Orcinus orca

Easy on the eyes.....

Let's be clear here - Royal Oak does not have suburbs. Royal Oak is a suburb of Detroit. And he was lucky to get that place in Beverly Hill for such a low price. Those are really tiny homes with big price tags due to the address.

It's a mystery that Trixie isn't concussed due to the number of falling anvils. Good grief, for someone trained to make keep observations she is remarkably obtuse! I, too, was flummoxed about the number of adults watching the drowning unfold, just wringing their hands. Although the water was, in reality, quite shallow; Cyril was only knee deep when he flung himself in to swim dramatically to the rescue. But, of course, the story.....and probably the safety laws for the kid. I am not surprised by the official visit to the Turners; yes, accidents happen but her mother has every right to be concerned about something like a drowning. She's half a world away and the safety of her daughter is in the hands of virtual strangers. We know they are good people but she has only reports to go by. Certainly a remarkable transformation by the young parents. Hope it lasts. Love Phyllis and Miss Higgins more each week. Overall, not a favorite episode for me.

I hope you are wrong. I hope I am wrong because I totally agree with you. Money is the only goal on both sides.

I think it is Francesca as well. I doubt Lady D would have anything to do with an of the Featheringtons.

Yes, he did get "sturdy".

Well, goodness, that IS quite cryptic. Looks like he must has said or did something to cheese off the Hallmark brass.

If it wasn't over after the blow out episodes where Kootie descended into the fifth level of hell, then this tragedy will certainly kill it. Is there really any appetite for watching another round of births or the banal trivia they were pushing up until the Flight of the Wives? I wasn't watching any of that crap before and I certainly wouldn't entertain watching whatever TLC can manage to dredge up now. It would be an insult to Garrison's memory, in my opinion. And I have zero hope that they would handle discussing the suicide in a helpful, educational, or civilized manner. Stop. Just stop.

Yep, those of us around in the 50's were trailblazers!

Yep. But I am old enough to have needed a jab for the polio vaccine before they switched to sugar cubes. My mom and one of the neighbors (both nurses) set up a neighborhood vaccination event in our basement under the guidance of the health department. We all marched down the stairs, got the vaccine, and got a sucker.

He was adopted into the tribe after curing one of the elders. It started out with a gift of a goat and ended up with him having to give away all of his possessions.

Traffic was at a standstill on I75 going south from Michigan to Ohio for hours before the event! Lots of people took to the back roads to be in the path of totality in time. My sister (in Indiana) said the frogs all abruptly dove into the pond, the birds stopped singing, the temp dropped 15 degrees, and an owl starting hooting. She said it was pretty spooking even knowing it was coming and could definitely see why the ancients would be terrified that the sun would never some back.

That poor, poor family - losing the dad, kids with TB. It was heartbreaking and, while just a story, makes me sad to think what became of them. The mom couldn't work, there were umpteen kids, and some with TB. No way that turned out well.

New episodes starting today! It's the only cooking show I watch so have been missing it.
