Good Day.
Just applied for my lifetime VFW card membership.
Post Commander said I was banned if I was eligible and had not signed up after 3 visits LOL
I love the “understanding” of the little ones. The things they hear are precious.
Most definately,
I was having a bad day until my boyfriend sent me a Ros-sini vase! 🌹🎶
Have a beautiful evening, and God bless you!
BTTT
BTTT
I am so glad you got a Ros-ini vase!
I have been so Bizet, I have not been able to Khachaturian Break!
My To-Do Lizst is getting so long, I just want to stuff it in my Purcell, Go to a Bar(ber), Hoist a Meyerbeer, and Roch-ma-nana-off!
I will watch myself, though, and behave, as I do not want to be branded with a Scarlatti letter.
U2!
(I’ll stop now. Don’t wanna Beatle a dead horse with no name.)
No don’t stop- think a-bout tomorrow! I’m really good at Songburst- or as we say in Italian: Bono!
OK..I won’t stop.
Wild Horses Couldn’t tear me away from the Canteen. I used to be a n00b, but, I got to admit, it’s getting better...a little better all the time.
But, try to remember, you can’t always get what you want!
Great job! My brain's been on "stall" so I cheated and looked up some classical composers. Here's one that gave me a chuckle: Pietro Gnocchi. Actually from the Baroque period, he was a real Renaissance man- mufti-talented. Funny part: his name translates into "Peter Dumpling"! Just like Alfredo Coccozza, aka Mario Lanza, "Al Squash"! Talk about losing something in the translation!
Gnocchi, the food! The lines come from rolling little pillows of dough over an inverted fork...
I have no idea what Ezio Pinza would be in English. Some enchanted evening I may figure it out... Maybe it's not for me to say!
God bless you!
Sam Schwartz, from the Bronx, looked EXACTLY like Ezio Pinza.
Everywhere he went, people would point at him and yell, “EZIO PINZA!!!!” to which he would reply, with equal fervor, “SAM SCHWARTZ, FROM THE BRONX!!!!”
One day, Sam had to take a business trip. He hailed a cab to Laguardia, and as he stepped off the curb, the cab driver pointed at him excitedly and yelled, “EZIO PINZA!!!!” To which Sam answered:
“SAM SCHWARTZ, FROM THE BRONX!!!!”
He gets to the airport. The Check-in attendant takes one look at him and yells:
“EZIO PINZA!!!!” To which Sam answered:
“SAM SCHWARTZ, FROM THE BRONX!!!!”
He gets on the plane. The stewardess takes one look at him, points at him excitedly, and says:
“EZIO PINZA!!!!” To which Sam answered:
“SAM SCHWARTZ, FROM THE BRONX!!!!”
Finally he gets to his destination. Somehow he gets the key to the wrong hotel room, and when he goes into the room he is confronted by a ravishing blonde in a filmy negligee.
She takes one look at him and exclaims:
“EZIO PINZA!!!!” To which Sam answered:
“SAMMMM en CHANTED EVENING......!!!!”
