Cleary v. Blume

No more Elliot… Ho hum. Now I’ll have to wait a whole two months to buy the American Idol Encores on CD or for the American Idol Tour later in the year while wearing my American Idol t-shirt and eating an American Idol American Pie.

How about that Simon and his attitude who always says “LET ME FINISH!” HAHAHAHAHA!! HA.

Beverly Cleary, of Ramona Quimby fame, gave an interview on NPR back in April - here she reflects on her life’s work influencing and entertaining millions of children for over 50 years.

I was excited to hear about the interview, because I loved “Superfudge” — then I realized that was a Judy Blume book and became embarrassed.

Once I saw an old man in the street playing the spoons and gave it a try in my parent’s kitchen — my performance was severely lacking. I was nearly kicked out of my family for such a horrendous non-display of talent. But that’s because I didn’t read this guide on how to play the spoons.

:divbar:

Superman is coming! More trailers.
