Of the deceased: Eleanor Roosevelt, Nellie Tayloe Ross, Gilda Radner, Mark Twain, and Julia Child.Of the living: Jimmy Carter, Dean Kamen, Dolly Parton, and Ellen Degeneres.Oh, and the person who invented the PEZ dispenser. UPDATE: The inventor of PEZ was Eduard Haas (1927). The word comes from the German word for peppermint (its debut flavor). It was sold as a cigarette substitute (Haas was an anti-smoking advocate). He imported the candy into the United States in 1952 at which time he packaged it in toy dispensers.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Harold and Maude and Best in Show both come to mind. Only go to the theater once or twice each year.
If it has been cancelled...I liked/loved it...and that included the Family Guy, but Stewie is back! Oh, and the short-lived series Wonderfalls (now available on DVD)! You'll love "Wax Lion"! In process of watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the BBC series Planet Earth.
I fall into the "information trap". There is so much information available to us as consumers. I am compelled to consume as much of it as possible. Consequently, a book is only half read when I want to start the next one. Recent reads include "Blessed Unrest" by Paul Hawken and "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver. Reading the Golden Compass...and have "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini in the waiting.
Who doesn't love a good sandwich?!
