Movies
I'm a Netflix junkie with a variety of movies and documentaries currently in my queue. Click here to join my friends list there and explore. As far as movie titles go, I'm a huge fan of classic films, especially comedies like Bombshell, His Girl Friday, Some Like It Hot and Designing Woman and dramas such as The Maltese Falcon, The Women, Breakfast at Tiffany's and To Kill a Mockingbird. Modern movies are okay, too. ;) I like smaller independent films, like one I saw recently, The Amateurs.

"Lots of people talk to animals. Not very many listen, though. That's the problem." ~ Benjamin Hoff
"It takes community to maintain a human." ~ Earon Davis
"Why do you have to 'put your two cents in' but it's only 'a penny for your thoughts?' Where's that extra penny going to?" ~ LOLz food for thought from my friend Shantastic
Hello gals and pals! Jack Warner calls, I must obey, so it's back to sunny California I go. Saw some interesting sights from my train compartment window...
Not being fond of fishing (I oft times pity anything caught on a hook, including Warner contract players), nothing about these guys changed my mind about the ol' rod and reel.
It's reassuring that America's farmland is thriving so well.
I knew Texas grew *everything* big, but this takes the cake. And would eat it too (and probably your arm as well.) Still humming 'My Little Bunneroo'...apologies, apologies.
But Texas ain't got nothing on California's peaches!
Home at last; now it's just a matter of fighting the heavy traffic back to my San Fernando Valley ranch to have time to hug each and every one of my animals and rest up for tomorrow's 6:00am set call. Oy.
Hello my dear Lisa...just sharing a few pictorial highlights of where I spent some of my teenage years and where my folks still call home. Upon my arrival, being the local boy who made good, I was mobbed by multitudes of fans.
Having plenty of time, I decided to visit some of Rochester's more interesting places. Uh...er....spent some reflective moments with George Eastman...
Dropped by Rochester's Time Square. Yes indeedy, the party never ends.
Can't get enough of this place...
Took my parents to a ball game. Gee, I miss Yankee Stadium.
