Why do I always look forward now to hearing what Ryan Bledsoe and his family and friends are up to in the latest wacky episode?
Is it just good marketing and PR skills like Ryan's wifeJenniferadmits to having studied in this most recent episode above?
Maybe it's just the "Peppa Pig Effect"where I like to hear their strange Southern American accents?-)
But I was intrigued by their dream stories about old man Depp who turns 60 this Year of the Water Rabbit, as I mentioned earlier this year in my post -
I had to laugh when I heard chapter 46 being read of'Middlemarch' last night after writing the above post and heard that a guy named Keck was the editor of 'The Trumpet';-)
"Brooke has taken him up," said Mr. Hawley, "because that is what no man in his senses could have expected. Casaubon has devilish good reasons, you may be sure, for turning the cold shoulder on a young fellow whose bringing-up he paid for. Just like Brooke—one of those fellows who would praise a cat to sell a horse."
And some oddities of Will's, more or less poetical, appeared to support Mr. Keck, the editor of the "Trumpet," in asserting that Ladislaw, if the truth were known, was not only a Polish emissary but crack-brained, which accounted for the preternatural quickness and glibness of his speech when he got on to a platform—as he did whenever he had an opportunity, speaking with a facility which cast reflections on solid Englishmen generally. It was disgusting to Keck to see a strip of a fellow, with light curls round his head, get up and speechify by the hour against institutions "which had existed when he was in his cradle." And in a leading article of the "Trumpet," Keck characterized Ladislaw's speech at a Reform meeting as "the violence of an energumen—a miserable effort to shroud in the brilliancy of fireworks the daring of irresponsible statements and the poverty of a knowledge which was of the cheapest and most recent description."
"That was a rattling article yesterday, Keck," said Dr. Sprague, with sarcastic intentions. "But what is an energumen?"
"Oh, a term that came up in the French Revolution," said Keck."
The March 16th, 2023 edition of The Courier Mail newspaper
I was reading some old fish wrappers(Australian slang term newspapers) and saw the day Peterwould drown that Cody Simpson was pictured in the March 16th edition of The Courier Mail newspaper "making a slash for drowning awareness".
My youngest son has just gotten back from a 10-day tour of the USA east coast following a punk rock band called 'Bayside' around and attending 5 of their shows.
He brought me home a bottle with a 8of pentacles tarot card in it he bought from a "witch" in Salem, which I now have sitting above my computer next to a plastic wolf I found recently -
I found these music meditations at a You Tube channel forUniversal Co-Masonry, not that I'm one, but I do find a lot of the You Tubes there worth a watch/listen.
I found a plastic wolf in a carpark the other day and thought it was interesting that I would stumble across a wolf not long after finishing Whitley Stieber's book 'The Wolfen', so I put it in my pocket and took it home and placed it on the shelf above my computer screen.
Then that night I when I placed the plastic figure on the shelf, I turn on my computer to see this news story below aboutwolves:-)
