Favorite 103 year old moment:  we sang Happy Birthday and then the woman's great granddaughter leaned in to her and shouted, "You should thank all these people for coming to your party."  The 103 year old looked befuddled for a moment and then asked, "Will all these people be coming to the party?"  ;)

Aww.

My husband's Aunt Pearl will turn 104 next month. She's about the same way.

Thanks! He used to be an Assistant United States Attorney.  We went from sort of friends to very heated adversaries.  Then he went to Saipan for 3 years and when he came back he ran for County Attorney but lost the election, so he decided to paint.  He's been a full time artist for several years now.   Here's his website http://bowersart.carbonmade.com/   

We've become very good friends since he's no longer "on the other side".  I'm also very good friends with his wife, who is helping him hang the painting in the photo.

That's ok.  It's actually intentional and why I picked that particular lady justice.  Since I do immigration, the Statue of Liberty is fine.  My dad, on the other hand, think it looks like a punk rocker with spiked hair.

Back from MBarnum's backyard, AKA Philomath. 

having never heard of philomath i looked it up.  it appears to be much closer to corvalis than mbarnum.

congrats on the house & vibes your current home sells!!

Tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. EST, TCM will show the Dirk Bogarde version of A TALE OF TWO CITIES, which is my favorite film version of the story.  Bogarde's Sydney Carton is heartbreaking as he keeps his distance from Lucy because she loves another....and finally sacrifices his life for her and her family.

It is such a great story....and this is a terrific version....if you like the story and the Ronald Colman version but have never seen this one, please give it a chance.  I think you will like it.....

Thanks JRand and JMK.  I'm very sure I'll enjoy it for years to come.  I was very pleased when I sent the photo to Edith and her response was "That's really cool"  I'm not sure what I would have done if she had hated it

I'm watching the Miss America pageant and feel really old - they just interviewed a former MA who was crowned 50 years ago and I remember her!

My Mom always made clam dip for Miss America night, but we can no longer get the Kraft Roka Blu cheese spread that's a pivotal ingredient.  Maybe I'll have some chips & salsa instead.

I think so, DR Cillaliz, maybe with a higher pay scale.
