Curiouser and Curiouser Kills Alice



-- Click to enlarge! --

And soon the Cheshire Cat grew tired of Alice asking a lot of fool questions, and gobbled her right up. *

The cat: is the maniac who sleeps in my bed most nights! And most nights, he sleeps there alone.

"Alone..."

-- Cue Allan Jones!

No, I won't stop rhyming. ;)

...

Wanted to post this picture 'cause it makes me smile.

Going through one of my sad phases tonight, where I think every film blog is a million times better than mine -- better written, and cooler -- and would love to just set this place on fire.

* Yes, I know I ended a sentence with a preposition. You want to fight about it?

If anyone in the audience can provide me with a non-watermarked, non-'Getty Images' picture of Thelma Todd and Charley Chase kissing, I will grant thee three wishes! And then -- so I won't have to read my own writing?? -- you can write a guest piece for me: HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION IN LOVE WITH LAUREL AND HARDY. Nope, that's not it. HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION IN LOVE WITH RICHARD CASTLE AND KATE BECKETT. Yep. That's it. Or you can always write an essay beneath the topic o' the old standbys: MY FAVORITE DEAD END KID AND WHY, or MY FAVORITE MARX BROTHER AND WHY.

Wait. If you're giving me a picture of my two current favorite stars kissing, why would you have to write an essay??

The secret word tonight is: Wine.

And it's my five year anniversary of sobriety. Failed sobriety.

(Two years off it; three years back on it.)

I just took this pathetic attempt at some uplifting silliness, and crash-dived it!

What say you, Dana Andrews??



"I wish you still loved me."

I wish I still loved me, too.

Other film blogs "better written and cooler"? Perish the thought! None can compare!

I still love you, Ginger.

I saw a cat in church, last year on St. Francis day. It was in such baby carrier you wear over your belly and pretty shy. They were sitting right behind my adopter, while I was in my mother ship.

The little doll is very pretty. And the cat really looks like wanting to eat it. When I was little I used to attack Barbies too. I know a pet gull in the U.K. that is attacking a Barbie on YouTube. I hope the gull is well. I hope your cat is well. And I hope you are well.

You do write pretty experimental. It's extraordinaire indeed. :>)

M.D. Jackson: Thank you.

I'm lucky you even care, let alone love.

I'm just feeling sorry for myself...or no, just feeling inadequate, I guess.

I wish I'd snap out of it!

Clarrisa: Well, hello old friend. ;)

I still smile at the sight of your screenname.

Experimental? I'll take it.

I'm sort of well. Well as can be expected, of a person like me.

I too hope you are well! :)

No, that was me. It's my adopter's fault, she hadn't signed out as she always should.SIGH
I'll tell her she's supposed to drop by here.

I am well, only she feels stressed.... too much politics.

I'm not at the Stephanie Miller LiveBlog yet. Don't know whether I'm gonna go now....

oh dear your cat always yawns when you take pics of him too? i should introduce him to miss pewfy pants!

hmmm, if i was your cat would i have to sleep alone? which begs the question....where do you sleep? or do you sleep?

haha i bet you dont think my blog is a million times better than yours! seriously tho you shouldnt compare, yours is the only blog like yours on the net, there is only one you and you are special and so is your blog....so knock it off ;)

sadly i have no pics of Thelma Todd kissing Charley Chase, nor any pics of Thelma Todd, nor any pics of Charley Chase, but i do have a nice pic of Joe E Brown in a baby carriage from the film Broadminded which features Thelma Todd....will that suffice?
