Writing threads my needle
To literally thread a needle is exactly what the words imply as you are pushing a piece of string/thread through the hole or eye of a needle. In the old days, this was the way women sewed hems in garments when not using an actual sewing machine. The words threading a needle also have a symbolic meaning which is skillfully navigating a rough situation or being precise and accurate during a shot while playing pool or billiards. Threading the needle can also mean a specific manner in which you deal with the stresses of life and for me, that method is writing.

On 'General Hospital' Austin might be a Quartermaine
In the good old days of GENERAL HOSPITAL, there was always an interloper or a stray Quartermaine lurking around trying to get their hands on ELQ stock. Recently outsider Valentin Cassadine weaseled his way into becoming the CEO of the family business and now there may be a threat from yet another who has Q blood running in his veins. "Austin" was in the woods in Pawtauk and delivered Maxie's baby and has now made his way to Port Charles and seems very absorbed in the Q's.

Always expect the magic of the fog
I have a personal method of relaxation that has never failed me. The mysteries of the fog thread my needle whether I am actually in the midst of it or reading about it. I imagine I am standing on a cliff and can jump out into the mist that is so thick that it catches me and I am borne on the air itelf. My enchantment with the mist from low lying clouds began with a tale titled FOG MAGIC.

Ginger Grant's various portrayers on ‘Gilligan’s Island’
GILLIGAN'S ISLAND ran on CBS from 1964-1967 and continues to be popular today in syndication. Right now you can also purchase episodes on various streaming services. Fans know that Tina Louise portrayed movie star Ginger Grant in all 98 episodes and is the only surviving member of the original cast of the show. Louise, however, was not the first nor the last actress in the role of the sexy movie star who was actually modeled after Marilyn Monroe. The character of Ginger was sultry and her voice was similar to Monroe's when she sang Happy Birthday to President John F Kennedy. Ginger's hairstyle and even her walk were inspired by that late sex symbol at the request of the powers that be.
