When the creative juices aren't flowing, I usually have a few observations, quotes, and trivia questions at the ready for such times. It is, almost was, Fathers Day and I am a little spent. At a cook-out I gorged myself on three cheeseburgers, chips, fruit cubes, chocolate cake and ice cream, all which was washed down with a couple of cups of coffee. From 2:00 in the afternoon until 7:00 this evening, all of the above provided sustenance during the baseball game on one TV and golf on another.

Okay...I'll try these.
I am sure that Crabby Appleton was an enemy of Tom Terriffic, from my days as a kid...using my magic wipe-away screen to help save Tom. Mighty Manfred usually helped out a little. Dudley DoRight had Snidely, Popeye had Bluto, and Rocket J. Squirrel (yes, that's his official name) had Natasha and Boris. As a side note, I named my dog Natasha after her.
As for the lyrics to Mack the Knife...I never could understand the names of the women, but to the best of my hearing ability I would say...Sookie Tawdrey(?) *lol* Lottie Menure (?)*lol* and Old Lucy Brown. I think MacHeath was the one killed...but there was never a trace of red.
To answer the last (yea) question...you (D) Slightly irritated me because I have all the answers on the tip of my tongue and can't get them out until I have coffee.
Thanks for getting my brain going so early in the morning! I'll be thinking about that Mack the Knife song all day and I won't be able to sleep at work!
