"One After 909"

 Digital Hoarding XII

Another set of pictures I have collected. Some are from the past and a few are recent. I put them in the folder marked 910, the One After 909. I was going to publish last evening but decided to wait for today 9/09/24. I guess I should wait until tomorrow, One After 909.

Not remembering any of the categories I have used in the past, these latest have been divided into Cats, Personal, Cartoon, Words, and Strange. Enjoy the hoard!

Cats

Being a cat owner for most of my adult life (none at the moment), I always love cat jokes.

LOL

I guess I saved this one for Halloween.

Personal

I went to the retirement dinner for two of my friends and past co-workers from ENSCO. This was in the invitation they sent out...

I must have grabbed this from my niece Lori, the little one in this older photo, with her mom, my sister Pat (aka Patsy and Patricia).

One of the albums I have not taken apart and scanned is the Pub Crawl synopsis with itineraries and photos. Here are two pages that Ed Kennedy had put together before our Southern Pub Crawl.  The second page has my notes which become worse and worse as more beers are consumed...It was a great time.

Another grab from Lori, here as a proud mother with her son Rowan who just graduated High School, class of 2024. Proud dad James on the left.

Cartoon

Reference is The Honeymooners for the younger readers,

I shared this one on the Facebook page of Elaine and Jeff, who like to do jigsaw puzzles.

Words

Oh my...that is a lot of sugar...

This is just interesting...

Ha ha!

I was reading a book or article that mentioned a ski area I had never heard of before. It looks like a great mountain to visit, but I am getting too old for skiing.

I still like to cook and found this graphic very interesting and helpful. I still like to make my own blends for baking and stir-frying.

The final one is a scene with Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction talking to the John Travolta character about a TV show she was going to be on. Interestingly, she is describing the Kill Bill movie characters she made with Tarantino.

Strange

It was marked as an orchid...not sure if real or not but scary either way.

We did a lot of camping when I was a kid. My dad would have used these around the campfire.

The lady was complaining that the birds were not eating the seeds in her bird feeder. It is a hummingbird feeder and you are suppose to fill with nectar that they drink from the yellow holes. Some people have no clue! Ha ha.

These are the seed pods from a snap dragon plant. Wow!

About Title

"One After 909" (sometimes entitled "The One After 909" in early recordings) is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1970 album Let It Be. It was written by John Lennon, with input from Paul McCartney, and credited to their joint partnership. The album version is the live performance from the rooftop concert which took place on 30 January 1969. This performance is also included in the Let It Be film. The song was written no later than spring 1960 and perhaps as early as 1957, and is one of the first Lennon–McCartney compositions. "One After 909" is perhaps more reminiscent of early American rock and roll than any of the other songs from the rooftop show, and as a joke for the rooftop chatter, Lennon sings a variant on the opening line of "Danny Boy" after the song is finished.

The first version was recorded in 1960 under The Quarrymen name.
