This week is the 40th anniversary of the movie Fame. Was too young to watch the movie at the time, but I remember the original -- sanitized -- TV show.

Made me remember Gene Anthony Ray, who played Leroy Johnson --- one of the first men I can remember having a crush on (maybe that's why I'm still attracted to darker skinned men). He died of a stroke in 2003 at 41.

Never saw the movie, but I did watch the TV show. Sad to hear about Gene Anthony Ray. I can remember Leroy very clearly.

I can agree with this one. I’ve found silver linings on more than one occasion.

Yay for Tuesday!   Only today and tomorrow to do, then I'm off for a nice long weekend. Working Sunday to Thursday means you never get long weekends, so you have to make your own. 

Yesterday was a Holiday here, but i decided to work, get time and a half.. and took Thursday off..

 

Have a good day all!!

 

[mollyhousemouse]

@Mikiesboy thanks always for the encouragement i look forward to them every morning 🌄

Excuse me Good Sirs and DiC

just wanted to stop in and say good afternoon.

Just spoke with my Manager and it looks like we are going to work from home until July. 

Last night was a stormy night we had 3 storms go over us all night. So ever time we thought it was over it would rain again. The dogs hates the storms so i had a 50 lb lapdog most of the night. 

So how are things with you?

we'll be working remotely until at least end of June, so right there with you rick!
our big lab mix gets anxious during storms too, he paces and whines. we got him some CBD treats to help calm him
they work like a charm!

well i'm off to bed, so i'll say goodnight
hope to see everyone tomorrow

Took Friday off, so I'll have a nice 4-day weekend. Unfortunately, it could be storming three of those days.

The University won't "reopen to outside visitors until July 7" so we'll be home until then. Some people may start going back in June, but they would prefer those be limited as possible.
