If not for the courage of the fearless crew

Even as a kid I noticed the giant plot holes. Why did the passengers bring their luggage on a three hour boat tour? An evening gown? Are you kidding? I suppose they scavenged wire and hose from the Minnow, I get that, but how did they cut and plane wood for tables? How did they make bowls? Why did the professor bunk by himself?  Who was the first unlucky girl to get hit on by the lonely horny men — Ginger or Mary Ann? What magic fabric kept their clothes from rips, tears, and general wear, their shoes intact? What happened to the bloody soccer ball? 

Whoops, wrong castaway.

Gilligan’s Island originally aired from 1964 to 1967 and has lived on in reruns since. The show ended after season three with the gang still marooned.

No doubt Gilligan’s Island is an iconic theme song:

"Wilson! WILSOOOON!!!"

Is it wrong that that scene cracks me up every time?

During lockdown, Sunshine and I had to spend a LOT of time together. And she had this cute little pink stuffed unicorn that a good friend had given her before school-was-closed-for-2-weeks-but-actially-FOREVER. His name was Cornelius. But his friends called him Corny.

Corny was a real smartass.

Hope your eyeball procedure went well.

Thanks, Jean. All went fine. I have to do the right eye in two weeks.

If I would behave I wouldn’t be in this position.

I can't watch cop shows like Castle or Bones. What woman cop have you ever seen in real life with long flowing hair, spike heels, full makeup and a $500. outfit? Even the show with the forensic doc wore heels to reconstruct the bones.
