Are there certain dear readers laboring under the misperception that this is a holiday week away from haineshisway.com?

Forgot one by Monty Python:

THE PENIS SONG (NOT THE NOEL COWARD SONG)

Love that one, too. And "Every Sperm Is Sacred."

Thank you, Onan!

I've read a couple of Stewart O'Nan's novels.

I only know him from "Last Night at the Lobster", and I loved that.

This is not a funny novelty song. 

I just stumbled across it.  I hadn't heard it for close to 70 years, and listening now is still chocked me up.

My mother told me that, when I was about 4, I'd listen to this record over-and-over and cry.

Is it any wonder that "Poor Old Rover" is not one of Bing Crosby's greatest hits?

 :'(

The sound was too bad for my lousy speakers so I looked up the words.  Did Rover save the boy and then what happened?

I used to read, over and over, the sad poem "Rags".

http://allpoetry.com/poem/8619985-Rags-by-Edmund-Vance-Cooke-

It was the beginning of my wanting to be a vegetarian even though I had never heard the word.

We watched SAVING MR. BANKS last night...and loved it.


Redbox announced it was available today, except not in Southern Oregon.  Instead we are watching THE WOLF OF WALL STREET.

Tuesday morning greetings!  Today's supposed to be a tend-to-Mom day, but it's supposed to snow this afternoon.  We'll see...

We talked to Bryan a little while ago and he has snow.

I don't recall if anyone mentioned it or not, but actress Patrice Wymore passed away.

Many know her as the wife of Erroll Flynn, but I remember her best as the lead opposite Rex Reason in THE SAD HORSE, and for showing up on TV shows like Perry Mason.





I don't remember this movie.  We did however watch Chill Wills in an episode of Gunsmoke last night.

Re the oreos sign - this is the new thing on Facebook - none of these things are real - they're all photoshopped - someone last night posted a sign from Santa Cruz saying Yoga would be subject to a fine due to a city ordinance.  I called fake and someone posted the real sign pre-photoshopping - obviously nothing to do with Yoga.

Funny, I never thought it was real only that it was a joke.

I never saw the movie and somehow missed the Gunsmoke episode.  However, if this counts, I do like Chilly Willy the Penguin.

I'm Chilly Willy the penguin.
I shake until I'm blue.
My head is hot and my feet are cold.
Ha...Hee...Hachoo!
Now what about the crocodiles along the river Nile?
I'll bet they're always warm as toast.
They always seem to smile.
I'm always Chilly Willy.
I'm frozen through and through.
My nose is red and my tale is told.
Ha...Hee...Hachoo!

This was posted last night on Facebook by Fred Barton. I enjoyed reading it, and thought some DRs might enjoy it, also:
 

That's fantastic!  I looked on FB and found Fred Barton's post.  I know that HHW is a family site, but I think his next paragraph needs to be included:

Quote
Then Julie White got back to business. Calming the house once more, she resumed: "The next performer…. is fucked." Down came that house.

Thanks, DR George. I did not include that final bit of Fred's because I did not want to get in trouble here, but I'm glad that you did.


(And let it be on your head!)      :)

With what Larry posts here when he's really angry, you'd think this would get you in trouble?

;)

LOL :)

Back from tending to Mom.  Part of what had her upset over the weekend, I found out today, was her thinking I was going to be away for a month.  When I convinced her it's just a week, she calmed down a bit.  I helped her with some mail and other paperwork, then went out and did a little grocery shopping for her.  She'll be OK, but let's not tell her just yet that later this year I'll be in France for almost 2 weeks...

Maybe wait to tell her much closer to the trip.  You might say you are going away for a month and when she objects say you will reduce it to two weeks ;)

In addition to other DRs Sherlock Holmes lists, which I second, I would add that my very first exposure to the Sherlock phenomenon was Sherlock Hemlock of the Muppets (and seems to have been revived by Benedict Cumberbatch, the recent Sherlock):

Cute :)

Here is the painting of him as Holmes.

When you name your pet for someone as famous as Sherlock there are constant reminders of him long after he is gone physically.  More so now with the two popular shows.

Fred Barton's always a little late to every party - I believe we posted a similar thing about Miss Morrison last year or the year before after her performance in the STAGE benefit.  She is indeed amazing.

Now that you mention it I do recall your comments.
