My Dear Sillies,
Here's hoping 2026 started off well, and that it's a decent year. At the very least. May it bring love, joy, and laughter - in spite of it all.
Do keep a smile and a stash of good chocolate on hand.
I love you.
I'm still missing Dick...

Dick who? I hope you find him!
ReplyDeleteMe too, SWS. Me too.
DeleteHope your year's started beautifully.
Dick was born on my birthday 17 years before me. He made it to 82 years old. I'm going to try and beat that. Oh, and how about if I send you some measurements to make sure I'm not to tall or small?
ReplyDeleteYuck and no. No and yuck.
DeleteI just miss Dick Clark, Mike.
Happy New Year.
I miss Dick, too. We're goin' hoppin', we're goin' hoppin' today, where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way . . . Oh, yeah, Dick, you pop your cork.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Thank you. What a swinger I am, I am on American bandstand. Bandstand! Would've been so fun to be on his show, right Janie?
DeleteLove you.
If I had been on American Bandstand, it probably would have been censored because I would have done something naughty and crazy. But wouldn't it have been fun to dance and see the famous singers?
DeleteHahaha. So so fun. We could've done some naughty and crazy things to get Dick's reaction.
DeleteHappy New Year. And while I stayed up to midnight, I didn't even turn on the TV so never even thought about Dick.
ReplyDeleteI think about him every New Year's regardless. It wasn't NYE without Dick Clark and shirley temples and wheat thins topped by Cheese Whiz. Yeah, we were a high class crew.
DeleteHappy New Year, Jeff.
Oh dearest Dick, sometimes, he could be a prick, but what do I know, I'm sick. I do miss his non aging face who must have been 200 yrs old but with a smile to beguile.
ReplyDeleteExcellent poetic description of the Dick. You're ever humorous and slick.
DeleteIf we could turn back time (ode to Cher)... hey, Dick Van Dyke is still kicking - how about some Supercalifragilicious 100 year old Dick....
ReplyDeleteHappy (??) New Year, my friend. Holy crap - 2026 is looking pretty nuts already. You take care!
Is Van Dyke a centurion Dick? Wow and no thanks.
DeleteStay safe and as sane as possible, Joanne. It's the most we can do.
Where in the world is Dick? Keep smiling and laughing; it beats the alternative.
