"...ONE MINIATURE COMBINATION BIBLE AND RUSSIAN PHRASEBOOK..."

TCM has given different movie characters their own "weblogs" for a month. Odd, but creative.

The list of characters:
1) Capt. Bligh
2) Stella Dallas
3) Richard Nixon
4) Madame Anna Sebastian
5) Otto
6) Dorian Gray
7) Lolita
8) Louise Graham
9) Dr. Bob Merrick
10) Mr. Rainier
11) Dorothy Michaels
12) Bruce the Shark
13) Dr. Fassbender
14) Mick Dundee
15) Yuri
16) Robby the Robot
17) Maggott
18) the Alien (check out its e-mail address)
19) Leslie Crosby
20) Norman Bates (beware the 2-for-1 special!)
21) Scarlett O'Hara
22) Don Birnam
23) Terry Malloy
24) Dr. Strangelove (you can almost feel Peter Sellers hitting the Publish button)
25) Ratso
26) Billy
27) Maj. Strasser (go for the Kirschtorte, stay for the cheap Lederhosen...)
28) Rhoda Penmark
29) Regina Lampert
30) Jonathan Shields
31) Fred C. Dobbs

I gotta admit, some of these I have absolutely no clue on (a la 4, 9, 10, 13, 19, 22, 25, 26!, 28, 30). Anyone else know?


 
YOU KNOW YOU'RE OLD WHEN...

...you tune into the local corporate "classic" rock station for the first time expecting to hear The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and the like, and instead hear Journey, Def Lepard, Van Halen, and Styx.

Can you feel the grey hair growing?

"A MR. GATES ON LINE ONE, EL PRESIDENTE."

How do you make Bill Gates wet his pants with worry?

Dump Microsoft and change an entire government over to Linux. Brazil is doing just that. They even have been in contact with other countries that are interested in doing the same (per the NPR story I heard this morning).
