I couldn't stand them but now the more I hear them, the more I like them. On the way home from dinner at Sizzler, Chas played an ABBA CD and I've really grown to love this song.

The Academy Awards nominations will be revealed Tuesday. Those talented people who are overlooked should take comfort that some amazing performances didn’t receive Oscar nominations. And yet they stand the test of time. Here are a dozen oversights that baffle me: 1. Anthony Perkins in “Psycho.” Norman Bates is one of the best-remembered characters in movie history, [...]
