Too Hot To Handle…

History continually asks…Who was the best dancer, Fred or Ginger? In my opinion, while judging performance and synchronization, it is a tie.

BUT…Ginger was required to dance backwards while wearing heels…She wins!

CATHY’S CORNER

Hello Friends, it has been a while, I do hope that in the next few weeks I will be able to get back to writing more.  At this time, I have a few things on my mind I would like to share with you.  I listen to talk radio a lot here in the Atlanta area.  Several of the conservative radio hosts have been talking about the elections here in Georgia for Public Service Commissioners.  He explained that they are over the Electricity and Natural gas for our State. And how important it is to get out and give our Republican Incumbents our vote. The Radio host was saying to the Democrats, “you need to vote your wallet on this”. Keep Georgia’s energy rates below the national average, and hold utility companies accountable.   My husband and I went to vote, they were the only two things on the ticket for us to vote for, but I was happy to give a few minutes of my time to get that very important vote in.  I do hope that you will feel the same, because if Democrats get in that seat, and we see the prices climb, don’t complain about high bills if you did not vote. Please do take the time to cast that vote. 

 Something else on my mind of importance are the chem trails. There were a lot of them over the Atlanta sky on Saturday. I understand that Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky and a number of other states have banned chem trails.  Why hasn’t Georgia?  Please let your Representatives know how you feel about it. A good friend of mine in Texas, who is an engineer was telling me that our droughts are caused by them. The metallic oxides interfere with the magnetosphere of the earth. The metal oxides block solar radiation which deflects the electromagnetism that provokes rain. In addition their ultra-low frequency directs jet streams away from areas that need rain.

I don’t pretend to understand all of this, but I did read a book many years ago on this subject. The title of the book is Angels Don’t Play This Haarp: Advances in Telsa Technology. The authors are Nick Begich & Jeane Manning. The book is available on Amazon.  I would like to explain it all to you but if you don’t already know about it, please Google for a better understanding. It is not of God, and It is not good. 

 Meanwhile enjoy every minute you have, each bird that sings, each butterfly you see, and all the sunrises and sunsets. Don’t take them for granted.

Do you know John Wagner? Oh yes you do…

I will be doing some serious investigating on Ancestry.com. I am pretty certain that John Wagner is my real Daddy…because I have become Maxine.
-Sheila Tolley-

Creator Of Maxine

John Wagner, Hallmark artist since 1970, says Maxine was inspired by his mother, his maiden aunts and his grandmother, the woman who bought him art lessons when ‘fill in the pumpkins’ was about the extent of his art classes at St John’s Catholic School in Leonia, N.J.

John remembers doodling as a preschooler and says both his grandmother and his mother encouraged his artistic interests. He eventually attended the Vesper George School of Art in Boston and landed at Hallmark as part of a new artists group. But it was the birth of the humorous Shoebox Greetings (a tiny little division of Hallmark) in 1986 that added a new dimension to John’s professional life. The Shoebox way of seeing the world unleashed his talents and he created Maxine.

Why the name ‘Maxine’?  ‘People at Shoebox started referring to the character as ‘John Wagner’s old lady,’ and I knew that would get me into trouble with my wife,’ John says. The Shoebox team had a contest among themselves to name the character and three of the  approximately 30 entries suggested ‘Maxine’. John says the name is perfect.

John, who says he’s humbled by such acceptance of Maxine, admits he’s proud of her. Now you know the story of how Maxine came to be.

Good Stuff

 

Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad.

Pick battles big enough to matter, small enough to win.

Some luck lies in not getting what you thought you wanted but getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you known.

How to make it in show business–by Steve Martin: Be so good they can’t ignore you.

If you can walk, you can dance. If you can talk, you can sing.
