I really enjoy your book and movie reviews. You are a sensational writer and poet, Joanne!<br /><br />JulieEmpty Nest Insiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074223969046687064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-51844813227227427372015-04-22T20:50:05.285-05:002015-04-22T20:50:05.285-05:00Would love to visit Salado and stay in that histor...Would love to visit Salado and stay in that historic hotel! I was "country when country wasn't cool" I lived the urban cowboy life in the early 80's. It always bugged me how they mispronounced Spurger, Tx (the city Travolta was from before he moved to Pasadena to work). I live less than 20 miles from it, and we say it like "spur" and then the end of "burger". Travolta pronounced it Spurjer. If you are gonna use a real town in a movie, for God sakes pronounce it like the locals do!!! Many, many local are pipefitters and welders went to work in Pasadena in the 70's & 80's.<br />Visit me at: <a href="http://lifefaithincaneyhead.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Life & Faith in Caneyhead</a><br />I am Ensign B of <a href="http://authorstephentremp.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tremps' Troops</a><br />with the <a href="http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/p/a-to-z-challenge-sign-uplist-2015.html" rel="nofollow">A to Z Challenge</a><br />Barbara In Caneyheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06053601327400989802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-23990766520353809532015-04-22T15:00:45.069-05:002015-04-22T15:00:45.069-05:00Yup, Spur is the most Texan of Texan things I'...Yup, Spur is the most Texan of Texan things I've learned about this month! <br /><br />Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-43103051239429220822015-04-22T14:22:04.707-05:002015-04-22T14:22:04.707-05:00Sounds lovely, snakes and all.
