You guys are cracking me up. Surely, of all the vanities in the world, this is the vanitiest. It’s so much vanity, I could shave in front of it, and when I opened the mirror, the Right Guard guy would be there with “Hi guy”.

Been on FR for sometime, don’t mind admitting I like ABBA. Dancing Queen, Waterloo and the others. Managed to see the musical in London and Austin, Texas, London was better. The movie is OK but not great.

After ABBA split up, the guys wrote at least two musicals.

“Mama Mia” and

“Kristina From Duvemala”
