I just had to share this conversation which appeared on the Facebook page of someone I went to high school with.
* I bet the N.O.W. folks are sad about that.
- Who?
* The National Organization of Women... the ones who wanted "In God We Trust" taken off the money.
- I think you mean Madalyn Murray O'Hair, but she was head of the Atheists, not the feminists.
* Oh, you are right; I had her confused with that Actress the sided with the Vietnamese... Shirley MacLaine
- That wasn't Shirley MacLaine, she's a New Ager not a Communist sympathizer, That was Jane Fonda.
* Oh... so who was Phyllis Diller?

That's hilarious and scary all at the same time. There's a person who definitely has an agenda. And just doesn't know - where the meeting is
- the name of the organization
- any of the people involved
- or what the meeting is about
I think I'd be tempted to tell 'em, "Don't you remember? She invented the Batmobile?" |

She had a short lived TV series about a rich woman who had lost everything. The IRS worked out a deal with her that she could stay in her mansion with some of the things that they took from her so she could pretend to still be rich and possibly make a deal with some of her still rich friends that could help her get rich again and pay the IRS the rest of what she owed them. She had one friend over and was serving tea. If you looked close, the tea bag she was using to make the tea had a patch sewn on it.
William Windom also died the other day. I loved him in a series based upon the cartoons and writings of James Thurber -- "My World and Welcome to It." He was in a lot of shows over the years. A lot of the people I grew up watching are dying. I remember my Mom talking about losing "her people" and I am really experiencing that lately.

I don't remember much about William Windom's show, but I do remember the theme song. |
