sometimes they'll have four kinds of Kit-Kats but no regular. Come on. Regular me. We don't need new crap. Also, fried chicken isn't a flavor; it's a food. Here are the Doritos in question.

We went to Heian Shrine, where we were married two years ago. Since Japan's the only country where the leaves change color in the autumn, we went to a couple of temples and checked out the leaves. Japan's also the only country with four seasons, trains, and bacon. What a country! The leaves were nice, and we checked out an aqueduct. What an aqueduct! I've never seen an aqueduct like it. There were plenty of people out, though, and a lot of them were old. Not to be ageist, but come on, granma, get the hell out of my way! I'm trying to find some potato chips.
