I love th...Thank you, Karen, for your lovely words! I love that song! Yes, I think we just have way too much negativity in our lives and we are not looking to counteract it. We need pretty stuff, funny stuff, loving stuff...not all garbage and mayhem. It is a matter of balance. We need not be Pollyannas with no concern for serious matters but we can also celebrate what is joyous and wonderful about life. Unfortunately, beauty needs a lot more pushing in our society today - in the way we dress, in the television and movies we watch, in our reading material, in our activities. <BR/><BR/>Here' hoping this year we decide to improve on that!<BR/><BR/>PatPat Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15667909509324138003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316617410436977874.post-56249535188547756022009-01-13T01:06:00.000-05:002009-01-13T01:06:00.000-05:00Pat,I came all the way back, and scrolled for mile...Pat,<BR/>I came all the way back, and scrolled for miles, to tell you how great you were on Dana's show! This post is wonderful, but hearing you express it was even better. We all wallow in the muck so much we lose sight of the fact that there are really good people out here, also. <BR/>When I was a child, there was a popular country song that went something like, "Let's forget about the cheatin and the lying, the killing and the dying, and the fellow with the switchblade knife.. Let's think about living, let's think about life". It was as twangy as they came and my mother was appalled that I had learned it, word for word (at a neighbor's house). <BR/>I probably haven't thought of it in 40 years but, as I listened to you, it came back. <BR/>Yes, there are horrible people out there doing unspeakable things to each other--but sometimes we just have to stop and search for the good and wonderful, even if it's only a corny movie, with no bad words, and a happy ending!! <BR/>Thank you for reminding me,<BR/>KarenOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316617410436977874.post-59887397353177529522009-01-08T15:22:00.000-05:002009-01-08T15:22:00.000-05:00When I saw Mr. Pardo's pic, I mistook it for a sul...When I saw Mr. Pardo's pic, I mistook it for a sullen mug shot of an out of shape Troy Aikman! <BR/><BR/>Sorry, Troy!

But you can get them from Netflix and if you live in a large metropolitan area, there is likely to be a movie theatre showing them on the big screen. Bollywood movies are typically 2 1/2 to 3 hours long with some six song and dance sequences in them (even the movie is a murder mystery or a war film)!<BR/><BR/>Bollywood films give me a break in life from all the stress. One really gets to know the stars in these films because they constantly show up in one film after the other; they are much like family to the audience.<BR/><BR/>Shahrukh Khan, voted sexiest man in Asia (and why not the world?) is a fabulous actor, doing everything from Jerry Lewis style comedy to playing psycopaths, and mafia dons. He is, however, loved most for his romantic roles because as he jokingly states, "I could make love to a cow on screen and make it look like chemistry" and he is so right. He represents the perfect man to many women and he certainly has raised the bar for any men in my life::laughs::Pat Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15667909509324138003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316617410436977874.post-8511099435742811762009-01-06T07:32:00.000-05:002009-01-06T07:32:00.000-05:00Pat - what a great post.
