Early this week we took delivery of this kid while waiting for their siblings to be trapped. They can be a bit afraid but also very loud when they want something. At first I thought they wanted to be Thurston Howell because they couldn be so loud. But it turns out they are actually Lovey Howell.

KITTY.

BTW, do you know there are a lot of people now that have never heard of Gilligan's Island? Can you believe that shit?

Very much so. We have been rewatching a lot of old TV series. Even the less than great ones. But we have absolutely zero intentions of watching even key episodes of Gilligan's Island. It offers almost no reason to go back to it.

I watched that show every weekend when they aired it back in the 80s. Pretty much every kid did. Was it stupid? Yep. Didn't care. I loved Gilligan's Island!

I too watched it on an almost daily level in the 80s. It was great. Then.
