Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Yesterday, I heard on the news that a 12 year-old Connecticut boy was shot for throwing snowballs at a car. I am so glazd I grew up when I did.

If songs that became movie titles later count for the TOD, I'd add "The Night The Lights Went Out in Georgia" and "Harper Valley PTA"

I always liked both the song and the movie to Harper Valley PTA. ;D

Barbara Eden and Nanette Fabray. What’s not to like?

According to wartime anecdotes, a stray cat is said to have wandered into the Cairo Conference in 1943, briefly interrupting the high-stakes meeting between leaders like Churchill, Roosevelt, and Chiang Kai-shek. Though unverified, this light-hearted tale reflects the unexpected ways animals brought moments of calm and levity to even the most serious occasions during World War II.


I think we're going to need a lot more of these kinds of stories over the next several years.

Saturday morning greetings!  We had a smooth drive back from Illinois yesterday.  Even though I miss those kiddos, I’m very glad to be home.

Welcome home, Ginny!

I have received emails from both Baskin Robbins and See's Candy celebrating peanut butter day.

FYI:

While I am very sorry to see Baskin Robbins on the list, the stores are also franchised as are the smaller ACE Hardware stores.

The list is very sad.

I know. :-\

DR FREDDIE the movie is a corker.....lots of scenery chewing and high fashion circa 1965 or so.....and of course Suzanne Pleshette and Ben Gazzara and Peter Graves and Bradford Dillman....to name a few.


Yowza!

And "Harper Valley PTA" usually makes me think of "Ode to Billy Joe," another movie made based on a song.

We're Wordle twins today DR GEORGE.


I've never seen the two of you together in the same room at the same time, though.  In Wordle terms, could you even be the same person?

I've been reading the articles and I'm not sure - Was he throwing the snowball AT a moving car?

Well, I must be off.  I need to help my niece at her house for a few minutes, then I can come back home and relax before I have to leave again to work concessions downtown.

Until later!

Thank you for the welcomes home.  I haven’t been sitting here like so much fish - Richard and I went to the grocery and did a couple of other errands.
