WHEN IT COMES TO CERTAIN MOVIES, SOMETIMES THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE CAST! I love the movie The Wizard of Oz!

Amid the madness of today, how about a 'feel good' story for a change?

THE REWARDS FOR SUCH DEEDS ARE ALWAYS SPECTACULAR Although I usually relay stories from newspaper articles that are either on the bizarre side, or are the kind to make people somewhat upset and/or angry, this time I found one that may just put a smile on everyone’s face.

About this Blog

Like the famous Roman stand-up philosopher Comicus once exclaimed: “I coalesce the vapor of human experience into a viable and logical comprehension.” In other words, I see, hear and read about a lot of peculiar things, try to make some sense of them, and then pass them on to you, hopefully in a whimsical but common sense way. Strap yourselves in . . . this ride can sometimes be a little bumpy! From the author of "The Hindering" and "Welcome To America-Society In Decline"
