    Worst one ever for me was my aunt. My uncle died in an accident. My mom and sister went to the funeral pallor together. I was going to meet them there. It was before any visitors other than family could go. I walk in all alone. Sign the book and walk toward the casket looking at my aunt. She was sitting with a tissue in her hand and kind of staring into space. I kneel down and start praying and all of a sudden my aunt lets out this mournful howl and starts yelling at me, Get away from that casket. Its not him...its not him. I get up and can see my mom and sister behind my aunt looking horrified. I sat down next to my aunt to console her. It gets worse.
    Im consoling her and my cousin, her son, walks in with two guards and in handcuffs because he was in prison. Federal prison let him be out of prison for a few hours with guards to go to the wake. No clue how or why but there he was. They take the handcuffs off. He's at my uncles casket and he reaches in to hug him and the casket starts rocking. The undertaker and his sons scramble with the guards already scrambled and they are saying, let him go. Meaning stop trying to drag your dead father out of that casket. Im laughing now but Mother of God it was nightmare material for the ages.

    All three are dead now. This song will always remind me of her. Its so true.

    Half is good. That means you only have half to go.
    Ive overdosed on Hallmark happy ending movies. Can you tell?
    The weather here has been nice. Cool breeze and clear skies. No real heat yet. The garden is appreciating the weather. Its growing better than last year.

    Cary Grant never won an Oscar? No kidding. I didnt know that about Cary Grant. Its cool you know all that. Thanks for posting it.
    Thing about Cary Grant that was so striking to me was the tone of his voice. It was very distinct. Also the limited move roles Ive watched that he was in, pretty much made him seem like a regular Joe.

    Bar Fly, pay your rent because your Land Lady has to pay the taxes, insurance, water, sewer and upkeep on the house.
    Being a Land Lady ruined this song for me. lol

    As opposed to Fake baseball like what Sachel Page preformed
    between innings with his wild funny pitches.
    Goofy Knuckleball.Raz-a-ma Tazz spitball.Slow ball that was so slow
    it seemed liked a batter might just as soon take a nap.
    Kinda like how Posters must feel When I ain't around to liven
    things up.

    What exactly is " upkeep on the house ". I kinda thought builders had to
    follow code.Like make sure a house could stand on it's own.
    Not like some Cub scout troop out in the woods camping with
    leftover musty tents that won't stay up.

    They are beautiful dogs.
    He looks like a dog we had except ours had a brown patch on his eye. He disappeared and a neighbor told me, "Well sometimes dogs get where they shouldn't be.." I knew then I would never see my dog again.

    No one thinks about the taxes and insurance you have to pay because they rent..or the damage they do, except the landlady/landlord whatever.

    Upkeep is paying the plumber because you dumped grease down the sink and clogged the pipes. Upkeep is saving what is not spent to run the house so a new roof can be put on the house when that time comes. Upkeep is repairing soffits because the squirrels were wanting to make a home there. Things like that.

    Fair to Middlin' is usually more durable than "all good things".

    I asked the guys if they wanted to go to the river for a picnic and it was a yes. I fixed some chicken, potato salad, pickles, tea, cucumbers and watermelon we drove to the river and had lunch. Nice to be out for a change.

    Replica of Pete the Pup { Our Gang Comedy Dog }.
    Did that Dog ever tangle up skits.Which could be good
    in a comedy.Not like Late Night Hosts Jimmy Kimmel and
    Stephen Colbert.Who may need a doggie treat to stay sharp.
    Maybe s'not.

    Happy Fathers Day, everyone. If your father is still alive please call or visit him . . . even if you’re not on the greatest of terms.

    Bunch of Daddy's boys - their Mom's were clearly too distracted to contribute much DNA to the end product.
