Good Morning Marg VistaBill And all the Vagabonds

Good morning guys!

Bad storm here…power out for several hours…but I made it here!

Tripped over my own feet comming in. Had to help me up and get dusted off. But I am here,so …………..

A GREAT BIG,H, AND A GOOD MORNING TO ALL VAGABONDS, AND HANGERS-ON

GM early bird Specials last chance for me to see the meteor shower, it perfect sky , not big sky but crystal clear so I’ am off to check it out over the lake

@Montana Lady, anything new on Bonnie and Clyde?

Good Morning you fellow Vagabonds!

Can’t stay up for the late arrivals tonight. Good night all!

Thank you again, MT, JCVV, for your kind words. I like the oldies a lot, just to hear the ladies sigh.

Ladies…..Hmm. I remember one as if she were here………..

That old black magic has me in it’s spell That old black magic that you weave so well. Those icy fingers up and down my spine, That same old witchcaft when your eyes meet minf

Slim, I saw the planets here, now I’ll have to look for meteors.

Goodnight, my friends, sleep well.

SweetBill….latest news is that they were last seen in Arkansas robbing a beauty salon. He dyed his hair, and she bleached hers. Go figure!!!! That’s 1600 miles from Glacier where they were last sighted.

Stay tuned…..

Super frustrated, gang…..

This is just another night of heavy cloud cover. Can’t see the Persoid meteor shower again! Tonight was the optimum viewing night. But, hopefully, we’ll be able to see something as we exit the trail……..within the next two weeks. we did see two really bright meteorites last week….before all our thunderstorms. They even seemed to be skipping into our atmosphere. Very exciting!!!

Got rousted out of bed at least two hours early. Going to make my tea, then off to see that “Sandman” again.

Muy buernos días, gente. La comida instante de la máquina…

Hey, y’all. I just read that the cartoonist who does Cathy is retiring. Hooray! Yippee! Now I wish Momma would get cancelled.

Slim, now I’m condemned to hear Sinatra in my head all day. Or is that blessed?

Try this one (from a Glen Miller oldie):

If I didn’t know that the roses grow, Then I wouldn’t know that the roses grow.

(IMHO one of the dumbest lines ever written!) Oh, no! Now I’ve got that unnamed tenor voice in my head!!!

Those songs that get in your head and are unshakeable for long periods of time. popping into your head again and again are called “ear worms”. I have problems with them myself. :-))

JanCinVV: That was “Jukebox Saturday Night” in which the Glen Miller singers mimiced and parodied several other singers. The one you quoted was a parody of the Ink Spots.

Very interesting, LOVE TRAIN wormed into my head so bad I utubed it to a icon on my computer…………..

very good brownceb. I have a Glen Miller CD in my car player and that’s one of the songs (along with Pennsylvania 6-5000, Chatanooga Choo-Choo and, of course, In the Mood). Love It! And yes, it pre-dates me by a few years. I could quote all of the words of C C-C if you want…….

@ JanCinVV:

Actually, I was thinking of Louie Prima and Keeley Smith. Had the album back in ‘58-59. I really liked their verson of “That Old Black Magic”.. They heat it up!

Just checkin’.

Still checking?

How about KATE SMITH??!!

One of my very own favorites…

Kate Smith sings, “God Bless America”…

Very patriotic! I was a young child when I first heard it.

Interesting find over on yesterday’s. Jenny”..

Down towards the bottom of the comments is a long one critisizing the comments and be-littling the strip.

The next comment is from the guy that does the strip. who without acturally using the word, called the critic a hypocrite’

The critics displsy name is flanders22. He sounds like an old ‘“friend” of ours, LS?

Slim………What is “Jenny”?? Is that a comic?? I tried looking for it, but couldn’t find it.

Ah, never mind. You mean Yenny.

I’ve never read that one before.

I’m pretty sure “flanders22” is no one that I knew.
