ART AND EYE CANDY

I didn’t dislike her on the one hand, but was never a fan on the other. In fact, I never did understand all the fuss made about her supposed beauty.

I’m referring to the late Elizabeth Taylor. 

Soon after her death, the Mail started running a serialized bio, excerpts from a new book.  Truth to tell, I found it very interesting. I didn’t think I would at first, but you know how those things work.  They catch ya with a headline and you start reading and pretty soon you’re into the story.

The papers here run stories that cover both open pages and huge photos and the intent of course is impact.  The type is pretty small though, so I often can’t go through all of something at one sitting and so I go back later. Usually though I forget it.

Well, this week the papers here published a photo of her never seen (they all said) before.  There was no way to avoid it and talk about impact.

I’m guessing, probably correctly, that many of you have already seen the only nude (so it’s claimed) taken of her. For those who haven’t, it’s pretty darn good.
And she was I suppose better looking then I gave credit for but hold on.

Still no Angela Landsbury or Ann Margaret at the same age, imho.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
