Posted: 10/22/04 at 2:08pmOnly 17 to go. Make em count, girl.
I sing for myself. I sing when I want, whenever I want to, just for me. I sing for my own pleasure. Do you understand that?

Judy Garland was originally slated to play Annie Oakley in the film version of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN, but was fired due to EXTREME vocal problems and being overweight.
(There is a bootleg recording of her singing the score.)

Congrats to Bobby and Mary_Ethel !
You were both legends before the magic posting counter anointed you--but you can't achieve "Dame" status until Dame returns from wherever she and Zola snuck off to.
