"The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of" ... Bogart, Shakespeare, The Maltese Falcon, Those Great Movies

Well, Everybody Else Is Doing It!

"You like me ... you really like me!"

No, I'm not channeling Sally Field.  Several of my movie blogging friends have inspired me to acknowledge and thank my followers -- I hit 50!  That's a well-rounded and respectable number!  It is such a compliment when someone likes my stuff well enough to be an official follower.  And the names are great!  You should arrow over their pictures and see some of the clever nom de plumes.  Thanks everybody!  I hope you are still enjoying visiting.  I just love having you here.

Aw, shucks, folks!  Ya shouldn't have!
But I'm glad ya did!

  5. Hey Becky, I hit 50 not too long ago myself. I told myself if I didn'r have 50 after one year I would give up blogging. I got there just in time. So you have to keep up your terrific blog too! Congratulations!

  10. You guys are the reason I love to work on this blog. If not for faithful reader/friends, it would just be me writing to myself -- personally fulfilling but BORING!

    Clara, Dorian, Dawn -- you brighten my day! Your blogs are very special to me, and always a pleasure to visit.

    Doc, I'M a follower - what more do you need? And stop correcting everybody's grammar! They'll probably come more often! LOL!!

    Christian -- I didn't make such a plan, but probably would have ended up doing the same thing. I'm keeping on, and you better too!

    Eve, you were indeed a charter follower!

    FlickChick, I couldn't help but think of "Field of Dreams" with your comment -- "If you write it, they will come..." LOL!

    Love you all!

  11. Forgot something -- Doc, you have chided me for being tardy with my sci-fi idea, and you are right to do so! I don't know what the block is, but I'll break through it! I promise!

  12. Becky, you know we like you, really like you and we won’t make you wait until you win your second Oscar (or in this case your next 50 followers) to say congratulations. I had to admit to Nate my failing to leave and respond to comments, but as a follower and reader I appreciate being acknowledged by a blog’s author and hostess. I enjoy reading your creative and entertaining essays, with a wide range of subjects and always of the highest quality. I especially enjoy your posts devoted to ballet, and the chance to learn the plural of nom de plume is simply an unexpected bonus (the proper usage of grammar should be a daily concern).

  14. Emmy and Rachel, thanks so much for stopping in and leaving sweet congrats!

    Gypsy, thank you so much, and don't worry about comments. I try to do that when I read other blogs, but sometimes there just isn't time. And you know, Doc and I are good friends -- I just can't stop myself from teasing him when I get a good opportunity! He wouldn't recognize me if I didn't!

    Yvette, thanks -- when I saw that the odometer turned to 50, I was really thrilled!

  16. Congrats Becks,
    I made you a beautiful cake with chocolate butterflies, sugar rainbows and it even played music but I dropped it on the way to UPS so you will just have to settle for a virtual hug and close your eyes and think of fancy cake.
    Your blog is fantastic and it deserves many follows and accolades.

  18. FilmGal, thank you for the lovely compliment! Makes me feel great. Hey, at the risk of embarrassing myself for not knowing, do you have a blog of your own? I'd love to visit!

    Page, thanks girl. I really appreciate the virtual hug, but I'd love to have the cake too!

    Ivan, what, are you from China! I know they eat cats there, but in Georgia too! *Shock* LOL!
