while we were waiting ....
465 new blogs were created before noon....this morning... @ blogspot. thanks to our niece in NC and cousin in Southern CA for encouraging
this creation.
..and, of course, our man in Denmark / Danmark.
I will be sharing items/info/humor/personal msgs. - for one reason or other.
if you are at all interested, bookmark the page and come up & see me sometime.........(if you get this reference: you are NOT too old to start your own blog.
if you are not familiar with this phrase...stick around, you may adopt historical reference points, to help make informed choices about your life and politics... like- which classic movie to request from Netflix)
This past week I "discovered" the 1943 adaptation of Hemingway's *For Whom the Bell Tolls*. Do you know what a Lobby card is? Final scenes: moving. Technicolor- you youngsters won't have to sit through 166 min of like, boring, blk and white.
Last night: a 2nd look at *Saving Pvt Ryan*. What a film. Everyone in the world should see this movie. Talk about historical reference points. It's too bad some tv stations refused to run it over the Veteran's Day holiday...I admit to covering my eyes to most of the opening scenes- it IS graphic- but as Rumsfeld said "You deal with the Army you have" - or did he say "got" ? "you deal with the army you got" ? In the midst of a war, grammar is insignificant I guess. Unless it changes the meaning of the sentence, of course.
Our usual Sunday morning ritual of reading the NYX, starting the crossword, has been upended today- for cleaning the filter on the furnace & creating a blog.
World Champion snowboarding aired yesterday. I don't know who won.
We'll find out. I did notice U Kentucky lost their game. sorry, Brent.
oh- thanks to Jan S for sending the Tens Unit- we'll see if we can figure out the directions...
