And, I was there

Sunday morning, watching an old movie, "She's Back On Broadway," there is a scene in the movie where Virginia Mayo is at the LA airport, with Frank Lovejoy.

I did my Navy "Boot camp" in San Diego, and after that, flew back to Ohio for a visit with family. I flew from San  Diego to LA, had a brief layover, was walking around, and happened to see them filming that segment of the movie. Big incident for a kid from Ohio, that was way back in 1952.

Dear Ann Landers

Dear Ann Landers


My husband has a long record of money problems.

He runs up huge credit-card bills and at the end of the month, if I try to pay them off, he shouts at me, saying I am stealing his money.

He says pay the minimum and let our kids worry about the rest, but already we can hardly keep up with the interest.

Also he has been so arrogant and abusive toward our neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us.
The few that do are an odd bunch, to whom he has been giving a lot of expensive gifts, running up our bills even more.

Also, he has gotten religious. One week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with people who say the Pope is the Anti-Christ, and the next he's with Muslims.

Finally, the last straw.

He's demanding that before anyone can be in the same room with him, they must sign a loyalty oath. It's just so horribly creepy! Can you help?

Dear Lost:

Stop whining, Michelle. You can divorce the jerk any time you want. The rest of us are stuck with him for two more years!
