Children’s stories that range from an autistic-telepathic little girl who makes friends with gemstone-munching dragons in the mountain next to her village; the original story of how the platypus from Australia ended up with so many unusual features; a charming tale of two plants who comfort each other at an overseas university during a scorching summer heat; and a goofy tuxedo cat who conquers his owner’s bed space by personal demand of comfort.
Were you into the music scene during the ‘70s and ahead?
Meet with members of The Band, Derek and the Dominos, the Mahavishnu Orchestra,
Peter Green’s Original Fleetwood Mac, the notorious train ride with the
Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, and Bonnie Bramlett’s vial of Owsley high-octane
LSD, and some down-and-dirty blues legends like Buddy Guy. And a nod years ago to the
late Monkee Mike Nesmith when he was doing the Texas yodel in his
tunes.
For sure: if you were a graduate of the toughest education
system in New York (aka the Elwood School District in Long Island), were you
there when the VW Bug appeared on the auditorium roof in 1970? I KNOW some
confessions came forward when I brought up the topic on the group site—and while
you’re reading about ‘Horror Day High School’ (“Holiday High School”), find out
what happened to #21’s football jersey from the ’72 championship team. (I’m not
confessing who admitted the crime to me--but they ALSO wore football jerseys.)
Drop in for a front-row seat with Paul Newman and Robert
Redford as they conspire to ‘sting’ $500,000 from a deadly Robert Shaw, or have
a glimpse of some truth-is-stranger-than-fiction moments with my life,
including the swans-as-aliens in my farm pasture in Alabama, driving a car with
no wheels, or better yet: the woman who was grilled by Dr. Phil for her claims
to be a reborn avatar just weeks before her death and her cult followers wrapped
her body in Christmas lights. Lucky for me that my Guardian Angel pulled me out
of yet ANOTHER fine mess!
See? You can get an education about used cars, horse racing, and politics from a channeled Groucho Marx in “The Creative Classroom Experience”—and maybe, you’ll find that Wonder Bread is indeed “Manna from Heaven” if you know how to make a sales pitch for dough. I mean the financial kind.
That and a guideline for
raising that Calvin-and-Hobbes little boy if you learn about his birthday gifts
and challenges in an astrological-psychology handbook. Thank YOU, Grandma and
Grandpa, for helping Mom and Dad to safely handle the task!
