    I had a feeling you’d appreciate this, Sheila. Writing this post reminded me that I’m just a wealth of useless information when it comes to Little House on the Prairie. Like, I could talk FOR HOURS about the creepy episode about Sylvie who was raped by the blacksmith. I think this definitely calls for a whole new post (or even a series of them) on my psychotic, photographic memory of all things Little House. Stay tuned.

    she’s right though; that was a staple of 70’s tv plots.

    Just1Beth, I think I need to have drinks with Betsy. I imagine that we’d close down the bar with discussions ranging from how the hen-pecked Nels nearly cheated on Harriett with that woman with the fake Irish accent who ran a B&B to the hot blind guy who hoisted Albert into the end zone to score the winning touchdown.

    Ask me what I had for breakfast today and I’ll be stumped. Ask me about the saga of James and Cassandra and I can speak at length. I’m sick.

    curly – Betsy sent me her stream-of-conscious thoughts when re-watching the final episode of Little house.

    Read it and LAUGH.

    I’ve read that before! But I just read it again and it still makes me wheeze. And I just LOVE the idea of you wearing a bonnet to school. HA HA!

    Awesome, Betsy! I look forward to lots o’ booze and highly detailed episode recaps.

    Sheila, I’m STILL giggling over the fact that someone quoted “Bringing in the Sheaves” in the comments on Betsy’s post. If I may quote my mother: “N’erth! Don’t they know any other songs?”

    curly – I KNOW. hahahahaha

    I also like Betsy’s comment about her daughter not really wanting to read the books – but if they were called “Little Crib in the Hood” maybe her daughter would check them out.

    hahahahahaha
