I don’t spend a lot of time searching, but I ran across that reference to
Cab Calloway’s St. James Infirmary and just posted it…glad you found
the whole thing
Barney… to the painting you posted.
That got me curious too.
The “Pink magazine” logo is a link to its article crediting her with its cover art for the magazine in January of this year and a brief biography……
….Inside here is a full flip-page version of ‘Barney’s Book of Hugs’ as read by Barney, himself. I turned the sound down.
changing your gown that fast in broad daylight? To purplie?!? Did Super-Basset help? That innocent-looking (the other way) dog!!! Or Wonder-Susan strikes again. Where’s your Golden Lasso?
As it happens, I was at a concert last night by an early music ensemble called Apollo’s Fire. AKA the Cleveland Baroque Orchestra. An excellent concert by a group that appears to be having a lot of fun while also giving superbly nuanced and sensitive performances.
When we were quite young, my ex-husband and I opened a shop in an old San Francisco storefront, selling vintage clothing, costume jewelry, and Levis.
We named it “Hot Stuff.”
…
We worked about 8 days a week, it seemed, from early morning till late night… even through our own break-up, but the partnership remained….
driving all over to find merchandise, visiting every flea market and garage sale we could find.
I had a work room at home, helped by a couple of young ladies who took home clothing to repair. But we were young and energetic, and we loved it.
…
I had designed our logo and 1930’s-ish neon sign… consisting of a green oval, with horizontal bars, around which wrapped the neon pink art deco lettering.
A young art student purporting to want to help us took photos of the sign and drew pictures of it, so we could have it printed on our cards and bags.
I could draw well enough to design it and lay it out for the neon company, but I wasn’t an experienced draftsperson.
He only charged us $100. How nice.
…
He soon moved to Los Angeles.
A few months later,note cards, gift bags and wrapping paper turned up in the hip stationery shops, with our logo as the design, though all in pink, and a little squared off.
The way the lettering was entangled with the oval, though, was unmistakably mine.
Gee… I wonder who copyrighted and sold it.
…
We talked to a lawyer, who said it would be pretty impossible to prove.
Several years later, just as I sold the business to my ex and his partner, Donna Summer came out with this song.
I’ve always wondered what inspired her.
Could be unrelated.
…
People used to sing it to me, as a “joke”… hahaha.
Stel… I posted to you a little too late yesterday, apparently, to tell you, among other things, that I’d responded (a little too late) to your question to me the day before… sigh.
I believe it was about Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
You may or may not want to read it… but I thought I’d give it one more try…. LOL

First Mixture
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup boiling water
Boil together until syrup threads from spoon. Beat into it:
3 egg whites
Second Mixture
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup table syrup
1 cup boiling water
Boil this until thick. Stir into first mixture.
Beat all together, add 1 tablespoon vanilla or preferred flavoring, add 1 cup nuts. When mixture begins to harden as it is beaten, pour into buttered tins. Cool and mark in squares.
Notes from me:
Use real vanilla extract if that is what you’re going to use, and butter for the greasing. Margarine, lard or vegetable shortening taste blends will “flatten” the taste.
Boil the second mixture on the lowest heat possible and stir; there’s a good chance it will burn otherwise.
Maple syrup is table syrup, but table syrup is not, in general, maple syrup.
I just learned that this existed yesterday.
This LINK leads to Donald Trump’s new social media platform.
I learned it existed because of his complaints about it not being properly reported on as being in existence by mainstream media.
Donnie, baby, the first rule of setting up a social media site is you don’t make it difficult to get on by making it necessary to download a program to do so — join if you want to comment, yes (although even that isn’t strictly necessary / witness here) — , but why would anybody download a program when there are other sites they can just go to?
There are more items about this if you go looking, but I chose to post only the attachment below to give you an idea of how vacuous this site is.
It comes from the site’s “Help Center” (click on it to make it larger / comprehensible is another matter entirely).
love Cab Calloway. thanks!

June Valentine
I was curious…
Here’s some of her other artwork… for which she uses her full name, June Valentine-Ruppe.
(yes, it really is the same person.)
Barney… to the painting you posted.
That got me curious too.
The “Pink magazine” logo is a link to its article crediting her with its cover art for the magazine in January of this year and a brief biography……
Wow… you take a little walk in Cleveland… not paying a lot of attention, or looking about…
And suddenly, you see a friend waving frantically.
So you wave back, right?
Next thing you know, she takes a picture… and now, it’s on the internet!
…
She was trying to tell me that i never even noticed all the famous Cleo and Company stars behind me on the street… and in the air….
including Bassetzilla, Robin Hound…. even Cleo Clifford herself!
She was out for a walk with her humans, the Cliffords.
I walked right past the EWC! I wasn’t even paying enough mind to be afraid of him or even of Frankenbasset’s monster!
I could have talked to Superbasset! And Snoopy was in town!
I missed it all…..but wow… Now I’m in a puzzle.
….
And a good one! Not that any are bad ones… But look at all the characters… And the solution is pretty doable, I think
I did it, and you can too!
Then… and not before…
…
…
Color me amped. I found ’em. Always a good day when I get a FTD puzzle right.
WOW! Ms. Susan! you’re leading the parade!
and i found all 9 tonight! WooHoo!!! see y’all tomorrow, xoxo
Got them all pretty fast.
Or Wonder-Susan strikes again. Where’s your Golden Lasso?
Not to worry… It’s color-changing fabric.
Made with special color-changing dye.
No untoward exposure necessary, and certainly not occurring… ever, but especially at this age.
I got them all this week. It took longer than it should have, though.
all nine, nice dress!
I found all nine and didn’t even realize it. I was looking for more when I said ‘Hey! that’s nine.’ Not used to that.
I see Cleveland has a guest star today.
As it happens, I was at a concert last night by an early music ensemble called Apollo’s Fire. AKA the Cleveland Baroque Orchestra. An excellent concert by a group that appears to be having a lot of fun while also giving superbly nuanced and sensitive performances.
Is this more obvious puzzle a compensation for the micro-differences of recent puzzles? It is welcome.
Donna Summer with police backup! Hot hot hot!
Melanie with Miley Cyrus.
Miley Cyrus can sing!
Who knew.

I don’t hate it, though… it’s a good song.
It does bring back memories.
My late BIL designed the logo for his antique shop, too – and of course it was copied.

Just saw it. I hope you know I was only teasing you. Yes, I do know that attraction is purely subjective.
Of course!
I was trying to be facetious… I mean.. would i say that stuff seriously about the Beatles?
spinach mushroom pasta bake
Dogzilla rises again!
Good morning weekly puzzlers!
Epilepsy Awareness day
I prefer my nougat in a Milky Way bar.
Y’all have a calm weekend. (((((HuGz!)))))
Now nougat I can get behind.

Just to get your attention.
Okay ! Okay ! I changed it !

But re-li(e)able it’s not.
Please don’t use that picture to get our attention again. I like to enjoy this comic!
please don’t bring politics onto C & C
I’m with the others.
Let’s use a version of Tevye’s prayer here. “May God bless and keep TFG far away from us.”
THANK YOU!!!
