JSS: Shorpy-- "The Glass Castle"-- Cold Then Hot-- Don Williams-- Jay Cutler On Losing


JSS--  Just Some Stuff

1.  SHORPY--  (The Old Photo Site)   If you want to see a World War II Home Front picture that just screams Norman Rockwell, look up the  Shorpy website for June 8, 2017  "The Ladies Who Lunch" 1943.  The photo was taken in Clinton, Iowa.  These women were employed as railroad wipers while the men were away at war.  The U.S. home front.

2.  "THE GLASS CASTLE"--  To me it seems there just aren't many movies out right now that I want to see.  I didn't know about this one, but it was too cold to go boating, so I went to the Fox Lake Theatre and saw this movie.  As far as I am concerned, this one should get Academy Award nominations for Best Movie, best Actor (Woody Harrelson) and Best Actress for the actress who played the young girl.

3.  COLD THEN HOT--  Crazy weather around here.  First it was quite cool and lately it has been quite hot.  At least it is not a hurricane.  The cool temperatures have really started the trees to turning those great fall colors.

4.  DON WILLIAMS--  Sitting here a-typin' away with my two little fingers and listening to a Don Williams greatest hits CD.  You forget how good he was.  We'll sure miss him.

4.  JAY CUTLER ON LOSING--  I couldn't help but chuckle when our fearsome ex-qb Jay Cutler complained that the Bears lost too many games while he was there.  Jay, might you have had something to do with all those losses?  The Jay replacement, Glennon, hasn't proved to be much better, but at least we don't have to look at Ol' Sour Puss, Pouty Face sitting by himself on the sidelines and thinking about all that money he was earning for not doing much.

What is frightening, though, is what if Jay turns into a decent qb with Miami?  After we had to put up with him for what seemed forever.
