Speaking of the evil queen and the poisoned apple:
I just got back from picking up some music from someone, and it's a jungle out there with people doing their panic shopping a day ahead of the sn*wst*rm.The grocery stores must be shouting "Eureka!" since they haven't had one of these boosts in a while.
Sending vibes to everyone dealing with bitter cold, ice, and snow.
I did manage to get my olive tree and a few other plants covered. It wasn’t easy in the wind. I just hope they stay covered.
Made me think of DR Laura.

I haven't read the Perrault stories in years, but if my memory is correct, the children are conceived while the Beauty is still asleep and unaware that her rescue is also her rapist.Oh interesting! In the kids book, he wakes her and they have the family, then the attempts at eating begin. The wicked queen is eventually devoured in a tub of snakes.

I do believe I have finished a book.
Hoping BK is not feeling too sore today from yesterday's fall.
DR JOHN G I didn't realize Huxley wrote that version - I was confused.Rhythm on the River - an earlier movie Rhythm on the Range starred Bing Crosby and was the first BIG film for Frances Farmer at Paramount. Crosby is from Washington as was Frances. They became great friends....and remained so for life.In the late 1960's Crosby arranged for Frances to become a co-spokesperson for Minute Maid Orange Juice.At the BIG final meeting one of the MM executives made the mistake of asking Frances what Tyrone Power was really like. Frances was not amused - made an off color remark and then said: "Gentlemen, I do not care to sell your God Damned Orange Juice!" And then she walked out.
My favorite line in the movie is from Martha Raye who takes one look at Bob Burns and says: "No matter what anyone says, you keep wearing that suit!"
Those neighbors would have used up my good graces long ago. Vibes for Bk having as few aches and sorenesses as possible today!
I hope that DR LAURA's speech goes well.
DR John G. - perhaps next week you'll be able to make a snow chicken.
Maybe we could have a photo of one of the lobby cards? Just for fun.
