No longer on the river and, again, an empty nester. Back to living on Fleming Island and making some more friends!

"Seinfeld" expert!

Yesterday when Justin and I were at breakfast, about 3/4 of the way through, I realized my earrings were still in my pocket. I had already been talking with the lady next to me, Cindy, and now I was embarrassed that she saw me without them. As I gasped and quickly put them in, he said, "Now I know why people were staring were at you..." Ha, ha! 

Horror of horrors---Justice Scalia has died unexpectedly. This is terrible news for the nation, and in particular for those concerned with the fading attention being paid to the Constitution. Antonin was a strict adherer to the Constitution and was well-respected in the legal world and as a Justice for it. I've had some people suggest that the party of the Presidency doesn't really matter, but when you realize that the sitting President does the nominating for the high court, it matters a good deal. We sure don't want to make a mistake made like the current Chief Justice turned out to be. 
My little nephews were in a basketball tournament today and my sister, Jill, their auntie, sent me this photo of Manny and Gabe. I can't stop chuckling at the look and posture of Manny---so reluctant to have his picture taken!  But it means much to the aunties and relatives not there to see them play!!!  

My friend, Linda M., sent me a link to take a test online regarding "Seinfeld" trivia knowledge. It was a 40 question test and I manged to get 38 correct. What about the two I got wrong? One question I answered incorrectly was asking how many Emmy's the show had won (not really Seinfeld trivia, if you ask me) and the other one, an obvious one, asked which character appeared in every episode. Yes, it was Jerry, but I was thinking of every other character on the show, not even him. Shame on me! Otherwise, I did great on the quiz!
