"I was sitting next to Monica Lewinsky when I took this. I wish I could have gotten Monica in it, too. It would have been the photo of a lifetime. But she has already been through so much, I just let her eat. Poor girl has had enough." - Calpernia Addams

My google alert for "World of Wonder" brought me two fun things since the Holiday Winter Boogie Wonderland Rollerskating Party on Friday night... (more about the party coming soon).

The first alert was from Calpernia Addams' Diary, a fun post about her experience at the skating party, including some fabulous pictures from the photobooth by Polite in Public. Calpernia is some kind of superblogger as her coverage of the party was already showing up in my google alert by 5am Saturday morning.

The other fun item was this vintage 1971 TV clip of Dean Martin and Shirley Jones singing "Let it Snow" as they stroll around their California Ranch with their pool and their parrots... from Dartman's World of Wonder blog (not affiliated with us), who has a huge collection of fabulous "Christmas in The World of Wonder" posts - it's all 60's and 70's Americana pop culture stuff... very entertaining.
