Monday Musings ...
LOOKING BACK ... all the way back to November 24, 2003, when “Squiggles” existed as an e-mailed dispatch ... with fifty-one readers in fifteen states, according to a note at the top of the printout.
Ah, those were the days! As an incentive for those readers to keep the “conversation” going, there as a standing offer of a magical, mystical, mythical GOLD STAR which could be claimed by first responders.
And the winners back then? Well, let’s see ... “First to respond to last week’s installment, no doubt about it, was Mia (OH), who was interested in getting my autograph on her copy of “Chance of Rain” (Oh! Remember that? My first collection!) ... then Doris L. (OH), who had visions of Andy Rooney as she read “If Elected” (about the practice of curmudgeonry, you may recall) ... and then there was lilting, lyrical Loree (KS), who identifies with being mistaken for someone else, Carol Burnett, for example ... not quite in the league with Marilyn Monroe, she says, but better than being mistaken for Archie Bunker’s wife.”

TODAY’S QUOTE: “Oh, I do my share of looking back. Problem is, you bump into so many things while doing it.” - Professor Squigglee
