~Three little ducks go into a Bar...~
(Also: Today in History, Word for the Day, Today’s Horoscope, Maxine, and do you remember?)


"Say, what's your name?" the bartender asked the first duck.

"Huey," was the reply.

"How's your day been, Huey?"

"Great. Lovely day. Had a ball. Been in and out of puddles all day. What else could a duck want?" said Huey.

"Oh. That's nice," said the bartender. He turned to the second duck, "Hi, and what's your name?"

"Dewey," came the answer from duck number two.

"So how's your day been, Dewey! ?" he asked.
"Great. Lovely day. I've had a ball too. Been in and out of puddles all day myself. What else could a duck want?"

The bartender turned to the third duck and said,

"So, you must be Louie?"

"No," she said, batting her eyelashes.
"My name is Puddles."

~Do you Remember? ~

Here's a phrase I heard all the time in my youth but never anymore - ‘store-bought.' Of course, just about everything is store-bought these days. But once it was bragging material to have a store-bought dress or a store-bought bag of candy.



'Coast to coast' is a phrase that once held all sorts of excitement and now means almost nothing. Now we take the term 'world wide’ for granted. This floors me.

On a smaller scale, ‘wall-to-wall' was once a magical term in our homes. In the '50s, everyone covered his or her hardwood floors with, wow, wall-to-wall carpeting! Today, everyone replaces their wall-to-wall carpeting with hardwood floors. Go figure.
