    For those who love the seaside

    On the other side of the Pond, let me recommend Ocean City, Maryland (USA). A pleasant seaside town. When I was a child, my family would go there every summer. There was a boardwalk, a nice beach, and deep sea Marlin fishing. Lots of sun and fun!

    Too Many Antiques shows on TV

    I happen to like Celebrity Antique Road Trip. It's a hoot.

    Foggy

    Well, let's think about what these phrases represent. They all refer to Foggy's imaginary tour of duty in a far away jungle, It was unacceptable for Foggy to be just a sign writer, instead, he became a well respected jungle fighter. As a note, is it possible that we may have known someone who...

    Goff and Jesse

    Well, we have developed a system that works. I go off in one direction and get milk, cottage cheese, crackers, etc. and he goes off in another direction and gets grapes, croissants, etc. and then we eventually meet and go to check-out. Occasionally, thinking that he is right behind me, I have...

    All eight. Well this is how to bring the house (chimney) down!

    A perfect demonstration of the law of physics and wonderful use of explosives. This is the result of many years of careful study of demolition and what worked and what didn't. When something didn't work, they made careful study of what went wrong. This successful demolition is the result of many...

    OMG you gotta be kiddin'

    My niece who played trombone in the high school band, found that she had to switch to playing a tuba BECAUSE they banned trombones, they were worried about the kids getting wacked by the slides. Trombones have been a mainstay of marching bands for ages and ages and I've never heard of a kid...

    Hyacinth Bucket

    Back in the mists of time, it was a given that girl babies were given names of flowers. So Roy just went with the program, not only Hyacinth, but also Rose and Daisy. My aunt was named Lillian.

    Have You ever

    Back when I was working, I had developed a medical condition (of which I was unaware of) which caused me to fall asleep on the bus home. AND one day, I would have gone past my stop sound asleep except that a kind sole woke me up in time for me to hop off the bus.

    New Weather Station

    Yes, there is a time when it is vital to have accurate weather information. A very sad example was the Texas girls camp disaster. So sad. But then there is nothing wrong with stepping outside and looking, listening (for thunder), feeling if it's raining or snowing and how hard. If you step...

    The Time Has Come

    Oh dear, rotary dial, that's going way back -- to the '70's. And on another subject -- I have to really look to make sure I'm not trying to answer the TV remote or use the telephone to change the channel.

    Hard Fall!?!

    A real good reason not to dust. Many moons ago, we were sitting in church and there was a voice coming out of my hubby's beeper. Apparently he was supposed to respond and he didn't, I think that the sermon was interesting. Later on, during Sunday school class an elder poked his head in the door...
