I'm up, I'm up - eleven hours of sleep. Thank goodness. Was up a couple of times, but eleven hours is what I needed. Would love to do that tomorrow, too, but alas, she of the Evil Eye comes.

And I was thrilled to have slept 6.5 hours.

Eleven hours of sleep sounds great!

I bought a couple of issues of CRACKED.....but I was really more interested in Famous Monsters of Filmland and Castle of Frankenstein.

Thanks for preserving that, Rodzinski!

I loved all those magazines - Cracked, Help, and Panic. The latter only lasted twelve issues, I think - I have a bound set of them still.

I also have an original Cracked cover from 1972 by John Severin, their main cover artist - it's a wonderful painting of The Godfather cast with the Cracked person in there.

I think I'm feeling better today - but my neck is sore on the left now and has been for a few days.

Thinking about food now.

Cracked seemed a pale MAD imitation to me, but probably because that’s the one I knew first. Cracked.com on the other hand was a very good, funny website for a couple years before their style of listicles got stolen by every other website, and their quality died out.

Food ordered. Now I can relax and rest.

I spent an hour in the garden. Got work done, but I am dripping wet.

I am listening to a lengthy BBC radio production of David Copperfield. I’ve read it twice, but I have forgotten so much of the first third that I am enjoying being refreshed, even the ugly parts.

Freddie? Call me Ishmael.

I'm very sorry, Larry! I was just not observant today! I "fixed" my original post!
