I lived at Camp Curry and worked at the Ahwahnee Hotel from 1990 to 1993. Almost 20 years ago and I still think about how fortunate I was to live in Paradise. Thank you for my memories. Janice M

I believe a local farmer puts out stillborn piglets for the eagles.

When I first read One Hundred Years, the book binder said "if you read any book in your life besides the bible, read this." This is Gabo's biography. He lived this. This was his life in "Maconda." Hard to read perhaps, without the who's who in the family tree of One Hundred Years, but the fir...

Bless you child. Sing for the angels. Dear Whitney.

@BearyHairy Thank you for your comments. Not many know that we partially owe our independence from Great Britain due to the $200 million that France spent on our independence mainly bankrupcting the government of France under the rule of King Louis XVI. Check out Lafayette on wiki. He was bu...

Oh short Bogie! I have Ingrid Bergman's bio, which has a picture of Bogie with huge blocks on his feet so he could be taller than Bergman. Still, one of the greatest love stories ever.

OMG, I've watched this a hundred times and I still cry. So beautiful!

@Marengo2534 Your King Henry 8 was a murderous monster who wiped out the Catholic monasteries in the name of God. He murdered two of his wives in the name of God. Your King was not one of God. Yes, I loved Pope John Paul 2 with all my heart. But you have to own up to your history.

Jenny Tomason, who played the long suffering Ruby, passed away a few weeks ago. So many of the stars have gone, but will long be remembered.

This reminds me of "Lost in Translation" with Bill Murray! Great fun, just like the movie.

And she is so great in Showtime's Shameless as Fiona. Great actress and singer!Q

I cannot understand the attraction of Brandon Coyle as John Bates who "Anna" finds irresistible. Coyle is only 48 years old! He looks over 60! His fat flabby face leaves me cold. Bad casting IMO! Other than that I love the show.

The movie Hillary and Jackie and the book by her siblings barely touches on her bizarre behavior before she was diagnosed with MS at the age of 28.

Jackie was one of a kind. I would someday like to put roses on her grave. She has touched my heart.

I wonder if Martin knows about the Elephant Sanctuary here in Hohenwald, Tennessee. The ES has a wonderful website, check it out!

George Sanders was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, hence his knowledge of the language. He was madly in love with Zsa Zsa Gabor, he later married Zsa Zsa's sister Magda.

I am well aware of his suicide note, but having suffered several strokes and his health deteriorating, I can understand his...

Lange comes across as a kook, but she is a brilliant actress. Check out her performance in the movie "Normal" in which she plays a long married wife and discovers her husband, played by Tom Wilkinson, is going through transgender reassignment with hormone therapy. Both actors are masters in the...

When I watched the season finale of Tara, when Tara, her husband and children were dancing to this song, I was wondering what the song was. Beautiful. Thanks for posting.

Barrymore was the stage name of the Blythe acting family. Ethel, John and Lionel Blythe were born to a British actor Maurice Blythe and his wife Georgiana. Louisa Drew, their grandmother, had a theater in Philadelphia, and was the mainstay of the family for many years. Maurice was a scroundrel...

I don't think most folks know that she was a fabulous singer. Check her out in the 1930s version of Showboat. A beautiful and talented woman.

What did you do Chris, get your wrinkled shirt off the floor and then put it on! I love you Ronnie Walken. We come from the same 'hood in Astoria and I wish I could see you again. Great chicken by the way! Love and kisses. Janice Mahon

@989razzle Tomorrow is the Winter Solstice and the days will be getting longer with more sun light, a few minutes each day. I am sure this has to do with the Decorah female laying her eggs in late February. Oh what do I know! I just want to live long enough to see another successful clutch a...

Hey Mick, I'm having mind freeze! Where is this nest or did you tell me already? Thanks! Looks like Dad is chawing down!

@MadeleineStanton Why sad ending? Do tell!

Oh Minnie, you are one silly girl! Happy to see you so full of fun!

The Berry Brothers, awesome! Eleanor Powell was the greatest tap dancer on the planet! Even better than Astaire! Powell was so fresh faced and beautiful, no platinum hair and heavy makeup for her! Thanks for posting. Janice M

Eleanor Powell was the greatest tap dancer ever in the movies. Gracie got her start in vaudeville so I can see why she is so great at dancing. Thanks for posting, you made my day! Janice M

Harbingers, love that word, of things to come! A few merry months of winter, then Mom and Dad get frisky and lo and behold, eagle eggs! Thanks Mick, I really love watching your videos.

Wow, they had better lighten the load, the nest is getting too small for the both of them.

These two were hilarious today! Mom stood her ground with Dad, but Dad got the last word. Thanks Mick, I needed a good laugh today! Janice

@sally525 Yes, the man is definitively sexy! Wonder if he knows it? Clunes obviously lost a lot of weight before he filmed the last season of Doc Martin. A sexy dude, that's for sure!

Nice fly-by for sure! We are so used to them just sitting around in the nest or in the Y branch that it is kind of a jolt to see them circling around. Thanks Mick.

Brrr. It looks so cold there. I see the horses are going back into their warm barn. Thanks for posting. Janice

@DazedConfused1969 No, never did. Never went to CBGB either, although the Ramones are my favorite rock band. We Queens Kids have to stick together. Thanks for asking. Janice M

I used to race home from college to watch Soupy. He got into trouble in one show when he asked the "kiddies" to go into their parents' wallets and send him those green pieces of paper. Youtube has many of his skits, the funniest one was when there was a nude stripper behind the door. I love yo...

@Soulisscool I am old enough to remember James Dean's death, I was 12. He was 24. He might have been involved with Pier Angeli, but he was bi-sexual and more in love with himself.

I worked at the Ahwahnee Hotel in the late 1980s through 1993. I remember this suite on the second floor. There were three rooms at the end of the second floor, you could rent either bedroom off the main room, which held a fireplace.

Eleanor Roosevelt's maiden name was Roosevelt. She married her fourth cousin, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, hence her married name Eleanor Roosevelt Roosevelt.

My Dad worked for Mattel Toy Company in the early 60s. At that time, Zsa Zsa was married to the president of Mattel. Dad met her at a company party and told me how wonderful she was. And she is still wonderful!

According to news reports, Pope John Two's remains were only partially enbalmed, that his remains were to remain uncorrupt until after his beaitification. I guess that is when he achieved sainthood, his blood and body would be be distributed to several churches.

Ugga wigga wigwam! Great Broadway dancers! And how they moved from side to side, isn't easy to do! Thank you J.M. Barrie, and especially thanks to Mary Martin and the great Cyril Ritchard for his portrayal of Mr. Darling and of Captain Hook. I am glad to have been alive when this was first ...

Cyril Richard excellent as Captain Hook!

@katesingactdance Maude Adams, the great British actress, first played the role of Peter Pan in 1905. Thereafter, the role was always played by a female. Mary Martin was a huge Broadway star. She played Maria von Trapp in the Sound of Music on Broadway. I think she was wonderful in the role...

Mary Martin's daughter Heather Halliday played the part of the maid, Liza. A little bit of movie trivia. I saw this for the first time and I still get chills watching it.

These two clowns are hilarious! I saw the big poop shot smudge on the lens, and I thought to myself, oh no! Then I saw the date you posted this, long before the new cams were set up. I gotta pay attention Ms. Mick!
