A signature cackle? Hmm...I kind of like that. I suppose there are few worse descriptions.

As always we appreciate your support.

Well, getting into the 'Almost Purim' spirit -

cyberspace can be 'dangerous',

if anyone knows the 'real' author, please post,
Thanks!)

Thanks so much for your work, Jack.

And Ex -- enjoyed the link.

An e-mail from Naomi Ragen referred to a very moving article on the J-Blog: Doron: Story of a True Tzaddik. Truly inspiring.

Hello, Robert. You wrote the insightful comment "Colleen was smart about her career, but like so many young, inexperienced Hollywood actresses, when it came to men her choices were based on on gauzy, romantic notions that were limited to idealized Hollywood images. The hard work of marriage, and the importance of shared values were distant shores that for too many never entered the calculus of love and marriage. " I'd like to add : As it was then, so is it now - nothing has changed.

Jack:

Great cackle, very "Friday the 13th."

Exdem:

Thanks for the great link.

Joel:

Very true, one of the reasons I write my old Hollywood profiles is to remind people that history repeats itself in an endless cycle, in Hollywood and in geo-politics.
