A Discovery


Deer and Hyundais don't make a good combination.

We are in the process of dealing with insurance companies, car dealers, and the prospect of having to use our seductive charms to get to work.


We are endeavoring to get back to fabulosity sooner than later, especially since we've had so many delays in the past few months! In the meantime, if anyone knows where we can find a 1929 Isotta-Fraschini, liveried chauffeur, and handsome gigolo strongly resembling Bill Holden, please let us know.

MMisfit


No big surprise -- our last Mystery Guest was, of course, Marilyn Monroe on the set of The Misfits (1961).

Was ever a film more aptly named? Besides the doomed MM, it co-starred Clark Gable in his final film before his death, and the tortured Monty Clift, who (mercifully) left this earth a few years later. The screenplay was written by Marilyn's husband, Arthur Miller, originally as a present for his wife; their divorce was finalized that same year, and Miller soon re-married -- to a photographer he met on the set.
