Greetings friends and welcome to another special post with a dual purpose. I’m sending out a slightly early “Happy Thanksgiving” wish to you and your loved ones and also to share that PIX11 has just announced that a mini-marathon of episodes of “The Honeymooners” will once again be happening on Thanksgiving Day between the hours of from 11AM-3PM. According to the listings these episodes will be broadcast between showings of the holiday Laurel and Hardy classic “March of The Wooden Soldiers”. The first showing of that film will be in black and white while the one afterwards will be in color. I love sharing rundowns like this one because its such a classic show and it gets me prepped for the longer marathon which runs every New Year’s Eve. While I’ve been doing that one for awhile this is only the second time that I’ve shared about the Thanksgiving Day one and by doing it a day or so in advance you have time to program your DVR or maybe even VHS player if you still happen to have one that works and a tape. These eight episodes are good ones but I really can’t find a single episode from the “Classic 39” that doesn’t make me laugh out loud. Are any of your own favorites listed in this rundown? If so do please chime in later on. Since these episodes are beginning while a lot of the feast preparation is still going on, it might be wise to pull that small portable set out of the closet. Here’s the rundown of episodes.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: This news makes me sad and I must admit that its a selfish notion since I had only just attended “The Art Show” for the very first time last year. I don’t think that I had ever visited the Park Avenue Armory before and found that fascinating on its own. As far as the art was concerned I liked the works that I saw and the dealers that I spoke to but at the end of the day I was only able to get a video conversation with one gallerist. Everyone else seemed to be camera shy. That was different for me since I get more than a dozen per fair when I drop in to the Affordable Art Fair or the Artexpo New York. The sadder part of this cancellation is the effect that it will likely have on the folks over at the Henry Street Settlement. According to what I’ve read, The Art Show has been a big donation factor for their causes. I do hope that they successfully figure out what they want to do with this art show because I’d love to check it out again. There are already signs that there is no NYC Volta or a second Subjective Art Festival happening this year and that’s a shame as well. What do you art loving readers think about this news if you’ve ever attended The Art Show. Chime in down below in the comments and I will see you next time.
