today's visit to Cleocatra Cat Cafe was very calm, quiet & soothing as everyone was probably peopled out / inclined to heavy napping, but eye contact was made, and I fell in love with all of them

saw The Running Man (it's ok) and then looked up the 1982 source material, Stephen King's pseudonymous novel . . . and Holy Smokes, that tagline should smite someone or other on the spot

I've a headful of 60s and 70s TV theme tunes I'd like to give away to someone, no need to return.
George: "He's giant sized! Some surprise! You'll enjoy the time you spend in George's alpine home!"
Flipper: "They call him Flipper! Flipper! Faster than lightning! No one you see is smarter than he!"

sometimes I recall fondly my driver's test at age 16: when I was complimented on my hand over hand steering, I said, well, that's because I've been helping drive a combine this fall & I immediately (or so it seems) passed . . . & now I recognize that was probably the high point of my life
