watch out Ron C., I don't think dear-old-Deb approves of wine (just whine), she might go off on you.

[Lazamataz]

Uh oh. Shades of hanging chads on the butterfly ballot.

[Ron C.]

"I'm surprised Harper did so well."

Not I. The left dominates Hollyweird - usually. But what makes this significant - this was, after all - a union election. That, to me, makes the election even more the harbinger of a shift in political taste in CA.

I've spent twenty plus years working in the studios, all of them - and in the homes of the stars, the directors and the common work-hands of the industry. This - is big. As big as Reagan's election was.

Are you going to stalk me from thread to thread? If you have something to say, say it there, tough guy

Can I stalk you from thread to thread? I'm a tough guy! (bats eyelashes)

[Deb]

Oh, allright.

[TBoone]

That's one of the best photos I've seen of Melissa Gilbert. She's classy and smart. I bet the Libs DO want a recount!

CONGRATULATIONS PRESIDENT GILBERT!

Most of the Florida actors voted for Pat Buchanan by mistake. Katherine Harris is partisan. Gilbert is a selected, not an elected, president. The Supreme Court of the United States is biased.

Is all this good enough to make me an honorary liberal?

[Ron C.]

"Beauty, brains and so much poise and class!"

There are many with that description in the industry - but, they get short-shrift on parts, work seldom, and are not part of the party-scene. They are the 'untouchables' in the town. Too bad. There was a time that it was the opposite.

[Lazamataz]

Pets....2 dogs, three cats,three birds,one rabbit, one hamster

I'm not sure about those hamster people.

Politics?....Democrat

I knew it.

[Lazamataz]

Oh, allright.

:o)

[Glenn]

Book?.....Fall on your Knees by Anne-Marie MacDonald

Damn good book. Damn liberal book.

[Texas Yellow Rose]

Politics?....Democrat I knew it.   On the BRIGHT SIDE...  Ronald Reagan was a Democrat in the old days too.

I just read the thread you posted Deb's comments from.

:-} Deb isn't the problem Rob, your problem is Libertarian'S for Peace and the moron who wrote that garbage.

[Deb]

Thanks, JW, you can stalk me too.

[Valin]

Not to mention those in the animated persons community. Why should the small fact that you're not actually alive stop a person from voting.
