Fantastic word game

In our parents' eyes, we were always good, sweet, generous, polite little angels until we broke the rules and then we got sent to bed without any supper.
 
The Olivia Newton-John Pavilion pales in comparison to my plan for the Pernell Roberts memorial fountain and horse trough.

(Dear WMC, how kind to remember my school girl crush on Pernell Roberts that briefly led to my stalking the poor man, in the best possible way, during his time here in Chicago. I felt awful when I read that he died, as if he was someone I knew. I hope he had a happy life and that he went gently into his goodnight.)
 
Horse trough bathing at TFWG's Pernell Roberts Memorial is strictly forbidden.

I know Dan Blocker went first...then Lorne Green...and Michael Landon...and now Pernell Roberts. But what they heck ever happened to Hop Sing?
 
Underground is where you'll find the lost tapes of Bonanza where we find that Little Joe isn't exactly very little.


And don't ask Quad how he knows that either. :p
 
Little Joe isn't exactly very little, as the tapes will prove, and his belittling nickname was a constant reminder that his family did not like him, if his Ponderosa family was even his family at all.

Why "Little Joe" but no "Big Joe?" Not even another "Joe?" Bizarre.
 
At all TFWG band camp locations today, our students will be learning to play the theme from Bonanza which is widely considered to be one of the most memorable theme songs in TV history.
 
The Sweathogs were entertaining but nothing like The Mary Tyler Moore Show.

(Victor Sen Yung appears the 1938 film Charlie Chan in Honolulu, as the Chan's "number two son," Jimmy Chan. He was in his 50s when he did Bonanza and the oldest member of the Ponderosa cast. Ray Teal, who played Roy Coffee, was older. And Roy's deputy was played by Bing Russell, father of Kurt Russell. I LOVED that show and still watch it when it shows up on the retrospective cable stations--but only those that feature the late, great Pernell as the urbane Adam.)
 
The Mary Tyler Moore Show was pretty much a staple in most households each week, and we could hardly wait to see the antics of Ted Baxter.

With the library all put together, all having been spared, we have a most pleasant, balmy breeze at our backs all the way. Of course that 20/10 hindsight on the aft of the boat doesn't hurt any. We still have one original wall, which inspectors initially thought was just shoddy, drippy paint and grout work, but upon closer inspection they realized it was just an original wall that remained intact for a bit of character.
 
Fresno, California has dreary looking weather today, but tomorrow is supposed to be much better than today.
 
Often are the intervals between naps when kitty steps up to the dinner dish, which she has conveniently pushed over to the spot close to the library radiator by which she is accustomed to being warmest, not knowing that it is full steam ahead by all of the radiators now.
