Definition of irony: the word “devil“ on Easter. 🤣
250 years ago today, the battle of Lexington and Concord occurred. Wonder what our forefathers would think now? My favorite line from JOHNNY TREMAIN, winner of the 1944 Newbery Medal and about the outbreak of said battle, is from James Otis as he's questioning all of the patriots as to why they were fighting: “We give all we have, lives, property, safety, skill...we fight, we die, for a simple thing. Only that a man can stand up.” #resist ✊🏻💙✊🏻
Words of advice from Mr. Darwin. Luckily we can still do these things in this country. For now. 🤞🏻 #carpediem

From THE MAN IN THE BROWN SUIT by Agatha Christie:
“Nadina, the Russian dancer who had taken Paris by storm, swayed to the sound of the applause, bowed and bowed again.“

My favorite Twilight Zone episode. “My name is Talking Tina. And I don't think I like you.“ 😱

Only 45/100 for this retired English teacher. 😱 Thanks to all of you who played, I am reprioritizing my TBR! Favorites today are above; hard to limit to just three.
What got me most about this list was how to rectify things like WAR & PEACE, CHARLOTTE'S WEB, 50 SHADES OF GREY, and THE TWILIGHT SERIES being on the SAME list! #whatthe 🤣
Here's the link again if you'd like to play: https://shorturl.at/SVh6e
Wow! I've gone over 200,000 Litsy points! My life has only become sweeter since finding this place and all of you wonderful Littens! @LitsyEvents

A car accident that goes nowhere. Exploding oranges meant to be planted “in strategic spots“ at the Kennedy Space Center. 😳 Horrible house hosts at an orange grove farm. A tour-travelogue-like press release of the space center and museum. Tear gas in Nancy and her friend's faces at a photo-op. Ned & Nancy almost drowning in a vat of boiling water. Way. Too. Much. Going. On. And too over-the-top for me. On to book 19!

@Eggs (thanks for the tag! 😍)
1. I still can cry over BREAKING THE CHAIN: THE GUARD DOG STORY: a comic book by Patrick McDonnell, the creator of MUTTS. So poignant!
2. The tagged: THE MYSTERIES OF UDOLPHO. #ugh I couldn't even get through this one with the #hashtagbrigade! That's really saying something! 🤣

One day late due to Litsy posting problems yesterday. 😭
1. Seeing an albino peacock at our local nursery. 🦚
2. Planting our new rose bush. 🥀
3. Pip the Destructor. She was bored and wanted her bag of treats. 🤣🐾🤣
4. Made plan reservations to annoy @TheLudicReader with my presence this summer! ♥️🇨🇦🤍
5. My loves. Where would I be without them. 💙🩵💙

Happy 100th, Gatsby. Wish you had lived long enough to see it. You, too, FSF.
The most moving and beloved book I ever had the privilege to teach. To have one of my rough-and-gruff-acting-like-tom-buchanan juniors cry at the end of the book for the loss of Gatsby and the innocence of Nick is the magnum opus of my career. 💚💙💚 (#greenlightbay)
#tlt #threelistthursday
Well, I hit the 2000s and pretty much stopped going to movies. 🤣 Only 12/116 on this one! I decided to list three movies that I can't believe I haven't seen and would like to:
1. GRAVITY
2. BARBIE 😱
3. THE IMITATION GAME
