FOWC with Fandango — Chain We always think of this song as "lovers" or at the least relationships. How about our whole country -- a chain of fools. As a nation, that's what we are. A chain of fools. From wherever we come -- the left, right, or middle, we are all of us an endless … Continue reading CHAIN OF FOOLS – ARETHA FRANKLIN – Marilyn Armstrong

A SNOWY DAY WITH SUNFLOWERS – Marilyn Armstrong
A Snowy Day With Sunflowers – 02/28/2019 Garry came back from the grocery while the snow was softly falling. I already had flowers from last week, so I picked out the ones that were dead, left the chrysanthemums which were in good shape. But I was grateful.

A COLLAPSING WORLD IN “SAN ANDREAS FAULT” – Marilyn Armstrong
RDP Tuesday: Fault Last night, tired of the endless depressing, appalling, horrible news from around the world, Garry played a movie he had previously recorded. San Andreas Fault is not merely a disaster film. It is every disaster film you have ever seen in one film. It's earthquakes that will turn Kansas into the Pacific beach capital of … Continue reading A COLLAPSING WORLD IN “SAN ANDREAS FAULT” – Marilyn Armstrong
