I hate it when some person who doesn’t know me tells me to smile at work it gets better. I was planning dinner, not being scowly to you just walking by, but thanks for your input.

I’ve gotten the death glare from Museum guards before because I have bad eyesight and want a better look. It’s a wee bit embarrassing to be yelled at, but I totally understand they don’t want dirty hand sweat on irreplacable art!

I feel you. I work with the public and they don’t seem to see a Bathroom sign. Or any sign really. They even miss the “Don’t leave your children unattended because we have to call CPS” until we actually do call CPS. They notice it then.

I’m glad you corrected the Marie Antoinette comment because I was almost about to declare war in defense of someone who has been dead for a couple of centuries! I know she is the go-to as an example of the careless rich, but she really hated living at Versailles and all that pomp, and never told the poors to eat cake.

As an introvert such as myself, you are always safe just asking someone what TV shows/movies they like and then let them blather on about it. That always works when someone does it to me if I start barking on about whatever is in my head, and works when I do the same thing to someone else. Or the weather. That is…

What drugs were record producers on in the 60's that they thought this was okay? The song itself isn’t by itself incesty, so let’s get Frank’s daughter in to sing it with him? Either no one noticed or they thought it would be edgy. Or maybe the Sinatra’s were a prequel to the Targaryans. Poor Nancy.

I love your stories! Too bad you never got to meet Nancy. Jackson is one of my all time favourite songs ever since I was a kid. My mum had her Country My Way album, and I basically stole it for myself.

Why Glenn Close hasn’t won an Oscar is beyond me. She should have won for Dangerous Liaisons, but it didn’t happen. So let’s hope she gets one for this since she is just a smidge away from an EGOT. (She does have a Grammy right?)

First of all congratulations on having such a good relationship with your son that he is comfortable enough to come out to you. I was close to my parents but in the 80s it simply was unthinkable of coming out. So I am glad times are changing.

Her name is different, but she played Lucrezia Borgia in the show The Borgias, and she was pretty good. Haven’t seen her in anything else so don’t know if she just had good directors.

I went to NYC on a day trip with friends and while looking for a place to have lunch we passed some chain resteraunt that we didn’t have in Canada but had heard of. Someone in the group suggested going there just to check it out, but the rest of us vetoed that idea. Instead we found a nice little place with great…

I would imagine they do but they would probably just roll their eyes at the crap we eat. They mostly get fresh foods we have to make for ourselves. I guess going to the butchers every day is hard. LOL

I’m from Canada too, and when I went to the States and went food shopping I couldn’t believe that there were about 3 aisles just for booze! They had other stuff too, but my eyes widened about the booze.

In an ideal world where people behaved with manners and decorum, that might work. But the reality is it doesn’t always work that way. I have read of plenty of cases where couples haven’t gotten divorced, moved on and built other lives for themselves, including partners and children etc, but the one person died and…

I think the rationale behind low pay for Hollywood assistant is the perks of the job like cast off clothing, free trips and dinners, future contacts if you want to get in the business etc. But I still think they are just cheapskates since PA’s usually work long hours and have to cater to difficult demands from the…

Well the arrest thing scared the shite out of me since I did have chest pains, went to the doctors, did stress tests etc, and they said there was nothing wrong with me. Two days after that ‘the event” happened. That’s what the hospital people called it.

Something similar happened to me. Heart stopped at work, CPR performed, stopped again in the ambulance, stopped again at the hospital a couple of times. I was ashamed that I put people through so much trouble and worry after it was over.

I hope not either. So far no one in Handmaid’s Tale escapes from that world unscathed, either they are mutilated or mentally tortured, so why should Lydia who seems to like using a cattle prod? Why should she get to escape to Canada or become a hero of the resistance when she took out someone’s eye and circumcised…

Heather Locklear as Alexis would be great casting. But it looks like this show is just going to make Fallon be the Alexis character. We will see, but I am going to watch this show for sure!

Poor Sammy Jo just wanted to have fun until evil Alexis showed up to ruin it for her.
