Rose and Silvia
The photo is unmarked, but I can identify the McDowell sisters, probably with their spouses. Since they were both married multiple times I don't know who the gentlemen are exactly. Rose is on the chair, Silvia on the floor.
The James Buchanan Song
If I was Gay
I sure wouldn't say
"Buchanan was one of us."
Even if it was true.
Because it's quite possible,
Nay, probable,
He was the worst President
Under the red, white and blue.

Gordon's Grocery, McCleary, Washington
Apparently there is some big football game coming up, involving the Seattle Seahawks, and people seem happy and excited. I don't know who they are playing, when the game is supposed to be taking place, etc. But I do like seeing my neighbors feeling celebratory. Those are helium filled Seattle Seahawks football helmet-shaped balloons in the background. I like the fact this display is over the fruit section and not above the beer locker, but somehow I don't think the fans are going to be peeling oranges while watching the game!

The Franklin D. Roosevelt Song
My Dad hated him
My Mom loved him
And in that regard
My family was America
Even though Franklin Roosevelt
Was dead before I was born
Favorite Movie Quotes: The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
"You can be much more alone with other people than you are by yourself, even if its people you love."
Goldie?
Unidentified, but I suspect this is a photo of Goldie, Rose's developmentally disabled daughter who died in her 20s. Don't know which one of Rose's husbands would've been the father.

Phone photo 3131
Been awhile since I have seen one of these repulsive things
A discarded portable dental floss thingie in the parking lot of the Tumwater, Washington Post Office. This looks like a pretty fancy one probably used by some hoit-de-la-freakin'-toit in their mouth and then thrown on the pavement for the rest of us to enjoy. Note the strand is broken, so they were quite vigorous in filing out those chunks of crap between their teeth.
Yeeech.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Evan Almighty
The Lyndon Baines Johnson Song
No President ever did more for civil rights
Than Lyndon Baines Johnson
No President ever did more for education
Than Lyndon Baines Johnson
No President ever did more in fighting poverty
Than Lyndon Baines Johnson
No President ever did more in promoting space exploration
Than Lyndon Baines Johnson
But it was the way he conducted the Vietnam War
That became his divided legacy
What a waste
The Zachary Taylor Song
Zachary Taylor was
The last elected Whig.
Known as "Old Rough and Ready"
His ego wasn't so big.
He didn't put on airs,
His sloppy clothes drew stares.
And if he hadn't died in office
The Civil Waaaaaaaaaaaaar
Would've started a decade earlier.
Favorite Movie Quotes: Casino Royale (2006)
