Wasn’t the beach fun? Don’t you miss the beach? Lying in the sun with a cold beverage, working on a sexy tan, taking the occasional briny dip, clinging to that special someone as you float weightlessly together. Then, the dermatologist is saying, “We’d better remove that and have it looked at.” And it’s a lot hotter than it used to be. And the sand! Where was all this sand before!? And cool sheets are so much more enticing than sticky salt water. Things change. Of course, I’m talking about Arlo and Janis!

Did I mention that Ghost sweetie is taking me to a dance gala, two straight days? Tonight and tomorrow. It is actually multi nights but if he goes two nights in a row he will have increased his attendance at ballet by twice fold! It is contemporary ballet, the kind of erotic semi nekkid same done without benefit of a pole.
The kind Edda dances on 9CL. Not your grandmother’s Swan Lake.
Good morning Villagers…..
… sage advice for the day 🙂

Congrats cep. My wife and I will be married 35 on Monday.
Old Old Joke: Woman married 55 years is asked if she ever thought of divorce. “Divorce? Never.” “Murder, yes”

Congratulations cep. That’s nice to hear.
David, when Larry and Jerry first pitched Footfall to their publishers, they were told to forget about the aliens and just write about the asteroid. They changed it to a comet and ended up with Lucifer’s Hammer. Later, they went back and wrote the alien invasion story that they’d wanted to in the first place, and got two best sellers instead of one. By the way, the guitar playing biker you find in both was a good friend of mine, the late Frank Gasparik, and a lot of the other characters were real people (mostly SF fans) as well.
I wonder what kind of voice June Foray would have given Ludwig!
Sideburns, nice to know. “Harry Reddington” was one of my favorite characters. I especially liked the use of the relatively new information from Voyager about the “cause” of the braided F Ring in Footfall.
About to head for Tulsa for an evening at the ballet (aka Mostly Nekkid Pole Dancers Performing Without Poles™). I’ll give you my impression of it later.
Thanks, Steve & Laura, for the thoughts.
Remember the discussion about candlestick phones?

Congratulations, ex-prof and missus!

Nice one! I don’t think I ever came across one like that.
I wonder if there were discussions on which way the ear piece was placed on the cradle
(up or down) like which way the TP roll is placed. In a playful cat house – flap to the wall,
so it does not easily unwind.
Luann’s mom said compromise – change every time you change the roll.

Bob in Orland Park, somebody’s selling that on local Tulsa Craigslist. I never saw one before either.

Back from the ballet performance in Tulsa. I’ll report on it tomorrow, as only Ghost can.
We went to my first visit to The Cheesecake Factory for a late supper. It was much nicer than the one on The Big Bang Theory. The food was very good, even though we ordered from the low-cal “Skinnylicious” portion of their menu. On the other hand, none of the wait staff looked like Penny…but one customer was a reasonable facsimile.
Wide awake. Can’t sleep. Decidedto read the comments. No fair, Mark . I almost laughed out loudover that newspaper article. I would have woke everyone up.
Reticulated giraffe and [I think] Thomson’s gazelles. Peace,

Where is everyone today? Laura may be catching up on her sleep, but the rest of the village ought to be showing up.
Ghost and I
Congratulations, CEP!! We are definitely same generation with y’all. We will be at 54 years on August 4.
Ghost and I are here eating Subway teriyaki chicken and sharing.
