MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES

Someone -- I don't remember who -- was talking on TCM about Marilyn at a party, where she, according to this person, made a couple of gaffes which revealed her lack of sophistication/education, but I also cannot recall what they were. I think Monroe really tried to better herself intellectually which might account for the large library.

Oh dear, I see who is being celebrated tomorrow morning and afternoon. (cue JAWS music) JUNE ALLYSON!!

NO!!!!

(respects nevertheless to her fans, that is, if she has any)

(sorry)

I seem to recall there's a photo of Marilyn with Albert Einstein.

Uh-huh, and not to be outdone, Jayne Mansfield once had HER picture taken with Enrico Fermi.

(...while claiming she thought Italian geniuses were especially sexy)

Does anyone know when A CHARLIE BROWN THANKSGIVING will be aired this month on plain old commercial television? (ABC, NBC, CBS) I am having problems with YouTube (cannot get any volume, try as I might) where I used to watch these beloved holiday classics.

No, there really IS a photo of Marilyn with Albert.

I seem to remember reading somwhere that Jayne's genius IQ was just a fabrication...

[Hibi]

Yeah, I know there is, Bronxie.

This was just once again a case of me being me here, that's all.

(...and besides, what's wrong with givin' Enrico a shout out now and then TOO, right?!)

LOL

[Bronxgirl48]

No, Hibi, thankfully not ALL day long, lol. Primetime starts Creature Features, which is more my cup of tea.

However I'm sure Walter Pidgeon will be in a few of them so if you want to see his tongue in action during a smoke, this might be the time.

June's b-day has passed -- was in October.

Btw Bronxie, this might be the pic you're thinking of here...



However, the problem with this is that it might have been photoshopped.

Ya see, there really is no confirmable evidence of MM and AE ever really having met at all.

[Hibi]

It's NOT June's birthday. Why inflict June on us for no reason??????????

Yes, I just looked it up! Why inflict her on us when It's not even her birthday????? I might record a few scenes just to check on Walter, but I'm not sure I'm ready to see that!!!

I just checked and it appears Pidge isn't in any of them! SAVED!!!

Oh ziggy thanks so much -- I can't seem to get into that link, though. I really want to watch it old-school style, on the regular commercial networks, not online or streaming. It is just not Thanksgiving (or Christmas) without the Peanuts gang and I get very nostalgic about this.
