I'm around. I'm watching yet another silly musical. (Take Me Out to the Ball Game. Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra as old-timey ballplayers, who also sing and dance. And Esther Williams as a sports reporter (I think -- I haven't been following it too closely) who spends most of her spare time singing and swimming.)

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Don't all ballplayers sing and dance? Has Damn Yankees led me astray?
That's quite the...depth to her character.

I'm getting the pig!
I only got to hang with Sean and S for about an hour, but S does indeed rock.

I just realized -- she's not a reporter, she just bought the team.
And now Frankie's singing to her.

Ah. Yes, a reporter might be a bit much. This way, she just has to have money (which would probably also help with the singing, and swimming)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
And people dislike musicals for being "unrealistic" ::pfft::

And Gene just climbed what looked like two stories worth of Victorianish gingerbread trim to talk to her. It was impressive, especially since he managed to do it without messing up his suit.
Oh! During the off-season, Gene and Frank have a vaudeville act.
Hmm. Training food: steak, spinach, mashed potatoes, and several milkshakes. Frankie's trying to gain weight, I think.

Observation: when people in the '40s wanted to sound old-timey, they pronounced rodeo (as in, the place with horses and stuff) as "ro-day-oh." This is at least the second movie I've noticed this in.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think that's how they actually pronounced it in the 40s. It's still how you pronounce Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.
Sort of like the older pronounciation of Los Angeles with the hard "G."
