"Dorothy’s ruby slippers have held great meaning for people ever since 1939...galvanizing community for gay men who identified as ‘friends of Dorothy’ in the 1970s... seeding happy memories for so many Americans.”

BARF. I USED to have happy memories, but they were just dashed to pieces.

Deleted scene from The Wizard of Oz. Apparently too many Democrats objected.

Bill Clinton was heard to say “I know nothing about that dress.”

I loved The Wizard of Oz as a child and still do. Have a DVD I play every year.

I have an unedited version of Blazing Saddles I play every so often, when I feel like being an equal opportunity offender and dump on everyone.

I remember my parents turning it on back when I was around 6. Too creepy. Ugly monkeys and the Munchkins song was weird. Still can’t watch it.

"On June 7, Ripa was cleaning out a building ahead of renovations when he found a mysterious trash bag tucked on top of the faculty mail slots."

If the dress was missing for almost 50 years, they clean as often as I do.

1st Sunday in May is our traditional family occasion for viewing. Over the years I have become especially impressed with Bert Lahr’s timeless performance.

Lahr was always amazing. I had tickets to see him in a Broadway show, but stage workers went on strike that night. @$@$@#
