Anyway, we went to the Paris premier (in English with French subtitles). As a typical young boy of about 10 or so I was enchanted by this movie with almost no women and no mushy stuff.

Wow. I probably would have fainted dead away. I mean, I was just *so* in love with him and Richard Burton in Beckett. And, remember The Lion in Winter?

I have a VHS copy of Lawrence of Arabia. I truck it out every now and then to watch.

I'm in *awe* that you met him! Just *WOW*

Wild ride for a bit there.
Was that a lake in the middle of the corn field back there?

I remember them all, Miss Angel. Another thing I like about him: I almost never watch Leno, but not too long ago I ran across a Leno show (I had insomnia that night) during which he sat there smoking cigarettes like there was no tomorrow. Who else has ever done that in these PC times? Way to go, Peter!

That is kind of *in your face* isn't it? LOL.

He must come from a terrific gene pool. All those years of smoking and drinking and he's still alive, bless his heart!

I dunno! I'm back here! I'm not in the van!

Did you lose CG on another limb too!?!

That's why he's still alive. I guess you didn't see the interview with the 122-year-old French woman a few years ago. The interviewer asked her if she smoked or drank. As I remember, her response was pretty close to "Hell, no, I gave up whiskey and cigarettes when I was 116!"

Long live Peter O'Toole and old French ladies!

well.. umm..
When I slid over to let him drive, we were still moving.
And there was a neato detour around the field back there.
I think CG is waiting for us back on the main drag.

I do have to remove the scarecrow from the hood though.

I thought you slid over, and CG was driving, why would you need to pick him up on the road? (uh oh...)

You sure it's a scarecrow on the hood?

LOL! I remember that French lady. Her landlord wanted to turn her apartment building into condos. At the time I believe she was nearing ninety and he promised her he would wait until she passed on.

Unfortunately for the landlord, *she* outlived *him*!

Naaah.
I'm sure that's not him on the hood.
He's sitting in the CONEvertible patiently waiting and tapping his fingers on his crossed arms.
*turns around to PAL with binocs still in front of eyes*

AIIIIEEE!
Whoops, sorry.
These things are 20 x 80's.. they have a habit of exaggerating everyothing in view as well.

I'm pretty sure it's the same lady - I mean, how many French women live to be 122? LOL!

Yes, but we're being rather obvious.
Kinda hard to miss a huge white van with ski racks in the middle of a field..

Please research and then ping everyone you know. I was just listening to Dr. Laura and she said there is a bill due to be voted on VERY SOON to examine all school children and prescribe psychotropic drugs "where needed".

I would do this but I have work, and as I said I was busted earlier today while FReeping. (Ping me on this too, when you find out!)

Thank you!
