The app was misbehaving, insisting that I was in the middle of a previous order with no
way to get out of it.  So, I went to the drive-up kiosk and gave the order number.

Someone was killed crossing Lake St in Bartlett / Streamwood.  Google Maps shows
that the cameras were on cross streets in 2022, but they haven't been on that part of Lake St since 2012.
It seems very odd that if the Google car was in the area, why wouldn't it have taken
photos on Lake St.  There used to be a Burger King that is now a Dunkin Donuts.
There was a hot dog place that was already out of business in 2012 but the building was shown
on the news. I can't find any information about the hot dog place -- 
I don't know how long it had been out of business.

>>>   1:32p  "True Lies"  (Metacritic: 49,  20-70, #14)
Language professor discovers that her husband is a spy
Based on 1994 film of the same name which I saw 25 yrs ago but I don't remember.
~~  One review said it "is a pretty funny show when not trying to dazzle us with car chases, gunfights and displays of computer graphics that are probably gibberish.
Another said "if it's pure enjoyable escapism you're after, [it] is hard to beat."
Generally, that's NOT what I'm after.
~~  One critic wonders why someone thought that turning the movie into a TV show was a good idea.
Worst review said it's "a criminally wooden, algorithmic remake without a single original idea to prop itself up."
~~  Jenny Mercein plays Professor Gilpin although I didn't notice the character.
~~  I don't expect to keep watching but I'll let TiVo record it.

Jennifer Grace Sarayba plays Nurse Marilu.

They've always had a lot of elevator scenes on this show and the doors open
to show a sign with the hospital name on the wall of the corridor.  I was thinking
to myself that it's been a while since the elevator opened on the floor with the 
window looking onto the Public Market, and seconds later there it was, 

-- 12:28p  "Snowfall" (02/22/23, ep2)
There was a scene at Woody's Bar-B-que, 3453 W Slauson Ave.
They showed it with picnic tables outside, but Street View shows a parking lot.

>>> 10:51p  "Act Your Age"
Some have described it as "The Golden Girls" with black women.
This is the first show on Bounce that I've watched -- I never even heard of Bounce before.
Unlike "The Golden Girls" the 3 women were not living together already -- they weren't
even living in the same city.  The invite to move in together came at the very end of
the episode, so it's unknown how it will be justified.  Overall, the show doesn't
make much sense but I'll give it a chance, even though it probably doesn't deserve it.
