For long, happy lives together:
Nervous
brides clutching bouquets, walking down the aisle. Even
more nervous grooms with weakened knees as the eyes interlock before they join
hands at the alter. The hearts of the congregation pump harder waiting for the words
that will complete this most beautiful of moments for lovers all. The quivering
“I do’s” that come from deep inside the being of two committed to each other.
It is not a time for bravado, but a time for emotions to be freed, for all to
see. And then, with happy, radiant smiles as two walk together into a beautiful
new life. And the applause is loving too.
I
have a friend, a really nice guy, a cardiologist who
is quite smart. But, it’s his street smarts that sometimes get in the way.
While in the Caribbean a week or so ago, he jumped off a boat into the water to
a depth of 10 feet with an eighteen inch snorkel…and started breathing! He
surfaced rapidly, gasping, “I seem to be getting a lot of salt water through
this thing! Yikes! I guess he missed snorkeling 101.
The
first time that little green Google/Android character
jumped onto my screen, I thought for sure I had acquired an ugly virus.
The
Question:
Who is this person: Penelope Wilson? Bonus: Chuck Barris was prolific TV
producer. Nam a couple of his hits.
The
Headlines:
--Down Dow After US Misses New Jobs Target By A Lot;
Worst In Five Years.
--Taliban Having More Success In Afghanistan After
Changing Tactics.
--Left Unable To Admit Why Venezuela Is
Collapsing; Margaret Thatcher: “Socialism Only Lasts Until It Runs Out Of Other
People’s Money.”
--Wal-Mart testing Uber, Lyft For On-Line Grocery
Deliveries.
Few
companies have screwed up a strong positive image more
than United Airlines.
Hillary
may have a lot of experience, but it is her
judgment that is the problem.
I
think I’m the something “Old” at the wedding in
which I will be officiating at on Saturday.
Do
you think the people will eventually rebel against the Nanny
state, or are salt and sugar destined to
become black market items. Do we have a prison system big enough to hold all of
the potential lawbreakers? “Wadda ya in for?” “Salt”
It’s
going to be hard in the future finding or preserving an
athletic team nickname. We all know the many changes involving Native American
references, and you can be sure that the animal rights people will be out to
eliminate their pets from being associated with people who play sports. So my
answer is to name teams after politicians. Nobody would care about the Pittsburgh
Pelosies or the Chattanooga State Clintons or the Tampa Bay Trumps. Wait a
minute, Trump isn’t a politician.
Sanders:
“The Energizer Bernie”.
Programmed
Hate, Department:
There is growing evidence that many of these
protestors like the veterans outside trump Tower are fully a part of a Hillary
campaign operation. After several denials Alexander McCoy, the head Vet
protestor and Hillary supporter, finally admitted that the Clintons were more
involved than he originally said, and in fact their campaign people organized
the conference call that brought the group together. They are taking closer
looks at these so-called spontaneous protests like New Mexico, and last night
in San Jose where protestors actually attacked
defenseless Trump supporters leaving the auditorium, In politics, don’t believe
what you see.
I
still wonder exactly who these Uber and Lyft
drivers are. Do I want these non-employees of the ride share companies visiting
my house during the day? Everything is as simple as it looks.
The
Parking Lot will be back in earnest next week.
This minister thing takes a lot of time.
Reading
Between the Lines Movie Reviews:
--This premiere of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Out Of The Shadows is very appropriate since the groom tomorrow was totally
wrapped up in the foursome nearly 22 years ago when he was five. But the movie
isn’t that hot, and they just have to hope a lot of nostalgia driven people
show up. Better than the previous TMNT though.
--There is great chemistry between Emilia Clarke
and Sam Chaflin in Me Before You. The audiences seem to like this one about a sometimes
awkward romance between a wealthy, paralyzed Londoner and the awkward, quiet,
contented country girl he hires as a caretaker. I think you get the picture
The
Answer:
Downton Abby lovers will remember British actress
Penelope as Isobel Crawley. You also probably enjoyed her in the two “Best Exotic
Marigold Hotel movies and a pretty good small movie, Match Point. She won
numerous awards for her work on the London stage. Tristin Rogers Bonus: Chuck
Barris created a couple of really good brainless shows that became big hits:
The Dating Game and The Newly Wed game. He also created one of the worst shows
going, “The Gong Show” (Which sadly, AGT tries to emulate a little too often.).
There
are no good synonyms for “Lovers”, because that word says
it all.
Look
into somebody’s eyes, and have a great weekend…E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!
