Ideas are easy. It's the execution of ideas that really separates the sheep from the goats. - Sue Grafton (b. April 24, 1940)

Osiris and I just saw "The Lost City of Z". We went to a 12:45 show, where a lot of senior citizens were attending. We are often the oldest people at the movies we see, not so today. Osiris read the book, and was satisfied with the adaptation. I thought it was a good movie with fine performances. I recommend it.

This week, Puzzlemaster Will Shortz has a two week challenge:

I would like to embrace the whole world in a network of charity. - Antoine-Frédéric Ozanam (April 23, 1813 – September 8, 1853)

Wow! So even Bo could earn enough for a fancy wedding!

I said the same thing to Osiris: "Cheyenne needs to get away from Bo, and just manage with the baby on her own. I know it's a sitcom, and they aren't real."

Loved that! Bo got at least that far in school.

Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last. - Charlotte Brontë (21 April 1816 – 31 March 1855)

Gotta watch those organic diets.

Great heroes need great sorrows and burdens, or half their greatness goes unnoticed. It is all part of the fairy tale.” ― Peter S. Beagle (b. April 20, 1939), "The Last Unicorn"

Yeah!

I wish I could read them all, but I only have an hour for lunch!

I am way older than that LW, among other things.

I thought that, too.
