years? Telling, isn't it?
2. These "lists" where you have to click from page to page are
becoming increasingly common on news websites (like Time) because
instead of listing them on one or two pages, they force you to be

to attact calvin that they instead come off looking like completely ignorant
fools. You two really need to take a moment to breathe before you respond
to any calvin post...and then avoid responding at all if all you have to add
is pointless and incorrect commentary.
The issue of the wording of this particular line in GwtW has been going on
for decades and there is nothing pedantic about calvin replying any more
than it was pedantic for moviepig to offer up a link to the actual scene.

Also, 'Stella By Starlight' is from the 1944 film, "The Uninvited"
with Ray Milland and Gail Russell as Stella. Russell had a tragic
life - started drinking on the set of "The Uninvited" to ease her
paralyzing stage fright and lack of self-confidence. She died a
premature death.
Music by Victor Young, but the lyrics were not written until several
years later by Ned Washington. Of course, they had the title of the
song from the film, but that's all. Young was a prolific composer for
the screen; you might remember the grand score from "Shane".

Hitchcock posts as a person who has no idea who you are or what you have
done in the past. But reading these posts most certainly puts you at the
front of the list as a Calvin stalker, a William sycophant and one who does
not know the meaning of the word lie. a prevaricator, not one who is
resting.
I may be the only one who thinks like that but I would suggest that you
ignore Calvin and his posts because his posts upset you so much. That would

To suggest that calvin and/or his posts upset me implies I have some

calvin. He's as speck;a pimple on the ass of Usenet; one grain of cat
litter trying to absorb cat piss... he just doesn't matter. You also

calvin to try to dictate what feelings I can and can't have is a sign
of someone who needs serious mental health therapy.
Moreover, you apparently haven't noticed when calvin tries to regulate
who can and can't participate in threads here. He's a control freak
and wants to censor what's said by others in threads.
Don't shed any tears for calvin... he's about as far from an angel as
any of us here.

Why do I, a guy in the humble and sensible Midwest, understand
William, a guy from brash and cocky NYC, better than most you? I don't
see William's posts as "going ballistic." He's straightforward and
doesn't suffer fools and their bullshit easily.

I watched the beginning of it, but then turned it off.

> based on the follow-up book (should never have been written) Scarlett?
Similarly with the book; I read the beginning of it
in a bookstore, but never read any more of it.
The book had sort of an interesting beginning, with
Scarlett at Melanie's funeral, wanting to go back to
Tara but unable to leave yet.
I did read the whole book, 'Rhett Butler's People', a
few years ago, and liked a good bit of it, but very
much disliked some of it, especially the last section.
It had an interesting concept, in telling Rhett Butler's
story, including where it intersected with Scarlett's
story. There was a lot of room to do this, since
Rhett and Scarlett were apart for most of the time
before they were married.
Neither book had anything to do with Margaret
Mitchell, though, and the Mitchell estate should never
have authorized them, in my opinion.

something that (Roger Zelazny??) said when someone told him that a
movie ruined his book - he pulled out his book from the shelf, and
responded that his book was just fine there.
The Mitchell estate got some money - and it didn't hurt the quality of
Margaret's book one bit.

The movie might have been better if it were not a sequel, but rather a stand
alone story. Ditto the book. I really feel what happened to GWTW was wrong
(a sequel not OKed by the author) - but then if the heirs or whoever holds
the copyright oked it, then that's that.
I feel the same way about the folks that want to add Reagan to Mt. Rushmore.
Giver him his own statue somewhere else, but don't infringe on the work of
another artist.
alone story. Ditto the book. I really feel what happened to GWTW was wrong
(a sequel not OKed by the author) - but then if the heirs or whoever holds
the copyright oked it, then that's that.
I feel the same way about the folks that want to add Reagan to Mt. Rushmore.
Giver him his own statue somewhere else, but don't infringe on the work of
another artist.

What's the problem?
You either want them to communicate or not.
Whatever software you are using, It must offer some way
of selecting and deselecting posts by sender.
Stone me.

Liar. You criticize me and others frequently for jumping into threads.

forgotten the multiple times I;ve defended you against those who have
called you a racist.

yourself as the true stalker.
Finally, if you want to call me a stalker for responding here, so be
it. Had you told even a half- truth in your post, I would have ignored
it completely. So here we are, once again, with you trying to "have
it" both ways.

like, but without the personal attacks?

You, of course, and a bully too. Encountering you has been a
great misfortune, but there's nothing I can do about it except
act on the advice I've been given. You're not worth the time
of day. Say whatever false, misleading, or mean things you
like; as usual. I'm finished with you, and free at l;ast.

It's from a 1996 film, and the quote is, "It's a very plum plum."
Time flies like an arrow.
Fruit flies like a banana.
