HOLA Night OwlZ & Early BirdZ
Tonight’s Essential Cartoon pokes fun at myself.
Ever since I was a teen I had tried to roll my R’s when practicing Spanish. 35 years later, I still can’t do it. I can flap my tongue around in my mouth like a flopping fish, but that’s all I can muster. No nicely sounding motorboat R’s for me. I learned tonight it’s actually called an alveolar tap or trill.
Thanks to Miriam for helping me to decide Spaghetti’s gender — female. Tonight’s cartoon clinches it.
And thanks to George for putting a few Spaghetti cartoons in the Active Seniors Inc online newsletter this month. That would make 700+ more people checking out Spaghetti. (And thanks bunches, George, for all the help getting the new vanity and toilet for us, too!)
And thanks to Lisa & Jerry for a great celebratory meal last night. It was great to see you both.
Until mañana + 1 . . .
Humor abounds.

“No rulers were harmed during the making of this cartoon.”
