Emma | meadowroselibrary That's so funny, Pammy! πŸ˜‚ I laugh so hard every time someone uses it. πŸ˜‚ The first time I said it, I didn't mean it as "bed," but Meg took it that way, so therefore it's her fault that we're stuck with sleeping with a lion!! 🀣🀣🀣

Pamela | 2209 comments Zamba's original name was Leo and he is the lion that MGM has used in it's logo since 1957. 🎬They still use Zamba even though he is long gone. So, from now on, when you see an MGM film and you see the loud roaring lion at the beginning of every movie...THAT is Zamba! 🦁 Try sleeping with THAT on your mind! 🦁😳LOL!!!

Don't worry Emma, if Dorry weren't so fortunate to have me for a sister she wouldn't know either. As it is she obviously doesn't know much about her or she'd know she wasn't an author! 🀣

Pamela | 2209 comments Henry David Thoreau & Ralph Waldo Emerson. I'm not positive it was Emerson, but I know Thoreau allowed Emerson to "practice" camping on his property so he could get used to camping. Strange to "practice" camping, but I remember reading that somewhere.

I sleep with a polar bear! Of course, she is stuffed, wears earmuffs and a pink sweater. I named her Muffy! My mom gave her to me when I was in the hospital a couple of years ago. She's very cute, doesn't growl, and never eats anything! LOL!!! I also sleep with two cats. They ARE real, but of the domestic variety.

Did you post your guess? I didn't see it.🧐
Never mind, I just looked back at your previous comments and finally saw your guess about Emerson! I have a feeling that's correct!

Yeah, I first said Thoreau, then a comment or two later I said Emerson. #8874. But if it's right, you can have it, because you worded it better than I did, and your questions are a lot better than mine! πŸ˜‚

"IF" we are correct about Emerson, you should take the next question, Emma. You guessed first, so it's the fair thing to do.πŸ™‚

I still feel like you should have it if that's it...I feel like I've done one more recent than you have.

sigh If you're so determined, Pammy. πŸ˜‚πŸ€— I'm really going to laugh if we're not right! πŸ˜‚ Though I'm pretty positive we are. πŸ˜‰
