Only Einstein is smart enough to become Norma Jean Baker




If you stand 15 feet away (or blur your eyes) it will become Marilyn Monroe.

Old "old" is the new "New"

The "New Americans"

Refers to people trying to live within their means.
Cutting back on travel, food, entertainment. Learning what it means to budget and make cuts. I feel a little guilty. In the past 2 months I have spent (superfluously) more than I made annually in 1992. But then again, until recently, I was the new american. I made my clothes, lived on food from Aldi's, counted my money before gassing up the car, didn't have cable, often didn't have a tv.
We just called it poor.
I guess I didn't realize how hard things had gotten. Or how easy things had become. Meat at every meal, not pricing different brands, ordering in, picking up tabs. Buying books, clothes, craft supplies. Taking trips, planning vacations, eyeing home electronics, things no one really needs
I'll probably go back to the "New American" lifestyle. Now that it has been brought to my attention.
But it was nice to live the way the "old america" lived for a while.

Peter Lorre



Best known for his sinister roles Lorre co-starred with other horror actors such as Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff.
He now goes by the name "Noe" and works in a chicago restaurant called Mambo Grill

from working with German playwright Bertolt Brecht to this... what a shame
but held up remarkably for his age

Blogger falls by the way side

It's just too much work.
I have joined so many damn sites to view peoples pictures and now I have had to join these "Social Networking" ones too.
I'm afraid it takes up a lot of time telling, retelling and duplicating till I feel like I'm plagiarizing myself.
Also I've actually started trying to organize my writing. I do that occasionally and my bar bill tends to increase at the same time (also it's very hard not to go back to smoking during this process).
Anyway, so sorry to say, Blogger you may suffer.
