Harry Potter, via author J.K. Rowling, recently had a "confrontation" with heightened airport security…and Harry won. Hmm. Rowling was in New York for an event during August and here’s what she says of the travel incident: The heightened security restrictions on the airlines in August made the journey back from New York interesting, as I refused [...] Yesterday Missyisms, this blog that is, turned one year old! Our first blogiversary! My first ever post was about the wonderful Foyle’s War. That night last year, PBS in the U.S. ran the first episode of season 3 of Foyle’s War. I’ve just looked at FoylesWar.com and they’ve got a notice that Foyle’s War seasons 4 [...]

Americans, and many others, will recognize this famous picture that was taken just minutes before Pres. Kennedy was assassinated. That’s Mrs. Connally in front of Jackie Kennedy. Like Mrs. Kennedy, Nellie Connally was not [...] Life with Reggie can be difficult (check out the Pets category in the right column for more on this).
