There are no visual “trailers” this week, but I do warn you to be prepared for weirdness with next week’s new Arlo & Janis strips, available here and, of course, in newspapers everywhere. Well, not everywhere. If that were true, I’d be driving a much nicer vehicle.

Cool Laura. Talking about a trip to Memphis to Peabody and ducks but they don’t accept dogs so far as I know. So working on that idea too.
I got a bound journal tonight to start putting everyone in for future travels. It has a Katherine Hepburn quote I love. “If you follow all the rules you miss all the fun.”
Debbe, yep. I’ve been on Spotify for several years now. And Pandora too. And since I got Silver (which came with XM radio installed), I’ve been on a free trial of XM/Sirius and enjoying that too!
Quick explanation of my earlier comment on using phone for Wifi. Last two weeks my internet service has been going from bad to worse. Friday it stopped dead. Every time it has issues, I lose work time, which I am then expected to make up when service comes back. Louses up nights, weekends and plans for what to do when off work. So I was thinking I would not be able to get my last 8 hours in this week and lose a day’s pay. Then I remembered that my Fi cell service lets me use the phone as a Wifi hub without extra charge, just the cost of whatever data I use. So I worked my time out today using my phone as my internet connection. And I’m now visiting here the same way.
Just home from a concert of (mostly) Andrew Lloyd Webber music done by a very fine countertenor (ex-Chanticleer–that’s all the recommendation I need). Lovely show, good time. Lovely old re-furbished art deco theater downtown, also. (Speelczech didn’t like “theatre,” so I gave in and changed it.)
Here’s a fun skit from Studio C, something about the Dork Side Awakening…

Weird, my phone says it is 3.49 on main face but 4.50 everywhere else.
Happy daylight savings time!
Lucky moment. Bird flew in just as I got to Baltimore, one egg on the ‘nest’, other bird ready to leave, left, first bird onto egg. Apparent relative sizes [these uncooperative Peregrines refuse to stand shoulder to shoulder for comparison] suggest incomer was the tercel, relieved bird his mate, the falcon. Painless terminology lesson. Peace,

Cry “Havoc!”, and let slip the dogs of love.
I take it our noble leader quoteth Shakespeare.
2017 the year America was supposed to become great, again. Awake this morning to daylight savings time. So much for greatness.
I am confused and sleepy. So is Dickens.
I like Chanticleer, too. Anonymous 4, Sequentia, The King’s Singers, and The Waverly Consort are favorites, also.
Good Daylight Savings Time Day to all Villagers 🙂
Been busy changing times on Dad’s clock, especially the one that sounds like a train coming upon a crossing. He’s confused about when lunch is…I said when you are hungry.
He has several clocks from when he and my stepmother (RIP) owned a liqueur store. There’s the miniature grandfather’s clock with Jack Daniels’ name on it, a 5 ft long band wrist watch with the face advertising Miller Light, another with Joe Camel on it, and a turtle shell with Roman Numerals on it. A very nice wall clock (about a foot in diameter) with Chessie wrote on the face complete with a small pic of Chessie….there are more around here, but I ran out of batteries 🙂
Ian takes the night time watch, and Dad made his usual ‘trek’ to the kitchen for a cup of chocolate milk….I am so thankful Ian was up at that time (3ish), as Dad was headed for a bad fall and Ian caught him….Amen…….no more Lunesta!
Miss Charlotte, how are you doing? Has it been snowing up there?
Indy Mindy…how is your new job coming along…..I loves me some bacon. They have the precooked now, and all I do is zap it in microwave for 20 seconds….very good.
later…….
GM Old Bear 🙂
Mark, do you have a playlist on Spotify? Been listening to some who have posted some great songs….currently listening to a Bob Seger playlist by someone else.
….just for grins

These are all funny, esp. the one asking for a raise 🙂

And who had that camera in my bedroom of me doing leg lifts?
TR…cute, not seen the latest episode though of Star Wars. As a matter of fact I think the last time I was in a theater was to see the movie “Walk the Line”, which of course was excellent….still can’t believe Joaquin lost to Seymore ( Truman Capote) that year for best actor.
Not me, pussycat…there’s a song there and I won’t be posting it either.
GR 😉 you up yet?????
Jackie:
Forsooth.
I used to teach the Bard’s works, and I love all things British.
My ancestry is English, and a village in North Yorkshire has my surname.
Debbe 😉 I am, hon. Although I seem to have slept an hour longer this morning but do not feel like I did. Oh, wait.
Oh my. Tell me you have an English accent too and I may swoon.
Southern women still swoon, at least some of us do.
Debbe, your Dad’s guardian angel must have poked Ian’s guardian angel and said, “Come on. We’re going to be needed.”
Rather wish I did, actually.
But such was not my luck.
When I was in school most of my English and speech teachers tried to get rid of my Southern accent and replace it with a “universal accent.” That is the one where you “talk like the man on the six o’clock news.”
I don’t and a friend is trying to restore the Southern one. We should be proud of our region all accents I think. We are losing them too fast.
Opening some of my “midnight shopper” boxes sitting in living room. They are always surprises when I do. I never remember pushing the send button.
Power of suggestion? Whose?
