  1. I don’t come around here often enough. Each time I do, there’s so much to see and absorb. Today, a couple of blasts from my past — Garbo, whose birthday I share, and the Geneva wheel which I remember from the big old projectors with carbide-tip lights.

    Now, I have a row of tabs to go through, reading some of the links I found on this page.

  2. It’s a good thing Kathy doesn’t come by here very often.  Yes.  A good thing.
