    Horses for courses. Loren was tops in the Continental League, and she could also act.

    Chaps, you should all bow down before the grace and beauty of Gina Lollobrigida.

    One glance and if your pulse wasn't racing it's because you had no pulse!

    Kind regards, always,

    Jim.

    There was a position at Dien Bien Phu with two prominent peaks. The French troops called them "The Lollobrigidas."

    Do you have a special pic of her that you particularly prefer, and who knows, it might just raise morale here among your fellow “members of the talk” (for lack of a better collective term of our esteemed society we have here).

    Dear Gina in action.

    Carried a knife as personal weapon of choice ever since she was once upset by Anthony Quinn's appendage (apparently!)

    Either that or she's staking a claim in a New England apple peeling competition.

    Man, those eyes, to die for!

    Kind regards, always,

    Jim.

    P.S. This picture made a great impression on me as a young chap.

    Absolutely!

    Though at my time of life I now find myself drooling over everything, porridge with salt especially.

    Kind regards, always,

    Jim.

    Everyone loves Bettie. My elementary school teacher was her classmate in high school. He was a little amazed at what she became after that.

    I haven't forgotten her. She was reportedly just a nice working class girl, made some rotten movies here and lived the rest of her life in L.A. Her chest caused her some serious medical problems late in life.

    Sorry to hear that Alan. Hoping that is a temporary layoff.

    Behind all the jokes and cartoons there is some real hardship going on out there. Best wishes!
