Thursday's Thoughts
The woman reclining in the boat is Kay Laurell. She was a Vaudeville performer and actor of the silent film era. Months after this picture was made she would be dead of what was first reported as pneumonia. We now know she died in childbirth.
- The power went out this afternoon as I started getting supper ready to cook.
- Had to go get takeout.
- Heartbreaking.
- How do you survive power outage in Texas heat? Go outside and play in the sprinkler.
- Saw a Marine at dinner tonight and as usual picked up his tab without letting him know who took care of it. Interestingly, I could tell from the conversation I overheard the woman he was with was a date and not a spouse and she was obviously impressed.
- You're welcome staff sergeant.

I don't have any knowledge of the Ziegfeld Follies, but the story was told during my growing up years, that my grandmother (b. 1907) played piano/organ in the local moving picture house, before the advent of talkies.
