Joe Smith म्हणाले...: She must have needed her pool resurfaced (not a metaphor).

Maybe that's how she stayed so thin...it's never worked that way for me...; १५/४/२३, १२:३८ PM
JAORE म्हणाले...: "Oh black water, keep on rollin'"

The power of the dollar. Instant decaf flavorful? Sure, sure.; १५/४/२३, १२:५८ PM
robother म्हणाले...: Ahh, the old Mid-Atlantic accent, prominent in mid-century sophisticated movies. Katherine Hepburn. Bacall. Cary Grant. Gregory Peck. Could have become the American equivalent of Oxonian English, but...TV happened.; १५/४/२३, २:२५ PM
lonejustice म्हणाले...: I don't drink coffee in order to wake up. I wake up in order to drink coffee.; १५/४/२३, २:२८ PM
Earnest Prole म्हणाले...: That white bitch is all hopped up.; १५/४/२३, २:३५ PM
Iman म्हणाले...: Flavah Flav done done her…; १५/४/२३, ३:०५ PM
Mike of Snoqualmie म्हणाले...: My wife has switched to decaf coffee. It allows her to drink it in the afternoon and savor it instead of trying to guzzle it down before 2:00 p.m. She grinds beans for a French press with a nice coffee grinder, not one of those whirly blade grinders. That way she gets a consistent grind. Turns out she bought the same grinder model that I've been using for years.; १५/४/२३, ४:१० PM
Rollo म्हणाले...: Betty's instant coffee was awful, but at least it probably wasn't fatal, like Bogie's unfiltered Chesterfields were.; १५/४/२३, ५:१० PM
wild chicken म्हणाले...: "the old Mid-Atlantic accent"

I read that it was totally fake, a vaguely hightoned stage accent that every actor could turn on and off as needed.; १५/४/२३, ५:५७ PM
Narr म्हणाले...: I drink four or five cups of joe a day. We make half-caff at home, and I usually try to get half-caff at my usual stops if I'm out.

Enough coffee is a wonderful thing; too much is too much, and I have to stop by 2pm or so.; १५/४/२३, ६:४० PM
Drago म्हणाले...: "In between my 17 cups of coffee per day I like to smoke at 3 cigarettes each time to get that smokey voice that attracted Bogie in the early days...." even though that didn't last long due to Bogie's smoking and subsequent cancer.

Bogie was the love of her life and they only had 14 years together. Bogie died at 57 and Bacall, ironically, lived another 57 years after Bogie's death.; १५/४/२३, ७:२१ PM
Rollo म्हणाले...: I always wondered what it must have been like for second hubby Jason Robards Jr; १५/४/२३, ८:२० PM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: I read that it was totally fake, a vaguely hightoned stage accent that every actor could turn on and off as needed.

That’s how Orson Wells sounded I believe you’re correct.; १६/४/२३, ५:३६ AM
Rusty म्हणाले...: There are a lot of happy, outgoing, ebullient people in the world.
They are alive today because, coffee.; १६/४/२३, ७:३४ AM

Marcus Bressler म्हणाले...: Take this as you may: a high school GF, whom I took to Senior Prom, became a very successful Hollywood agent with a major agency. Three of her biggest clients: one was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor (she accompanied him and his wife to the Awards), one won one for Best Actor, and the last one, dabbling in both streaming and movies, won three Emmys. She once told me of her disdain for Lauren Bacall; I don't remember why she developed a dislike. But my former GF and a lifelong friend used to be a good judge of character (and, amazingly, of great talent), so it might have been in encounters with Bacall in one setting or another.

Zev म्हणाले...: What's deep and rich is that old-timey mid-Atlantic accent; १९/४/२३, १२:४८ AM
