Unfortunately, Sam, we all have suffered the sad consequences of that day's horrific events. I so regret my country's over-reaction to the nihlistic terror attacks of six years ago. Such grief and woe!

Every day, to myself I say,
Point the way, what would it be?
I ask myself what's the best thing for you,
And myself and I seem to agree,
That the best thing for you would be me. ... :)

I was just a little kid when Grace Kelly died, but later discovered her work watching Alfred Hitchcock movies.
She was his ideal 'cool blonde'. (As it is, Dial M for Murder and Rear Window are among my favourite Hitch movies.)

Amazing it's been 25 years...

Steve Greenlee: Ali Larter, the actress who plays Niki on the show (Heroes), could be your twin sister. She looks just like you.

Diana Krall: Poor thing.

Grace Kelly was truly a classic beauty. Strikingly beautiful, elegant and, well, graceful. Swanlike.

Hello everyone. I'm the new boy. I am previleged to be a part of this great group of people on this forum.

I would like to add Audrey Hepburn to the list here (born Edda Kathleen Hepburn-Ruston - May 4 1929-Jan 20 1993) :angel: What an incredible actress she was. Apparently, her face was perfectly formed. She had the screen presence of an angel and she graced it like a swan.

This is Jonathan signing off till next time. :D
Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain? You were going on your way now you've got to remain.
