Here is the show we are putting on this December in our Library.

I showed this video to the family who will play the Cratchits.
There is no finer sound track than this one.

But we will do the original 1939 Orson Wells & Lionel Barrymore Radio script version.


 

 

Sue's Fall garden in Florida. 

Meanwhile we are just starting to rake leaves up here.

TO ALL MY INTELLIGENT FRIENDS:
I am sending this only to my smart friends. I could not figure it out. My first thought was wrong and I had to look at the answer. See if you can figure out what these seven words all have in common...
1. Banana
2. Dresser
3. Grammar
4. Potato
5. Revive
6. Uneven
7. Assess

Are you peeking or have you already given up?

Give it another try – look at each word carefully.

You'll kick yourself when you discover the answer. This is so good.
 

No, it is not that they all have at least 2 double letters.

Answer in next week's Best Emails!

 

 

10/19/12 Thanks Jim and Mom for both answering this:
Pete,
take the first letter of each word...pull it aside and save it, THEN take the
remaining letters and flip them around, forward to backwards and stick them back onto the first letter
and... there you go..... same word..

 

Joanne Bob and Kate had a nice time at their nephew (and cousin's) wedding.

 

 

This video reminds me of Dad's old orange bucket loader in the pond in the 1950's before Wetlands regulations.

For all you pet lovers:


 

I would like to share an experience with you about drinking and driving.

As you well know, some of us have been lucky not to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the various social sessions over the years.

A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends and had a few too many beers and then topped it off with a margarita.  Not a good idea.

Knowing full well I was at least slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before: I took a taxi home.

Sure enough I passed a police road block but because it was a taxi, they waved it past.

I arrived home safely without incident, which was a real surprise.

I have never driven a taxi before and am not sure where I got it.
