MY BUCKET LIST
Then I went way back into my memory and brought back stuff I hadn't thought about in years.. That was fun, my older memories are fresher than the new stuff, like did I just take the pill I have to take at..what was the time I was..?? Now, I have plenty of new stories that I recall, that I can share with my kids and grandkids, because it's like bedtime stories, because they still go to sleep shortly after I start them, the little darlings..
Getting back to my BUCKET LIST, I do remember having a special place for an especially beautiful actress, Maureen Ohara, that I thought she and I could click if given the chance.. I had the pleasure of seeing her on an early morning coffee break, on the back-lot of Columbia Studios, some years back, with the sunshine, highlighting her figure and flaming red hair that had the look of an angel, we exchanged hellos, and I never forgot it.. swoon.. Do angels have red hair, well they should.. Anyway I thought I would look her up on google, and, who knows?? Much to my surprise shes still around, and unmarried.. Fate takes a hand..
I wondered if she would remember me, she did smile at me and told me; I "..would catch flies with my mouth a gasp", as it was.. That at least is something to get the conversation going.. I know I've changed a bit since 1963, but who hasn't? I see she was born in 1920, so she may have altered a bit herself, but I doubt it, but she is older than me and may like younger men, and I am differenately yyounger.. You can never win a race without running, so give it a chance.. You never know. Right?.. s
I thought about contacting her in the latest technology, text, to show off my youth, but I can't do that on my wall phone, because I took it apart to check for a keyboard, but it may be an early model.. Then I remembered hearing about Twitter, from my grandkids, and thought, all the really big stars have Twitter accounts, so I looked Twitter up on Google, don'tcha just love that thing? What do they call folks who Twit, Twit's, I wouldn't like that, but what the heck..
Geeez, what the Hell, I'll never figger this out, hashtags, misspelling, numbers for words.. But I took it it like everything else new in my life, horribly.. I sent out dozens of Tweets, with every possible hashtag I thought appropriate, Maureen is this U#MaureenOhara, Maureen is this U#redheadedwoman, Maureen is this U#TheQuietMan, like I thought maybe one of her best movies, but to no avail.. I did get back some really interesting replies, especially from my, Maureen is this U#HowGreenIsYourValley, that kid belongs in reform school..
Finally, I thought, what am I doing, if I found her, what would I do with her, tell her stories, get amorous, I still get excited, but forgot why.. I am going back on twitter, to teach them how to spell.. Never mind.. Time for a nap..

Oops. For a second there I thought I' stumbled across an old, previously unknown Firesign Theater album.
You have a way with words, Chef.

Well, I put a Kerbal into a stable orbit for the first time last night while playing “Kerbal Space Program”. So I guess I can check that one off the list.
Of course, I have no idea how to execute orbital maneuvers properly yet, so he is just going to have to float around up there until I figure that out :)

I remember coming across the movie “They Died with their Boots on” with Erol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland years ago. I was in love (with Olivia!).
It ran something like 3 hours on TV and I was up until 3am watching it. I mentioned it to my girlfriend (now wife) at the time describing it to her - but didn’t know the name of it - I had just come across it flipping the channels and stayed up all night watching it.
Oh - that’s TDWTBO - I have that!
I then asked about the actress. My wife said “Olivia de Havilland, in fact I just read where she is still alive - in France.”
She said my face lit up as I said “Wait - she’s still alive? Like I could go see her! Wow!!”
I might have to add that to my Bucket List.
Watching the movie again that is.
