My 10 Favorite Songs of the Last Seven Days

The hits just keep coming from the Jerry Lewis's 1975 MDA telethon. I attend church now in Madisonville with a woman who did youth ministry at a church in Las Vegas, where she worked with the New Zoo Revue people.

What's On TV Today (1974)?

 I think I'm going to try to post a lot more at the HP. It's fun.

I did about a half hour of deep dive into the name and address listed on the cover of this TV Guide. I found the house in Rockland, Maine, where it was delivered. I found a preacher/author/publisher in Rockland with the same last name, who may or may not, of course, have been connected to the people. This fella has written a good bit about Universalists in Maine, and, indeed, the house where this TV Guide was delivered is just up Broadway/U.S. 1-A from a Universalist church. In its Google Maps picture, you can see several hand-printed signs in front of the church, along the street:

UB BRAVE

Rise Up in spite of the Ache

We Work For Justice

Rise UP

Don't Agonize/ORGANIZE

Well, whoever it was who lived in this house and paid for this TV Guide that my wife purchased for me off eBay, thank you. And thank you, Wife, for I sure enjoy flipping through it.

Here's what was on TV this Wednesday, Oct. 30, 1974, in Rockland, Maine.

Man, The Waltons sure was a big deal. My mom loved it.
