Mary Worth 1859

Just click on the image above to get the full size version, and save it as your Facebook cover photo.

Everyone who guessed that Olive would hide in the pool, please submit your Charterstone Jukebox nominations to the Condo Board. Remember, the Condo Board Jukebox Committee has final determination of approved selections. And congratulations everyone. Because I think everyone was a winner on this one.

Meanwhile, Olive and the angel who rescued her are sitting at one of the poolside tables sipping hot cocoa. They watch Mary with alarm, because she is going to hit the water with her face rather than the top of her head, and will probably need rescuing herself. Good try, Mary!

I nominate "Grey Seal" by Elton John. Because...come on!

(Yes, I know that my "guess" was Diner, but I was being Sarcastic.)

Someone mentioned one day that it might be Tommy who would rescue Olive on his way home from his night shift. It would've been a cool plot twist to tie the two stories together. Of course, that sort of thing would take the kind of imagination consistently absent anywhere else other than the far more talented commenters on this blog. Instead, we have the unlikely situation where someone rises from a dream and instantly takes action on that dream. Devoid of logic and creativity: that would be Moy.

I don't know but I'm thinking we might be blaming Moy unfairly. I'll bet Uncle Joe has been begging Moy for years, for a story line where he could draw Mary in a wet nightie.

No swim cap? Did she shower before entering the pool? Clearly she is not wearing proper swim attire. Mary is in for a world of hurt from the condo board.

Note to self: Never order anything from the Joe Giella Nightgown and Negligee Collection Catalog.

"so sink or swim I'm diving in"...
"Dive" by Steven Curtis Chapman. The song popped into my mind as soon as I saw Mary planking - I mean diving- this morning. A sight definitely worth the price of the Sunday newspaper.

The "Planking Panel" (thanks anonymous!) Is definitely Worthy Award-worthy.

How exciting! Uncle Joe hadn't done a superhero pose since his days at DC Comics.

All Saint Mary needs to make this a perfect image is a cape.

Carlye said...

Sandi, do we live in the same condo complex? Mine would be fining Mary before she got out of the pool.

KitKat said...

Because of their strong connection, Mary and Olive are garbed in matching nightgowns.

It sure got dark from yesterday to today!

Darth Curt said...

Yay! The pool! So I know this isn't really the right genre for the Juke Box, but Olive is still in need of some medical treatment by the bad doctor... so... Bad Medicine by Bon Jovi???

Fortunately, the mermaids (related to the flower fairies- only special people can see them) showed Olive how to breathe underwater, so she was perfectly comfortable, until she realized she'd have to rescue Mary.

I'm sure Wanders was kidding, but I did actually put Mary's "Planking Panel" as my Facebook profile pic. It's epic!

How about "Intuition" by Jewel. I didn't guess the pool but I did guess that Mary's MeddleSense would kick in when Olive tripped into the pool.

Splish-Splash by Bobby Darin.

Gee, I hope the weight of their Kevlar nightgowns don't keep Mary and Olive from surfacing. Maybe Tommy will have to show up after all.

Panel 3: Mary and Olive have such a strong psychic connection that Mary just has to think very hard for Olive to hear her. Mary thinks loudly: "Glub, glub, that's Mrs. Worth to you, Olive. Show some respect! Gulp, gag..."
