Fantastic word game

Mike Hammer or Father Dowling Mysteries could be cited as an example of a well-crafted television detective series, but Stacy Keach's real-wife wife appeared with him on Mike Hammer, whereas Tom Bosley's real-life wife, Patricia, could not appear on Father Dowling Mysteries, even as a minor character, because Bosley portrayed an unmarried priest and Patricia appearing on the show might have had the unintended effect of negatively affecting the audience's perception of Bosley's character.

Whew! That was a difficult sentence to complete! Hey, wouldn't it have been fun if Henry Winkler had appeared on Bosley's series and addressed him as "Mr. D"? :)
 
Character counts, according to Tom Selleck who, naturally, is absolutely correct; and everybody knows that anything he says is just fine with the librarian.
 
Her foot starts tap-tap-tapping if she finds any of the lovely young library interns slouching around on the job.

Although it's hard to believe any young lovely library intern could slouch.
 
Slouching around on the job, Mister WMC provoked the ire of his boss at the mattress company, who told him, "Look, we hired you to be a mattress tester so stop slouching around and get on those mattresses and go to sleep!"

Mister WMC replied, "Hey, don't I get a break once in a while?" :)
 
Go to sleep tonight knowing that there will be another 3-6 inches of snow that will affect the morning commute.

Good thing I can grab a room on the PowerWorld campus if I want to. As can everyone else.
 
The morning commute takes me along several miles of a narrow winding road and right now the road is almost impassable because of the recent heavy snowfall and it's times like this when I wish I had a car so I didn't have to walk.

My grandfather used to tell me, "When I was a young boy, I walked to school and I walked home and it was uphill both directions!"
 
Walk uphill in both directions, without shoes, in 7 feet of snow, wondering why I was without shoes in the first place when my boots were next to the door when I left this morning.
 
When I left this morning, I was in such a hurry that I quickly grabbed my lunch sack and ran to catch the bus and when I opened the sack at noon and saw what was in it, I became sad at the realization that my son had probably unwittingly already put the real lunch sack in the garbage can.

That would have made a funny sketch on the old The Life Of Riley tv show. "What a revoltin' development this is!"
 
Dumpster diving is something I have done, but I did throw a classmate in the dumpster when I was in high school.

For anyone who cares the notorious Sin City Night Club in Waterbury, Connecticut shut down for good last Thursday. They were made infamous among other things for playing a dance beat behind Charlie Sheen rants and calling it music during the Friday Night Kiss Club on KISS 95.7 WKSS. The Friday Night KISS Club was canceled in 2013 after being on KISS 95.7 since the 80s when WKSS flipped from Beautiful Music to Top 40/CHR.
 
When I was in high school, one of southern California's notorious earthquakes hit and the ground shifted so much that my high school suddenly became a low school.

But it was a lot easier to get to the second story, which was now at ground level. :) Here is today's Fun Factoid: the first recorded earthquake occurred in 1831 BCE north of Tai'an in the Shandong province of China.
 
School today is a place where many children show up to get counted on the roster, while the rest come to band camp to use our vast resources, thanks to our many benefactors over the decades, to assist with their studies.

There are many recorded earthquakes before the current era, but they are found in the Bible before Christ, and again at His death and again at His resurrection. These events occurred waaaay before the Chinee earthquake.
 
To assist with their studies the librarian and the very hip interns have all manner of teaching tools available, along with wonderful after school snacks at the lounge.
 
Wonderful after-school snacks at the lounge include Ovaltine, Ice Mountain water, Dreyer's ice cream, Hot Pockets, Lean Pockets, DiGiorno pizza, Raisinets, Butterfinger candy bars and Baby Ruth candy bars, all of which have been provided to us at no cost ever since we changed the name of our school to Nestlé High School.

Funny thing, though: They won't allow our film students to discuss any movies which star Barbara Hershey.
 
Nestle High School is where a "chocolate lab" is not a dog, but instead part of science class.

Science class there is however incomplete, as they are also forbidden from discussing the planet Mars.
 
Science class became very enjoyable on the day that our teacher was sick and the substitute teacher mistakenly brought in a Van de Kamp's generator instead of a Van de Graaf generator and we all wound up eating fish sticks.

True story: In my 10th grade science class, one of the students---not me---wanted to touch the globe of the Van de Graaf generator while the generator was running. He got a big shock and all the hair on his head poofed out like a lion's mane. :)
 
Eating fish sticks while speaking to a pool shark led to a whale of a story about JeffM and that sweet little tuna he's been trying to bait.

See what I did there!
 
Bait the Van de Graaff generator while it is running if you really want some lessons in current events.

{{{:eek:}}}
 
Current events can easily be followed by listening to an online stream.

See what I did there?
