Go Retire Psychiatrist

The Amaryllis Trio in the living room are growing pretty fast, comparing them to a couple of weeks ago.

Other upcoming holiday news is that Sena ordered a Svengoolie holiday sweater for me. I’m not sure it qualifies as an ugly sweater. I hope it fits.

That reminds me that the upcoming Svengoolie film this Saturday is “Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.” That’s another kind of trio. They also meet other monsters, including the Wolf Man and Dracula.

This movie, released in 1948, has also been shown on Turner Classic Movies (TCM). You don’t need to try to puzzle that one out. Go to the TCM web site and read what they say about the film. Hint: it’s definitely not satire.

We’ve never seen this one. Sena thought Abbott and Costello were a lot like the 3 Stooges, but I spoke up in support of the pair of comedians. The 3 Stooges were slapstick guys, but I often think of the Who’s on First routine by Abbott and Costello.
