Welcome to Litsy!

I vaguely remember the repeats of 'Happy Days' but I was much more interested in spin-off 'Mork & Mindy' (shazbot!) in which the much-missed Robin Williams was absolutely hilarious. I digress, so anyway this is the autobiography of Henry Winkler, best known as 'The Fonz' (Ayyy) in Happy Days.

Winkler has been in a lot more than just 'Happy Days', not things that I have tended to watch in the main but I remember him in 'Scream'. (Continued)

When I‘m having a bad day, nothing cheers me up more than I Love Lucy. Laughter is the best medicine! (This also happens to be my favorite episode, L.A. At Last! with the gorgeous William Holden 😍)

On my darkest days,
Lucy is balm for my soul.
I laugh through the tears.

Jessica is in Arizona cheering on the foster son of friends when murder happens. Of course it does—she attracts murder wherever she goes! The darker side of baseball is revealed, with sex, drugs, and gambling, not to mention prejudice and power purchased by wealth. Good escape reading. My April choice for #ThematicCozies

1. Overall, rather anxious and disregulated. Having a hard time focusing on much at all. But the sun is shining, so that's something.

2. Binge watching Taskmaster Series on YouTube. There is very little that makes me cry tears of joyous laughter as readily as that.

My favorite Peter David novel. May his memory be a blessing.

Fun and quick read about the guys who made watching arguments entertaining. 👍🏼 I always enjoyed “Siskel & Ebert” — they were smart, sharp and opinionated. In this bio Siskel comes across as a jerk, though. 👎🏼 The “pranks” he played on Ebert behind the scenes weren‘t very funny — it sounds more like bullying to me. 😖 Thanks to @JoeMo and #AuldLangSpine for putting this one on my radar!

Great Star Trek read about how they made the aliens and artifacts for the shows! The last part tells you how to make your own aliens and artifacts!

Early 2025 was truly my own my own winter of discontent (second drumpf term, having to move in the middle of Feb, covid for the second time etc etc) Hornby's novel about a winner of a beauty queen pageant in a British village who proceeded to revolutionize tv has so far been one of my favorite reads of the year. Sophie Straw is absolutely terrific & the cast who surround her are in turns interesting & infuriating. This books has MUCH to say (CONT)
