Oh my goodness. What a story. 😢 Thank you for posting this. My father worked for a major U.S. railway company and he would've so appreciated this info and seeing the gravestone (if he didn't already know it, being the history buff he was).

At your own pace, John. People should understand you're recovering. 🤗
I still have my View-Master projector. That would be handy for these lessons. Think of these discs as the precursor of CDs and DVDs. Just as the transistor radio was a physical / technical model for the iPod. And of course we thank Gene Roddenberry for the flip phone. And on it goes.... 😊
SPJ has joined a coalition of press freedom, civil liberties organizations and journalism educators in a letter urging officials in Kenton County, Kentucky, to drop the charges pending against journalists Madeline Fening and Lucas Griffith. 🔗Read the full letter: www.spj.org/spj-coalitio...
My very first groovy lipsticks and I LOVED them!!
Are YOU one of them? SPEAK. LOUDLY. Not just post on social media.
Lucky we have @governorwalz.mn.gov being a CONSISTENT voice of reason, even if he was your second choice.... 😏
Fingers crossed PBS can afford the series now.... 😔
(There's a smiley face because I just love John SO much.)
These were cards in the boxes?
Wonderful view!
There's always that big stretch before the ask....
Some people never know.... 👍🏻 ♥️
Almost snorted my Yorkshire Decaf and Hobnob!!! 😳 💗 @teatles.bsky.social
Must be from "overseas."
The pub date.... 🎂
Just WHY? Was margarine not available in sticks or tubs?
Several companies had iterations of this not-so brilliant idea. I recall we tried one but it wasn't Libby's. Mostly tomato paste.
"Jim Acosta" followed me last week. Really? Me? No way was it JIM. Reported it immediately.
It can happen in a split second, especially with puppies....
I bought the green crew neck (sized up for a slouchy look) with fall leaves. LOVE it. Puppy-soft lining.Great quality. EVERY time I wear it, complete strangers comment; that gives me an opening to tell them about Matt's posts and the 15/10 charity. Buy the hat to spread the word & contribute. 🐶 💓
Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading. Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own. Just. Keep. Reading.
🇬🇧 So nice to see a female who served her country on the front duly honoured.
Yee haw!
Duh — just saw the imprint in the corner! (but I know my Bullwinkle!)
Is that pic from a "Rocky & Bullwinkle" episode?
Beautiful.
And the Good King Charlie can't kowtow low enough, I'm sad to say.
🍻
I love my very old "Beatles 'Round the World" magazine that showcased their Sweden tour. The colour registration / print job was AWFUL, and it was sooo expensive ("50 cents!!" my Mom complained!!) but it was my first Beatle magazine, before I even owned a record, I think.... [Pic from Etsy]
I care and I say "well done". ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ ☕️
To those who instigated and supported the CPB cuts that were vital in the financial support of local stations: what you've done is unforgivable.
Guessing the Japan, Philippines, etc. tour, based on John's silky shirt?
Attention all #Apple Store employees!
Congrats, Laken and Jillian! 🪶🖊️
I'd forgotten about that stuff!
Magic schmagic....
"I'm Down" at Shea '65 was my fave footage in the entirety of Beatle concert footage. ♥️
OMG! 😂
😢
Was happy to see this one after reading your weekly email last night. 😅 xo
Scary times.... Just like today, in fact. 🤔
Good guess, but as Paul is sitting on his own, George is sans sitar, I might guess "I'm Looking Through You" (with the false start 😉) or most probably, "Michelle."
😊
💛🧡💜💚🩷❤️
I have forgotten most all the VP candidates who weren't on the "winning," tickets in years past, but I will ALWAYS remember Tim Walz. ♥️
By the look on John's face, the pot handle wasn't insulated too well.... 🔥
Prince Valiant. That was one I could do without but I always read the thing....
Excellen!
Want it. Want it. Want it.
You must try to return. Lindisfarne is on my bucket list. The Ecclesiastical History of the English People is one of my favourite books.
Pillsbury!
🤗
I immediately thought of the David Jason Tv adaption upon seeing this illustration.
That's lovely. 😊
I'm just going by George's appearance, but they certainly could be going down ol' Memory Lane. Might explain the look on George's face. 😁
We always came in peace. 😉
Nope.
I'm cracking up!!!🤣
And that's PROPER toast. Not the "sponge" bread mostly tolerated in the U.S. 😏
Well, this is a great start! Thanks so much for sharing. (Kenilworth is as far north as I've been on my trips over so your posts are fascinating.)
Ye gods!! 🙈
Lovely idea.
Nah, he's just concentrating on how the tune and lyrics need to be changed.... George was the only one who seemed to care about Ringo's compositions. He knew how it felt to be ignored. 😔
But it's SO practical, Poppy! 😀
Let's all pitch in and buy this for Handsome! He deserves it! (In a good way. 😊)
Raw eggs. Right.
🔥 🔥
Make mine a draft Bass.
Nothing is unbelievable now; just unbearable.... 😡
I was going to post that the girl looks like Susan Oliver, and darn, if she isn't listed.
I'm going to venture a guess that the Mystery Guest was one of the guys in the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.
Whoops! But not the "red coded" version in my arsenal.
Both on my counter and in my pantry in the Southern U.S. !! I brew the Gold only occasionally (mornings and afternoons only!), and for no longer than three minutes. Superb flavor, in my Beatles or BBC mugs. 😊 And especially in my eight-cup Brown Betty. Had Jackson's of Piccadilly since I was 12!
Someone wanted them to appear veddy English....
Wow!
My brand of choice (decaf and Gold) since Jackson's is sadly defunct. U.S. brands just will not do.
Handwritten — so poignant. Just as meaningful as any engraved plaque.... Bless.
Imagine being ill with all that ruckus going on....
What a metaphor....
Who or what in the name of all that's holy thought this was a good idea....
What an absolute treasure....
♥️
This is insane....
The "go-ahead-and-beat-me-up-now" playground ensemble.
Very sobering — and necessary — listening. No one handled the tragedy in the media better than Art. This show and the subsequent two nights' coverage are in the National Archive (unless some nutcase wanted to erase THIS history....). #artbell #September11 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...
It almost looks like your artwork. 🎨
Very nice. 🌞
"Stereo-Orthophonic"! (Yeah, I read the small print. Fascinating marketing copy in those days....)
This is how my parents used to say goodbye to my dogs, loved them like grandkids. They were keeping my first girl for me and drove 300 miles in a freaking blizzard to a specialist vet to set her broken leg, only to find out she had bone cancer. Bet that grandma would do the same for Wally.
Why ruin the already perfect Scotch Egg?!
S[HE] SAID: "I know what it's like to be dead, I know what it is to be sad...." per Peter Fonda's tripped out conversation to John Lennon during a bizarre party that later became a cool song.
Never hurts to be be ready, even as the season SEEMS to be winding down. There always seems to be a surprise system lurking in the wings as late as October..... 🌀 #hurricane #evacuationplans #tropicalstorms
Wouldn't want my garment colour to "crock," either.... WHAT does that even mean? It means that, say, the dress colour of this material won't (or didn't) transfer to another fabric it comes in contact with. You're welcome.
Two NYC tragedies combined in a single image. My heart breaks for both every day. Never forget.... 💔
YOU irk me. BLOCKED.
It's really only J&Y bundled up . . . but London used to get chilly even in summer (daytime, sun out) in the 1960s & 70s (at least when I was there). I don't doubt the need for coats at all back then. Climate change is real!
Birthday cake toppers. 🎂
🥰
This will have to do ya. The original postcard graced every office in every job I ever had. No tea cup visible but no doubt waiting in the wings (😉). ☕️🫖
