#WW A Poem

“

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Musical Monday's Celebration

I woke up to a wonderful surprise this morning. For several years, I've been trying to get a product featured in the Teachers Pay Teachers newsletter. It's not easy, but when I opened the emailed newsletter, TADA, there was my free product. I don't even remember submitting it.

As a result, I've had a good sales day, and my followers have increased. Furthermore, I've had more page visits and downloads than any other product! I've been told that the sales bump and follower increases take place for the entire week. This is what I've seen so far.

I'm curious to see the stats at the end of the week. Plus, I had already garners multiple visits and downloads before I'd even woken up. So, Music Monday calls for a celebration. Here is Kool and the Gang!

Happy Halloween - Keep the Spiders Away

As I sit here sipping my coffee out of my Halloween spider mug, I think, spiders are scary. Some people put fake webs all over their bushes for Halloween, and it makes me cringe. I'm okay with cute purple and orange ones on a black mug but don't show me a real one . . . or even a realistic plastic spider. Yuck. So here's to 'em.

I know she's trying to be all sensitive about the critter's endurance, but I would have smooshed the thing because . . .

So, Happy Halloween and don't get bitten by any spooky spiders.

#WW Another Reason to Vote

You never know who will be in line with you at the voting booth.

#MM Driving

This morning my daughter and I were heading to Michael's to buy crafts. When she asked where to find the store, I told her to get on Poplar Avenue and HEAD EAST. I told her that would be a good name for a band, and she agreed. When I told her it was a band, she thought I'd made the name up for one of my novels. Nope! They are real.

Since our conversation was about driving, how about another driving song . . . that goes with the season, too. Here is AC/DC.

Musical Monday: Old Campaign Songs

Campaigns seemed to be a lot nicer way back when. At least the ads were better. Here is a cute little ad for Eisenhower from 1952. Don't you wish political ads were still like this?

If you were voting in 1960, you might have heard this little jingle on your TV set.
