Found: Marilyn


Found while browsing one of my mother's old yearbooks.
Marilyn was apparently hell on wheels at Lancaster (Indiana) High School in the late 1960s.

COVID Parking Control

Parking control in the sun’s glare. County employees working at COVID vaccination sites. Gonna have a weird muzzle shaped reverse sunburn.

Apple Dumpling!

In Colonial times, "Apple Dumpling," is what people would say when they would punch somebody in the nuts as a joke, according to a children's history show I watched.

The Golden Lion

I got this when we saw Dick the Bruiser wrestle for WWA at the Fort Wayne Coliseum in the late '70s or very early '80s. I've kept it for the next 40 years, so may it be preserved digitally forevermore.

Drive Through Farmers Market

Visiting the drive through Farmers Market in Irvine during the COVID pandemic.
It felt great getting out of the house.

My favorite Yelp review: 
Rodrigo's Mexican Grill, Mar. 21, 2020 - Great take-out! We eat at Rodrigo's pretty regularly. I have become a great fan of their seafood enchiladas in recent months. It's almost always a delightful experience dining there. Staff are often welcoming. The dining environment is stimulating: Lots of flowers, refills on chips and salsa from the comfort of your own table.
Tonight we ordered take-out for the first time and I was a little bit nervous I would not enjoy the food as much without the bottomless chips and salsa. The razzle dazzle of the dining experience always stays with me longer than anything else.
What a shocker to find the food is just as good, if not better at home! It just goes to show that Rodrigo's has a solid foundation in delicious menu items. The stimulating dining environment and refills on chips and salsa are just the icing on the cake. Rodrigo's take-out is a great choice any (or every) day of the week.

Harley!

Got to meet living legend Harley Flanagan from the Cro Mags. What an honor! I got to tell him I bought his biography, "Hard Core" for the Laguna Beach library!

Cat TV

Ericka and I put on this show that was developed for cats, mostly we put it on as a goof, but the cats were, in fact, very into it! It featured footage of various birds in a woodsy environment and it really brought out our little guys' predator natures! In terms of entertaining cats, I rate this show 5 out of 5, at least based on One-Stocking's, Wispurr's, and Trinket's reactions.
