Answer: Actually, I think it would be having an exceptionally good Sunday at church. We were really energized and had some good fellowship as well as a good worship time.

Feel free to leave your answer in the comment.

I’m going to make this post an open trackback post, so you can trackback any non-spammy thing you like:

It’s time for the last installment of my ”Dragnet Marathon” as I present a classic episode of Dragnet for people to enjoy while I’m out of state in the Portland area. Next week, it’s back to normal blogging.

The plot of this episode features Joe Friday undercover. An ex-con places an ad about being willing to do anything for money and calls Friday and Gannon when a response sounds like an offer to commit murder.

It’s now time for the fourth day of my vacation “Dragnet Marathon” as I present a classic episode of Dragnet for people to enjoy while I’m out of state in the Portland area.

This episode was notable for a number of reasons. In this episode, Joe Friday and Bill Gannon investigate a fellow officer on charges of Armed Robbery. The young office is played by Kent McCord whose career was boosted by this role. McCord would on to co-star in another Jack Webb TV hit, Adam-12. The show was also noted for Joe Friday’s sensational talk on what it meant to be Cop.  Friday’s statement would be entered into the congressional record and spread throughout the country.

It’s now time for the third day of my vacation “Dragnet Marathon” as I present a classic treat while I’m away. 

We turn today to the 1960s version which most people are familar with. This marked Dragnet’s return to the air after an 8 year haitus. The “Blue Boy” episode was among the most memorable in either of the show’s two runs. Enjoy!

Welcome to the second day of my vacation Dragnet marathon. I won’t be back until August 4th, but in the meantime I’m giving you some quality entertainment, you won’t get on TV today. This is our second trip into the 1950s. Tomorrow, will switch gears to the better known 1960s version.

Friday is known as a “stiff” guy. Well, this is one of his more emotional episodes by far as he’s hit closest to home by crime.

Welcome to the first day of my vacation Dragnet marathon. I won’t be back until August 4th, but in the meantime I’m giving you some quality entertainment, you won’t get on TV today.For those of you who’ve only seen the 1960s Dragnet, you’re in for a treat. The 1950s version was a pioneering police drama that set an example for all future police drams.

This episode is one of the best of the 1950s TV series, featuring one of Dragnet’s most dangerous criminals. Catching him is easy, keeping him behind bars it the big challenge.

Citizen, activist, and patriot Charlton Heston died 2 1/2 months before the Heller decision yesterday. Without his tireless efforts against the gun-grabbing Clinton Administration, there would have been no Alito, and no Roberts, no majority standing for the rights of citizens. He marched for Civil Rights, and his last great battle was for the rights of all Americans. Rest in Peace.

Today’s Karate Kid quote of the Day from IMDB:

Miyagi: Walk on road, hm? Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later
[makes squish gesture]
Miyagi: get squish just like grape. Here, karate, same thing. Either you karate do “yes” or karate do “no.” You karate do “guess so,”
[makes squish gesture]

While Miyagi meant this to apply to Karate, perhaps to applies to politics as well. So, GOP, “You consevatism do “guess so” Squish, just like grape.”
