The Saturday Picture Show, August 1, 2020

Food trucks are the big thing now, and you have to figure, when this one got to Woodstock in 1969, they had trouble cutting one pie into 395,783 slices to feed the crowd.

You summer lovers can hate me, but I show this just to prove that the time for cider doughnuts and raking leaves and wearing hoodies again is coming soon.
It seems to happen to me all the time - you're taking out a DOA light bulb, and you come away with the bulb in your hand and the base still in the socket. Don't reach in there with the needlenose pliers unless you really feel like getting shocked. Cut a potato in half and schmooze it onto the base, twist off. Serve with butter and sour cream.
On this date in 1971, two concerts took place at Madison Square Garden in NY for the benefit of the people of Bangla Desh, so torn by genocide. An All-Starr (Ringo) cast assembled, including George Harrison, Leon Russell and Bob Dylan.
IF there is trick or treating this year, I hope that some kids I know will Van Gogh this way.
I'm not much for metaphors and symbols, but this photo from the Detroit Tigers' home opener, with no crowd allowed and a huge storm brewing over a major league ballgame, says a lot.
You can go here to see this story if you take a notion to do so. A guy came across this negative photo of a cat in a time capsule, and had it developed. The negative is 120 years old. Cats haven't changed much, have they?
