I watched "The Wizard of Oz" last night. I guess it's the umpteenth time I have watched it, but it's just such a classic. Who can resist? So many phrases and quotes come from that movie:
"Munchkins"
"Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas any more."
"Follow the Yellow Brick Road."
"Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!"
"A horse of a different color"
"I'm melting!"
"The wicked witch is dead!"
"There's no place like home."
Even though I love that movie, I remember seeing a tee shirt that made me laugh. Here is what was on the shirt:
"Aunt Em,
Hate you, hate Kansas, took the dog.
Dorothy"

A dumb Duene story: I just got a new kitchen timer, a small digital one. When I took it out of the box, it looked like it said "8888" on the display, and I couldn't set it. After fussing with it for a while, it dawned on me that the display was covered with thin plastic to protect it. The plastic was printed with "9959".

I was raised on 'Wizard of Oz' and 'Meet Me in St Louis' reruns. Guess who I'm named after?
