  • All My loving.
  • Till There Was You.
  • She Loves You.
  • I Saw her Standing There.

The Ed Sullivan Show was played by our local stations 2 weeks after the show was originally aired in order to have the tapes transported to Alaska. I remember a bit of the show. The Apollo 11 mission was the first ever live network TV broadcast to Alaska in 1969.

I remember the Apollo 11 broadcast. I was at over night camp. We didn't have a TV at home, so seeing TV at camp was a novelty.
The first year was the 6th day war, second no TV , the third year Apollo 11.
My dad had some equipment that went to the moon so I was interested.
I am not sure who in their right mind would let a bunch of kids at camp watch news on the 6th day war, esp as some of the counselors that we knew had gone to fight in it, but they did.

I was at my grandparents set net site for the Apollo broadcast. We caught bits and pieces between tending and mending the nets and other chores. I would of just been out of 9th grade.
 
Happy International Women's Day
Today is the other day in the year when it is safe to eat cake
 
First autistic people felt vindicated by not having to shake hands, now OCD people can wash their hands as often as they like without criticism :cool:
 
Time for Change

In a hundred years, teachers will tell their students about the way we dealt with a simple virus in 2020.
"But where did the virus come from, Miss?"
"Well, because someone decided to eat bats."
"But why?"
"Well, it was a very primitive society. They nearly did it by eating monkeys too."
"They must have been really stupid, Miss."
"Well, times change."
IT'S TIME! We can't let poverty and ignorance kill us all.
 
One of my best friends got married this weekend. In Zambia. Without me. Which is as it should be, I suppose, but I always imagined I would be at that wedding, and that it would be a happy, happy reunion.

Congratulations, my friend. May love bring you comfort and joy today and every day.

Him: She’s got a problem. She’s so needy. My arm hurts from petting her so much.

Her: Doesn’t even know he’s there. Never asked him for anything. Is with someone else.
