That Dude’s got moves!
And that Mama, she’s the cat’s pyjamas!
I couldn’t even do that 50+ years ago, let alone now. As Dennis says above, “very encouraging for us older folk.”
RE: 409, I never really appreciated Junior Brown’s part, this video makes it clear. Love the picking as well as the singing. Beach Boys make good back-up singers.
Scientists are worried that a meteorite will strike the Earth carrying a space-borne disease which will cause the extinction of alpacas.
If that event does occur, Francis Ford Coppola has said he will come out of retirement to direct “Alpacalypse Now.”
I’ve been right-handed all my life, until this Parkinson’s Plus hit.
Then I can only use my left hand. Argh! Do you know how many things are made for the right-handed?
My husband and I were talking about that because of left hander’s day. We decided that the mess we would make isn’t worth it. Just doing the computer would be bad enough. But, things like brushing your teeth, cooking and cleaning, eating and so many other things. But, you do it when you don’t have a choice. I feel for you, but you are strong!
I was having trouble with my right wrist for awhile. Changed to using the mouse left-handed. It took a few hours to become fairly proficient with it, but it still wasn’t as good as right-handed. I had to concentrate a bit more to use the buttons.
I am so right handed, I don’t know what I would do if I lost use of my right hand. For one thing, I think there would be a lot of pee on the bathroom floor.
Although not left-handed myself, I have had two sisters who are lefties.
If you’re a fan of The Simpsons TV show, a character named Ned Flanders owns a retail business in their fictional Springfield called The Leftorium. His shop sells pretty much anything, everything, and only things made for left-handed people. Ned himself is, of course, a southpaw.
BTW…..I’ve gone outside twice per night (11 pm-12 am and 4 am-5am) every night this week, and EVERY night this week, there has been heavy cloud cover, if not rain, thanks to the high heat and humidity. Consequently, I have not seen anything but clouds and rain…….no moon, no stars and ……..
In a salute to Friday the thirteenth ,here’s one of our first primitive animations, from ’15
Klaude Klutz
Back before Cleo could talk, she had a lot to say.
Was this the original appearance of:
.
Absolutely love this one. A true Cleo classic!
What a great Friday the 13th ‘toon. Lucky Claude!
I cannot have been the only person to think of Basset Trek as I watched.
Just remember, all those meteors are only trying to exercise their rights.
This…
…LINK…
…is two minutes and twenty six seconds of absolutely amazing dancing.
Not what I expected! Very encouraging for us older folk.
AMMMMMMAZING!!!!

The R.C.M.P. recently arrested a peeping tom for watching a meteor shower.
Boo! 🙂
don’t peep—er, peek!
I just realized that it’s showing a meteor showering….only took me the whole day! Duh!
Every August, television stations scramble to find weatherologists to predict meteor storms.
You guys need to lie on your backs to see a meteor shower.
Cleo is still waiting for the meatier part.
RE: 409, I never really appreciated Junior Brown’s part, this video makes it clear. Love the picking as well as the singing. Beach Boys make good back-up singers.
You probably know that he isn’t in the original, 1962 recording….
I wasn’t sure when this one was made, and I wanted to know what instrument he was playing, so I just looked him up…
…
This was made for a new Beach Boys album in 1996… Junior Brown had been only 10 years old in ’62.
…
He invented that double-necked guitar.
He calls it a “guitsteel.”..
one neck a regular 6-string guitar, the other a lap steel guitar…
so he could play both at the same time, standing up.
Somehow I think it could have a better name…. but hey, his invention, his call…. and he really knows how to play it.
Just got in from watching tonight’s meteor shower. Scored 10 meteors and 5 satellites.
And yes, we both wore shower caps. Cute, Cleo.
Rescue Pig seemed to be blending right in, until he started running!
I was wondering whether the bassets or the pig himself just assumed he was a dog like the others.
Then again… we tell animals what they are.
I dunno whether the animals themselves care about these man-made distinctions.
…
“You’re a warm furry thing, I’m a warm furry thing. You smell OK.
Let’s play.
Unless you make some kind of move that makes me think you want to eat me.”
it’s as if a collective query went up:
‘Hey. who’s this guy?’
It’s a double header!
TWO Cleos for the price of one! Thanks, Nighthawks.
…
Watching Claude lurch along the street in 2015, I’d say your animation skills have improved a bit.
Quite a few bits.
Still… you can tell Claude and Cleo were on their way!…
And look at them now….
Cartoon stars of page and screen!
,,,
Nice effects in the new offering. … no wonder Cleo is unnerved.
Maybe her idea of a “shower cap” is similar to a “nightcap”…
Not to cover her head, but to drink, to steady her courage.
I’ll bet her shower cap is made out of tin foil.

LOL
Ow! Ow! Ow!…
If you have paraskevidekatriaphobia please ignore my screen name.
s’ok, you old scalawag.
I tend to ignore most of your screen names
It sure explains a lot.
I’d say that was your lucky day!
This is what all the fuss was about.
And there was many a bout fought in the streets using it.
she’s real fine
Might want a heat shield with that cap.
Good morning Cleo phans and ML!
INTERNATIONAL LEFT HANDERS DAY
Yay us! Y’all have a left-handed day! (((((HuGz!)))))
today is also Filet Mignon day.
I can’t bring myself to post a cooked chunk of a dead cow.
So be so kind as to picture it in your mind’s eye.
esta bien?
I’ve been right-handed all my life, until this Parkinson’s Plus hit.
Then I can only use my left hand. Argh! Do you know how many things are made for the right-handed?
I sure do. It took me years to find out what I was doing “wrong…”
My husband and I were talking about that because of left hander’s day. We decided that the mess we would make isn’t worth it. Just doing the computer would be bad enough. But, things like brushing your teeth, cooking and cleaning, eating and so many other things. But, you do it when you don’t have a choice. I feel for you, but you are strong!
try taking a picture, or using an iPad or drinking from a coffee travel mug.
thanks for the vote of confidence re: being strong. :))
hang in there, sweetie!
with you and this family, things are really okay!
I was having trouble with my right wrist for awhile. Changed to using the mouse left-handed. It took a few hours to become fairly proficient with it, but it still wasn’t as good as right-handed. I had to concentrate a bit more to use the buttons.
that was the 1st thing i had to learn!
Logitech has a few mice for lefties.
thanks, dennis. I’ll keep that in mind.
Actually, that’s one important point. If something says “ergonomic” it means right hand only!
I am so right handed, I don’t know what I would do if I lost use of my right hand. For one thing, I think there would be a lot of pee on the bathroom floor.
very funny!!!!
You can actually buy y-fronts that open left-to-right…
You may just sit down…

….not that I’m pouting or anything…
damn.
i would too!!!
No rain but foggy here…
Plus streetlights and other urban lighting too close.
I see the moon only through fog, sometimes a few dim stars…. Not a meteor yet.
Kinda what I expected. Sigh…
fly up here and visit a spell.
We got smoke [cough!] Today even the sun was just an orange smudge in the sky.
We have smoke today, too. Looks like fog, it’s so bad. Stayed in the house all day. Between the virus and the smoke, I’m going to become a homebody.
@StillTheBelle said a bad word.
Ooops……darn!
If Rhett can say it, Stel can say it!
😄😄😄😄😄😄 Jason and his magic machete.
