JAMIE’S PLACE FOR STUFF

A Stroll Though Memory, Time and Politics With Stops Along The Way

Love Story

We all respond to music, books, plays, conversations that remind us of events. Something will tweak a nerve and for the rest of your life a work, word, or sound will press the emotional button.

One of mine is from an old Disney cartoon “Make Mine Music”. For some reason that has no reason, whenever I hear “Johnnie oh Johnnie” I sort of tear up. Whatever struck a nerve as a child bumped from pillar to post seems to have permanently taken root in my psyche. Either that or I just love happy endings.

So here it is: The story of Alice Blue Bonnet and Johnnie Fedora

May you all have a “true love’ in your life to cherish or remember.

About Me

Retired great grandmother living in the Northwest US. Former radio Public Service Director and National Accounts Manager.

I'm a hair-dishevelled heilan' coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I'm cursed tae ca' ma hame.
Depending on the mood I'm in
I'll raise ma horns on high,
An' if I like the look o' ye
I'll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O' ye, then tak great care,
I'll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o'there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I'll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o' ma een.
