Jimmy Stewart and His Poems | James Stewart

May I share some personal joy? If you watch Riverdale and enjoy Jimmy Stewart, will you let me know if it's a good fit?

He had joined the RAF at the beginning of WWIi before America joined. That is mostly what the movie will be - about his time as a combat pilot. He also filmed The Mortal Storm in 1939, which was about helping a Jewish family escape Berlin. I know how he would react to today's world. He was always the first to fight fascism.

Olivia Dade doesn‘t write stupid miscommunication challenge level: impossible. This pissed me off, probably bc it‘s EXACTLY what Lauren and Alex did in the last book, and I‘m tired of these 30yo people supposedly in therapy not talking to each other!! It‘s not that hard!!!

AnnCrystal Sweet family gathering 👏🏼🐝👍🏼🎁🐝💝. 2mo

KadaGul Family gatherings are always a great source of joy! No matter our backgrounds or cultures, we all have those family members who can be encouraging, a little annoying, chatty, or even full of compassion and understanding. It's what makes our time together so special! 2mo

julieclair This is lovely! 2mo

What Have We Here?: Portraits of a Life | Billy Dee Williams

pick

Now here‘s a man who had me swooning when I watched him in Lady Sings the Blues and Dynasty, cheering for Lando Calrissian in the Star Wars Universe & then bawling my eyes out during Brian‘s Song. Fans still mention his speech as Chicago Bear Gale Sayers. “This movie accomplished something special by getting tens of millions of people to see the humanity we all share.” What a versatile actor, singer, painter and sweet man…still suave at 88!😍🙌🏻

MemoirsForMe Tagging my football and Bears fan friends who may remember Brian‘s Song? @Lesliereadsalot @AmyG @KadaGul @RamsFan1963 2mo

TheBookHippie Yes!!!!!! 🐻💙 2mo

dabbe I taught BRIAN'S SONG to my 7th graders back in the mid-1990s. They all wrote Gale Sayers letters of appreciation, and he sent signed pictures to every student who wrote him. What a man. And Billy Dee nailed him onscreen. Adore him, too. 🏈🎵 2mo

MemoirsForMe @TheBookHippie Ditto! 🏈🐻⚾️ 2mo

MemoirsForMe @dabbe Wow! Your students sure had the coolest teacher! And how sweet that Gale Sayers answered all your students‘ letters. We need more role models like him these days. And you! 🙌🏻❤️🙌🏻 2mo

TheBookHippie @dabbe how lovely!!! 2mo

Lesliereadsalot Of course. I loved that movie! 2mo

PurpleyPumpkin Loved him in SW!🤩 2mo

marleed Billy Dee Williams🥰😍🥰 2mo

dabbe @MemoirsForMe And you! 💙🩵💙 2mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie He was such a gent. 💙🩵💙 2mo

MemoirsForMe @Lesliereadsalot I knew you would! Billy Dee and Caan spent time with the Bears while shooting the movie. Several players were extras and also cried during the big scene. Always fun to read about our Bears. 2mo

MemoirsForMe @PurpleyPumpkin Yes!!! 🙌🏻 His fave part was wearing the cape! 2mo

MemoirsForMe @marleed Agreed! 🥰 Now I want to see his movies again. 2mo

PurpleyPumpkin The cape was on 🔥! 2mo

Lesliereadsalot We‘re thinking about going to the game in Las Vegas at end of September! 2mo

MemoirsForMe @Lesliereadsalot What fun! You‘ll get to see our former LA Raiders. Las Vegas is much more exciting. 🎉 2mo

KadaGul Loud and only Loud ( skip proud since they have been nothing but a disappointment in past seasons), DA BEARS 🐻. I'm going to the Bills and Bears preseason game. I can't handle the regular season crowd. 2mo

MemoirsForMe @KadaGul How cool you‘ll be seeing our Bears in person playing the Bills! I‘m still hoping for a better season. How much worse could it get? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤞🏻🙏🏻 2mo

KadaGul Guys in the '70s and '80s nailed what real men should look like. These days, it seems like most guys look like muscle-bound kids who‘ve had way too many steroids. 2mo

James Dean: The Biography | Val Holley

I love Old Hollywood and especially James Dean. Came across this gorgeous pic of him and what can I say, he inspired me. 😬

Beautiful dreamer —
a misunderstood rebel
who left us too soon.

If You Would Have Told Me: A Memoir | John Stamos

bailed

I listened to 4 hours, eighteen minutes and thirty-two seconds of so-called humble bragging and I could not for the life of me continue. This is the first celeb memoir audiobook that I am bailing on.
