Gloryfing ‘St. Pancake’

 

1. After reading this I did a ImDb search on Mr. Rickman - assuming he’d been out of work recently and needed the gratutious publicity. No joy. He’s been gainfully employed in the recent past so I can’t use that as an excuse for his apparently new-found political views.

   However...(offtopic)...I did find that he’s working on a new flick - Perfume: The story of a murderer.

   I cannot recommend this novel - by David Suskind (I think) - enough. It was a best-seller seemingly forever back in the 80’s or 90’s, and is stunning, and totally engrossing (pun intended).

   My 2 cents.

2. Seems an appropriate venue for this little work of art would be the International House of Pancakes.

3. You need to stay out of the way of that heavy equipment. It will make you flat every time.

5. Lisar,

   Sounds like you feel the same way about Rickman as I feel about Susan Saranwrap and her bedpost - Tim Rub-it.

   I feel your pain…

   But the novel mentioned is truly worth a read. After all, 1 spazillion NYT readers can’t be wrong. No, wait…

6. tom Gross (I think) is honoring other Israeli women named Rachel who were murdered by terorists. Pretty cool, if you ask me. St. Pancake is responsible for her death; anyone who stands in front of a moving bulldozer is an idiot.

7. My middle name-Rahel-is Rachel in hebrew.
   FYI
   BTW Lisa- I refuse to see ANY movie if:
   Whoopi
   Ed Harris(for his behavior when Elia Kazan got his lifetime achievment oscar)
   Jane Fonda
   or
   Danny Glover
   are in it.

   I’ve always found Rickman to be debonaire.
   alas now I must add to the above list:
   ALAN RICKMAN.

8. ...And her parents are moonbats too! what a surprise.  They are suing Caterpillar company, who made the bulldozer or backhoe or whatever it was, because they feel like somehow the company that made the machine is responsible for their daughter travelling halfway around the world to jump in the way and get flattened.  Gimme a freakin’ break.
