something got me thinking about robert donat who would have likely been one of my favorite actors of all time had he not had a duck egg sized brain tumor that may have contributed to his stroke death at 53 years old... his count of monte cristo is my favorite of all who played that role... and so many of his other movies had so much in them thanks to him, though being of the era of meat grinder churning of a movie a month (or close), he had some clunkers too...
i used to love to watch old movies when i wanted to dive into the emo drama (or silly comedy from marx brothers to jerry lewis) as long as i was in the mood to look past the human fears that permeate and dominate most everything in human life...
what are you up to? :)

musical distractions
If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?
dumb poll (above), smart responders
all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...
SEARCH ME
the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ... ...
