Oh Woodsy Gal that is just too funny. It’s a smashing scream! BTW, have you tried the Caption This thread? I’m sure you could supply a zinger. Thanks for laugh. (and good advice too, I suppose). LR.

If you aren’t one of the winners Ms. Weill, you certainly deserve an “Honorable Mention”. Very funny! Congratulations. LR.

I don’t think you’ll win deber B, unfortunately, but you sure found a perfect spot for that classic line. It just fits so well, and you nailed it. You certainly made me chuckle. Thanks.

Susan Crawford - Never to be forgotten, wonderful Jerry Ohrbach. What a great performer and person. I would walk miles through deep snow to see him again as I first saw him in his Broadway debut musical . I can’t for the life of me remember the title but I think it was a circus type setting and I can’t even remember the music, which is very unusual for me.

I agree with your choice, “"Try to Remember”. He sang it beautifully. (But he sang everything beautifully, didn’t he? - always a truly, “Star” performer). I can understand why it gets you right here! LR.

Barbara - I made sure my sweetheart read your very rational and intelligent discourse, and we both are even more confident than ever that we are going in the right direction.

Dorothy Parker ? - I’ve loved her from the first moment I learned about her, which was from the following:

I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I’m under the table,
after four I’m under my host.

Even Shakespeare couldn’t have thought of anything more creative than that. 

Poor Butterfly. An everlasting beauty of a song. Written in 1916 by Raymond Hubbell, with lyrics by John Golden. I have loved it all my life. It has always meant so much to me.

Gi’me a light, and I’ll show you my laptop.

Patty - I wasn’t aware of this extra pain she suffers. That’s all she needed. I can understand her lack of inclination to smile. Hopefully even this will pass and we will again see her charm the socks off the leaders of the Nations she must deal with in representing her Country. (Nice to hear from you again. All the best, as always). LR.

Linda Myers - Thank you so much for your analysis of my recurring dream. It sounds a little complicated but I accept your obviously experienced interpretation. It is far more intricate than the simple explanations that my mother would give me out of her famous, “dream book”. I will learn from your impressions, and I thank you for your kind attention.

By the way, if you, or any of my WOW friends, in the dreams you have, should ever notice a poor lost wandering soul, would you please stop me and help me out. You will easily recognize me because you’ll always hear me singing  my song, “Show me the way to go home”.

Secretary of State is a “big, tough job”, and of course, terribly important. It takes a special person to do it well. I think Hillary will go down in history as another American woman who is quite able to face up to the almost impossible difficulties involved in facing the sage and shrewd world leaders who would have presumed that a woman in that job would be an easy pushover. That is to say until they had to deal with Madeline Albright, who put a tight lid on that  erroneous presumption. Hillary is certainly qualified and competent enough because of her extensive past history in dealing with matters governmental on a national and world stage. She needs some further refinement and polishing before she can be accepted in the same class as Ms. Albright, but she has the right stuff to reach that point.

I don’t like to see her looking so tired and exhausted, and the bags under her eyes would be much less noticeable if she would only smile a little more now and then. Many scenes I have observed lately show her as being very sour and unpleasant looking. Her lovely smile would add so much to her other attributes is she could only make the special effort to display it more often.
