Isn't it fun to take a walk in the woods? Think of how lovely places like this will be in just a few weeks! And think of how much work it took to make these great steps! That's a lot of lumber and garden spikes all up in there!
On this date...September 30, 1955, actor James Dean died in a car crash in California, becoming the first celebrity to become more famous dead than alive. He was a mumbly actor whose acting style was then followed by hundreds of other surly, mumbly actors. He made three big movies: "Rebel Without A Cause," "East of Eden," and "Giant." Dean was 24 and speeding like a fool on a public highway when he crashed his Porsche into a Ford driven by a student named Donald Turnupseed.
Here's the receipt from when "Jimmy" Hendrix bought a guitar, an amp, and assorted gear just two months after the pinnacle of his renown at Woodstock. Within a year, he too would be gone.
Caption from the site where I saw this: "This is my brother Frank eating a frankfurter at the Frankfurt station in Frankfurt."
I have to figure that someone in the Hallmark store put this in the wrong slot.
I happen to know a lot of people who either live here, or should.
I remember the first Ranchero I ever saw (Chevy had a 1/2 car, 1/2 pickup called the El Camino.) I thought it was the coolest thing on the road, and it just still might be.
You can think you're cool, but Joe Namath (shown here with Alabama coach Bear Bryant) wrote the book on cool. Roll Tide!
