"flummoxed" - Haven't heard that in years.
\
Now we have "Smart TVs" - So do we know if we must be smart to use them, or are they smart. They can do more than the old TV sets, but do require some digging around. I often watch You Tube stuff on my TV. Have also watched clips I have on Flash Drives. Older TV shows can also be found (My son does that).

Kathamarie, my daughter just left - we had a packed 3 days - On Monday we drove up to Conroe to the DPS office and got my ID card - disappointing - now they take and destroy your old license - I had been keeping them and would have liked to have in my collection my last license but it was not to be...
Dinner last night at Paul and Sally's, my son and daughter-in-law - after, we saw on TV a hilarious movie with of all people Kirk Russell playing Santa -vaguely remember seeing it a few years back and at the end in comes Mrs. Claus who was of course Goldie Hawn - for the life of me today I cannot remember the name of the movie
You two computer geeks - just trying to figure out how to watch TV these days almost requires someone who knows there way around a computer... I was fine, not as good as either of you but able, till a couple of years ago when the changes came so fast that I just finally threw up my hands and said enough. Limping along so far but yes, changes in TV have me flummoxed. My daughter made it stop and now I don't know what she did to stop the voice over describing every detail in a movie.
Talk about Bing Crosby - on Tuesday night we watched White Christmas - finally after all these years to me it came off as dated and most of the dance numbers I found boring - first in theaters in 1954 so it has had a good run. Katha did share a tidbit that Bing was 49 years old when he made White Christmas and she did remark on how soothing his voice which back then we thought singers called crooners were the 'only' measure of a big time successful singer where as today there are a couple but by and large a different sound is popular.
Your sharing your favorite Christmas music reminded me of mine that years go by now and I don't hear it - a Hymn that used to be sung at the end of Midnight Mass but now a different more triumphant sounding Hymn is sung - but I loved Gesu Bambino

December 18th already. We're getting close to the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Lots of ancient myths and stories about that day. I may post my favorite on. the 21st.
For today, I must comment on the Hawaiian Christmas song,
MeleKalikimaka, which was talked about in SS yesterday.
It's my favorite of all the holiday novelty songs. It always puts a smile on my face. So for OLM, Phyllis, and everyone else who likes it, here's Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters!

Yes, Phyllis, yes I can! When I was in the 4th grade my father was scheduled to transfer to a job in Hawaii. He started preparing us by teaching us about the culture. I shared about our pending move at school. My teacher thought I was lying, so she challenged me to do the hula, thinking she'd teach me a lesson. I went home and asked my father to buy me a record of Hawaiian music. I studied the hulas in movies and books we had, borrowed one of my younger sisters grass skirt/hula outfits my dad had brought them home from one of his trips out there and performed a hula for my class. Mrs Speakerman never tried "putting me in my place" again. 🤣
