And Joan Davis.  Let's not forget Joan Davis.

And Gale Storm and Zasu Pitts in "Oh, Susanna" both cracked me up quite a bit when I was a child.

There was a big scholarly book on SCREWBALL COMEDY that came out a few years ago that listed FRANCES FARMER in COME AND GET IT as one of the all-time great screwball performances.  I shook my head in confusion.  :)

I've lately been pleased to note that Jane Seymour is back on the air with her Kay Jewelers commericals and her open heart pendant...along with her dearest wish that it become a universal symbol of peace and love.

I had an unsuccessful trek to Macy's; the only comforter I liked turned out to be a comforter cover, which I did not want. Next stop, Bed Bath and Beyond.

So, here I am at Toyland, and the missing orchestra score is not turning up. Most frustrating and aggravating. Luckily, I'm planning an LoC trip on Dec 3-4, so I can always photocopy it again if it doesn't turn up somewhere.

On Tuesdays I work with a senior choir which I take to various and sundried retirement homes.  Today I arrived early and was thumbing through some ancient Reader's Digest Condensed Books.  One from 1962 had a book with pictures called "The Joy of School."  One of the pics was a little kindergarten male and the caption was a quote from him:  "When I grow up will I be a boy or a girl?"  I of course thought of many of you.  ;)

Tuesday morning greetings!  I'm doing something I probably haven't done for about 20 years - watching SESAME STREET. 

AOL is revisting the "Are Bert & Ernie Gay" issue:

Quote
Years later, Gary Knell, president of Children's Television Workshop successor Sesame Workshop, would say, "They are not gay. They are not straight. ... They don't exist below the waist."

Have you looked?

Perhaps, like a Muppet, you don't exist below the waist.

DID NEANDERTHALS HAVE SEX WITH MODERN HUMANS?

If they hung around the bar after "Last Call", they probably did.

Back from a two-mile jog.  After a year and a half of jogging, with probably only missing thirty days in all that time, I'm just finding it really difficult to have the energy to do four miles - so, I think switching up the mileage is what I'll do from now on.

Will she dredge up fondly recall a Mercer "cockles" lyric?

Strangely, I think that may be oneof the few words that didn't find its way into Johnny's lyrics!
