"Looking like a writer" to Jack Rollins doesn't mean you couldn't play the part of a writer in a play or movie. Does it? I know nothing about this, of course. I'm just a guy who gets excited when he gets a chance to play in a band with professionals for a Valentine's Day dance for an after school program.

Ditto the "I" in IBDB - the Internet Broadway Database.<br /><br />IMDB was created by a couple of students in Cardiff, then commercialized when the Internet was opened to commercial traffic in 1994. Amazon bought it some years later. But anyway, the point is the "international" was built in from the start. It was the Internet bit that was unusual.<br /><br />wgWendy M.

I know that you say you are not proud of Cannibal Girls but it counts as a role in IMDB and keeps popping up in your posts. You were in a movie for God's sake! How many people can say that? <br />And, although a day late on the Valentine's post the most amazing part of that story is that you can still recall events from Grade 1. Even names of fellow students and your teacher. For someone with my limited powers of recall this is an amazing feat. You probably even know where to find your car keys.FFShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12957594809079628577noreply@blogger.com
