Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Isn't it Thelma Ritter who says flings is wonderful things?

DR ELMORE - I bought that LP for ten cents MANY years ago and fell in love with the score.  And Thelma was a delight.  ;D

The CD is still played quite often around these here parts.

Okay, I'll buy that.  I'm just glad that it didn't mean that I was maladjusted in some way.

Maladjustments are inconsequential on the internet.  8)

I wonder what interesting things MR BK is finding.  :D

Poem discovered on the internet:

When the time comes
For the final line to be
Drawn through my name
In those personal address books,
Will it be done slowly
Or rapidly?
I should like to leave
More than one less "H"
So please hear me
I have been poisoned.

Written by Miss Allison Hayes on the realization that she had less than six months to live.   :'(

Great find JRand.
I don't cross out names of deceased friends. I avoid the finality and buy a new address book.

I still have Oz Derek's final text message in my cell phone!

Jean Ratcliffe told me that she used to hear her typewriter clicking during the night after she wrote Frances Farmer's "autobiography."

I told her to leave some paper in it and see what was being written.  She shuddered and only said:  "I don't think I want to know."

I prefer "It's Trad Dad", "Just for Fun" and "The Knack" to "A Hard Day's Night".

A HARD DAY'S NIGHT is so tied up with my 14th year, I can't watch it now and not be wistful....  :D

Hope you enjoy the "Lose Your Inhibition Twist" JRand, and "Another Tear Falls" by Gene McDaniels.

I've always loved Jerry Goldsmith's theme to Room 22222.

DVD:  I watched The Miracle at Morgan's Creek for the first time yesterday.  What a wonderful pushing of the 1943 envellope.  Then I started The Five Pennies, starring former DR Susan Gordon.

CD:  Making it through all my holiday presents.  Currently listening to the contemporary Christian group Jars of Clay, who remind me of a cross between America, mid-career Beatles and late-career Tears for Fears.





Jars of Clay........a cross between..............

LOL.  I get it!

Saddam has been executed.

They certainly bulldozed that one through!  I believe one of the purposes of this immoral Iraq invasion was to accomplish what was just performed.  Saddam was not my dictator - I dislike the one we have - and I believe this execution should never have happened.
