News Flash?

According to the news on the Internet today, Michael Landon was a father at 12 years old. Seems his eldest son was found dead at the age of 60. Michael died in 1991 at the age of 54. Granted, my mathematical skills are not so great....but! I suppose it was either a misprint or an adoption. Either way, my sincere condolences to the Landon family.

There is not a cloud in the sky here in my little corner of Alabama. It's not expected to stay this way, and the drought is definitely over! It's the other end of the spectrum now, we are having flooding issues in some places. The weatherman says my day will be mostly cloudy today, with a chance of rain later this afternoon. In other words, the local forecast is: Rain, Forever.

I have been absent from Blogger for so long that when I came back to make an entry, it made me realize how much I miss AOL J-Land. The journals were so much easier to deal with than Blogs. Yes, I know they are the same thing, but the programs are not.

I am at work, so I better act like I'm here for something other than blogging.

Later, Sweet Taters

    Just so you know, my curiousity got the best of me and I researched Michael Landon's bio. This son was adopted by him, it was his first wife's oldest child.

    Mark Landon was his adopted son like another commenter said, I wondered too when I saw the headline. We so desperately need rain here; fearing it will be a long dry summer with lots of fires.....

    I too miss AOL journals; it was easier to maneuver around and a better sense of community. Oh well, we're adaptible right??

    take care of yourself
