It's late and I did
not have time to prepare for today's TGIF.
So here's just a cute
shot of my grandkid getting ready to face Readin', Ritin' and Rithmetic.

Those were the days
of innocence, adventure, candies and cartoons. I've come a long way. If
you're readin' this, you've probably come a long way too. Weren't we so
innocent then? Would our "baby self" be proud to know "who
we are" today?
SEPTEMBER
(from the play The Fantastiks)
Try to remember the
kind of September
When life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain so yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a young and callow fellow,
Try to remember and if you remember then follow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember then follow.

Italian
Altar Boy Confession Contributed by
Tom of Pasadena, CA
"Bless me
Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl."
The priest asks, "Is
that you, little Dominic Savino?"
"Yes, Father,
it is."

"And
who was the girl you were with?"
"I can't tell you, Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."
"Well, Dominic, I'm sure to find out her name
sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina
Minetti?"
"I cannot say"
"Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Nina Capelli?"
"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."

"Was
it Cathy Piriano?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Rosa DiAngelo,
then?"
"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration. "You're
very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone.
You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself."
Joey walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and
whispers, "What'd you get?"

"Four months --
vacation and five good leads."

If the judges
tell you to stop in the middle of your song, you know you are in
trouble. See what happens.
