    I was reading IMB placed Katharine 1st and Bette Davis second for best actress ever. Do you agree?

      Hmmmmm! How can they rank actresses like that? I guess what I think is that their styles were so different it’s hard to compare them. Maybe it’s like trying to rank artists, like Monet or Manet, and what about Degas? I couldn’t do it.

    Such solid advice. If we can still laugh, we can get through so much…

    I love the way she told everyone what to do… and they did it. And they still liked her, (as she said in “The African Queen”) “nevahhhhhtheless”!
