Today's Question(s):

What was the last thing you splurged on ? Guns.

Bonus Question:

How many of our QOTD family watched "Laugh in" <raises hand>

The original ? X
or
Reruns ?

Extra Credit Question:

What exciting plans do you have for the weekend ? None


Today in History:
1938 - "Our Town," Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer-winner of small-town life in Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, premieres I remember reading this in English lit classes.
1946 - The Central Intelligence Group, which later became the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), was established by U.S. President Harry S Truman’s directive issued this day.
1964 - World's largest cheese (15,723 kg) manufactured, Wisconsin
1968 - The NBC-TV show, "Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In", debuted “from beautiful downtown Burbank” on this night.
1972 - "Emergency" with Robert Fuller premieres on NBC TV


Word of the Day:

prevaricate \prih-VAIR-uh-kayt\ , intransitive verb;
1. To depart from or evade the truth; to speak with equivocation. I used to be married to one of these.

Today is:
National Blonde Brownie Day A blonde brownie. Sounds like an oxymoron.
Clashing Clothes Day Like orange and purple together??
National Polka Dot Day I'm too old to wear polka dots anymore.
Answer Your Cats Questions Day Now I've heard everything.
Come in from the cold Day I'm already in.

Wow, not many people have posted on the QOTD yet, so I must be up too early or Karla is a little late today..

Bonus Question:

How many of our QOTD family watched "Laugh in"
I don't know, I see people Laughin' everytime I walk by them, and I can't figure out why.. - Rowan And Martin's Laugh In, I remember that show, and I remember watching it when I was a kid.
The original or Reruns ?
I like first runs, reruns make me tired for some reason, especially if I'm running uphill.. - I remember watching first runs and reruns of the show. I'm sure everyone remembers one of the catch phrases in the show "Here comes the judge".. and I do remember hearing "Go to your room" a few times.. on the show..

Extra Credit Question:

What exciting plans do you have for the weekend ?
Nothing exciting, just boring stuff.

Good morning all.


What was the last thing you splurged on ? In the beginning of October DH and I went rving, and stayed 3 nights at a really nice campground, to visit friends. For the house we are remodeling...granite counter tops To some that is a splurge to DH and I it was necessary at this time. Too bad I don't like granite..

Me and I'm pretty sure I watched the reruns.


What exciting plans do you have for the weekend ? Right now we are waiting for the washer and dryer to be delivered. The ancient washer broke yesterday.

Tomorrow we might be going out on a neighbor's boat and then we are all having a dinner party and game night.


Have a wonderful weekend!!!
