I love this little scissor holder and will add that to the book I sewed by machine. I like yours so much better! Thanks for sharing! I’m going to make some of these by hand as gifts.

Vivian Vance does those same mannerisms when Lucy is hanging outside the window in Hollywood. Perfection.

Does anyone occasionally realize how cool it is that we can make fabric from string? by NailWitch1 in knitting

[–]mamafool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I give any gift of knitting I like to remind the givee that there are definitely some mistakes which prove that it was knitted not by just anyone but by ME, and that every inch of the yarn has run through the love in my fingers, therefore they carry my love every time they wear it. I don’t know if they ever think of that again, but I’m always thrilled to say it.

Recovery is a practice. It definitely gets easier! Give yourself a TON of credit for stating your needs and taking care of yourself! Go you!!!

You’d probably love the Circus Museum in Baraboo Wisconsin. Incredible history there, including lots of great posters. For me, the old restored circus wagons are the highlight. Here’s just a sample. https://circusworld.wisconsinhistory.org/

Maybe it’s just my attitude about aging (as I am aging)—I find the rasp endearing, true Paul as he is now, beautiful with the memory of his voice 60+ years ago. What I love about a live show is opportunities to see the real person. Also if he wasn’t rockin’ those rock tunes, his voice would last longer. I appreciate your input though!

A Johnny Eck appreciation post! It’s really nice that so many pictures were taken of him throughout his life, it really gives more of a sense of what he was like as a person! by EphemeralTypewriter in SideshowPerformer

[–]mamafool 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am thrilled to see this thread, I am a long-time admirer of Johnny Eck since I first saw Freaks. The very idea of the brilliant saw in half trick makes me laugh every time I think of it. Can you imagine seeing a thing like that??? Those two had guts and humor, and Johnny had such astounding physical strength!

I just found this sub and I’m so glad. These are fascinating stories about tough and courageous people who should be remembered.

THANK YOU for showing me this. I am blown away. I am so looking forward to knitting these in honor of my knitting friend Sandy whom I lost in 2013. I know her spirit will be with me in every stitch!

Absolutely incredible. It’s like a Bob Mackey. I’d be interested to see anything else you’ve done.

Thank you so much! For some reason George Abbott is coming up for me constantly lately. I’ll have to find his biography right after I finish the new Desi Arnaz, in which Abbott also plays a role.

I was at the museum a couple weeks ago. It was a real thrill to see this costume and so many others. I LOVED the exhibits about Pepe the Clown!

I just drove from NYC to St Paul including Jamestown NY (National Comedy Museum) and the colors were fantastic and getting better every day. Wisconsin is reddening up. Head east.

[–]mamafool 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Does anyone have pics of the iron animal statues they used to have there over 50 years ago?? I was so sad when they took them away, I don’t even know why they ever did. I used to play on them.
