THE FRIDAY FUNNIES
Well, it's nearing the end of the week again and what's new?
Oh, Clint Eastwood has a new movie coming out that he both directed and starred in.
Clint who, you ask?
Well he is 91 years old!
Hasn't he ever heard of retirement, asks Jack Nicholson?
Or maybe that was me.
And that's slmost all I've got.
Now don't worry about your INCREDIBLY ANCIENT age, just try to have a wonderful weekend.
And never forget to keep laughing!
Here, kitty-kitty . . .
(oops)
Some of you skeptics may think that's cheating; that isn't really a kitty.
So for you . . here's another try.

THE FRIDAY FUNNIES
It is nearing the end of a great week for Hmong teenager Sunisa Lee and a not so great week for Novak Djokovic.
If you can not only correctly spell but pronounce every word in that last sentence then you too should win a Gold Medal.
If not, practice, practice, practice.
There's another opportunity in Paris in just three years.
(the crowd grumbles: Oh shut up, Catalyst, and get on with what we all came here for!)
Okay, okay, let the games begin!
All right, word lovers, with that triple twist I'll just lift a glass at the uneven bars and catch a wave out of here.
Now have a great weekend and never, ever, forget to keep laughing!
Here, kitty-kitty . . .
(Aw, c'mon, guys . . .)

THE CELEBRITY AT HOME
I call her the model these days.
She's my step-daughter, the eldest girl of Judy, aka SWMBO.
I think she looks right natural in front of this rental place at a resort in Sedona.
Word is that it's been named the Celebrity House because of all the celebrities who have stayed there.
This time it's the BRD and a gal friend staying there.
How long before Hollywood will be calling and she'll be one of the celebrities on the list?

P.C.
My Scot-loving pal, Tommy Terrific, sent this video over from sunny California today and I found it good enough to share.
With apologies to my favorite Scottish pals, "gz and the Pirate."

SQUASHED
We had a ferocious thunderstorm hit us for a half hour or more the other day.
It just poured.
Reminded me of movies I've seen of rain like that in the jungles.
The squash and gourd vines took a beating and a day or so later Judy went out to check on them.
In so doing, she plucked a couple of squash.

A BAKING TIP
Picking up from my success with a Cherry Clafoutis recently, I decided to make one with a partial package of blueberries that had been taking up space in the freezer for ages.

THE FRIDAY FUNNIES
It's Full Moon Friday!
Also the final time my friend Phil can celebrate his birthday by saying "I'm seventy- - - -."
How quickly the years have passed.
So for Phil and all other Senior Citizens, here's a diet regimen to help you live on into your "Golden Years".

ThrowBack Thursday
Your scribe, some time in the 1940's.
Gadfrey!
That necktie!
That collar!
That smirk!
Then . . . 70 or so years later.

HARVEST
The plants seem to be enjoying our cooler and wetter weather of late.
The gourd vines are beginning to climb their stakes and heading for the arbor supports.
Meanwhile, across the yard at the tomato barrel, there's one peeking out that is just about ripe enough to be picked.

A TALE
Once upon a time there was a curious black cat.
He used to show up on our back wall from time to time.
