It's Friday and you know what that means....time for the Friday Five. This week with a Coloconnect Twist. As always, answer any 5 or go nutcracker wild and answer them all. Ready....here we go...

1-What is on top of your fridge?

Wooden hen paper towel holder,assorted collectable Coke Tins, Coke Straw Dispenser,Coke Polar Bear salt and pepper shakers, 2 antique milk glass dishes.

2-Last thing you bought for someone else?

Stuffed bears for Trooper Junior, Angel and Little Trooper, silver antique Trifari bracelet for Princess and a box of donuts for Super Trooper. And yes, the Rat Pack got Valentine's Day treats.

3-Think of a theme song to go along with your blog title.

INSIDE THE FLAME-I'm On Fire by Bruce Springsteen

4-Something you've always wanted to say in a crowd?

LIVE....FROM NEW YORK....IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!

5-Best Valentine's Day ever?

1985. My son, The Baby was born 5 days earlier so that was a good one.

6-Last thing you researched online?

American and English pottery trademarks to try and date some of my collection.

7-What is "tutti" and why is it "frutti"?

Don't know. Ask Little Richard.

8-While driving, are you a horn blower?

Oh heck yes! That's what it's there for.....blow that sucker! Here is a suggestion, the next time you get in your car, blow your horn once and say, "This one is for ^Belle^".(Please report back with your horn blowing story)

9-Something you gave away, but wish you hadn't?

Well, sometime back, I purged my closets and inadvertently included a purse that had "something" very personal (that requires batteries) inside. I know what you are thinking. Why in the world was it in a purse? I am certain that question was asked several times by the employees sorting through my donations.

10- If you were getting married, would you sign a prenup?

IF....and believe me folks, that is a big IF, 'cause on my things to do before I die list....that one isn't there, but IF I were, sure I would sign one. Right after he did.

11-How many letters are in your last name?

6

12-Do you have photos of your pet/s on display in your home?

Yes. I have a big collage frame with pictures of the Rat Pack in the living room. Have a 5 by 7 in the dining room of my sweet little man Bo with his leash and collars around it, and another photo on Bo on my night stand. It is the last thing I see at night and the first thing I see in the morning.

13-Best bargain you have found lately?

I purchased a Vintage lot of jewelry from an estate on ebay. When I received it I was amazed to discover that among the contents was a beautiful Miriam Haskell red and white beaded bracelet from around the early to mid 50's. Haskell is very collectible and I was thrilled!

14-Favorite classic TV show?

A tie with I Love Lucy and The Andy Griffith Show.

15-A movie you almost know by heart?

Bridges Of Madison County, Smokey and The Bandit, Heartbreak Ridge and Coal Miner's Daughter.

COLO TWIST

16-I like Colo because....

There are many reasons, but at the top of the list is that she has such a caring, compassionate and sweet nature. I can't tell you the number of times, in the very early morning hours when most of you are sleeping, we are bouncing around the stream. Before signing off she will always say, "goodnight". And, when she senses you are going through a tough time, she signs off with, "Sleep with the angels". That ALWAYS makes me smile.

17-Colo makes me.....

Inspired.

18-Colo has.....

She has a great sense of humor.

19-Colo is.....

She is a brave and strong woman and a brilliant writer. She writes with such clarity and it always flows smoothly from one word to the other.

20-My personal message to Colo is....

Thanks for your friendship and for teaching by example about "peeling onions".

Later Ya'll...^Belle^

This blog will be closed until after Valentine's Day. If anyone needs me, I'll be hanging out with Scratch,Six and BigChris (BC). On my agenda is popping any and all balloons related to V-Day,ripping roses from the stems and poking holes in candy to see what kind they are. All cutie patootie stuffed animals with red ribbons and bows, hearts, flowers or any other such nonsense will be blown to kingdom come with my rocket launcher! Have a happy %^&*$#@ day!

Today is "D" Day. "D"...being Decision Day. Make it or break it. As things stand right now, it looks broke with a capital B to me! In the words of a Keith Whitley song, "You say it best, when you say nothing at all".

Here is a dose of humor, just right for a Monday.

This may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I LOVE the Blues! When you consider all the great Blues singers, Son House, John Lee Hooker, Ruth Brown, Big Maybelle, the one and only B B King has to be at the top of the list.

Let me have it....Thumbs up...or Thumbs down..
