The drinking of orange juice is hardly news, but that won’t stop me from putting my nine cents into the conversation.

And the Oscar goes to…
What do Charlton Heston, Kevin Bacon, Tom Cruise, Ryan Rosling, Christopher Reeve and Kevin Sorbo all have in common? Handsome, recognized actors, yes, but what else? Here’s a hint… Oscar winners Maximilian Schell in 1961 and Lee Marvin in 1965 share this similarity… Still guessing? Okay, last BIG clue, picture Kirk Douglas, Patrick Swayze, Richard Burton, Anthony Quinn, Warren Beattie, Robert Redford and most certainly Paul Newman. See them? Yes, they all have blue eyes, and for a leading man, apparently, this is a must have feature.
Love Words
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Life is a flower of which love is the honey.
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Love is all we have, the only way that each can help the other.
