Huh, can’t find what I remember from the radio. Probably from the car radio. Kind of an uptempo, jazz-like rendition.

Rufus T. Firefly:

Geez. I know that song. Didn’t a woman sing it?

YouTube. I’ll find it

Thanks!

But I still link to Totten quite often.

Do you mean this article? Or this one?

Maybe you just don’t remember that you sometimes forget 🙂 .

Seriously, though–I know what you mean. I have been accused on many occasions of a similar annoying inability to forget slights, disappointments, etc.. I also have a weird ability (which my loved ones can definitely come to resent at times) of usually being able to recreate entire conversations: “then you said…then I said.”

Not that I’m always right, or that my memory is perfect. It’s not. But (at least so far—knock wood) it has usually held me in good stead.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

It featured a long nosed trollish man who could smell children, and of course he was hunting the children in the movie. I had night mares about that guys grotesque nose and his sniffing sound. At first was mortal terror, then later on I slept with my baseball bat under my bed, and wished that guy would come sniffing around. Glad I never saw anyone dressed like him around Halloween, I would have gotten into trouble.

AND, what’s more, I get musical comedy references:

Seriously, though, I very much appreciate your words of praise. The commenters are what (who) keep me going here. That, and my ridiculous curiosity 🙂 .

By the way,as a child I saw Robert Morse in one of his first starring Broadway roles, “Take Me Along.” He was 28 but he played a 16-year-old, and he stopped the show.

Yes, ten years is the blink of an eye at this point.

However, at “our age,” forgetting things has a more frightening aspect. Everyone I know “of a certain age” gets worried when they forget things, although when they were young they sometimes forgot things, too.

just for you Jim, i am throwing that in as a “Wizards” reference AND a “Fritz the cat reference”… (Though i hated rotoscoping)
