Oh Harvest Moon Part 2


Inspiring quotes about the moon:

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon,
my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
Mohandas Gandhi

If the Sun and Moon should ever doubt,
they'd immediately go out.
William Blake

You moon the wrong person at an office party
and suddenly you're not "professional" any more.
Jeff Foxworthy

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

Damn! That was the wuote I was going to use.
Oh well. I'll just listen to it instead …
Great harmonies from Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor, too.

Yeah, it is the one that comes to mind when looking at that big, big moon.

OK, onto Maryann.

Oh come on! All this talk about moon quotes, and neither of you laughed at the Foxworthy thing. Maybe Old Knudson is right--maybe I am a simple soul. I thought it was funny, anyway, in the context of the other quotes at least.

I did laugh, Robyn, but when I went to comment with a hee hee, I got distracted by Sassy having out-cooled me with Neil Young.
Drat!

Well, OK then. I was beginning to think my sense of humor was so off that no one else would even chuckle.

I laughed really hard, actually. It just didn't go with Neil. I also thought about Denny's. I hate Denny's. It's disgusting. This one time, however, I went there in college with a friend to study (it was open all night). We were a little punchy, and we couldn't stop laughing at this dish: Moons Over My Hammy.

Cindy Loo Who In October

A couple of years ago, I posted an image of the original Seuss illustration as compared to the TV cartoon image, and for some reason, that post is bringing in the crowds, relatively. Maybe it's the weather. It isn't even November yet, and already we've had frost and have had to dust off our winter coats. When it gets cold like this, I start to think about Christmasy things like listening to Nat King Cole and decorating the tree. It's ironic because I am offended when retailers start pushing holiday stuff early, but I don't mind my own private celebrations. When my sister and I were much younger and still living with our parents, we would pick a day in July, close the curtains to darken the ...

The Ultimate Storyteller—in Life AND in Death

I wrote about The Autobiography of Mark Twain in yesterday's edition of Small Town Newspaper. You can read it here , if you want. This is the photograph I had in mind while I read Clemens' dictations. He really was a masterful storyteller, even when rambling on about the poorly designed door knobs in Florence or in describing the Countess Massiglia, who he described as a "pestiferous character." About her, he said, “She is excitable, malicious, malignant, vengeful, unforgiving, selfish, stingy, avaricious, coarse, vulgar, profane, obscene, a furious blusterer on the outside and at heart a coward.” And I laughed out loud.
