I also saw a sci fi comedy called Hyperdrive. Looking at reviews afterwards it seems some folks can't see past Red Dwarf. But the Hyperdrive crew, like Blake and his crew, are a bit more conflicted than that. They got a £1.50 budget allowing for effects Blake could only dream of.

Some names, like Blake or Jake or Jason or Will, seem to be used a lot for "cool" hero type characters.

And then there's Wes for Wesley Crusher

I'm just glad there's enough moisture to be bringing back the Fall Astilbe plants I put in late last Spring. Well, about half of them have come back. But the dry, hot season came very early last year and I thought none of them would return. So I'm pleased.
The mini-guide that came with the plants said not to water them frequently when young, because they wouldn't build up strong roots. At least now I know to ignore that advice with the ones which are still left.

Usually on Mothers Day, the Arnold Arboretum hosts Lilac Sunday. They have a multitude of lilac plants of all varieties.

I would love that. Last fall, I got to visit the Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, with mr_cleome.

One year I went the week before and because of the warm weather the lilacs were at their peak then. An employee there said that they probably would be all over by next Sunday

April is the month for Cherry Blossom here, but it's been cold and miserable. So it might be the end of the month rather than midway.

I misread that as Cheryl Blossom, that redheaded girl competing for Archie Andrews' affections. As if Betty and Veronica weren't enough.

I wonder if red-headed X-Bomb Betty was based on Cheryl B too

Fred Flintstone is based on Jackie Gleason's Ralph Kramden character

The Honeymooners is classic. And the episodes hold up well even though they are 62 years old.

I've not seen the Honeymooners, but I recognise the catchphrases so they've had a wide reach as well as longevity.

I don't recognize the catchphrases. Sadly, I'm not that in tune with pop culture.
