semeris My brother learned how to cook before I did. My mother taught me a few things but only after I had proven I wouldn't burn up during the process. My grandmother's baby girl of 5 years old was burnt from boiling water, caught pneumonia then died. When my mother...

semeris I see that your original post was made 10 months ago so I thought I'd ask if there's been any word of verification yet about a movie. I have been dying to see Good Omens made into a movie - it would be fantastic!

for starters....what's your favorite Loretta song?

hermysurveys @hermysurveys (11) • United States 10 Mar 07

I think mine would have to be "Van Lear Rose". I've been a fan all my life, but this song, about her Mommy, touches my heart. I love how much she idolized her parents!

semeris People have a hard time letting go. Death is so final and irreversible, and Elvis was so loved that his fans just can't let go of him. I agree with you though. People need to accept reality and let him finally find peace.
