It showed up once a year and I ALWAYS watched it. Ah, the days before video and DVD and Netflix!! It was a special event with the Wizard of Oz came on.<br /><br />Just the other night, our young friend was calling his Mom "The Wicked Witch of the East." I said, "You mean west! The witch from the east was Glinda, the good witch!" :) i know his mother. She really is more like Glinda!Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108355111065091083.post-2584107782199319402013-09-30T04:04:25.149-07:002013-09-30T04:04:25.149-07:00You're in luck Jono.
