Thought I'd posted this yesterday, but I guess the Cyber-Gods had other ideas:

HAPPY 138th BIRTHDAY (August 26, 1884) to Earl Derr Biggers creator of Detective Charlie Chan! And in case you are looking for a present for Earl, see my August 1st blog:

Happy [belated] Birthday Earl! Lou

A happy birthday to Mr. Biggers. Letting him know that his creation is still popular in the 21st Century, both in print and in the visual arts. 90 years after the last Chan book was published, we still love Charlie Chan !!!
