When Norah Met Sally

On January 16, 2025, we were watching the CBS Evening News, as one does around our house.  Something about Norah O'Donnell's dress intrigued me.
It was the embroidery or stitching or what-you-call-it on her left shoulder.  It reminded me of another raven-haired beauty, this one from the movies.
Yup, it was Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
I wonder if anybody else watched the news that night and wondered if Norah could likewise unravel her arm from her body?
See you on Monday for the beginning of a MAXI MUSICAL MONTH OF MAY!

The Wonders of Bulldog Clips

Behold the lowly bulldog clip!
To the unimaginative, these critters are only for office use.  But I say ...
Along with a couple of paper clips, use 'em to hang a calendar over a door!
Use as a gather to hold too-long straps out of your way!
Longing for the old days when those metal toothpaste tubes would stay rolled up?  With a bulldog, your toothpaste stays put at the nozzle end!
When your license-plate frame starts to curl up, bulldogs keep it trim and tight!

What uses have YOU found?  See you Thursday for the last entry in this year's APRIL FOOLISHNESS!
