Even Hillary.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, that takes me back, too, Amoeba.<BR/><BR/>Your dad was wise for that. My parents' tv faced away from the door to the tv room so to watch contraband, I had to make a full 120-degree arc to get behind the couch. I rarely made it and on the occasions I did, I suspect condescension. BUT! That was how I discovered Police Woman and Angie Dickinson who have never left me.<BR/><BR/>Nessa, we're all very proud.

The wall jutted out just a bit at the top of the staircase and I would sit there, three or four steps down, and gleefully peek around the edge and watch, "Bananaza." My brothers and sisters gathered round, too. One night while perched on my step, leaning just a bit forward to see 'round the corner, I fell asleep.<BR/><BR/>"Fell" is an action word, and it acted on me. I tumbled down the stairs -- my brother and sisters chasing after to "catch the baby". And that ended ALL stealth television watching. Dad put a mirror up over the TV so he could view "Bananaza" and the staircase, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11152564.post-20201260579472761182009-03-11T09:24:00.000-07:002009-03-11T09:24:00.000-07:00Happy Birthday, Mule!

There are thousands of mule bones and skeletons lining the White Pass out of skagway. <BR/>We traveled up the pass on the White Pass Railroad train, those poor mules didn't have a chance.<BR/><BR/>Of course a lot did make it with their miner 'friends' who were intent upon staking a claim to their fortune during Klondike Gold Rush.<BR/><BR/>Such is a Mules Tale in the Real Life.<BR/>..<BR/>Did I make 'first comment?'<BR/>..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.com
