Thanks! It was read to me when I was quite young. I soon read the book myself -- and, many years later, read it to my son!

The beavers will save us all! 🤣

YouTube video by ChunkyStab Noggin the Nog 1959

For your viewing pleasure: a small clip of the first episode of Noggin the Nog. Ran on the BBC from 1959-1965, and again in 1982. The series was never broadcasted in Canada, but several books found their way to our libraries and bookstores. Enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jisq...

If you can teach Artemis how to regulate the oven temperature, you're golden! 😀

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Adam!

Perfect! Merry Christmas, everyone!

Ready for Christmas!

Great book series. Read many of them. Purchased several volumes through Scholastic when I was in public school, too!

Clementine made a wise decision. It was awful!

Scuffy the Tugboat. Magnificent children's book. Barely hear a whisper about it any longer.

Fascinating statistic! I knew that Onslow had a good career in the IL, but didn't know much about his MLB career. As it happens, his HR total was higher than that of his brother, Jack, who later briefly managed the White Sox.

A far better choice! Hope they enjoy the concert...and hope you're doing well, too.

Among other things, yes! (Hope you're doing well, John.)

Ah, the trials and tribulations of work! 😀 All kidding aside, enjoy the festival -- and Lagos!

Nothing needs to be said! 😀

I'll have to pick that up, thanks! (Hope you're doing well.)

Two can play at that game! 🤣

I'm a Cowboys fan -- now and forever!

Good ol' Sneppy. 😀

Snuffy Smith's replacement of Barney Google as the main protagonist is similar to what happened with Nancy and Fritzi Ritz. This comic strip evolution was more unusual, however. Barney Google was a household name for decades. Songs were even made about him, including the 1923 ditty by Billy Rose.

Very interesting! I knew of the link between Fountain and Billy the Kid, but little else.

Thanks for adding me, Stephen! I'd suggest adding @rmohamedyow.bsky.social to the list.

Sadly, I did. What a disaster.

That's about the size of it.

I'm here. Strongly doubt I'll use Bluesky very much, but I'll post things occasionally.
