A Big Finders Fee For Dorothy’s Red Slippers
We’re coming up on the 10 year anniversary of the theft of a pair of ruby red slippers that Judy Garland wore in “The Wizard of Oz”. They were on display at a museum in her hometown at Grand Rapids, Minnesota when they were stolen.

New Phrase? Lumbersexual
The phrase lumbersexual got my attention. I’d never heard it before. Metrosexual has been around a while, but LUMBER sexual. I discovered it as the social media sites were talking about the grown up Alfalfa from the 1994 movie “The Little Rascals” posted his latest pics. That got folks taking and saying he was a lumbersexual. The urban dictionary says it means: A Metro-sexual who has the need to hold on to some outdoor based rugged-ness, thus opting to keep a finely trimmed beard. Here’s the actor, Bug Hall, today.
Sheila Says: I guess from that definition, he IS a lumbersexual. What do you think?

Apparently the egg whites take the red out and help ease the sting and burn.
