MY FAVORITE T.V. SIT-COM & MORE
By OLIVENE GODFREY
The excellent animated T.V. series, "King of the Hill", will
broadcast its 200th episode in May on Fox, according to Steve Sailer, who has written on the Internet an interesting article about the creator of the show, Mike Judge.
Sailer writes of King of the Hill, "...Once King of the Hill
matured. the insightful and unusual quality of the low-key
humor became evident, it now must rank among the finest
sit-com in T.V. history." And I agree with that. Sailer also writes that Hank Hill, hero of the King of the Hill
exemplifies the traditional American male virtues in an
age that holds them in contempt.
After I had watched a few episodes of the series, I realized
that the cartoon characters had become more real to me than the human stars of other shows. It is also refreshing to note that this series is not "politically correct".If you haven't seen the show, check your local T.V. listings, and tune in.
I think you will like it.

As I write this, we are having an early spring day with warm temps and a few April showers. Since son Barry worked long hours last week, he opted to get take-out dinners today from the
Village Cafeteria in Chatsworth. Since this first day of Daylight Savings Time has our bodies not yet adjusting to it, our meal was actually a brunch. I don't know when we will eat again.
We have just had a cold snap and now we're having warm temps but we know not to get too used to it yet. We still have
the Easter cold snap, Dogwood Winter and Blackberry Winter ahead of us and some nameless cooler weather. It is usually the
middle of May here in northwest Georgia before we can put away the winter clothes for the summer coming up.
When I purchased a poinsettia last December,I was hoping it would stay healthy and bloom until spring and that has
happened. The plant is still sitting on the floor in front
of the large picture window in the den and is still in full
bloom and very pretty. Some of the leaves have fallen off the plant, but it still looks healthy. I think its in the location that was perfect for it. Barry pours a small five ounce Dixie
cup of water in the soil every day and no more. The plant gets a short period of afternoon sun and we are wondering how long the plant will last now.
See you next time.
