The Saturday Picture Show, March 9, 2019

The setting here is China, where a 1,000 year old ginko tree drops a golden carpet of leaves every year around this time. I wonder why there's not a carryout called "The Golden Carpet." Oh, never mind.

The good people at the Farmer's Almanac want to remind you that it's time to put out seeds and start germination. Remember, for what you'll pay to grow a beanstalk, you could buy a lot of beans from the farmer down on the corner.

I don't know what flower this is (some taxonomist, please let us know) but it sure looks like an eyeball. Oh, maybe it's an iris.

I don't have fox news to share; I'm sorry.

On the right, say hi to Tanner Wilson, and that's Brandon Qualls on the left. Both of these dudes are seniors at Caddo High School in (where else) Caddo, Oklahoma. Tanner saved his money earned at a local car repair shop to buy his best fried Brandon this motorized wheelchair. Brandon had been using a hand-push chair for years, but, as he told News9 TV, "My arms would get really tired." Tanner said, "I just felt like I needed to do it. ... Brandon, he's just always been there for me."

There is always something to make us all look up and smile!

In case you are time traveling and heading back to Scotland in 1948, here's the train schedule.  Now, if a train leaves Inverkeithing at 4:37....

This is the interview people talked about all week. G. King talked to R. Kelly, who can't remember having illicit relations with underage women. You can tell that Gayle is, in fact, a mother, because when he really became obstreperous, she calmed him right down just by the way she intoned his name..."ROOOBBBBBert..."

Not a very good picture, but I remain fascinated with this woman. Her name was Hilda Chester, and she was a stalwart fan of the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball club, and attended all the home games, ringing a cowbell during Dodger rallies, and placing a placard in front of her seat so that other fans at Ebbets Field would know where all the commotion was coming from.
