THOUGHTFUL THURSDAY



I'm thirsty!

Before we begin Thoughtful Thursday's excursion into the outer reaches of our surreal imaginations, I need to get some ice water. (Or iced water, if that is correct in your neck of the woods)

WARNING!!! If you do not plan to click on the videos in this blog, you will not find any of the laughter, joy, and nostalgia it was designed to illicit in your soul. 
Thanks for your cooperation!


Please enjoy the intermission music whilst I'm away to the kitchen:
Ta tick tock tick tock tick tock tick...

I'm baaaaack!

Did you listen to the cool tick tock music?

Why not?

Go back, click it on, and listen to it while you read my blog...PLEASE! It will make it a lot less boring. 

Ta tick tock, tick tock, tick tock tick, ta tick tock, tick tock, ticky ticky tock...

They used to play that song quite often on TV back in the 50's, when you had to wait for something to happen...which was frequently!

Things were not so instantaneous back then. There were delays, intermissions, technical difficulties...vikings raiding the TV station...

That's when they inserted the tick tock song to entertain us while we waited. Kind of like what they do when you're put on hold today.
You may click off tick tock music now, if you wish.

Watch video below! It's the best of the blog!


Speaking of music back in the 50's, here is what they would play when someone was spinning plates on sticks, juggling with fire torches, or doing anything exciting:
Begin playing video now...I said NOW!

Sorry if I seem a bit cranky, but I ain't got my car fixed yet!

Here is something cool that I'll bet you've never seen!


I apologize. This is supposed to be Thoughtful Thursday and I'm getting all nostalgic about stupid acts and dumb music on variety shows when I was a kid!


However, how can we forget Senor Wences?! HA HA HA HA-larious!!



And Johnny Puleo and his Harmonica Gang!






How did this get in here?

Did you watch every second of every video I put on here?

You did?

Man, you got way too much time on your hands!



See ya! Wouldn't want to be ya!

Just funnin' wit ya!
