Day 771: Wax lips and cappuccino

Susan loves holidays and always sends the members of Penelope a special treat to spur laughter.  For Valentine's Day, a box of wax red lips arrived.  We know how much she misses her friends and our Sunday morning meetings.  We got some hysterical shots that she will surely enjoy.

Fifty years ago tonight, the Beatles first appeared on the Ed Sullivan show.  I fell in love with them that night, just like millions of young girls around the world.  In 1965 or 1966, our sorority took a  trip to Toronto for their concert.  We never heard a single word of the lyrics or a note of music because of all the screaming.  In fact, it was difficult to see them because we had seats in the very top of the auditorium.  After the concert, we were walking down a long corridor when someone screamed, "there they are!"  and a crush of crazed girls rushed through the halls searching for them.  Hysterical girls fainted dead away.   The music is so classic and timeless it is sure to last another hundred years.
