It’s mid-week, so it’s time to check on everyone, so I hope all is well.
The weather front passing through brought us significant rain and a drastic change in weather … it’s no sunny, pleasantly warm with a touch of coolness in the breeze … amazingly, very uncharacteristic of July! … and this is true for much of the eastern half of the USA.
Lousy golf today, then again … after a good streak, I was due to have my worst round in several months. That’s OK because as I told the other three after the last hole …. lousy golf but great company.
Life: The Musical is the next post with “School” being the Act 7 theme. I expanded the word list, so song titles with the following words are acceptable: School, Teacher, Student, College, compound words beginning with school, a specific grade level (be careful). The performance starts Wednesday, 9: 30 PM (Eastern US).
The recent super moon sparked an idea for your midweek satire as I dived into The Onion’s archives searching for headlines. Any favorites? Enjoy and have a good rest of the week.
Kim Jong-Un announces plan to bring Moon to North Korea
Colorado wildfire spreads to Moon
Area mooning goes unnoticed
Footage of Neil Armstrong playing saxophone on Moon clearly a fake
Moon finally hatches
Pope announces plan to build Moon Vatican
NASA acquires Moon for Kennedy Space Center exhibit
Majority of Americans believe US already has a Moon base
North Korea celebrates as Kim Jong-Un becomes first man to walk on the Moon
Neptune uses Uranus to moon Jupiter …. (but not from The Onion)

What is a Moon Vatican Frank? I feel I have missed something.

Colline,
Well, short headlines can be ambiguous, so to me, it’s Just building a Vatican on the Moon … here’s the radio report. http://www.theonion.com/audio/pope-announces-plan-to-build-moon-vatican,14104/

Rather than a Moon Vatican, can we get a Moon Congress? Then they can go bicker up there so the rest of us don’t have to listen to it.

Rain? I don’t know the concept.

I like, “moon finally hatches”. hmmm, I’ll be thinking about songs for the musical, and being careful about specific grade levels? It’s been incredibly wet here in the South. Guess I’m going to have to retrieve the soggy laundry from the clothes line, and run ’em trough the spin cycle. Maybe one day the sun will shine again. 😀 This weather also caused great disappointment in not being able to see the super moon, at all!!

Victoria,
Moon hatches is a good one! Regarding my grade level comment for the musical … example … if the song title included “Grade 5” or “Fifth Grade” …. OK … no problem … but just “5” or “fifth” wouldn’t work because there isn’t school reference. Hope that makes sense.
