The choice is made, the verdict is here

The news was out last week.........Archie Andrews proposes Veronica Lodge.
Many people, had issues with that, saying that Archie was ruthless and that he should've chosen Betty Cooper instead , etc etc....
But me? I was happy and not the least surprised, well it always seemed so obvious, that AA was totally smitten by VL. Why then would one assume that he would choose BC over VL? Moreover, VL has a better package to offer, and in this present day, anyone will opt for VL.

Moreover, I always liked Ms.Lodge and thought very highly of her. Sure she is shallow and boastful and of the brat type, but hey she's got the works going for her man, why shouldn't she use it? Atleast she is being honest about her fabulousness right!

Betty reminds me of Devdas, always sad and constantly hoping but never wins (well occasionally she does though, but only as second choice). The Betty types are too hypocritical and personally methinks they are just too tough to deal with. And I mean no offense btw.

Ultimately, what I mean to say is that I'm glad Archie chose Veronica and I'm sure they'll live happily ever after. The only sad part about this though is that, the comic will end (sobbing continuously!). I love the Archies collection, I always get them, I grew up reading them and never missed an issue back then (now it's a different story though). My comic reading will never be the same again.

So what do you think about Archie proposing Veronica and not Betty? Tell me more.

My head is humming!

Has it ever happened to you..........you keep humming a certain song or poem or whatever all day and you just can't seem to get it off your head? Well, that's what's happening to me since morning. Every morn, on PBS we watch Arthur and Friends, and the title song is whatz on my my mind. It's meant for kids, but I believe it applies to us bigger kids too.......I think of this song as a stress buster and also a reminder of who I am. I've loved it always. Here are the lyrics for you....read on and if it's available on You Tube check it out, or better yet, PBS to the rescue!

Everday when you're walking down the street, everybody that you meet has an original point of view.
And I say Hey, what a wonderful kind of day, if we could learn to work and play and get along with each other.
You gotta listen to your heart, listen to the beat.
Listen to the rhythm, the rhythm of the street.
Open up your eyes, open up your ears.
Get together and make things better by working together.
It's a simple lesson and it comes from the heart.
Believe in yourself for that's the place to start.
And I say Hey, what a wonderful kind of day, if we could learn to work and play and get along with each other.
Hey, what a wonderful kind of day. Hey! What a wonderful kind of day! Hey!


Have a great day!
