That’s the round edge of one of them, in front, not the outline of another muzzle… and what looks like another mouth is the back edge of the same cheek.
Meanwhile… that’s an awfully short, spindly bed for a huge hippo child….
I’d think her rump would hang over the edge.
(Just edited cos I had called her a “baby”, but she must be old enough to write in her diary. LOL)
Dunno if either of you saw it… but I replied to you yesterday afternoon, about why those Disney handcar tracks had no third rail, even though they’re definitely Lionel.
…
Also, Grayhame… you reminded me in one comment that I had meant to post the song you referenced…
so I did, after that. Thanks.
The forerunner to Terry Jacks version, from Jacques Brel.
Much more interesting, to me, than “Seasons in the Sun”.
I know… We don’t celebrate it here, because she very very rarely comes to Cleo.
Cleo birthday parties are for regular attendees, who also come to other people’s parties and wish them happy birthday, in person.
If we did one for her, she probably wouldn’t even know.
I try to tell her happy birthday somewhere she’ll see it.
…
Meanwhile, if you, or anybody, thinks I’ve forgotten someone’s birthday, the nice thing to do, for those who have my email address, is to tell me privately, before posting it, so I can try to catch everybody up at the same time… or at least those who are on the email list..
The same way I alert all of you 12 to 15 times a year.
I just intended to tell anyone who wanted to wish her a happy birthday.
And I passed the well-wishes on.
She’s still on Ballard Street – now and back then. That’s how I know the date.
A few things in the Gary Lewis & the Playboys video that caught my eye.
1) Go-go dancers
2) An accordion! In a rock n’ roll band!
3) All the screaming in the background, presumably from young women in the audience. Guess it wasn’t only for the Beatles and Elvis.

Anyone else see two heads?
It’s bedtime, i guess. 🙂
I think I see what you’re looking at…
but it’s one face with very chubby cheeks.

Of course there are – cute little toy!
Love the slippers.
And her hippo-dolly!
at first i thought they were 4 commodes. LOL!
That’s what I thought too!
..
Is that the lead ones?
Only the best from Nighthawks!
Our tinsel was made from actual tin. Later, it was plastic.
maybe, but they’re flame-resistant!
Takes a lit to burn lead… (Meanwhile, I understood the health risks, but always liked the way the lead icicles drooped compared to the tacky mylar.)
I remember hanging those one at a time. And after Christmas, taking them off to use again next year. So glad when we switched to garland.

Beautiful!
,,,
Aww!
This is the one I had trouble seeing for a moment….
till suddenly the edges of the faces became clear.

This might be pure affection… but I can’t help wondering whether Mama just ate something delicious, and the babies are trying to get a taste.

My family were big fans of this show when I was little.
Got all nine right away. Pretty sure they are right, but I will check with Susan later.
I’ve got your solution, Cleofans and Puzzle People!
Unfortunately, it’s not a free range solution, or I’d be lining up to get one myself.
I found nine, and you can too…. if you didn’t quite, take one more look, okay?
Then you can compare your finds with mine, by clicking
Got the same nine.
I got them all on the “Road to Shambayla”.
yippee! i also got 9!
I got the same nine, but in a different order…
(snerk!)
got em, took a while for an obvious one!
Whee! Easy to see them all this week.
I got eight and i’m happy with that.
Got ’em!
Nice to have a puzzle that does not keep me up past my bedtime.
I found nine, and they’re all pretty distinct. So I think I got them all.
These bands were so well groomed in the 60s and 70s.
Yeah… some were….
(The Grateful Dead, in 1970)

We both loved “Seasons…”, so I ran out and got the sheet music. It included the French lyric. Le Moribund, which translates as “Yep, he gonna die”.
I can often sing French lyric, but my knowledge of French is limited, and that chorus just has too many odd consonants.
Plus his lung cancer.

Makes one feel quite insignificant at times, eh?
There is such a “vastness” out there…
Truly, it is mind-boggling!
It makes us feel insignificant because, in the grand scheme of the universe, we are.
Do not look at this early in the morning.
Now you’re just messing with me.
P51Strega… you asked yesterday….
I definitely had this one on a 45…. maybe you’ll know it if you hear it.
…
I’ve always remembered one line (not sure how accurately)
“Up stepped a man with a big cigar, who said ‘Come on boy, I’m gonna make you a star!’ ”
…
I also remember “I Got a Wife”… but I never liked it, so I’m not posting it.
It’s supposedly funny… but all about imitating a stereotypical nagging wife.
Thanks, I’ve heard this before after-all. I googled “I Got a Wife”; you’re right, not a good song (pretty sure I hadn’t heard it before.
Pst… It’s Dry and Dusty‘s birthday today…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DRY and DUSTY! Hope your special day is wonderful and fun!!
please pass on my birthday wishes to DRY AND DUSTY!

Sigh….
Yes, I know. That’s what I do, too.
Only I do it by email so it doesn’t look like I’m trying to “scoop” anybody by knowing it first.
So I’m just saying it would be nice to give me forewarning because I give it to you so many times all year.
….
Nobody would know the date on Ballard street, for you to find, had Stelbel and I not started the parties there.
First we gathered email addresses, just to have a network in case people went missing… but we also asked people their birthdays.
Then we made the first surprise party, in 2012, and kept going until GoComics stopped us.
They didn’t just appear out of nowhere!
…
We always gave Dry a party, too, till we got to this site…. I still have fancy saved cakes for her.
But we’ve talked about it, and she doesn’t want to come here regularly.
ditto on Susan’s comment above.

Kinda started with Frank Sinatra.
