Only 2 strikes, Sadie, but who's counting ... not out at all. You keep giving it that ol' college try ... I luv it!. Thanks Tineke, do I get the relics along with the goodies? Mari, thank you for your good wishes, and Marcia, I'm glad I got lei'd on my birthday, too. Tracy ..., I warned Marcia about the dangers of too much toasting ... A word to the wise...
Cheryl, my birthdays are usually vulture free, anyway, or so my past experience has informed me, but I'm grateful for the thought, anyway. If you're a fellow Gemini, do I get a chance to get a crack at you this month?**Heehee**

So we share a birthday, eh, oh fellow Gemini?
("The Twins", probably as alike as two peas in a pod, right?)
( -- Well, nurture has to come into it too, right?) You grew up to be a wolf:
(Although whether Canis lupus or Canis rufus, you never specified, I believe.)...
Whereas I had more insipid influences and became an shy puppy-dog, eager to please:
And being eager to please you, I'll make sure that this is a
proper birthday celebration,
which should include several essential elements,
one of which is music:
(You would, of course, be expected to sing along with enthusiasm:)
As would everybody else at the party ...
...(even the refreshments!)
We'd have the wherewithall to eat (well, nibble), drink and be merry...
And you'd get terribly appropriate gifts for your door...
... And in general have a good, old-fashioned birthday bash...
So that the both of us will end up with a ...
My best Birthday wishes to you, Wolfie, even if you are stealing the limelight from venerable old me ..!

From an article in The Times about things to do if you don't want to watch football:So, once you have clarified where you can't go, focus on the places that you can. Cinemas seem a decent bet. Many, such as Warner and Odeon, are offering two-for-the-price-of-one deals during June for those desperate to escape the football, although whether you would want to see much of the slush on offer is another matter.
Studios have held back the British release dates of action movies such as Mission Impossible 2 to free up slots for "women-friendly" films which they hope will be an antidote to TV boredom during June.
A classic example is Madonna's The Next Best Thing (released June 23) in which she stars with Rupert Everett as a woman whose child is fathered by her homosexual best friend. Another Euro 2000 blockbuster is Return To Me, starring Minnie Driver, the story of a woman who has a heart transplant and falls in love with the donor's bereaved husband (released June 9).
Emma Cochrane, editor of Empire magazine, said The Next Best Thing has had its release date held back until June despite being out in the US for the past two months. Return To Me's date has been brought forward from September specifically to cash in on Euro 2000.
"It is quite a common practice to change the release dates to coincide with major events," said Ms Cochrane, whose magazine is running a two-for-one offer with Odeon. "It was done during the World Cup and Euro 96. It's the same principle with Matthew Perry's film It Takes Three To Tango. It's not a very good film but they thought they might as well chance their arm and put it out while there might be a boredom factor."
Similar reasoning, apparently, applies to Deception, starring Ben Affleck. "The film used to be called Reindeer Games and was supposed to come out at Christmas but they changed the name and are putting it out in June even though he (Affleck) wears a Santa suit," she said. Studios also have contingency plans if England are knocked out early in the tournament. A tranche of gangster films has been lined up, including the British Essex Boys.
[stuff on television...]
On the only two nights that ITV is not broadcasting football this month (June 18 and 20), it is relying on the hardy perennials of female pin-ups (Robson Green in Rhinoceros, Ross Kemp in In Defence) [now might be good time for TTOTS]******
Oh well, no mention of Colin, but how come we don't get those half-price movie tickets during the baseball or basketball playoffs?

Sorry about that double post, especially since I hadn't intended to post then, the FIRST time and have no idea how it happened.
My congratulations to you too, TraceyKaren, I was really intrigued by that photo of ODB at 1536. I don't recall seeing it before. Is it, by any chance, from 1919? Now, Dr. KJ would like to address the problems of this seriously unhappy man:
Dr KJ, I have many fears walking the streets of the city in broad daylight without wearing
really ugly, ugly clothes that I pick up at the local Oxfam store and some bizarre
rose-colored glasses that belonged to my sister when she was 13.
Not to worry. You are probably anxious that your personal comfort will be in jeopardy during your exercise. Take comfort in the fact that you wear NEW scruffy clothes instead of old ones, which will positively impress anyone who wants to speak with you during these outings.
The last part isn't a problem, but a preference ... you want to see the world through rose-colored glasses and there's no reason why you shouldn't some of the time, as long as you take them off while indoors or during performances and business meetings.
And then, every once and a while, I have a strange desire to smell coffee, but that passes quickly.
This is a natural attempt to counter the effects of the glasses. Being 'clever and articulate' requires that you be aware of the nature of the world around you, even if you don't necessarily subscribe to all of its ongoing changes in ideas and mores.
People seem to want me to make more of my talents, but I can't.
Ah, now this is a problem of self-esteem. Firstly, humility aside, you shouldn't think of yourself as unable to do this, but rather choosing according to present circumstance, which gives you the option of reassessing choices with every decision. Secondly, you sound as if you placed a greater value on other peoples' ability to define what is best for you, rather than you yourself.
I suggest that to bolster your self-esteem you repeat daily: "Every day, in every way, I'm getting better and better at being a clever and articulate actor". Soon you will notice that other people will see these qualities in you and remark upon them.
I find that Ralph Fiennes keeps beating me to the good roles.
Oh, my. It is a great mistake to measure our progress or situation against another person's, no matter how admired. The Commandment about 'covetousness' wisely addresses this serious weakness in human nature, which leads to unhappiness and discontent (in both oneself and in one's fans) if not kept under control.
Do you think these problems have anything to do with my horrible childhood and the rootlessness people talk about? Or was it the short pants I was forced to wear? Help me, Dr. KJ!!
If, when you interact with any given group, you have feelings of being an outsider or rejected, this does not necessarily reflect the reality of the situation. If part of your sense of your identity includes a natural status of being an outsider, then the feeling will automatically arise any time you are in contact with new acquaintances.
This originally may have arisen because of the difficulties you had in attempting to assimilate into any of the new surroundings in which you often found yourself. You must not accept this as a natural or inherent quality of your personality or identity, however.
The self-esteem exercises cited above may help with this impression, but any trouble of this kind is a form of self-delusion. It should not be attributed to any past experiences (which cannot be changed), but rather must be dealt with by recognizing the fallacy of the idea itself. This, in turn, will aid you in freeing yourself of these unwelcome feelings, and give you the ability to assess any situation rationally..
To help you see the biases you have been applying to your perceptions of reality, you might try, initially, to consult the perceptions of others.
I, for instance, can inform you that there is a large population of admirers who would crawl on their knees to Moscow for the mere touch of your nether lip. Your great charm, talents, and self-effacing manner will always assure your acceptance into all but the most biased of groups (usually due to the jealousy engendered by your being so clever and articulate and gorgeous and sexy ... and
.. Oh!, Ohhh! (****a crash and sounds of a struggle****)
(Dr. KJ has been disbarred...)

LOL KJ!! Again, you rise to meet the challenge. Is Ann Landers retiring soon? You gotta apply for that job or Dr. Laura Schlesinger's.

Late Again . . .
Warm birthday wishes to Lucie and Cathey
Karen, you are hilarious! And KJ loved your analysis!
Thought I'd offer a lurid Freudian perspective:
I have many fears walking the streets of the city in broad daylight without wearing really ugly, ugly clothes that I pick up at the local Oxfam store and some bizarre rose-colored glasses that belonged to my sister when she was 13.
Clearly I desire to ride y--, I mean, clearly you desire to ride your horse. You are afraid of the lurid sexual impulses beating in your, er, broad, chest, and so wish to appear ugly, scholarly, and pure (hence the fetish attachment to your sister's rose-colored! glasses). This is nothing but a form of defensive identification resulting from your extreme displaced hostility towards your characterization, Mr. Darcy, who you have come to loathe as bad , because he symbolically embodies your actual id .
I do not see any evidence of an incestuous attraction towards your sister however: That would be sick! (AND,is better left to the fantasy realm of film . . .as opposed to the real world of fan site psychoanalysts). I suggest you gratify yourself and your fans by stealing your Darcy clothes back from that costume museum and erecting . . .in Chinese Astrology, I am a Horse. . .the role, yes, I mean the role, once more . Ridin' a horse through the fields of England wouldn't hurt either!
And then, every once and a while, I have a strange desire to smell coffee, but that passes quickly. People seem to want me to make more of my talents, but I can't. I find that Ralph Fiennes keeps beating me to the good roles. Do you think these problems have anything to do with my horrible childhood and the rootlessness people talk about? Or was it the short pants I was forced to wear? Help me. . .
Nothing has to do with your horrible childhood, but rather the extreme repression of your unconscious sexual impulses which began in childhood and continues with each psychotic, witty, sardonic, and clever character role you insist on playing. You will never play really well, until you discover the latent meaning of your uncontrollable desire to smell coffee. The fact that you feel beaten by Ralph Fiennes (my oh my, what a giveaway!) would suggest that the coffee is really just symbolic of your longing to be recognized as your true id, the sex-God, Mr. Darcy. . .
... who smelled of horses, and carried a very spiffy riding crop, with fullblown phallic potential. . . some boots . . . I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten what I was saying.
Hmmm, oh yes, your revealing choice of the words "rootlessness" and "short pants" is a further indication that unless you bring Mr.Darcy into consciousness, free of all superego constraints, you will continue to defend against your sex-God impulses through an infantile expression of yourself in the form of mast**batory characters, whom you claim to desire to play. BUT, your sense of "rootlessness" clearly illustrates that such avoidance is really just a self-imposed emasculation of your true sex-God nature, as a defense against the sort of castration anxiety arising, arising yes. . .horsey, play horesy? whoresy?...where was I? Oh yes, arising from the fact that all men hate Mr.Darcy, and all women would kill to make him morning coffee before he wanders off in those tight breeches, riding crop in hand, to find his true horse.

Thanks for your concern, Evelyn. I make it a rule to avoid large gatherings. I will see the final in Umbria. It will be at our hotel in Todi, on a hill, overlooking a beautiful sunset, with a wonderfully cool breeze and D.O.C. grappa. The owners' son (v. handsome, BTW), sets a giant screen by the pool, some of his friends arrive from Rome and we all have a jolly good time. We did this 2 years ago for the World Cup too. Of course, if Mr. & Mrs. Firth showed up, I would have a v. hard time concentrating on the game. ;-)

Thanks Karen....Glad they didn't make" Sunshine" a German mini-series ...hard enough to see it now. Besides, I doubt RF would have appeared on German television.
Interesting to see that he's referring to "Jennifer Ehle, "The Real Thing"..."
dropping the P&P connection.

Moon, about tomorrow night, I want you to know that no matter what the outcome is, I'll still talk to you! LOL!
GO BELGIUM!!!
BTW, I add my congrats to Portugal. The game Portugal-England was the best game of the Euro Cup so far.

Thank you Tineke... Those guys did us proud.
I only saw a little of the first part of the Belgium-Sweden game, because I was working on Saturday, and missed the best parts.

Yes, she's moved on and achieved more; Lizzie will always be a signature role for her, but from now on she'll be referred to as "Tony-winner Jennifer Ehle." (Until the Oscar, of course.;-) If somebody we know wants to divest himself of association with a certain other signature role . . .then find a role that is at least its equal, as JE has done. And it doesn't happen by haunting the margins.:-(

Or...godferbid..another TV role.
Unless, of course,if it's a series...now there's a thought..."Cracker" or "Tutti Frutti"... and then he could be like Robbie Coltrane!!
Good characteractor does work in TV, films and stage. Hey, that's a goal to shoot for...;-)

(KJ) hAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DA BOATAYUZ
You from Brooklyn? Watsamattaforyou? :-D
Let me add my belated birthday greetings, Cathey and Lucie. Have we missed anyone else?
Alexander's session with Dr. Freud was too funny, Karen. Loved your response, KJ. Would also add this Rx: cross Upper Street at least daily.

Oh, I'm very, very late.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lucie!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Cathey!
Hope your birthdays were lovely.
Sadie, you had me rolling...
The fact that you feel beaten by Ralph Fiennes (my oh my, what a giveaway!) would suggest that the coffee is really just symbolic of your longing to be recognized as your true id, the sex-God, Mr. Darcy. . .
This opens up so many possibilities for analyses of all of Colin's characters (and so many could have used professional help). Can you just imagine Mr. Darcy himself on the couch? Reclining? Horizontal? Hmm, better not go there or at least take myself over to Darcy Drool.

Karen, you make dazzling postings that leave my html and pic-finding skills in the dust!
Found it v. scary that fellow droolers suddenly turned from serious pursuit of virtual lusting to discuss sports:Watsamattaforyou? Just bloody kidding. :-D
Moon, your trip does sound divine!
(Heide)Can you just imagine Mr. Darcy himself on the couch? Reclining? Horizontal? Hmm, better not go there or at least take myself over to Darcy Drool.
Oh Heide, you're giving me ideas! We need more people over at Darcy Drool too. *Hint,hint* It's been far too quiet for my id . (You're v. perceptive KJ, my id interrupts even the most serious analysis! :-D )
Marcia, when do I get a lei? Ah c'mon, do I have to wait 'til my b-day?
BTW,"Haunting the Margins" is just begging to be a fan-fic title! So go to it, all you authors who have been lazing about, depriving us of more drool experiences.

Pssst, Moon
I'm bussing it to Umbria (alone!). I'll be waiting for you, so be quick about it.
[Several days later]See you, right about...

Good morning, Karen, may I inquire as to whom I will be showering with? ;-)
LOL, Sadie! Of course, we can not expect a lower middle class chap to show up in an Alpha. I hope he fixes that bus soon. The game will be starting shortly. ;-)
Thanks, Mark! (We still do not know your birthday)
Marcia, you know I love to start the day with a lei. It is quite beautiful, thank you!
Now, back to the shower...

The referee:
What am I doing here? I should have watched it on a big screen in Umbria. Hmm...perhaps that's what I'll do for the final.

Pish-tosh! Does it really matter? Oh, well, here's a hint:
Click here and we'll sing *this* in the shower
(hope this works) If not, I've got another post-shower clue. ;-)

Oh, Moon, the opportunity of a lifetime (if you know what I mean):
Janeane Garofalo...will segue to the project after starring in the indie feature "The Search for John Gissing" for writer-director Mike Binder ("Indian Summer"), scheduled to go before cameras July 1 in London.

Thanks, Tineke! He is the cutest referee (a bit overdressed, though, 'Wardrobe to the rescue!') ;-)))

(Karen), Pish-tosh! Does it really matter?
Well... yeah! Have not been able to sing in the shower yet, but I hope to find either, CF, JN, DL or JP. I would be scared to take one with RE. ;-)

Jude, darling! You must go back to being a blond if you want to keep taking showers together. ;-)
Now who are you jumping on my bed? Alcohol units 10 v.v.bad and I still have the bottle of Dom Perignon!
