: It's fun, but it does get on people's nerves on occasion :-) Bea dreads having intellectual company over. We once had an English Literature Professor and his wife over here for dinner. He's the dean of a major university. During dinner, before Bea could stop me, I had described Dickins "Tale of Two Cities" as a book beginning with "It was a day just like any other day" and ending with "It is a far better thing I do than I've ever done before" .......with a bunch of crap about the French Revolution in the middle. I'm sure they do the same thing. At least you didn't try and draw him into a discussion about the works of Joan Collins. Bertie |

Bertie The funny thing about Joan Collins is that when I look in the mirror I keep looking older. I think she's looked the way she does now for the last two hundred years. :-) -- Dudley Henriques |

I didn't see it but I remember it making a big splash at the time. She looked decidedly unglamorous, apparently. |

It must be terrible having to get up in the middle of the night all the time and put on all that makeup so that you look good for the Papparazzi in the morning. Man, am I glad I will never have to do that :-)) -- Dudley Henriques |
