I'm happy that I favor pictures which have Lon Chaney Sr, Harry Langdon
or Mae Busch....

I think it would be interesting to write a script for that particular trio of performers. Chaney as a demented small-town druggist who has a poisoning-for-hire racket on the side, using Langdon as his oblivious delivery boy. And Busch plays a potential victim who is rescued at the last minute by Langdon's accidentally sticking Chaney with his own hypodermic. And you could throw in Snitz Edwards as the soda fountain jerk at the drug store, who's also the bagman for Chaney's racket, and Ernest Torrence as the sherrif who knows something is going on but is too dumb to figure it out.

When something that seems to have happened recently actually happened 40 years ago.

When you more fully appreciate the meaning of the phrase "youth is wasted on the young."

When you remember more of
things that happened 40 years ago
then things that happened recently.

Not to worry my friend, what's important is....
remembering where the food is and staying warm!
Also...check that the stove is off
and you brought in the cat/dog from the outside
before you hit the sack!

Why? Because it has a self-starter?

When you wake up in the morning and the first thought
is that you woke up.

When 10 p.m. at the bar on a Friday night is late. I haven't been out in ages, but I was ready to go home at 10 and made it home by 10:30!

My day used to start around noon and end at 3 or 4 a.m.
That's been quite some time ago. I have few regrets about that way of living (indeed, I harbor many fond memories of it), but I have little desire to go back to it.

When the thing you look forward to the most is going to bed. And when the most depressing thing is waking up and realizing that there is another day to get through before you can go to bed again.
I can't believe how fast the days goes by! Just today, a friend of mine asked me what time it is, I whipped out my phone and said ten tell four, then I said, Holly...... the day was almost over! I would like to say I accomplished a lot, and had such grand adventures that I just lost track of time, but I accomplished almost nothing today!
