Oh, my heavens! March 21, 2013

Hello, angel friends. At the risk of letting you know how non-techy I am (and I think you know that already), I must bring you up-to-date on this past ten days.

Harold swerved, but there was nowhere for their car [...]

Quick reminder about Loretta Young

Hello, friends. Last night I stumbled into Turner Movie Channel (TMC) ‘s presentation of Platinum Blonde, a movie made in 1931 (did they have sound then?  ) featuring actress Loretta Young, whose biography (FOREVER YOUNG) I wrote in 2000. It was wonderful to see her in an old movie, and to be reminded that [...]
