No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Cool. Thanks, Ginger!

My goodness, I've been conditioned, haven't I -- I keep expecting something horrible to happen. Anne Bancroft takes a friends' dog for a walk in Central Park and lets it off the leash for a walk, and I expect it to disappear or get eaten or run into the street or something. It doesn't, of course -- it's not that kind of movie.

Holy crap! Root canals and caps for four teeth cost $2500! In the early 1950s? That's... crazy!

Er, maybe late 50s. Oops.

Nono, this was New York! It's why she couldn't afford to go to England for Elizabeth's coronation. $2500! Crazy!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

tommyrot, I think you want this link (yours didn't go to the intro). That is... wow. I particularly like God as Monster Truck Announcer.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Speaking of hot... I bought a range, including a convection oven, which is probably far more stove than I need. Yet now I feel all home-ownerly and all that.

Because books.

I'm watching 84 Charing Cross Road

Oh, I haven't seen that in a while! Good movie. I loved the differences between New York and London, and the way she kept exclaiming over them.
