bald

Could you tell me, who is that
man over by the punchbowl?
That fascinating man, that oddly
sensual man. That man who
makes me quiver under my bodice.
That bald man.

-Debbie. Addams Family Values.

Tom

Having lived in such male-oriented societies
for the formative years of his life, it was hardly
surprising that he was now making up for lost
time, as far as the ladies were concerned.

Baker

His female fan following was huge, and there
were always women throwing themselves at
him wherever he went.

moment

A special connection passed fleetingly between us;
and then he was gone.

humanity

I smiled back, feeling completely and utterly diminished
by this simple act of kindness from a small person who
was undoubtedly steeped in poverty, but rich in humanity
I had hitherto had no inkling of.

Mary Tamm. First Generation. Pg 36.

contract

"nudity as agreed by the actor and director".
The most important eight words in a contract,
in my view.

bliss

Incredible to think now, with the media dominating our
lives at every turn, but a true case of ignorance being bliss.

sounds

There is a very fine line between what sounds
authentic and good, and what sounds merely
cod and, therefore, dire.

aries

I was bored, the shopping could wait and, like
the typical Aries I was, I was up for adventure.

part

In my tale, in which I played a innocent virgin
called Ginny, my mother went mad when she
learned that I had been cooked and eaten a
Hawaiian Luau, or feast, in which she had
participated. Yes, an everyday story of simple folk.

Mary Tamm. First Generation. Pg 73.

prayer

I collapse into giggles and ring off, ready for bed
after a long and eventful day. I say a quick prayer
of thanks for not having my throat ripped out by
a dog, add a "please let me be alive in the morning",
pop an antihistamine for the mozzie bites, and drift
off, promising myself that I will never slag off again.

Mary Tamm. First Generation. Pg 62.

anger

I'm seething with impotent anger.

prison

I bleakly envisage visiting her in prison.
To my surprise, she is waived on her
way with a smile and no questions asked.

Mary Tamm. First Generation. Pg 59.

giggles

I was suddenly overcome by giggles,
so mindlessly inane had it become.

Mary Tamm. First Generation. Pg 48.

I'm an American.  I don't share your
English hatred of comfort.
