Best Melons Contestant #3 - Carmen Electra


Helpful tips from the Dark Zone Curator: If you find yourself in a scary movie and you find yourself wearing a bikini, and you are a hot chick, under no circumstances should you run out of the house. Take it from professional Goddess and actress Carmen Electra. You don't want to be that girl in a horror movie.

Carmen Electra may be famous for her "Booty Shake" but her melons are most impressive.

Happy Halloween

Best Halloween Costume #3 - A Pink Nightmare


One of the most popular Christmas holiday movies is the 1983 hit, A Christmas Story. Over the years it has become a cult classic as replica’s of the props from the movie have become sought after gifts for birthdays and Christmas. I have the leg lamp.

In the past several years, A Christmas Story has filtered into the Halloween Holiday. The Pink Nightmare, (Ralphies Christmas present from his aunt, a complete pink colored bunny suit made for a girl) a full sized leg lamp, and the FRAGILE crate the leg lamp was delivered in.

I guarantee that you will see one of these Halloween costumes at one of your parties this October.

Kokomo’s Steak And Seafood Restaurant - Filet Mignon

Mirage Kokomo Steak House Filet
The Mirage Hotel And Casino in Las Vegas has some very fine restaurants. None finer than Kokomo's Steak and Seafood. Of course reservations are required and we were covered. We were seated right away which was a slight surprise for it was pretty busy.

The waitress came over promptly and took our drink order and left us a basket of bread and rolls. A few minutes later she returned to take our dinner order.

Of course, being in a steak house, I ordered the Filet Mignon and baked potato. I asked for the filet to be butterflied and cooked medium well done.

A very short time elapsed and my steak was brought to the table. The filet was cooked perfectly and the potato exactly as ordered. (No sour cream or chives)

Cutting into the steak, it was heavenly, juicy, tasty, an almost perfect combination. Zero fat on this filet. I ate every bite. The baked potato was excellent as well, (As far as naked potatoes go) which completed an almost perfect meal.

The cost was around $40 without tip which is a steep until you consider where the location. (The heart of the Las Vegas strip)

The Grassy Knoll Diner awards 4.5 shots out of 5 to Kokomo's Steak and Seafood Restaurant located inside the Mirage Hotel and recommends the filet for dinner.

Carnegie Deli - Turkey Sandwich

Carnegie Deli
The hamburger at the Carnegie Deli was so good that we returned for a second visit on our last trip. This time I ordered the turkey breast and American cheese sandwich on a Kaiser roll.
Turkey And Cheese On kaiser Roll
As was the last time, the service was quick and courteous and the order correct. The turkey was piled high, (Not as high or as much as the Stage Deli in NY, but who's is?) and the cheese fresh and plentiful. The roll was fresh and not hard.

Although this sandwich does not compare to the Stage Deli turkey sandwich, it was good tasting and priced right. (About $14.00 without tip)

The Grassy Knoll Deli awards 3.5 shots out of 5 and recommends the turkey sandwich at the Carnegie Deli inside the Mirage Hotel.

Request For Ghost Hunters To Investigate


Dear Jason and Grant of Ghost Hunters. I am writing to you in hopes that your paranormal team can come to Youngstown, Ohio and investigate the basement in our just moved into office building.

Several weeks ago the Grassy Knoll Institute secured a larger building that became our secret lair and Zombie apocalypse fortress. However, we weren't the only tenants in the building.

As we began to clean the space and tear down several walls to fortify them we began noticing objects being misplaced. (Hammers, saws, bricks and mortar) At first we thought we had merely misplaced them ourselves in our hurried pace to complete the fortress outer structure. Until one evening we captured something startling on our perimeter webcam. It only last a second a two but it clearly shows an apparition floating around the doorway against the back wall.

We hope the Ghost Hunters team (TAPS) can assist in explaining the suspected paranormal happenings here at our warehouse before the Zombie Apocalypse begins. We don't want to be trapped inside with this entity.
Our scientists believe the Zombie Apocalypse will begin in Youngstown, Ohio on October 22nd right before sunset. Be prepared.

Happy Halloween

Hoss's Restaurant - Grove City - Chicken Strips

Typical Hoss Salad
Hoss's Steak House In Grove City, Pennsylvania has many an entree's on it's menu. I have sampled many of them. Today's offering is chicken strips, french fries, and salad bar.

I started with the salad bar that has a generous selection of items. Of course I constructed a standard salad, plus macaroni and cheese, potato wedges with hot cheese, chicken noodle soup, lemon cookies, jello, pudding, and ice cream.
Chicken And Fries
The main entree was chicken planks and french fires. The chicken strips was a generous portion and cooked to a golden brown, wasn't greasy, and lightly seasoned. The taste was very good. The french fries were also well cooked, crunchy, hot, and very good tasting.

The service was good, a sort of a help yourself plus waitress server, very friendly, and well priced at $9.99 plus tip.

The Grassy Knoll Diner awards 4 out of 5 shots to Hoss's Steak House and recommends them for lunch and dinner.

  6. SKA2682 said

    Did the salad bar actually have mac and cheese, or was that seperate? I have never seen a salad bar with that or potato wedges, or cheese sauce. Usually it is the standard salad fair, ie: bacon bits, shredded cheese, cottage cheese, and maybe jell-o.

  7. Bitzky said

    Not a moonin! A MooMin! >.<
    I don’t moon people ;P

  8. LOTGK said

    Ska2682,
    Yes, the salad bar had mac and cheese,also pizza, three types of soup, chili, potato wedges, pasta, cookies, cakes, breads, ice cream, pudding, pie, fruit, jello, and other delights. It very well could be an entire meal in itself.
    Bitzky, whoops, sorry, you are also the official Moomin as well.

  9. LOTGK said

    Blue, no you didn’t, but I will have it done very shortly.
    Promise…..

  10. Anti-Christ said

    You want a sign? I’ll give you a sign. Gas prices are soaring forcing a conflict with the middle east nations which will bring to a head the rise of me, the Anti-Christ.

Best Melons Contestant #2


Ernest and Ethel done and gone did it. They got themselves hitched up together. Ethel always wanted to have one of them fancy military weddings while Ernest just wanted to go and do some M-80 fishing.

It must be love for both compromised. Ethel donned her patriotic bikini showcasing her lovely melons and Ernest brought along his gun and his best boots. Second cousins are so cute...
