The Saturday Picture Show, December 9, 2023

 

My dear departed Dad gave me two pieces of advice that I still tote around and repeat often. One was, "They can't make you do it, but they can make you wish you had!" and the other was, "Never give a woman you love any gift that has an electric cord." These have held me in good stead for all these years.
I notice that yesterday was Jim Morrison's birthday, according to this old license. It was also the birthday of Sammy Davis, Jr, but we don't have his license to prove it.
Doug! What did you do to incur the wrath of your entire neighborhood?
You know the Elf On The Shelf; well this is Elvis on The Shelvis at my old office, sporting the hat I made him for the season. It's still the only item of apparel I have ever made, unless you count cutoffs.
We're looking for someone with the first name of "Leon" to take this letter set from a lady who ordered letters to spell out NOEL on her hearth. Since the shipper made the mistake, she's not out anything, and just wants to share this with someone by the right name.
Fire engines and Santa just go together like milk and cookies.
We have to remember always that not everyone is having a holly jolly Christmas. There is help for them, if it gets to that point, at 988. And for the rest of us, let's all try to put an arm around a friend's shoulder if we sense that they need one.
There are millions of them now in show business, but Zsa Zsa Gabor was the first person to be famous for being famous. She couldn't act, sing, or dance, so naturally she became an actress in cheeseball movies that mainly played as the 'B' feature at Drive-In theatres. Pronounce that first name "ZHA-zha," if you will, please.
That's the way! Record everything! You never know, you might want to see an old Regis show in 8 years.
Well, he had to take the Minnie head off so he could hoove on a Marlboro, you know. I thought Disney had rules against this sort of thing...
