Hello, Nurse! Return of Animaniacs

The Warner brothers and their sister, Dot might be coming back to television.

I am not a fan of television cartoons, but I loved the clever writing of Animaniacs, and I was hooked on the show after watching the first episode. So, naturally, I was excited to read that Steven Spielberg is reteaming with Warner Bros. to bring the classic show back to television.

The reboot hasn't landed a network yet, but it's sure to be snatched up quickly, if network executives are smart (unfortunately, we know that sometimes they're not, so it's not a done-deal yet).

I can't wait to see more of Pinky and the Brain, Dr. Scratchansniff (Hello, Nurse!), the Godfeathers, Buttons and Mindy (hello, lady), and of course, Yakko, Wakko and Dot.

Fake News about the President

No, this isn't a post about fake news regarding the current President. This concerns "fake news" that's going around the internet about our 16th President, Abraham Lincoln. And I have been guilty of passing that information around. Now I'd like to be one to pass on the correct information.

Recently I read a posting on MSN.com that lists little-known facts about all of the Presidents of the United States. The little-known fact that was listed about Abraham Lincoln said that he "was a licensed bartender. He was the part owner of a saloon in Springfield, Illinois, called Berry and Lincoln."

There is only one correct fact in that "little-known fact:" Abraham Lincoln was co-owner of an establishment called Berry and Lincoln. He was not a bartender, the establishment he bought was not a saloon, and it wasn't in Springfield, Illinois.

In 1833, Lincoln opened a general store with his business partner, William F. Berry, in New Salem, Illinois, selling items that were typically found in a general store, including liquor. At that time, stores could sell alcohol in quantities greater than a pint for off-premises consumption, but it was illegal to sell single drinks to consume in the store without a license. Lincoln and Berry purchased a tavern (liquor) license, which cost 7.00.

Somehow those true facts were interpreted by someone with MSN to mean that Lincoln was a bartender. It would definitely be interesting, but it is untrue.

U.K. Trip of 2015 Part 1: Scotland

I took my third trip to England and second trip to Scotland in September 2015. I went with my good friend, Carrie. I called our trip (K)Carrie goes to London. Although we spent most of our time in London, we began our trip in Scotland, and I absolutely love it there. We stayed in a lovely Bed and Breakfast, The Barony House. I would highly recommend the B&B. The owners were quite friendly and both "bed" and "breakfast" were excellent. The B&B was in convenient walking distant of the Royal Mile, which is the main street in Old Town, Edinburgh. We spent one day in Edinburgh, exploring Edinburgh Castle and touring the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

On our way up to Edinburgh Castle, we were forced to wait while a police escort drove down from the castle. The police stopped, and a few people got out of a nice car, and walked into one of the buildings. We were told it was Princess Anne. Who knows if it was really her, but judging by the large police escort, I wouldn't be surprised. While we waited, we were able to listen to a Bagpiper (see the photo above). There's nothing like standing on the Royal Mile in Edingburgh, listening to a piper. 

After exploring the castle for a few hours, we started walking down the Royal Mile toward Holyroodhouse, and we were stopped again. The same party came out of the building, and got back into their car and left, escorted again by the police. So, I possibly saw the Princess Royal twice in one day. Royal sighting, check!

We finally made it down to the end of the Royal Mile to Holyroodhouse and made it in time to take the tour. I was happy that we were able to tour Holyroodhouse, because my friend, Valerie, and I barely missed the last tour when we were in Edinburgh in 2014. The palace was pretty inside. Not very different from Buckingham Palace and Windsor. What I enjoyed the most were the ruins of Holyrood Abbey. I don't know what it is about ruins that are so cool. It makes you feel like you're really in the middle of something ancient and full of history. 

On our second, and last, day in Scotland, we took a day trip to Loch Ness, Glencoe, and the Highlands of Scotland. I was hoping to get a glimpse of Brigadoon, but I think it's still in its current 100 years of slumber. *wink* I'll just have to go to Scotland again in 2047 to see if I can check Brigadoon sighting one off my list. I did happen to catch a sighting of Nessie in the loch, you'll have to judge for yourself if you think it was her in the photo below. Nessie sighting, check!

The scenery was beautiful as we drove up to the Highlands, and Heather, our tour guide, told us many stories of Scottish history, including Mary, Queen of Scots, William Wallace, Robert the Bruce, Rob Roy, and others. 

We drove past the castle where they filmed one of my favorite BBC series, Monarch of the Glen. I was the only person on the tour who had even heard of the series, let alone seen it. A lot of scenes were filmed in the town where our guide grew up, and she and others from her town were extras on the show. 

During our stop in the town of Pitlochry, Carrie and I decided to try what Heather had told us was the favorite soda of the Scots, Irn Bru. Carrie thought it was okay. I really didn’t like it. It tasted like carbonated bubble gum juice. 

I wish that we had planned to spend more time in Scotland. The next time I go to the U.K., I'm going to stay much longer.

2017 TV Season Sneak Peek

It's time to talk about the fall TV season and the new shows I'm interested in watching. Last year there were 17 new shows I wanted to check out. Of those 17 shows, there's only one that I will watch for a second season. This new season there are 10 shows this year I've planned on giving a chance. We'll see if there's more than one that I will like.

ABC
Marvel's Inhumans
What it's about: After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii, where their interactions with humanity might prove to not only save them, but Earth itself.

My thoughts: Ever since Skye/Daisy became an inhuman on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., inhumans have played a large role in the direction of that series. I think it has taken the show in a more interesting direction, as they have focused on how humans react to and act around inhumans. Now, ABC will have a series specifically from the point of view of inhumans, and I'm interested in seeing where the series will go and what new ideas will be brought to the table. I also wonder if there will be some cross-over between Agents and Inhumans. Since there haven't been many character cross-overs between the television and cinematic Marvel worlds, it will be nice to have another television series where cross-over can happen with Agents.

Inhumans will actually debut in movie theaters on IMAX screens on Sept 2, 2017. It will then premiere on ABC on Sept 22. 

CBS
Young Sheldon
What it's about: It's 1989, and nine-year-old Sheldon Cooper has skipped four grades to start high school, along with his less-intellectual brother. His twin sister, who's happy to stay in the fourth grade, has a better sense of what awaits Sheldon than he does. Young Sheldon may understand Newtonian physics, but his blue-collar, church-going family only care if that knowledge will help them win a football game.

My thoughts: When I first started watching The Big Bang Theory, I thought Sheldon's character was very unique, and I found his quirks quite funny. There was no other character like him on television. But after 10 seasons, I've grown tired of seeing very little change in his character. What used to be funny has now just become annoying. I'm tired of everyone pandering to his quirky needs. However, it could be funny to see some of his unique quirkiness in a young boy. I just hope they don't make young Sheldon a mirror image of older Sheldon. It takes years to grow into a "Sheldon," and I hope the writers realize that.

I am excited to see Laurie Metcalf's daughter, Zoe Perry, play Sheldon's mother, Mary. Mary Cooper is such a great character, and it will be fun to see Zoe play a younger version of the same character her mother plays on The Big Bang Theory. That was a great choice in casting, and it's lucky for the producers that Laurie Metcalf has a daughter who is also an actress. 

CW
Black Lightning
What it's about: Jefferson Pierce hung up his suit and his secret identity years ago, but when his star student daughter, hellbent on justice, is recruited by a local gang, he is pulled back into the fight as the wanted vigilante and legend, Black Lightning. According to network executives, Black Lightning will not take place within the Arrowverse (Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow).

My thoughts: Another comic book adaptation, you say? Aren't there enough already? If it's good, I say no. If it isn't good, then I say yes.

FOX
Gifted

What it's about: A suburban couple's lives are rocked by the sudden discovery that their children possess mutant powers. Forces to go on the run from a hostile government, the family joins up with an underground network of mutants and must fight to survive.

My thoughts: Sounds a little familiar, no? Now we'll have inhumans, meta-humans, and the gifted. Although this series is being produced in association with Marvel Television, I'm not sure if it's based on a comic book or not. With three new "superhero" series that I'm interested in watching, let's see if I'll watch all three through the whole season. If they're all distinct enough, and introduce characters that I care about, I don't see a reason not to add all three to the other five comic book-based shows I'm already watching. 

The Orville
What it's about: Set 400 years in the future, this live-action, one-hour, ensemble comedic drama follows the adventures of The Orville, a mid-level exploratory spaceship, as its crew, both human and alien, face the wonders and dangers of outer space, while also dealing with the familiar, often humorous problems of everyday life.

My thoughts: This is one that could be either really good or really awful. I don't think there will be much a middle road here. I love a good spoof, but unfortunately, what most people find to be funny nowadays, just isn't funny to me. I think that Seth Macfarlane can be quite clever sometimes, and then again, he can be quite crass and vulgar. We'll have to see which way this one goes. If it's anything like the film Galaxy Quest, then I'm all in.


Thursdays at 9:00

NBC
A.P. Bio
What it's about: A philosophy scholar loses doesn't get his dream job and ends up working as a high school Advanced Placement Biology teacher. But he's made it clear he won't be teaching biology. He recruits his students to help him mentally break his job-stealing nemesis and win back the position he thinks is rightfully his.

My thoughts: This one sounds a bit like a cross between To Sir, with Love and School of Rock. (without the music, I'm thinking). And then again, it could be nothing like either movie. It just sounds like it could be interesting.

Reverie
What it's about: A former hostage negotiator and expert on human behavior is brought in to save ordinary people who have lost themselves in a highly advanced virtual-reality program where you can literally live your dreams.

My thoughts: The virtual-reality program brought to mind the "framework" from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I really enjoyed those episodes that took place in the framework. If this series is anything like that, and can sustain the same kind of suspense Agents did, I think I might like this.

Rise
What it's about: A teacher takes over a school's lackluster theater department.

My thoughts: This show sounds like the kind of series that I would write if I ever wrote a TV series. I'm really looking forward to this one. I hope that there will be more "theater" than outside drama. I also hope there will be lots of staged musical numbers.

Will & Grace
What it's about: It's about Will and Grace and Karen and Jack, 12 years later.

My thoughts: The original show was very funny. I'm a bit wary about reboots. Yes, it's nice to visit familiar characters years later, but sometimes it's hard to bring back the original magic. We'll just have to wait and see. Until then, it will be fun to watch the trailer a few more times.

World of Dance
What it's about: This isn't actually a new fall show. This dance competition series premieres on May 30th. 

My thoughts: One of my favorite shows is So You Think You Can Dance, so you can probably guess that I like dance competition shows. I am looking forward to a lot of talented dances and some great dance routines.

My Favorite Movies: The Rage of Paris


A while ago, a coworker asked me what my favorite movie was. I'm sure he was thinking I would respond with a title he had heard before, such as Casablanca, Star Wars or The Princess Bride. He seemed surprised when I named a little-known black and white film from 1938, The Rage of Paris.
It stars Danielle Darrieux, a popular French actress at the time, who made only a few films in the United States, and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. It's not a masterpiece, or even what you would call a "great" movie, but I like everything about it: the script, the characters, the acting, the perfect comic timing, the witty word-play, the chemistry between the two leads, and the 1930's fashion. With this movie, it's all about the journey - and what an enjoyable romp of a journey it is. 

Synopsis:

Nicole (Danielle Darrieux) has no job and is several weeks behind with her rent at the boarding house where she's been living. Her solution is to try and snare a rich husband. Enlisting the help of her friend Gloria (Helen Broderick) and Mike, the head waiter at a ritzy New York City hotel (Mischa Auer), the trio devise a plot for Nicole to catch the eye of Bill Duncan (Louis Hayward), a handsome millionaire staying at the hotel. Nicole's plan may be thwarted by Bill's friend, Jim Trevor (Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.), who met Nicole when she was still down on her luck, and sees through her plot.

Quotes:

Nicole: Good afternoon.
Receptionist: What do you want please?
Nicole: I'd like to have a job.
Receptionist: Are you registered here?
Nicole: Well, no I'm not. I've never been --
Receptionist: We're not registering any new girls. (answers the phone) Towers Model Agency. Good afternoon. (pause) You have the wrong number. I'm sorry.
Nicole: I'm sorry too.

Mr. Wright: You're French, eh?
Nicole: Yes, I'm French. But it would show on the pictures.

Mr. Wright: I have a job for you to pose with drapes.
Model: For how much?
Mr. Wright: Two seventy-five an hour. He wants you three hours a day for about ten weeks.
Model: That's no job. That's a career.

Nicole: You are Mr. James Trevor, no?
Jim: I am Mr. James Trevor, yes.

Nicole: I'm sorry I'm not ready. I know you are very impatient.
Jim: No, I'm just curious. Would you mind telling me what this is all about, or is that asking too much?
Nicole: Pardon?
Jim: What is this all for?
Nicole: Two dollars and seventy-five cents an hour.
Jim: Oh, for two seventy-five an hour.
Nicole: Is it too much?
Jim: Oh no, no, no. As a matter of fact it's quite reasonable. I was just thinking that it's worth that to find out what happens next.

Nicole: You are the certain Mr. Trevor, no?
Jim: I am Mr. James Trevor, but not very certain.

Nicole: Where are the draps [drapes]?
Jim: What?
Nicole: You have the draps?
Jim: I don't know. I had the measles. What are the draps like?

Nicole: You're a photographer, no?
Jim: That's where you've got me. I'm a photographer. No.

Jim: Well, gentlemen. There must be a moral in there somewhere. So will you all go back to your offices and try to find out what that is?

Landlady: On your way!
Nicole: But you can't do this. You must help me.
Landlady: If you want help, get it from Washington.
Gloria: Washington's dead, haven't you heard?

Landlady: You keep out of this, Miss Patterson.
Gloria: I pay seven dollars a week in this fire trap, and if there's any fun going on, I want to be in on it.

Old male boarder: Stop this clacker. I'm trying to think!
Gloria: It's all right, the evil queen is trying slip Snow White the apple again.

Landlady: She's four days behind in her rent.
Gloria: And you're two weeks behind with your hot water.
Landlady: I have to live too, you know.
Gloria: Why?
Landlady: Don't you talk to me like that!
Gloria: I'll do better than that. I won't even talk to you at all. And I'll pay her rent!

Nicole: Why are you always so good me?
Gloria: Oh, I suppose you have to be good to something, and my dog died a week before you moved in here.

Nicole: Did you marry a rich husband?
Gloria: I married a hoofer. All he had was a time step and a shuffle off to buffalo. Late in life in got ambitious.
Nicole: And got rich?
Gloria: And got 20 years.

Gloria: This kid wants a job.
Mike: Job?
Gloria: Yes, she's one of those rare people who really want to work for a living.

Gloria: Look at those girls in there. That's where you belong. Not in a kitchen. The way to a man's heart is through his eyes, baby. That's the modern version. He believes what he sees and takes bicarbonate of soda for his indigestion instead of a wife that can cook. Those women spend three billion dollars a year in beauty parlors and not for cook books.
Nicole: You're very hard to understand sometimes.
Gloria: Seventy percent of all the money in America is in the hands of women. You understand that, don't you?
Nicole: Yes, but --
Gloria: And if the boys don't look out, the girls will be the other thirty percent.

Hotel Manager: We want your stay with us to be a memorable and enjoyable one. Because we feel that there isn't a hotel in America that is so well equipped as ours to make you as comfortable as you were in the home you just left.
Gloria: What a sweet thought.

Nicole (regarding fur coat): Oh, oh, it's a dream.
Mike: It costs 30.00 a day to rent the coat. It's no dream, it's a nightmare.

Gloria: She's such a child.
Mike: And while she's growing up it's costing me 60.00 a day for this suite. And that's a little over four cents a minute.
Gloria: If you lose one penny on this deal I'll give you my right eye.
Mike: And I'll take it.

Gloria: If I just had my boots and saddle.

Bill: When did you get the mustache?
Jim: That's something I picked up when I had the flu.

Jim: Who are you with?
Bill: A girl.
Jim: A local one?
Bill: No, she's from Paris.
Jim: Kentucky?
Bill: France.

Bill: Do you still like brunettes?
Jim: Sure, you know me.
Bill: Well fine, she's a blonde.

Girl in restaurant: I want ham and eggs.

Mike: I have a beautiful table for three.
Gloria (whispers to Mike): I wish you were right.
Bill: Make it for four, Mike.
Mike: Right this way, please. (to Gloria) Why four?
Gloria: We're having company for supper.
Mike: Who?
Gloria: Trouble.
Mike: On my money, having trouble for supper.

Jim: How long have you been in New York, mademoiselle?
Nicole: Oh, well I...
Bill: Just a week. She arrived the same day I did.
Jim: A week? I would have said you'd been here much longer.
Gloria: Oh, uh, she fools everyone.
Jim: I'm sure she does.

Nicole: Go ahead, I can took it.

Jim: Sorry I've been rough on you, but war is war.
Nicole: You said it, Mr. Trevor.

Bill: Nice friend I have.
Gloria: I've heard that man's best friend is always the dog.

Bill: I can't understand it. He's changed so completely, inside a year too.
Gloria: I knew a man once whose hair turned white overnight.
Bill: Well, I wouldn't believe it about Jim, unless I'd seen it.
Gloria: You know, this man wouldn't believe it about his hair until he became bald the following night. But that convinced him.

Mike: The young lady in your party forgot her wrap.
Jim: It wasn't my party, and she's not a lady.
Mike: Oh, I'm sorry sir, but I'm sure you know your friends better than I do.

Nicole: That's the first time anyone has ever said anything like that to me before.
Gloria: Said what?
Nicole: He said I'm cheap.
Gloria: Well, you certainly paid him back for that.
Mike: In spades! He's got some nerve! Cheap. I've figured out just now how much it costs. Eighty seven dollars and fifty cents in rental. Cheap. What does he want you to wear, radium?
Nicole: He meant I was dishonest.
Gloria: Darling, all women are dishonest. If they weren't, the world would be divided into two classes of people: old maids and bachelors. Look (rubs off Nicole's lipstick), that's dishonest. Plucking your eyebrows is dishonest. The rouge on your cheeks is dishonest. And a fat women in a girdle... ha! that's highway robbery.

Mike: I started out to get a restaurant, and now I'll be lucky if I end up with a ham sandwich.

Rigley (Jim's valet): It's a dangerous business interfering between a man and a maid.
Jim: Yes, Rigley. I know when I'm in trouble without you telling me.
Rigley: There was a similar situation in my own family, sir. As a matter of fact, that's the way my second cousin lost his right eye.
Jim: Mr. Duncan's my best friend. That's the only reason I'm doing this.
Rigley: It was my second cousin's brother, sir, that knocked out my second cousin's eye.

Jim (on the phone with Nicole): Hello. Is the the rage of Paris, or the pride of Hoboken, or whatever you're calling yourself today?

Jim: You're going to have dinner with me tonight.
Nicole: What! Oh, oh no, I don't like you. I'm sorry.
Jim: Well, I'm not sorry at all, but you're still going to have dinner with me at 7:30 sharp.

Jim: Did you hear that, Rigley?
Rigley: Do you want me to, sir?
Jim: I do.
Rigley: I did.

Jim: I'm sorry, my dear, but the age of chivalry is dead. And when I come back I'll take you to the funeral.

Uncle Eric: I think your niece resembles you quite a lot. Or should I say you resemble your niece.
Gloria: Oh, it doesn't matter. We all look alike in our family.
Uncle Eric: Haha! I'm glad we don't in ours.

Jim: You're working on borrowed time anyway. I should have fired you last Tuesday.
Rigley: Why don't you fire me now, sir.
Jim: Well, if you do a good job tonight, perhaps I will.
Rigley: Thank you very much, sir.

Nicole: Just wait, I make a lot of trouble for you.
Jim: Go ahead, I can took it.

Jim: Watch you step. It's rough here. I don't want you to break your neck.
Nicole: I'm sorry I can't wish you the same.

Nicole: What's a hog.
Jim: A hog is a very big pig.
Nicole: Now I could say something. (pause) But I don't.

Pops: It's been so long since you've been up here that I was beginning to commence to forget what you look like.

Nicole: Now I go on a sit-down strike.
Jim: Then I'd better get you a coat.
Nicole: No. I don't want any coat. I'm going to get pneumonia and die. Then what will you do with the body?

Nicole: Don't be mad, Jimmy.

Nicole: Mr. Pops, where is the telephone?
Pops: Right over there. But it ain't connected.
Nicole: Not connected? But can't you make it connected?
Pops: Oh sure. I'll notify the company first thing tomorrow. They'll send a man out to fix it... in about a week or 10 days. That's what they call service or something. But I've got another name for it.

Jim: I always thought the French like to eat.
Nicole: Yes, but they're very particular.
Jim: About their food?
Nicole: About who they eat with.

Jim: I come from a long line of hunters.
Nicole: No, I think you come from a long line of sour pusses.

Nicole: All the fresh air is outside, and inside, there's nothing.

Nicole: I think I'm going to look out of the window, if you don't mind.
Jim: No, no, it all comes with the dinner.

Nicole: Can't you go any faster?
Truck driver: Sure. But I ain't allowed to leave the truck.

Mike: So, it's all over but the shouting. Well, that's life. You take a chance, and draw a blank.
Gloria: It's finally got him.

Gloria: You know, something tells me I'm going in the restaurant business myself.

Rigley: Before you do this, sir. Let me tell you about an incident in which my second cousin, One Eye Rigley, was involved.

Mike: I'm gonna name a dish after her.
Gloria: Yeah, what?
Mike: On the regular dollar dinner in our new restaurant the frogs legs will always be called "a la Cortillion."
Gloria. Don't forget to name the mashed potatoes after me.

Jim: You have the draps, no? You are the certain mademoiselle de Cortillion, no?

Grammar Gaffe: Broke vs. Broken

Okay, this grammar gaffe really annoys me (as opposed to slightly annoys me): when people say "broke" when they really mean "broken."

First, we need to talk about two different forms of "broke."

1. Broke (verb): past tense of "to break."
1. Broke (adjective): without money; penniless

Only people can be broke. An inanimate object cannot have money, an inanimate object doesn't need money, therefore it cannot be "broke." 

If you're talking about something breaking in the past, then you can can say the item broke, but it is not broke. It is "broken." Please, allow me to say it again, the item is broken!

Incorrect:
The table is broke.

Correct:
The table is broken.

Incorrect:
My car is broke. 

Correct:
My car is broken.

Correct:
My car broke.

Correct:
My brother was broken when he found out he was broke.

Lesson given, and hopefully lesson received.

Disneyland and Disney World: Pictorial Comparison

I took my first trip to Disney World last year, and because I love Disneyland so much, and I've been there so many times, it was hard not to compare the two. There are so many things that are different, but there were many things that were similar.

I really loved Disney World, and I enjoyed so many parts of it that aren't found in Disneyland, but it was also nice to see what was familiar.

This post celebrates the familiar sights I found at Disney World - and some of the differences that felt familiar.
