CASTING CALL!

Open casting call for man to play time traveler. Must be willing to relocate. Ideal candidate will have an easy manner, how should I say...a je ne said quoi. Good sense of humor a plus. Ability to make small talk and love of jazz required. Historical clothes will be provided, though we'd suggest bringing your own undies if you do not wish to wear authentic undergarments of time period. No pay, but will provide references upon completion. Travel stipend will be provided. Good luck. 

Any suggestions as to who we should cast for this part?

COMING HOME from grandma's house

Traveling this weekend in the United States will be a challenge. Not much you can do about it. But if you choose to drive like this family you're just asking for it.

I'm guessing on their way to grandma's for Thanksgiving they all faced out the front of the car. But for the trip home they seemed to think they just had to look out the back and put it in reverse. The half-assed backwards way of travel. I'm betting there are some folks tied up in traffic about now who don't think this is such a bad idea.

Though not a float for a parade, it makes about as much as sense as the prompt this week for Sepia Saturday.

GRANNY in the flesh on Thanksgiving

It's just one meal on one day out of a whole year. Get along.

I think the young fella might be wondering how he ended up dining with Granny from the Tweety Bird and Sylvester cartoons.

The Ed Grimley INFLUENCE ON HAIRSTYLES

Could it be that Ed Grimley influenced hairstyles? Or was Ed influenced by this once "popular" style? Was it once in one of those hairdo magazines? If you wanted this style what did you ask for? Was there a name? Perhaps it was merely called Hair Bulb from the Latin Hairous Bulbous.

She's just SO DOGGONE HAPPY!

Was it the new hat? Was it the surprise of the flash? Was there someone outside the booth telling jokes? Or did she just want a really nice picture to send her sweetheart?



Whatever was going on THIS WOMAN WAS REALLY HAPPYI! Sadly her happiness was sold for 25 cents. I couldn't resist her when I found her smiling up at me in the bin of useless pose for grandma shots.

I hope she brings a smile to you on this Monday morning.

Time-Traveling-Celebrity JERRY LEWIS/JIM CARREY

If you were going to time travel would you do it as a character from Dumb and Dumber? Would it just be too hard to resist going back in time to act like a fool knowing no matter what you did there'd be no trace?

Sorry Jim, but I think we got you. Or wait, could that be a young Jerry Lewis? We'll never know. It's just possibly a recorded sighting of a time-traveling-celebrity.

So, how does this fit into the Sepia Saturday theme this week? Ummmmm…I'm thinking…ummmmm…okay, maybe this is Jim Carrey taking a pose for famed silhouette artist Eveline Adelheid von Maydell. Oh, wouldn't you like to have witnessed that event? And if anyone has found the silhouette I think you might be sitting on a fortune…or just an old piece of black paper that makes no sense at all.

Don't understand this whole time-traveling-celebrity theory? Just click on the label below to see previous celebrity sightings through time.

GLENN CLOSE, Time Traveling Celebrity

The incredibly kind and beautiful Katherine of Photobooth Journal sent me this photo to add to my Time-Traveling-Celebrity series. Thank you Katherine. And I hope you are beginning to feel better. Miss you.

Ladies and Gents, I give you Glenn Close, Time Traveling Celebrity, most likely doing some research for her Academy Award nominated part for Albert Nobbs.

Don't believe me? Take a look at the poster for the film Albert Nobbs.

Again, thank you Katherine. You are so kind.

REMEMBER me?

This lady was the featured post on January 8th of 2014. It was quite a surprise to find another shot of her. It's always nice to find a shot of someone you've seen before. I still long to find more shots of Ernie, but there haven't been any in years. I keep my hope that someday he'll smile back at me from the vintage suitcase at the antique store.

If you don't know Ernie simply do a search for him in the search widget in the left column. I think he's worth it.
