Ed forgets the name of the Supremes when introducing them
.
Happy birthday Peanuts!
I’ve always thought this one was laugh-out-loud funny….
in spite of poor Snoopy taking the hit.
Well, naturally, he would, wouldn’t he?
A mild-mannered, innocent beagle… no match for a sarcastic, wily, ambitious basset hound with weaponry experience.
.
Not hard to see why they call them “Birds of Paradise…”
..
Even after looking it u I don’t recognize anyone!
I only recognized one person… and even that was only after noticing “Music Man Special” on the plane.
I also looked it up… I found the same description in a few places. It named the cast, but listed more names than appear here, and didn’t label anybody.
Still, reading it, I think I can pick out
They’re some of the cast of “The Music Man”, either boarding or disembarking from their United Airlines chartered plane.
The one I recognized is Shirley Jones….
It’s a bad picture of him, but I’m sure the man behind her is her costar, Robert Preston.
Pretty sure, as well, that’s composer Meredith Willson below her in black glasses.
The little boy with the balloon is Ron Howard!
i can’t identify the others… The description says the “other cast members included Buddy Hackett, Paul Ford, Herminoe Gingold, Pert Kelton, Susan Luckey, Mary Wickes, Peggy Mondo, Adnia Rice, Timmy Everett and The Buffalo Bills”
Herminoe?? It’s Hermione… and I don’t see her. Her face is…. distinctive. I don’t see Buddy Hackett or Paul Ford…. and I wouldn’t recognize the rest anyway.
Anybody?
,
The pause that refreshes.
Sorry, they have hooves, not pause.
for Susan, who loves grey kitties
For meee? I… um .. I mean thank you.
I said I liked grey kitties? I don’t remem….. I mean yes, how kind of you to remember… Of course I like grey kitties…
And, well… yeah…. firemen.
Bev’s fireman… do you remember him? … was very popular, and I think he had a grey kitten.
A very handsome… uh…. grey kitten.
Be careful, your other boyfriends will get jealous (of your grey kitten, of course).

Silence of the goat?
Kind of almost creepy…
Is that two butterflies, or one without a body? I don’t want either on my mouth, thanks anyway.
She’s obviously female…. but I usually associate such enormous fake eyelashes and heavy lipliner with drag queens.
Looks like just (Probably) false wings attached to her lips, to me.
Yeah, could even be printed paper cutouts.
I kinda hope so, in fact.

“Yes, it’s peaceful out here in the country, isn’t it…
Here’s your tea…. milk and two s-s-ugars, rrrright?
Oh L-l-lord hhhang onnn tto your c-ccup…
It’s th-the fffour -oh- ssseven…. rrightt… (phew) .. on time.
Okay…. it’s gone…. biscuit?”
.
Me too!
Totally fell for it.
at first I thought: ‘ what are those guys wearing?’
Yes…. and they’re so tall!
Looked kind of like Peruvians, with tall felt hats, and long braids.
Then I thought maybe giant statues of Peruvians?
For a second, anyway.
.,.,
I don’t have a guess. I’ll see what you guys get.
Wrong again!
don’t you just love consistency?
Winterbourne is a large village in the County of Gloucestershire….. 😉

As you can tell, I had to look it up, so for those who don’t want to search:
I had thought
I remembered it being the name of a certain river. Oops. I guess I was confused with the actual use of the word.
,,,,
Must be a Liger, or more likely, a Tigon with markings like that.
I thought it might be a Liger or Tigon too…
But search shows it to be a rare golden Bengal tiger… one of about 30 in the world.
Most are in captivity because there’s more inbreeding, which brings out recessive genes.
Edited from the Wikipedia entry:
The golden tiger, sometimes called a golden tabby tiger, is a Bengal tiger with a colour variation caused by a recessive gene. It is a morph, not a subspecies. Its blonde or pale-golden color and red-brown (not black) stripes come from a recessive trait referred to as “wideband” which affects the production of black (fur.)

“Hey! Go find and pick your own nose!!!”
I like the look on the buffalos face.
The Candy Corn Billed Nosepecker!
.
I never understood what that mouth was good for. Still don’t!
Pulling critters out of holes?
Picking noses?
I always thought they were tiny!!!!
Me too!
We had a photo here of a male carrying something like 100 babies. There was nothing to reference for size… so I pictured him maybe 4 feet long, with teensy weensy babies.
The video says the largest are like 18 feet long!
I thought they could eat out of Pringles cans, but they could barely pick King Kong’s nose.

Where’s a scarecrow when you need one?
..,
I used to play one of these in Woodward’s Department Store. A controllable toy car facing upwards, and a bunch of painted cars on a paper tape coming at it. No scoring, it just happened!
BMW.
Figures.
Who else would drive against the flow…
When I took driver’s training in high school we had something like this, only in black and white on a sort of little TV screen in a cabinet with a seat
IIRC it had an actual small steering wheel.
I now realize it was a forerunner to video games.
On the one above, it looks like those are actual toy cars. They don’t seem to be glued in place, cos some shift to the side… so how do they stay on and come back up?
And some are airplanes!
I don’t know whether you’re supposed to be driving against traffic, or controlling a car coming towards you. Either way is nuts!
I don’t know where this is but the engineer needs remedial training…
“Them Duke boys are at it again!”
Engineer?
The engineer who approved the plans for the intersection (it isn’t exactly safe even at legal speeds).
Oh… Ok. I thought you meant driving one of the vehicles, like a train engineer.
This looks like a safe way to transport it…
Idiot for trying to pass that.
Not the US. There would be a fallowing flag car.
Or with something that long, maybe more.
Same here in Germany.
Trump’s flagpole
In the end, the beast is wagging its tail…
It’s China looking at the licence plates on the cars, so situation normal for there.
It’s about that time I’d be rethinking my journey.
I didn’t want to go there that badly.
I’m not sure why “our” car stopped, but I don’t think I would want to be anywhere near that tower while it was being transported. Get off the highway, stop for coffee and pie, and let the world go on about its business.
It’s a wind turbine blade. A LARGE one!
I think our car was pushed into the railing when they went around the corner.
But we’re looking out of the windshield.
Seems to me we’ve plainly stopped in our tracks, even though we’re in the left lane, and let the truck and then all the other traffic go on past and around us.
There’s still a little space between us and the guardrail.
Nope, he ran out of space between the guardrail and the car — you can see the bits and small pieces floating up onto the hood and windshield just as the rear carriage wheels passed him.
Plus, you can see the car shutter when the carriage wheels transversed down the right side of the car.
This idiot was lucky it wasn’t more.
Okay…. I’m happy to stand corrected.
Doesn’t look quite that close to me, but with my vision, I’ll accept your analysis!
If you watch videos of traffic accidents in China (I do), then there is a tendency for the cars to just stop where they are and not move to the side of the road where there is space to ‘safely’ stop. Having seen the type of driving in China (And Russia for that matter), the safest place to stop is probably Belgium.
Meduxnekeag Valley Nature Preserve in Western New Brunswick.
Seems strange to be looking at clips from “Midnight Cowboy”, and listening to a different Nilsson song from the one forever associated in my mind with both the movie and some of those scenes.
I’ve read, though, that he did write and record this one for the movie as well, but it wasn’t used, so he included it on a later album.
I do like it… but to me, the film and “Everybody’s Talking” are both unforgettable and inseparable.
…
Yeah, I’ve always considered “I Guess the Lord Must Be in New York City” with “You’ve Got Mail”.
