My mum, in SoCal in the 40s, met Elizabeth Taylor, through Liz Taylor's cousin. It wasn't just the "star" thing, mum said Liz was truly beautiful and friendly.

That is true.

It's funny, my mother whose father (my grandfather) was the head of a large eastern University met Elizabeth and Mickey Rooney back around the same time. My mother was about eight years older than Elizabeth at the time and always talked about what a perfectly sweet, courteous, and well-spoken girl she was. And of course she was strikingly beautiful.

But the movie industry ground her up I suppose. What a shame.

How can anyone determine who anyone really is/whom one is -- when one's life is all about "role playing"?

As opposed to "doing one's part".

Herein lies the difference between liberals and conservatives, I think. Conservatives do their part.
