Still a Mystery


Darlings, we had fully intended to reveal our latest Mystery Guest's identity this morning, but, alas -- Real Life and its encroachment on our time continues unabated. We will endeavor to satisfy your burning curiosity by Wednesday at the very latest; in the meantime, why not throw a few more guesses into the pool?

Be Our Guest

We're pleased to finally announce our award-winning Guest Panelists for this week!


On Monday, we will be visited by that delightful, cultured, witty star of stage and screen, Tony Randall - or, our very own delightful, cultured, witty FelixInHollywood of, naturally, Felix In Hollywood.


On Wednesday, we are thrilled to welcome that effervescent leading lady of Broadway, Miss Phyllis Newman - aka the effervescent askthecoolcookie of Doing Hard Time in Shaker Heights and Periodically Anachronistic.


Finally, on Friday, we are graced by the erudite, pear-toned presence of Martin Gabel, better known to SSUWAT readers as the erudite normadesmond, late of The File on Esther Zidel and, more recently, mitten drinnen.


We're so very excited to have this fabulous trio joining us this week! We're sure whatever they have in store for us, it'll be a lulu.

We Had the Craziest Dream

It started off, innocently enough (and, frankly, as many of our dreams do), with Miss Arlene Francis...


...who is chatting with Miss Dorothy Kilgallen in the CBS commissary...


...when they spy, sitting a few tables away, Jeanne Crain...


...who is lunching with Eva Bartok...


...except that Jeanne and Eva are dressed as pioneer women. They're whisked away from the commissary by wagon train, through the wildnerness, where they encounter Daniel Boone...


...who, in our dream, is portrayed not by Fess Parker, but Matthew McConnaughey.


Suddenly, we are wandering through the historical home of Daniel Boone, including a room where, a plaque tells us, he consummated an affair with Dorothy Dandridge.


Struck by nature's call, we search the museum for a public restroom, finally finding one and then realizing that we are barefoot! Of course, we don't want to pull a Britney Spears...


...so we leave. In the courtyard of the museum, we realize we left our pink cosmetic case (which we don't actually own in real life!)...


...and our Louis Vuitton Baikal bag (which we do) sitting on a bench.


Frantically, we search them to make sure nothing's missing, and discover a litany of missed calls on our iPhone...


...from our boss, wondering where the hell we are, and why we are late for work.

We blame it all on Arlene Francis, who started the whole bizarre mess.
