Did You Get There All By Yourself? And, Trot? Trot.

I saw a quote recently in a book.
The book is titled, bluntly, "Thank You."

The quote may not be perfectly reproduced, and there is not very much on the internet about the mysterious quote! But I am sharing it anyway. You think about it.

"Somewhere along the way someone saw something in you, and that's why you are where you are today. Thank them."

--Dan Ward (who could be anyone from a professional rugby player to a "complete lifestyle resort collection.") It is according to my team's research!

The End. Get ready for the Turkey Trot

Only if you like trotting.

In a trotting way,
Alice

Listen To These 5 And You'll Be Good.... And, Lucha Libre? Hey, That's Not Texan...

The Index music festival is going on as we speak. (This would be in Deep Ellum in Dallas, TX). I saw this article by Hunter Hauk which indicates 5 songs you should be looking for.
I'm pretty sure if you just listen to these 5 songs, you'll be good.

During your trip to the State fair for two lonely last days... don't forget to look at the Lucha Libre exhibit in the Women's Museum.
It never hurts to get a little Latin history, no matter what kind.

THE END!
Alice

Why You Need To Know Who Paulina Rubio Is... And Don't Take Away My Fun, Fun, Fun

Paulina Rubio is on the X Factor?
Clueless little me just found this out.
I have been a fan of the Latin songstress, going back to the 90s. I am not sure if her appearances on the show mean she is poised to become a household name? It's all happening too fast.
Since I am not posting a picture of Paulina, here is an old video.

New new new:
For all the Fun you can stand, visit the Fun fun fun fest in Austin, TX, from November 8 until November 10. (Choc-a-bloc full of musical acts).
Your FUN side will not forgive you if you don't go.
THE END.

In a not fun way,
Alice

Do not forget about the State Fair of Texas.

Harry Truman Spoke Words of Wisdom ... Big Tex May Speak If You're Nice

"Imperfect action is better than perfect inaction,"
Harry S. Truman.
Take the quote with you throughout the day.

Then while you're at the State Fair of Texas, enjoy the Life And Times Of Big Tex exhibit at the 'Hall of State.' (History here.)
Big Tex will thank you. He may even walk up and start chatting (use caution!).

Parkland opened yesterday.

Sincerely,
Alice
