You've probably heard of: Charles Schulz, Walt Disney, Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Gary Larson, Jim Davis, and Matt Groening...but we may have never of them if it weren't for Richard Outcault....on May 5, 1895, the Sunday morning paper held a little surprise for its readers. Readers of the New York World discovered a single-strip, full-color drawing of a big-eared, barefoot little boy with a mischievous grin created by Outcault, this comic strip (called "Hogan's Alley," and later, "The Yellow Kid") became the very first commercially successful cartoon. Then in 1905 Cartoonist Winsor McCay creates "Little Nemo in Slumberland" for the New York Herald; it has a story that continues each week, which is unusual for this time.

    Introducing Douglas Stuart: “John of John” | Oprah’s Book Club from The Oprah Podcast. Follow the show: The Oprah Podcast As part of the 30th anniversary of Oprah’s Book Club, Oprah picks her 123rd selection: John of John by celebrated Scottish author Douglas Stuart. His other novels include Young Mungo and Shuggie Bain which won the prestigious Booker Prize in 2020. John of John is set in a small, fictional farming and textile town, Falabay, on an isle off northern Scotland where everybody knows everyone’s business. The story centers around three generations living under the same roof: a father, his son and the son's grandmother. The central theme to this enthralling book is the secrets these three so desperately hold on to: secrets from each other, from their neighbors and from the church. A love story at its heart, Douglas Stuart tells Oprah how he spent six years writing this book, spending 16 weeks researching the Outer Hebrides Isles on the northwest coast of Scotland talking to local people who inspired his 26 supporting characters. Oprah and Douglas Stuart are joined by an audience in New York City who enthusiastically read the book and have questions for the author.

Fairy tales and nursery rhymes endlessly entertained us as kids whilst providing us with important life lessons. Some national favorites are: Humpty Dumpty, 3 Little Pigs, Pinnochio...just to name a few. Charles Perrault, a French author, is thought to have been the first writer to establish fairy tales as a separate genre in 1695. Fast-forward a little further into the future, the Grimm fairy tales, which were published during the 19th century, have now become quite famous worldwide. Many famous authors of the modern age, like C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien, credit fairy tales and nursery rhymes with influencing their thinking and work. In fact, Charles Dickens said that fairy tales kept him ever young!

It commemorates the date this happy-go-lucky bunny made his first appearance in 1938. Bugs Bunny's first appearance wasn't on TV or any cartoon channels, but as a short theater cartoon called "Porky's Hare Hunt." Many people don't actually credit that as his first appearance and the reason for this is he was then still called Happy Rabbit. It wasn't until July 27, 1940, that "A Wild Hare" officially introduced the character called Bugs Bunny to the world. The preliminary version of Bugs Bunny was created by Ben Hardaway, whereas the official version was created by Tex Avery. Post World War II, "Knighty Knight Bugs" (1958) won an Academy Award for the Best Cartoon Short Subject. It was the first Oscar for Bugs Bunny. You can binge-watch "Looney Tunes" throughout the day, eat carrots or greet everyone you see with "what's up, doc"?

In the U.S. it's the common name for shrimp which americans serve as an italian dish made in garlic butter, dry white wine, sometimes lemon juice and parmesan cheese usually over pasta. Foodies say shrimp scampi pairs well with white wine. Since the dish is light, a rich dessert of cheesecake or crème brûlée rounds out the meal. Scampi, as it turns out, is the name given to the Norway lobster--and british Scampi appears to be served as a form of fish-and-chips....so if you're not a shrimp lover, you can opt for other alternatives like scallops or lobster.
