RIP: SUZE ROTOLO

Who? Why the girl on the cover of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, of course. Died in Feb. but not sure of what. Funny how you have to pick up info from the internet, because it sure never made it to the local paper here(of course).

FLYING WEIZEN

Found this picture on my computer, Mick Box from Uriah Heep levitating a glass of Hefeweizen with only his guitar power & forefinger!!

Rock on Mick, and we'll all hoist a glass...

RIP: JANE RUSSELL

At the age of 89, though I would have guessed she was older. Made famous by Howard Hughes who put her in movies and had a bra specially designed for her. Made movies with the likes of Bob Hope & Marilyn Monroe and pretty much retired from films in her 30s.

So here's to you Jane (and your two best assets also...)

REALLY?? I MEAN REALLY??? (3)

 And now coming home it's $3.45/gallon...really??

REALLY??...REALLY???(2)

WOW!!! & Last night it was $3.35/gallon...boy that restless gas is
really something...

FORTUNATELY, I'LL BE RETIRED BY THEN

THE FLASH (GREEN, NOT RED)

These incredible pix were taken by the late Jean Adam, who was killed, along with her husband and two other Americans, by Somali pirates. She had many more fascinating photos of places they traveled on their website, which has now been taken down.

These two photos were part of a series taken of the island of Tonga, and shows the green flash that people talk about seeing from Key West in the right conditions. Always wondered if it was true, so I'm guessing it is after seeing these photos. It's too bad the website wasn't kept up in tribute to Jean and her husband, who sailed all over the world and took fascinating photos wherever they went.

But the green flash, that one I get to treasure...

REALLY?...REALLY??

Today on the 12:30 news, they had a story about how the price of gas was going to go up because of the "unrest in the middle east".

Well, lo & behold, while driving Phyl to the knee doctor, drove past a Sunoco station selling regular for $3.11/gallon. 2-1/2 hours later, it was mysteriously $3.15 - imagine, they'd already received restless fuel from the middle east in that short time span!!. And Phyl's regular Sunoco station when I drove by 1-1/2hours after that...$3.19!!! I guess they received their delivery from an even more restless part of the middle east.

You know, there ought to be a law against raising the price at a gas station until they've actually had a delivery of gas. How many times do you see the price go up and down 3-4 times in one week? Too many.

And yet, the last two times I was in Canada, each time for 2 weeks, the price of gas didn't change one penny, so why is that...?

Though, in fairness, there is a Citgo station in Lakeland that does only change his gas prices after a delivery (about every 2-3 weeks).

And the rest of you...you just oughtta be ashamed...
