Canned Laughter: The Statler Hilton Hotel
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/05/statler-hilton-hotel.html
Wednesday, May 21, 2008. The Statler Hilton Hotel. Built with a thousand rooms, convention facilities, showroom and 2000 seat ballroom, the hotel offered unheard of amenities for it's day including a helipad and televisions in every room so you would not have to miss a single episode of GE Playhouse, Ed Sullivan or The ALCOA Hour. Not into television? Opening Day was a glittering four day event with Hollywood stars and politicos. You know, Lebeau from "Hogan's Heroes"? On November 22, 1963 former Vice Pr...

Canned Laughter: But Don't Give Me The One That Makes Me Look 20 Years Younger
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/06/but-dont-give-me-one-that-makes-me-look.html
Monday, June 02, 2008. But Don't Give Me The One That Makes Me Look 20 Years Younger. So the doctor says to me, "There are two medications you can take for this, but medication A can cause rapid weight loss". My left eyebrow shot up and I gave him the same hard stare Mr. Spock always affected when dealing with a particularly stupid human. Um, so I'll just be writing the prescription for medication A".

Canned Laughter: The Sweetest Flower That Grows
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/04/sweetest-flower-that-grows.html
Sunday, April 20, 2008. The Sweetest Flower That Grows. I have a thing for roses. Antique roses, English roses, climbing roses, single roses, double roses, floribunda roses, I love them all. Luckily for me, they seem to love me back. Behold my wild, overgrown, absolutely fabulous Rose Garden:. I'm particularly fond of old fashioned singles because they remind me of summer on Martha's Vineyard. Here's another mystery. This was a Home Depot cheapo. It was an orange 'Austrian Copper'. The nurser...I'll trel...

Canned Laughter: But Wait! I Can Explain...
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/05/but-wait-i-can-explain.html
Tuesday, May 27, 2008. How I spent my three day weekend:. Surprising my girlfriend's husband by showing up at their front door in my night clothes while his wife was away. Leslie, you knew my scheduling goof would end up as blog fodder, didn't you? Donning the daughter version of our matching mother/daughter dresses to head over to my parents for the big clan hoopla. Having tremendous fun teasing my mother about wearing our matching dresses to Early Bird Specials and on Grey Line bus tours. Herding toddl...

Canned Laughter: Bad Fences Make Bad Neighbors
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/05/bad-fences-make-bad-neighbors.html
Sunday, May 18, 2008. Bad Fences Make Bad Neighbors. I loved my next door neighbors on the West side. They bought their home just after us and we were fairly close, sharing barbecues and card parties and gardening tasks. I even helped her plant a rose garden opposite to mine that is still lovely and thriving. Last fall they decided to build a home out in the country for their growing family and they sold their home to a retiree. Would be attractive and blend well into an automated driveway gate. The reti...

Canned Laughter: Dinner With Friends
http://txpoppet.blogspot.com/2008/05/dinner-with-friends.html
Sunday, May 18, 2008. The beautiful weather and my general comfort level had me a little perplexed when our host requested that we join him inside for dessert and espressos. What? You feed me heavy food and heady wine and then want me to lift my rump and move? Say it isn't so! Regretfully, I did indeed lift my. And tagged along into the house where we settled into the world's cushiest, comfiest, most snuggle wonderful chairs for our coffee. Well, OK I didn't really fall asleep, but I do have to admit to ...
