I used to loooooove to watch Bozo the Clown especially for the Grand Prize Game. You know you watched it too! I remember sending in postcards in hopes to be the at-home player. Never got it. Sigh. But throwing ping pong balls into methodically placed buckets to win prizes leading UP TO A SCHWINN bicycle?! What more could any kid ask for. I guess that explains my inexorable love for SkeeBall. When I finish my master's, I may just reward myself with a SkeeBall machine. This week has been a big loss - George Carlin, Bozo, and today Jesse Helms. Although I much prefer the comedian and the clown to the politician. But RIP all. I hope you're playing SkeeBall in Heaven.
I'm sitting at the Detroit airport waiting on my flight to Buffalo to visit Cherie, Doug and Alyssa. I'm geeked about the fireworks tomorrow night; they are sensational. And the food in Buffalo is a close second. There might be triple Zumba's next week. We're also going to visit Belhurst, an old castle near the Fingerlakes. It looks like a gorgeous area. Lancaster, where they live, is a really chill place. I'm looking forward to a very low-paced long weekend. And did I mention the food?... WEGMANS!
Let me just say that here at the Detroit airport, there are several young strapping pilots without rings on their left hands that I think are in need of having a conversation with me, they just don't know it yet...
Whoopsy, it's almost time to board. Gotta go. Maybe my pilot will be young and strapping??? :-)))
