@PolkaDot Was there ever a doubt?

LOL!
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

This was me at the St. Lucia mud baths!
Except I wasn't flexing....
and I had a top on....
and my hair's longer...
Never mind, this is some other muddy person.

Photo or it didn't happen. Asking for a friend, of course.  8)
Who is the official EllGab Photographer by the way?

@anniem  Not sure exactly.  I think they marketed it to extensively and couldn't sell many.  They seemed to be good mechanically.  I also saw something on TV (History Channel) about one of the plants shutting down, Ford downsizing, etc.  Anyway, I really like the look of that car.  8)

The Edsel was a mess. The designers were stuck on the idea that the grille had to be vertical but in order for it to pull in enough air to cool properly it needed to be ginormous.
The result looked vaguely like a hoo-hoo and what Leave it to Beaver 1950's family wants to be seen tooling around in that?

I’ve been to St Lucia.  Didn’t know about the mud baths. 
Are we having fun yet?

Mud baths and hot springs. Your skin feels amazing afterwords so soft!

I went there for a week in 1990 and stayed in the Couples resort.  Did a lot of SCUBA diving and deep sea fishing. I remember going up to some town in the mountains at night for some type of street festival but that was in my drinking days.  I have foggy memories of that trip.

@Aquarius   Are you thinking about Animal, the drummer?  He's cool. Most of the Muppets were. No matter.  Elmo was an abomination and dumbed-down (my opinion) the message Sesame Street was teaching.  He showed children that it's okay to be an ignorant whiny brat and his vapid nature enforced that in the youth.  He should've staid a background character.  Henson is spinning in his grave.

BTW...I think Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem are one of the best bands.  :D

I adore Sesame Street and The Muppet Show.  :)

Aargh! Of COURSE it's Animal, @ShayP, thank you for correcting my obviously addled comment!

I owe my dear Animal an apology. And I even sold an Animal T-shirt I had from when it first was put (briefly) on the market on Ebay for a really high price! I'd have to look it up, but I think it went for about $80 iirc and it even had a small stain on it from years ago when I wore it happily. Of course now it would be much too small... sigh. +1

It's been quite a weekend, let me just say that. I am now in the early stages of relatives-finally-gone recovery.  ;)

And oh wise @Bart Ell, I was going to ask what you meant as I didn't catch the meaning of your Mandela Effect comment the first time I read it, but now...  LOL.

See what happens when a person posts when they are too tired to be accurate? Not a wise move.  8)

That's a lovely feeling.  There's a sense of peace and calm...at least for me.  I'm glad it's over myself.  ;)  Ride the wave!  ;D

Why didn't I buy Band-Aids 3 months ago when I thought it would be a good idea to actually have some on hand?

Actually Elmo was know as Animal before he finally got his act together and went to therapy. I took a few months at a private clinic in Maine but the Elmo you see today did indeed used to be Animal from the Muppet's. Hollywood and fame can be tough on celebs. ;)
