Wow... I am LOVING this whole conversation. I can see how everyone has their leanings on who Hallie loved... and why... or why not.. etc. And they all make perfect sense. And I LOVE the fact that there are TWO (count em' TWO) TMWSLV "newbies" here. (Ms CCfan and Miss Maven..It was fun seei...

My husband's first degree is in geology and he has collected rocks that have moved with me twice now. HA!!! I am getting visions of Lucielle Ball and the Long Long Trailer..ha. Maybe if you get enough of them you could have him build a shelf and make one entire wall a "rock wall" and use ...

what I love about America was the fact that we could do it all by car Hi Charliechaplinfan. It sounds like you folks really know how to travel. :D I bet it was great fun listening to all that music as you went rolling down the highway. You are building memories for your kids (and for yourself) that...

My dad was in the army all my growing up years, so you’d THINK I would have lived all over the place... but the truth is we did not move around quite as often as some military families do. Lived in: Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri ,Texas, Alabama, Alaska, Kentucky Visited: Arkansas, Tennessee, Indiana, I...

Lastly, who'd cast Walter Brennan as the baddie, Oh my golly, Ms Chaplinfan... Who KNEW that he had THAT in him??? (I guess only John Ford, maybe?) What a SHOCKER!! (minispoiler) I watched this movie way back in the late winter and I still cannot get over the scene where Brennan is sitting next to ...

Hi Miss Maven... I am undone. HA! You have used my own crop circles against me! HA!! :D I think I lean a little on the other side of you politically. In fact... to be honest... I had my own political comparisons floating around in the back of my mind as I was writing some of what I have in this thre...

I must be going to the wrong hospitals... this is not the first time I have heard of this happening, (free ER visits for the uninsured). Now admittedly it has been a couple of years since last I had to go to the ER, but I have no insurance... and I have never received free treatment for anything fro...

If he came in like John Wayne, it wouldn't be a story about hard decisions. It wouldn't be a story about US and what we would do. A lone man standing up against a mob with a shaky voice.... that is a powerful example for us. Duke fan that I am, a little sliver of me WISHED for him to "magicall...

Your post made me wonder what happened to the town after this? I picture it drying up, and becoming a ghost town, as the men slowly left. Another set of lives affected by that fateful event. Hi Jackie... thanks for the feedback on my post.. and you are right... I am sure this whole "incident&q...

Miss G, Ms Favell... too funny... I'll have a BLT with an order of HB on the side... to go. ha.

Why don't you like Humphrey Bogart? Gulp.... Ha.. NOW you've gone and done it..ha. I am cornered... I am suddenly having a flashback to the time I was 18 years old and my Grandma asked me why I did not like TOMATOES.. ha. (And the reason for my distaste for Bogart is VERY similar... and EQUALLY as ...

YOU gals are cracking me up!! ha PS.. Hiya neighbor Nancy... thanks for the offer to help me w/ BOGIE. ha.. I need all the help I can get. If you hear a loud cry of despair coming from the east side of the state line... you will know it is me... ha. :D OH.... good gravy. My year is turning into one ...

Maybe you'll even become a Bogie fan HA!! Having just watched The Searchers the other night... You KNOW what I REALLY want to say to that, don't you????????? :lol: Alas.. you have guessed the REAL reason why I have always avoided that movie, though... ha. I AM that obvious, I guess.. ha. I have had...

Notorious is my FAVORITE Claude Rains performance. And I also liked him in Now Voyager as well. But Casablanca.... (well, can I confess this here w/out being banished or something?? Oh... this is so embarrassing to admit. Oh the drama… ha) I have NEVER seen it. (gasp... I know... how SHOCKING!!!) ha...

Ok… I just can’t contain myself anymore..ha. I have to blab… (mrsl… you will likely end up revising your statement about not minding long posts…ha) So… while we are waiting on Ms Maven.. if it is ok… I will jabber for a bit. Now, as I said, it has been a year since I watched this film and as much as...
