Rabbit hole and how they happen.

See video short from Singin' in the Rain and blank on Donald O'Connor's name. (As SOON as I hit the cast listing, it came to me)

See that Cyd Charisse was also in the movie. Know her name, but don't know all her work. Decide to click on her Wiki entry and start reading.

See that one of Cyd Charisse's DIL died in the infamous plane crash at O'Hare in 1979. Click on that link to once again read details about it because my orthodontist helped identify bodies from the crash via dental records.

So, Singin' in the Rain video clip leads to reading about airplane crash that killed nearly 250 people over 45 years ago.

Not exactly sure.
Ate at sweet Caroline’s last night. Had always liked it, but last nights may keep us from going back for awhile. One person likes their meal, one said okay and 3 thought it was bad.

Where is that one? I've actually not hit that one yet when I've been in town. Cornbread or El Azteca is normally where I land.

That's a LOT of swans!
They like to hang out in Crystal lake either start of winter or end of. Many times 2x that amount and a couple hundred honkers. I have 2 jackwagons that seem to hang out in the same spot in my home place every March/April. I had one try to attack my field cultivator when working ground one year on another farm. 10k dollar fine to kill one, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do if it ran under and got killed.

Old whiskey river.
It's actually in where Old Main Brewery was at. I've been disappointed lately with Sweet's food. It has more to do with it coming out hot than anything. Ordered boneless wings the Saturday of the KSU football game. Waited a half hour and they were barely warm and you could tell by looking that them they had been sitting for a while. I took them back. If can order tater tots I will always order them over fries. Love it when they come out hot and crunchy. Lately there I think they put them all in a holding bin under a lamp. Kinda soft and soggy the last few times I've been there. I will say though the fried chicken always comes out hot and it's never left me down.

I usually get the meatloaf but hadn’t the last couple times. This time I literally thought it was a piece of toast with their hot gravy on it. That was how thin the meatloaf was. It very well could have been some old hamburger with that gravy on it since you could taste anything but the gravy because of that. The mashed potatoes were a step over room temp.

Two kids had the wing bowl where it’s like chicken nuggets/corn/and mashed potatoes and gravy. Both had a very nasty taste from something going on. My 17 year old son ate maybe 1/4 of it and quit. This kid eats a lot and almost anything. I tried it and had to agree with him that it was nasty.
