I really do need to give that one another try, Bebop. It was sooo long ago, and I think I saw it on a "date". Was probably distracted. LOL.

Thank you, Deb. We were going to watch Sgt York last night, Nettie was touching up her power point for her dissertation defense Tuesday and I was pressed into service. I ended up alternating between the NCAA basketball tourney and Under The Tuscan Sun, which I've seen perhaps six or seven times. It's that ol' Italian connection doncha know. My brother's alma mater, Siena, pushed big bad Ohio State to double overtime and won the game. My alma mater, Butler, lost in the first round. And so it goes... Smile.
