Tuesday Song of the Week

 Until Madonna and her ilk ruined everything, the Eighties was the greatest time in history for music.  

(Except for that little part of the Seventies when ELO started)

Anyway...

The Star Made Me Buy It

 Today's star is not really a star:

Mrs. Bob Hope for Colman's Mustard

A gazillion years ago, I was watching a Bob Hope Christmas Special, and Mrs. Bob came out to sing.  Not a bad voice, but then she was a professional singer at one time.

You can listen to her trill on YouTube.

Bag o' the Day

 In a couple weeks will be St. Valentine's day, and on that day I'm guessing at least a few of you will morph from being single gals to becoming someone's fiancée. 

Which brings us to today's Bag o' the Day, the print of which from a painting by Edouard Bisson, entitled 'The Fiancée.' 

Lovely, no?

(YES)
