@velshi.com It was mentioned in the 3rd hour of your show today that the cost of child care equals the after tax income of many employees. Something I have noticed is that women are working for benefits, while their husbands are self-employed or working at higher paying jobs that have no benefits.

#TCMParty I first saw this movie many years ago in a film course. I got why it was important historically and technically, but it made no sense and as a movie, it was simply weird. Now that I can see the whole movie, oh! It DOES have a plot! So it makes sense (increasingly so) but it’s still weird.

#TCMParty Drew Barrymore once said on a TCM interview that she likes the gentle touch with which John would pat Lionel or put his hand on his back.

#TCMParty This is such an inspired film. I always think of poor Jack Lemmon in The Apartment, sitting down at the tv to eat dinner and delighted to see it’s coming on, then gives up because there are so many ads.

#TCMParty I read the book this movie is based on years ago, and later saw the movie. I thought at the time that it was a pretty faithful rendition. The Titanic fascinated me because there was a woman in town who had lost her husband when they were a young married couple, and he was trapped. So sad.

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.
One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.
When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

#TCMParty Interesting - those 1915 evening gowns bear little resemblance to the dresses in Titanic and Downton Abbey. Or what I would have thought.

#TCMParty - I like the actors, I love that the brothers did this, I loved Michelle Pfeiffer - but it was too depressing in the end. Saw it when it first came out - then wouldn’t watch it again because I thought the ending was too depressing. It will be a while before I watch it a third time.

#TCMParty My Dad took me to see Lili when I was very young (in fairness he assumed puppets = children’s movie) and it scared the bejeebers out of me - but having seen it as an adult, it’s one of my most beloved.
