Beware!


You heard about Them/They this past week in my musings column, by popular demand here Them/They are. "Yes" Minions it's the Giraffe Of Doom!

"Oh No!" This is one of those things you take at face value. When someone tells you a specific giraffe brings impending doom perhaps one should listen.

As long as it isn't a conspiracy theory that all giraffes are basically a cult plotting impending doom, I believe an individual one could be.

There's always those bad apples after all, but one bad apple doesn't spoil the whole bunch, ya know.

I'm warning you this one and last time...

Sunday Funday indeed!

Hump Day & Chill

Doing Battle
Farrah Fawcett & Penny Marshall

Remember those Battle of the Network Stars competitions? You know where TV Stars from NBC, CBS & ABC would compete in various sporting events? Yeah, that's the ticket!

Let us Hump Day & Chill in memory of this one time institution with an image of two icons captured together in a moment of time participating in it.

Here is Farrah Fawcett of Charlie's Angels fame and the one and only Laverne, Penny Marshall, straight outts Laverne & Shirley!!!

Hey it doesn't get more iconic than this! The shows and characters they created are still in the public consciousness and in reruns all over the world. 

Sadly both have passed away, but they will never be forgotten.

Less raise a Hump Day & Chill glass as a toast to this...Cheers!

What Would Barnabas Collins Say?

Barnabas Collins

Remember the TV Show Dark Shadows? Of course you do (if not it's called Google) Then you have memories of it's resident vampire Barnabas Collins.

Ever so often I think to myself when I'm stuck: "Self, what would Barnabas Collins say?"

Well here is today's words of wisdom from the sage himself...

"Ah, music. Yes, I'm rather fond of the music of the day. "I am a picker, I am a grinner / I am a lover and I am a sinner / I play my music in the sun" If only Shakespeare had been as eloquent."

There you have it, that's all you need to know.

Get up and boogie indeed!
