Really the only online site I am on is this one, and, yes, I have never made unclear my fondness for Cloris Leachman. I did post a comment on YouTube on the clip with the breathtaking Cloris' wonderful acceptance speech for her Oscar win for "The Last Picture Show", but does that sort of thing travel? Oh, and as an amateur master of the non-sequiter, I end with this. I implore you to watch the clip and share what you think of Cloris Leachman here. Like what impressions does she give. And who else thinks Cloris is more attractive than the wound up, super wooden Raquel Welch. I find Cloris to be absolutely radiant here. She actually glows. Oh, wow, too funny, I just now had the thought that the writers for this part were probably thinking "Let's let Gene present the nominee "Who is Harry Kellerman and Why is He Saying These Terrible Things About Me?" because Raquel won't be able to recall that many words in a row. She'll flub it." Lol! Poor Raquel. I never really liked her. There's a mean streak there. I don't know about you, DP, but as a straight woman I think what makes Cloris far more attractive than Raquel is one quality: intelligence. While RW may not be as dumb as she looks, she seems woefully behind CL in sheer intellect. And I feel the same way about male attractiveness. If a guy doesn't project smarts, he's highly unlikely to appeal to me (not that the average IQ-challenged glamor-boy would care whether or not he appeals to a woman old enough to be his mother  ). Yeah, that is a little creepy about their knowing you're a big admirer of CL. Unless...by any chance, is Ms. Leachman also a fan of Westies? Maybe that's the connection. Have you ever seen Raising Hope? From her appearances in that show alone, a viewer would know that Cloris Leachman is a friggin genius, genius! That cast was peopled with actors who are just scary talented and crazy smart. And I didn't realize that, back when, she looked like this. Very pretty!

I'll never understand why people INSIST on putting all their personal business on facebook. Are they looking for attention? Does it make them feel important? I don't do facebook..... I think it's for nosy people and idiots.  I know what you're saying. Gubbio, but Facebook has a place in my life and in my heart. A lot of old friends, from real life to the Internet, have gathered there. We lounge, we share, we discuss current affairs, from news, from Trump to COVID, the environment, the arts.
To me, it's rather like Andy Warhol's definition of art: it's whatever I saw it is; what I want. It's a good place to hang and deal with general things, from joy to grief. I don't see it as one thing. It's many things.
