ErMG!...What does Playtex have to do with Neil Armstrong?
“A spacesuit is made out of a flight suit, a Goodrich tire, a bra, a girdle, a raincoat, a tomato worm.”. ~From the book Spacesuit: Fashioning Apollo, by Nicholas de Monchaux~
That’s what a spacesuit was made from in 1969 when astronaut Neil Armstrong, who died this past weekend, donned the bulky, Pillsbury-Doughboy-looking suit of great engineering and design ingenuity to take humankind’s first steps on the moon.
ErMG!...For all you Poodle Lovers out there...
ErMG!...Speaking of Dog Food...be very careful of canned goods you pick up while shopping & not paying attention because you're A.ON THE DAMN PHONE_B.TEX TING_C.ON THE DAMN PHONE! Stop it please.This arrangement was spotted at a local store_

ErMG!..Yet,another Public Service Announcement...According to an article in Smithsonian Magazine_(it is implied by Mr.Waters)_do not use Pink Plastic Flamingos aka "pink porn" for lawn decoration!
From the Smithsonian Collections:Plastic Flamingos c.1980
These tchotchkes were a hit in 1957_Sculptor Don Featherson of Leominster,Mass. second assignment at Union Plastics was to sculpt a fake pink plastic bird "A Flamingo". Post WW II _these babies showed up on every lawn in America's new "Suburgatory".There was a decline when they became reaaaaallly a sign of "tackiness".But like the phoenix_they made a comeback mid-80's_holding the distinction of being in the Smithsonian Collection of Arts & Culture!
The 1972 movie "Pink Flamingo"_Directed,Produced,Written & Narrated by John Waters(whew that's a mouth full)_ had nothing to do with flamingos.He just thought the name was outrageous! However,Waters maintains that plastic lawn flamingos should be kept inside,“like pornography,”..pink porn!

ErMG!...Ladies how are we EVER gonna get people to believe we are serious if we are buying into the fairy tale movie "Cinderella"_ by purchasing "GLASS SLIPPERS"?
DSW has partnered with Disney on The Glass Slipper Collection
But,of course_Mr.Louboutin has a limited edition "Cinderella Collection"..retail $6,400.00...yes that's American dollars!

ErMG!....take a look at the sky on Friday Night_8/31/12!
"My Remembrance of a Blue Moon"_In high school my brother sang Bass in a boys group.I sang with a girl's group_check out the video from a previous post_at a 2004 Class reunion_the original members of "The Fab-U-lous Bunchettes(1967) Ralph J Bunche High School.On that same program,I re-delivered my Salutatorian Address as I'd kept it all those years!
http://sagebookwhisperer.blogspot.com/2011/09/fab-u-lous-bunchettes.html
Now,my brother's group was practicing the most popular song at that time "Blue Moon" for an upcoming program.One evening after Dad came home from work_he's relaxing in front of the TV_Jr was practicing his singing part in his bedroom(door closed)...on & on & on_until my Dad in his very serious voice_never raising it_but_threaten Jr's LIFE if he sang that song one more time.The rest of us were hysterical with laughter,tears,couldn't breathe type laughter_finally Dad even laughed! Here's a clip of that song,so you'll understand.Remember the lead part is Bass_my brother's part!
So now you know why my Dad threaten my brother's Life...bomb bah babomb abomb bahbomb bomb.
Hey,that's a Wrap on ErMG! for the week.
Signing off with a Blast from the past_
