I Don't Look Upon This as a Catastrophe..

According to the goofy individuals over at Craftastrophe , this neato mobile is of the stripper variety when, as anyone can see, its much more along the lines of a PINUP mobile & I happen to think its beyond swell & at only $30.00, quite a steal! I WANT:

A Ring of Truth.

When Jesus healed those crippled beggars, didn't they always get up and dance off stage, jabbing their canes sideways and waggling their top hats? Hooray, all better now, hooray!
If you are whole, you will argue: Why wouldn't they rejoice? Don't the poor miserable buggers want to be like me?
Not necessarily, no. The arrogance of the able-bodied is staggering. Yes, maybe we'd like to be able to get places quickly, and carry things in both hands, but only because we have to keep up with the rest of you, or get The Verse. We would rather be just like us, and have that be all right.

The Poisonwood Bible; pg. 493, by Barbara Kingsolver.

EASTER EDITION!

Fred & Judy- A Couple of Swells:




It isn't generally known but, Judy had a delightful sense of humor and was good at getting laughs; whether it be through dialogue, as evidenced in the banter throughout Judy at Carnegie Hall or in little skits such as the little gem you've hopefully just taken the time to view. :)

She was not, as many individuals suspect, the endlessly tragic figure that she usually projected herself as. If I'm not mistaken, her daughter, Liza , once asked her mother directly why she did not divulge her comedic side more prominently to her adoring audience. She replied with something along the lines of, "I'm giving them what they want to see." (I'm paraphrasing but, that's the general idea.)

And so, I wish each and every one of you a Happy Easter!

Krista's Top 10 All-Time Favorite Television Theme Songs.

Inspired by a previous post on 1000 Awesome Things , I got to thinking about my personal list of favorite Classic television theme songs and so, I thought I would share them with you.

**As a sidenote; just because I like the theme does not imply that I enjoy said program.


Krista's Top 10 All-Time Favorite Classic TV Themes:

10.)Photobucket
** Green Acres

9.) Photobucket
The Jeffersons

8.) **Mr. Ed:


7.) Leave it to Beaver:


6.) The Carol Burnett Show:


5.)The Dick van Dyke Show:


4.) The Andy Griffith Show:


3.) All in the Family:


2.) The Golden Girls:


1.) I Love Lucy; with the lyrics!:




I think its kind of a shame that we no longer have memorable theme songs to go along with our TV viewing but then again, TV is not what it once was, anyway.

So, what are your top TV Themes? Which ones make you smile or bring back memories?
