We have progressed. Over the years when I wanted to see this Video I had to scramble through names like: blaze, eddie blaze, Ed McK wears a blazer...et al...on you tube...



Today I went to you tube, typed in... "Puckett Brothers"... & the video appeared!

  • Looks like we no longer need a "MC" to introduce us!
MC stands for "Master of Ceremony" my Dad used to be great at being a Master of Ceremony...


  • I believe he was the first person to use the word "howsomever"........

Even More Goats! The Fainting Goat...



A myotonic goat, otherwise known as the fainting goat, is a domestic goat whose muscles freeze for roughly 10 seconds when the goat feels panic. Though painless, this generally results in the animal collapsing on its side. The characteristic is caused by a hereditary genetic disorder called myotonia congenita. When startled, younger goats will stiffen and fall over. Older goats learn to spread their legs or lean against something when startled, and often they continue to run about in an awkward, stiff-legged shuffle.

More Goats! Goats on a Slinky!



You'll have to provide your own sound effects....

Tell all the Priests' you know that it is a really neat thing at Christenings to hold the Christened one up for the people to see.



I have been to Church for Christenings twice since November & the Priest held up Blair in November but the Priest did not hold up Rory yesterday. Maybe the Priest looked at Rory & thought, "I can't lift him!"

  • Rory is six months younger than Blair
The attending people should also applaud at the end of the ceremony...Just my 2 cents.

uh-oh!



                                                          Two injured Grand-kids


  • Liam(age 9) a Hockey player, has suffered a concussion and Amanda (age 7) a Soccer player, has sprained her ankle.
  • Liam was wearing a helmet. He had bad headaches. Went to the Doc and was told he cannot watch TV, read, play games, shop, or talk to his Uncle Pea. He also had to miss a week of school. The Doc said he has to treat the concussion ( brain injury) like a broken bone. It has to be immobilized. 
Amanda had X-rays. Her ankle was immobilized, wrapped, iced and she was also told that she cold not talk to her Grandpop 'cause he was a complainer about ankle injuries...

Why I could never have Piloted a Plane

8 year old Eddie's question about The Ed Sullivan Beatle show got me to thinking...

             
                                               what are my earliest childhood Memories???

  • 1950 (I was 4) Timmy was born (or was it Eddie?) & we could not go in the Hospital. Dad left Alyce in charge & we saw Mother from the street as she waved to us from the 4th floor window. Michael (or was it Timmy?)  did not get to see her because he had fallen through the street grate and was trapped.



  • September 1951 (I was 5) and I remember running the Nuns ragged as I ran through St Ambrose on my 1st day of 1st grade. They couldn't catch me as I ran from the first floor to the second floor, where I hid in the "cloak room"...then back to the first floor.
  • The other kids were going Nuts!
  • Finally, a Nun yelled out, "we are calling your Mother!" and I gave myself up.Mother came & got me. We walked home, crossing the Boulevard at "D" street (where there was no light) and not "C" street...Mother did not want to have to explain to Joe the Park Guard.                                  

  • June 1953 (I had just turned 8) BROKE...er..."hurt" my ankle playing Box Ball when I chased a grounder hit by Anthony Schiambi & just half my foot made it over the curb.
I turned 9 in 1955, the year Eddie was born. Eddie was born in May, same month as me and...
  • Grand mom Falato was visiting our next door neighbors in July while Michael & I were burning ants on the sidewalk with a magnifying glass in the HOT sun when Grand mom missed the railing & tumbled down 13 steps & fell smack dab on my 72 pound back! Causing me to run rampant around "D" street as I attempted to catch my breath while Michael couldn't stop laughing!
  • In 1956 I remember Dad & Alyce arriving home in a Taxi with our first TV.
I also remember in 1956 (I was now 11)  that Adlai Stevenson (a Democrat) was running agains Ike (a Republican) for President. That's when I told Dad & Mother..."I think I am a Republican"

  • I could go on...

Kareem looms Large in Los Angeles...

Black Out on Blossom Hill!



We have been without electricity since Tues night! Reading by lantern, eating crackers & water. Luckily, I was able to Gerry-rig a portable generator (w/ some help from Joe White) to give us some power. PP&L says it could last for 3 more days! And another Storm due this weekend!!!!@#$%!!
"We don't have ladders long enough to reach Blossom Hill, let 'em wait 'til the Thaw..."

"I read the news today, oh boy!"


And it said that the average yearly snowfall in Lancaster is 25 inches. The news went on to say that as of Feb 04 we have had 48 inches and the weather report is predicting Ice & Snow tonight! Oh yea, and more snow due this weekend! The good News is that Spring is just 45 days from today...

                   
About a lucky man who made the grade;
And though the news was rather sad,
Well, I just had to laugh—
I saw the photograph . . .

He blew his mind out in a car;
He didn't notice that the lights had changed.
A crowd of people stood and stared;
They'd seen his face before;
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords.

I saw a film today, oh boy;
The English Army had just won the war.
A crowd of people turned away;
But I just had to look,
Having read the book.
I'd love to turn you on . . .

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head;
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup;
And looking up, I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat,
Made the bus in seconds flat;
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke;
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream . . .

I read the news today, oh boy;
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire;
And though the holes were rather small,
They had to count them all.
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on . . .
                                                             

Partying Seahawks fans wait for green light before spilling into the street to celebrate...



Can you imagine this happening in Philadelphia? Waiting for the Green Light!!
