Today's collection has a theme: play.

Why in the world would you want a plain white, or plain red, or plain whatever golf towel when you could have the marvelous golf towel shown above ???

* I was not a little kid - I was college age - and had the bright idea to paint cave paintings-style paintings on the walls of my dorm room.  That apparently didn't go down well with the people tasked with cleaning out dorm rooms after they're vacated by graduating seniors, or students moving to apartments or whatevs.  

Ultimately no big deal.  My room was in the barracks, i.e. smallish buildings that had actually been barracks in WWII or a short time later when the school was flooded with GI Bill people.  They were torn town a few years after I graduated.

ADORABLE Victorian trade card kittens playing blind kitten's bluff on a throw blanket.

A pair of kittens that were at the shelter I volunteer at were absolutely hilarious to watch when they were playing.  They'd back up, then race at each other, and begin wrestling.  Once one of them cried 'Uncle!' they'd back up again, race at each other again, and commence wrestling again.

One of them has since been adopted.  His remaining brother is obsessed with playing with the toys I bring with me when I'm there (two or three times a week)  I bring a laser pointer, and two of those long sticks with something dangling from them.  These he loves.  Once stole one from me, dragged it up to the ceiling cat tunnel and into one of the other cat rooms.  

If you want to adopt a REALLY playful kitten - yay, INSANELY playful (and also super cute)- go visit Cape May County Animal Welfare Society (40 South Delsea Drive in Cape May Court House, NJ.  Open Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm.  Closed Monday and Friday.  .  Bring one of those toys that are a stick with something dangling from them.

Cute kid in an old-timey football helmet drinking his favorite sugary fizzy libation*.   On a mug.

What's more fun than a fun mug???  Not one thing.

77 Soda was a very - like VERY - short-lived competitor to 7-Up.

Thus ends today's Lucky Dip.

Going forward, half of our Lucky Dips will have a theme, and the other half will just be random.

Excitingly so.
