DOGS WE HAVE LOVED
A SHORT ESSAY ABOUT OUR DOGS IN THIS LIFETIME AND THE NEXT LIFETIME........ Having had dogs since I was a small lad, I would miss dogs. As I grow older, I reflect on all of the dogs that have entered my life and left my life throughout the years. There are many great memories. It is my belief that in our final lifetime, we shall not only be reunited with loved ones but the dogs and cats we have loved so much. Perhaps not all, but some of those who thought we were truly good keepers. It might well be left to the dog's choice. Robert L. Huffstutter

ONE OF MY GOOD ON-LINE FRIENDS JUST OPENED A NEW DOOR FOR ME, THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS FILES...UNBELIEVABLE PHOTOS OF SPORTS FIGURES, MEXICAN WAR, NEW YORK SOCIETY, YOU NAME IT, A HISTORY BUFF's BONANZA. THANKS TO A FRIEND, I HAVE A VOLUME OF NEW IMAGES TO VIEW, REVIEW...and take my mind off whatever it is in today's world that doesn't set right with me. Now, I can stick my head in the sand and become the proverbial ostrich while the world copulates with all the evil-doers and money-changers. So, I shall now get into the channeling mood and go back to this most marvelous day in history when the N.Y. Public Library opened its doors for the first time. It is a most impressive building. There is one hell of a lot of concrete involved here. So, what construction company got rich on this project.....................?

"If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military, the hired servants of our rulers. Only the government --and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws."

Bob Hope and Jerry Colonna USO Show 001
Bob Hope and Jerry Colonna USO Show 001
Found Photo -
Jerry Colonna (Gerardo Luigi Colonna, September 17, 1904, Boston, Massachusetts - November 21, 1986, Woodland Hills, California) was an Italian-American comedian, singer and songwriter, remembered best as the zaniest of Bob Hope's sidekicks on Hope's popular radio shows and films of the 1940s and 1950s.
With his pop-eyed facial expressions and walrus-sized handlebar mustache, Colonna was known for singing loudly "in a comic caterwaul," according to Raised on Radio author Gerald Nachman, and for his catch phrase, "Who's Yehudi?", uttered after many an old joke, although it usually had nothing to do with the joke. The line was believed to be named for violin virtuoso Yehudi Menuhin, and the search for Yehudi became a running gag on the Hope show.
Colonna played a range of nitwitted characters, the best remembered of which was a moronic professor. Nachman wrote:
Colonna brought a whacked-out touch to Hope's show. In a typical exchange, Hope asks, "Professor, did you plant the bomb in the embassy like I told you?", to which Colonna replied, in that whooping five-alarm voice, "Embassy? Great Scott, I thought you said NBC!
Colonna was part of several of Hope's early USO tours during the 1940s. Jack Benny's singing sidekick Dennis Day, a talented impressionist as well as a singer, did an effective imitation of Colonna's manic style and expressions.
