“Jeez, will you kids knock off the caterwauling!? You know why it’s called ‘caterwauling?’ Cause it’s the kind of nonsense we expect from cats! So knock it off!“
I knew all but the actress’s name. Yeoman Rand; all my circle of guy friends had a crush on her. We definitely had her rated as the best looking of the recurrent female crew members.
Agreed on all counts. Obviously a bizarre wig from the costume department. And we were boys, 12-15. What do you expect? Plus we had a classmate named Rand. We didn’t even know he had a little sister yet.
But so are groundhogs (woodchucks), marmots, and prairie dogs.
A groundhog is big… I met a trained one at the fair who was the size of a cat, or maybe 6 or 8 squirrels. He’d probably bite you if you called him a squirrel.
Chipmunks are teeny, a quarter of a squirrel…. but they might be insulted too.
Charlie Chaplin was pretty obvious… and Ben Terpin (the cross-eyed comic).
But the studio head with big ears, the big nosed guy in the chair, the director who gives Felix a contract… I’m sure people in the 20s laughed at the portrayals of whoever they are.
When it comes to the tech stuff, I’ve certainly known people who were like Claude….
It’s really hard not to say anything, especially when sometimes you think they’re joking. You start to laugh and then just barely catch it in time.
I never mean to make fun of anybody… there’s plenty in this world I don’t understand either.
But when someone thinks all her fonts are inside Word, and will be gone if she upgrades the program, and that putting the pictures from her camera onto her computer means she’ll lose them forever if she buys a new computer, even after you explain till you’re blue in the face…. it’s hard.
Especially with the friend… I think I’ve told the story here… who had such an old computer it didn’t have a modem or a color monitor… but she was deathly afraid of catching a computer virus that was in the news, and getting sick. And said she would blame me, because I told her she didn’t need to unplug it.
As we’ve had a lot of “Who are they?” teasers today, I won’t post the one I was going to (It would have been easy for most in here anyhoo), so I’ll post this:

I hope they don’t dock the puppies’ ears like Mama’s.
If the ears are docked, the tail is most likely done also.

Oops… I didn’t refresh to see your post…
I was about to delete mine but then I thought it’s kind of funny our posts are almost the same.
But I had to search for
Great minds!!!

Looks like a Liberty Ship being launched…

See how much bigger he is here than under that tree?
Dad used to dance like that (when he wasn’t copying Fred Astare…)
Not quite a moonwalk… But very nice!

She lets her husband make an asp of himself?
Not Helen Hayes…. but maybe Claudette Colbert.
That’s what it says on her shoulder. Claudette Colbert as Cleopatra
Um….that’s why I said it.
Just joking, as though Steve was talking about Helen Hayes.
He thought he was. See my comment on the NEXT movie mag.cover
The captions really helped. (yeah, I knew Elvis and James Bond…)
Once again….
I easily
So I figured
A Bond film.
But since I haven’t seen one in years, I had to Google to find out
Wow, wotta Dame!

Did Kirk just take his shirt off again?
Do we need a spoiler box for me to say

then there’s the exotic communications officer Uhura
I highly recommend (again) “Woman in Motion”

The basket weave hairdo is pretty strange.
Yeah, yeah…. I know you weren’t looking at her hair…

Waaah….. 🫣
Branches … … … … … … … or feet?

Title: “Insomnia”
Artist: Vincenzo Lamolinara
I don’t know what the hell you are but you best not be bugging my crow friends.
Big Bird, izzat you?
Top left crow, “So, when are you going to kick him out of the nest?”
Didn’t I see you in “Fantasia?”
Pouring it into a pitcher!
We used to have an antique milk “churn” — it had a measuring cup built into the lid.
Yes???
I didn’t recognize the child…
Nope & (looked familiar, but) nope.
First reaction was that I should know who this is. Still, I consider this guess to be almost a shot in the dark and will be amazed if it’s right.
Way, way off.
I can see what you saw in the younger photo though!
Is that a chicken joke?

These magazines are tricky — the BIG NAME doesn’t match the BIG PICTURE!
Chipmunks are squirrels.
So baby chipmunks are baby squirrels.
Wellllll…. They’re in the squirrel family….

Squirrels = tree rats.
That’s a great one.
Wish I recognized all the Hollywood caricatures.
Charlie Chaplin was pretty obvious… and Ben Terpin (the cross-eyed comic).
But the studio head with big ears, the big nosed guy in the chair, the director who gives Felix a contract… I’m sure people in the 20s laughed at the portrayals of whoever they are.
You rang?

Cool!
Thanks.
Felix’s character evolved.
If I didn’t have the title, I would not have recognized him.

Danish Sayings.
“Gab a grandad.” I love it!
Good luck with that!
I had my physical today… great news… I didn’t shrink any more this past year – yay!
(I’m also very healthy, but I knew that).
