The Saturday Picture Show, October 26, 2024

 

There is a poem called "Fallow Fields" by H.E. Alexander. It starts off, 

The fallow fields of empty dreams

engulf my mind with barren schemes,

drying my thoughts like arid streams.

I look at fall quite differently. All spring and summer, the fields and forests gave us their bounty, and now it's their time to rest. It's also the best time to visit the fields!

How old am I? Old enough that this dental setup looks just the operatory of my boyhood dentist, Dr. Pullem, down on Plymouth Av. But for real, someone found this office abandoned in an old house in which the dentist, now presumably drilling in heaven, also had a homemade radio station. I guess that's where someone got the idea to play dentist office music....Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Christopher Cross. No Spooky Tooth, though.
We leaf-peepers wait all year for this!
If anyone was ever wondering, fingernail art shows up like this on an x-ray. Go ahead and make a costume out of this!
 She's Keiko Fukuda, she is 97, and she is now the first woman ever to earn a 10th degree black belt in Judo. I feel challenged, but not that much.

This woman, Sable Sky Atelier. of Fargo, N.D. has been asking people to send her their DVDs of the movie "Wedding Crashers." When she has collected 1,000, she is going to watch the movie, which she has never seen. She can't have my copy - the first ten minutes are too good to say goodbye to! I wonder if she's seen "Fargo."
The Ritter family continues to entertain. It all started with Tex, on the left, star of 459 Western movies and a few dozen singing cowboy hit country records. His son, John, lower right, was so beloved in "Three's Company, " and John's son, Jason, is on the new CBS version of "Matlock" which is so good that I can't even tell you why, but check it out. Starting with the pilot...
True facts, cool cats.
Great myths and fairy tales often told to mislead the working class, # 1.

Everything about this picture says "1973" - her glasses, she's smoking a cigarette, she's barefoot at an Allman Bros concert. Good times! You should have been there.
