The Saturday Picture Show, November 22, 2025

The day he dressed as a Blues Brother, did he dare to dream of being Pope one day? He got there!
I figure this chicken decided that this disguise would keep Colonel Sanders far away.
This is a color picture, but it's of a stage where they were presenting a play that was set in the days on black & white movies. 
Remember the early days of the Simpsons, around in 1989 or so, when everything Bart said became a sticker or magnet or patch? Here is an obvious counterfeit and poor translation of the one where Bart says, "Eat my shorts, man!" I just decided that my new favorite snappy phrase is going to be "Eat pant!"
At my advanced age, I just learned that the raised ridges on the back of ice scrapers are there to allow the poor frozen motorist to score the ice on his/her windows, the easier to break it up thereafter. Or, just wait until April.
"Hello, Produce Department? Do you have any apples?"
In Towson, over by Calvert Hall, there's a sign where two roads zip together. The sign says "Alternate merge area." It took me years to realize they meant to have us read "alternate" as a verb. I thought there was a choice about it. But how about this sign from Tulsa? By the time you figure out what they meant, you'll be in Oklahoma City.
These are the prettiest sunsets of the year, for me, and the great thing is, they're all over and done with by quarter to six!
I stared and stared at this picture until I realized that it shows a leaf that got a heart tattoo!
On this day in Dallas in 1963, the world we knew ceased to exist, replaced by a world of international evil and universal mistrust. They called the Kennedy Administration "1000 days of Camelot," because it truly seemed that we were living in an enchanted time. We've never had such a sweet time since, and I doubt that anyone or anything is going to bring that feeling back. I'm sorry if you missed it. You wouldn't believe how great it was.
