FRIDAY FEBRUARY 22ND, 2013

Welcome to my little Friday "toast and Jammies" BLOG....although a friend of mine calls it a BLOB.....IT'S BEEN A FROST RATING EXPERIENCE this week with all the cold overnights...although it is suppose to be moderating over the next few days. OLD MAN WINTER is even throwing in a couple of plus temperatures, and of course a few chances of snow are added just to keep us from getting too excited with thoughts of Spring. Gas is very expensive these days ,around $1.30 but back in 1984 there must have been a gas-war going on.  Barrie was at 43.4 cents but Wasaga Beach was down as low as 29.9 cents per litre.  It was so low...The Queen came over for a Philip. (fill-up).
  On this date in history in 1810, Polish composer Frederic Chopin, who brought piano music to new heights by establishing the piano as a solo instrument was born near Warsaw.

In 1965 the Beatles began filming "Help" their 2nd movie, in the Bahamas, Austria and England and they said it was filmed "in a haze of Marijuwana" and was sort of a "Frantic romp on Pot".  It was also a forerunner to music videos and was later copied by the Monkee's TV shows. I managed to see the Beatles at Maple Leaf Gardens in 1965.

Famous Peeps born this date:

In 1903 Canadian Writer Morley Callaghan, Edward Kennedy in 1932.  George Washington (1732-1799)  Drew Barrymore is 38, Julius Irving is 63, ViJay Singh is 50 in 1857, Lord Baden Powell was born. (the founder of theBoy Scout movement) . 

For those of you who are "Star Trek Fans".....The most beautiful of the female stars, although she was a Borg, She was a friendly Borg, "7 of  9" was her name although I would give her a 9 out of 9.  She was played by actor Geri Ryan and she is 45 today and in Ed Sullivan tradition  I  will show her only from the neck up so male readers won't have heart-attacks. (I don't want to be sued). She is "BORG-A-LICIUS"

and finally.....We leave you with a final thought for a T-Shirt Slogan...as the Cold weather continues.......'LETS SNUFF OUT COLDS"

MORNIIN' EVERY BODY...MORNIN"
