...and being so cheered up from the last  post reminded me I could not resist sharing these Star Wars pancake molds found on  The Luxury Spot . I've got a good feeling about this...

Since that last post was so dour and actually really depressed me to write I went ISO a cheer up and found one instantly on the lolcats website  I Can Has Cheeseburger . They link to a number of sites that bring instantaneous happiness like this one  Happy Chair is Happy  which is all about showing faces in inanimate objects - not like Jesus appearing in pancakes or anything, but like this "disapproving kayak."       It's true: the best things in life are free, except for the cost of a computer, the interwebs, your electric bill and your apartment to keep it all in. But apart from that...

Thank you, thank you to Ward Six for putting up a list of “10 Over 80” ten authors still going into their eighth decade to counteract the incessant noise made by –and about - the young. Those of us who intend to live, work and irritate people well into our 80’s need some role models too. In the likes of Harper Lee, Beverly Cleary and my favorite Doris Lessing (click the link to read how annoying she found winning her Nobel Prize) Ward Six has provided some inspiration and a big, wrinkled middle-finger to youth-centricity. Take that, ya rotten kids. And get outta my yard. ">
