Neo, you still should not have to put up those ads. There are other extensions out there that can fine tune the blocking process, let you still access the sites you want, while filtering out all the garbage.

I often send photos through email, via my phone, as well, and I don’t have ads pop up because I cut those hydras off completely. There are ways to have near-total commercial privacy online.

Of course, it might be annoying to deal with fixing it. Maybe the activation energy is too high. I totally get that, too.

Hey, I’m just mansplaining over here. 🙂

That’s true. I think Blackwell would be good at helping the Government.

ABC news is rejoicing, + saying something like: [in 2023, Mr. Hakeem Jeffries will be the head of the Democrats in The House, making him- the first Black person to lead a political party, in Congress].

Well Michael Steele, in 2009, became the first African-American person to head [The Republican National Committee], so- I guess Mr. Jefferies can go over to Mr. Steele’s office, + Mr. Steele will say: Welcome aboard.

Davis did a Perry Mason episode once in her later years, I assume because Raymond Burr was temporarily unavailable and the weekly series timetable brooked no slack,

Bette Davis lived in Laguna Beach CA and contributed a lot to the Laguna Playhouse when Harrison Ford was working there as a carpenter. Hard to believe he is 82.

I’ve seen this movie half a dozen times. The repartee is precious, in the best way, and only once, maybe, fails to be both dramatic and believable at its own high standard. If this clip continued to the end, I’d probably watch it all!

If there was ever a sequel, it should be “All about Miss Casswell.” Monroe doesn’t even have to act—she seems truly in awe of appearing in the center of the screen opposite Bette Davis—until she prepares herself to gladden the heart of the ‘unhappy rabbit,’ our pal, Max Fabian. (I suppose she had rehearsed and performed that smile and that walk a few times, with various producers and directors, to get where she was. So meta, as the kids say.)

This brings to mind the gold and diamond clip that I purchased for my mother at a jewelry store on the Ponte Vecchio on a trip my late mother kindly financed. Then again in those days you really could do Europe on 5 dollars a day.

“The New Look” was a Christian Dior collection that debuted in 1947. The biggest splash supposedly was the Bar Dress, but another Y-line dress also made a big impact. Amount of fabric was definitely a part of it, but another part was lowering hemlines (which actually resulted in protests from women who didn’t want to change out their wardrobe).
