hildy89So I spent another Thanksgiving with the family. To my surprise, we were not going out to a restaurant after all, but staying in. Actually that suited me fine. We had an amusing parlor game involving seeing how many well known faces we recognized in various pictures. The pictures included some politicans, some poets, some actors and some public figures. I managed #22 out of a possible #31, which wasn't bad. I was amused I could recognize Michael Eisner, but not our Virginia governor, nor Al Gore. Both bad photos to judge by, though. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ladyofchulak may or may not be amused that one of my relatives thought the picture of Harry S. Truman looked like Dick Cheney.
I also discovered that my Nano cover has been blown sky high. My uncle found my Nano profile through a Google search of my name, which includes a link to my Nano LJ. Ooops! So my quiet day away from the books was spent trying to explain things to my family. At least their eyes didn't completely glaze over.
Leave it to my other uncle, vintage car and Civil War nut, to provide the entertainment in the form of old highway safety films to serve as warnings for his young impressionable nephews. One was "Last Date" which featured a very young Dick York of "Bewitched" fame as a reckless driver. The other one was "Signal 30" that my uncle recalls having to get a permission slip signed to be allowed to watch. Glad it was after dinner rather than before.
