I believe Jane that today the correct spelling is phat, phat, phat.

Yes, Jane, you did say, "Don't let anyone convince you to be in their movie unless they're paying you."

And I find that saying applicable to life in many ways...and WAY better than anything Dr. Phil has ever said!

A very wise person also called Dr. Phil the man who "states the OBVIOUS for the OBLIVIOUS."

See, I listen.

SOMMS, You are a genius.

Okay, Jane, I concede. You ARE phat, phat, phat.

But only if it's spelled that way.

OK DG-I'm going to try and type my answers to you before I leave for work. Five important voices to me are all artists in their ways. In no specific order and they may not even be my five most important but for now I can't think:

1. David Hockney-an artist whom I know but even if I didn't, he's an important voice. I had the good fortune to hear him speak about art and photography for hours and days on end. (this man loves to talk!) He knows what he's talking about. He's one of the most knowledgeable people on the subjects of Picasso and Matisse that I've ever heard, and his own art is strongly influenced by both men. His theories on photography are inspiring to me and led me to my most recent project- a show of my photo composites this past summer.

2.Federico Fellini-His ability to transport me into his world of surrealism, comedy and tragedy.

3.Tony Kushner-Angels in America affected me deeply, on the stage and on film. I don't even have to talk about the play in two parts-we all know its significance. But since I'm more of a film buff I have to say that the HBO film left me speechless. The many artists who made this flawless film couldn't have done it without the writing of this man.

4.Kenneth Lonergan-I'm just throwing his name in quickly because my favorite play after Angels is Lobby Hero.

5. Quentin Crisp-He's really a hero of mine. Here's a guy who couldn't care less what people thought of him with their ridiculous prejudices. This is exactly how I feel about myself. He was an "in your face" person who made total sense in his views of the world. it doesn't make for an easy life, as anyone who's seen films or documentaries about Crisp, and I relate-I'm not part of any mainstsream and it hasn't been easy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

OK, the art I like best-I'm more of a modern contemporary art lover than the old classics. I like Hockney, Howard Hodgkin, Warhol, Basquiat, Botero (fat fat fatterson) to name a few.

What I have on my walls are varied-my walls are practically covered! Vainly, I have several portraits of myself done by other artists and photographers. Unfortunately, I sold the piece that Hockney made of me. that's another whole story. oy.

I have a print of Botero, a Hockney poster, some work by local photographers, and of course, lots of my own work!

Congratulations, Jane!

Enjoy your day! It's a wonderful ride...

My question: If someone who had never been to New York were visiting you for a day, what would you share with them and why?

Posted: 3/14/06 at 9:56am

Thank you Dottie, I appreciate that very much. And for all you naysayers-I am fat. Phat is a compliment these days, in case you didn't know that, SOMMS!

And Miss P, it's only a real friend who will call it like it is! xoxox

[DG]

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:02am

jane - thanks for that. Now I really want to see your work!

[Jane2]

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:03am

Boobs-that's another one I want to think about. I'm off to work for a few hours, and when I come back, I'll have that answer.

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:06am

Totally intended with the compliment connotation Jane. I'm a fan!

[Jane2]

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:06am

Yay SOMMS-I love fans! thank you!

Jane has been around for TWO years but I only noticed her a few weeks ago and she always makes me smile.

I'm a FAN too!

Edited with Jane's corrections!

TWO years PJ, and I love fants as well as fans! (teasing you, xoxox).

YAY Jane! Congrats

Now your questions.

What, in your opinion, has been the defining moment in human history, and why?

Who were your heros when you were a child.

Are the Olympics still significant enough to spend the money involved, why or why not?

And MOST importantly, on french fries, catsup....or mayo?

Jane - Best wishes for a wonderful Cotd Day! I love your Bobbsey Twins answer. One of my favorites also. Did you also enjoy Nancy Drew Mysteries? What are some of your favorite childhood memories?

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:32am

Jane2, Question: Career wise - if you weren't in the line of work you are currently in, what else do you see yourself doing (could be a fantasy job, too)?

[beacon1]

Okay, here are my questions:

1. Favorite sandwich filling?
2. What will your epitaph say?
3. Favorite name for a boy? For a Girl?
4. What drew you to the Off-Topic board?
5. Favorite makeout place in highschool?
6. Besides the Bobbsie Twins, what other book series did you
enjoy reading?
7. Favorite Bela Lugosi role?
8. Last theater production you attended?
9. What did you eat for breakfast this morning?

Hey Jane2 - hope you have a wonderful celebrity day! Your posts alawys make me laugh. So - a big FAT, PHAT congrats to you. Enjoy!

I hardly ever ask questions here - because by the time I get in, all the good questions are asked already! But hey there's a first time for everything so...

What is your favorite comfort food, for when you could care less about fat and calories...?

Congrats, Jane!

Posted: 3/14/06 at 10:53am

Yay, Jane2! Or should I say "Just Jane?"

...The ONLY Jane, not "Jane II" or "Jane: the Sequel" or even "Jane On Ice."

All of these sound better than "Plain Jane," though. I'd ask you a question now, but you have your hands full with so many others! You'll be here all day, already.
