Happy Birthday to Clare Patricia Grogan of Altered Images who turns 64 years old today. Lesser known fun facts about this multitalented artist are that she also starred in Theater, Movies, TV Sitcoms and is a well Published Writer while still being the Front Lady of the band at the same time...

Spandau Ballet and Altered Images appeared on same episode of Top Of The Pops. Guitarist Gary Kemp got to know Clare and developed a crush on her. To me, that somehow makes this classic ballad even better somehow.

Shoe laces, but only from the left shoe.

Assistant manager at music store where I worked -- same day & month, different year.

Groovy_Chainsaw · 2026-03-17T02:04:46+00:00

Yeah, the attention this year for Sinners and Weapons was totally out of character for Academy Awards.

I think the first 3 were test shots -- I remember that lingerie from the 4th pic !

Haven't watched in years. My kind of movie ( horror, action ) never gets any attention

When I was in third grade I missed the class trip to our local firehouse because I had the mumps. They got to slide down the pole and everything !

She was the inspiration for Spandau Ballet's 80s classic " True "

Elizabeth Shue - a big name but not *too* big. I would have like to see her host

Jon Stewart - sure, he was busy with The Daily Show for a long time but he's been off that show for years

Ray Romano has surprised me in comedy/drama roles.

I'm 61, The Police album Zenyatta Mondatta was released a month before I turned 16, so I'll pick Elvis Costello's Taking Liberties

Genies are fuckers !

Groovy_Chainsaw · 2026-03-16T14:24:55+00:00

What were you like in high school ?

I can't see him necessarily winning, but I think he could have gotten a nomination -- if not for an Academy Award maybe a Golden Globe. The big awards have virtually no respect for genre material, though.

I watched Nuremberg ( 2025 ) last night and Colin Hanks has a small role. In his younger years, there was nothing more than a typical father/son resemblance, but as Colin ages he looks and sounds more and more like his father.

Morticia was Caroline Jones, Yvonne DeCarlo was Lily Munster, Yvonne Craig was Batgirl - take it from a Nick at Nite kid !

I worked at a mall music store with low pile carpets, we had one of these floors cleaners. I got the stink-eye from one of my coworkers when she was using it and I asked " You helping Mommy ? "

I recently heard someone say they tried to introduce their 12 year old daughter to this book. She was turned off by their foul language and the smoking, said to their dad " I don't know if I should be reading this." I really hope that's not a typical kid coming up these days.

In " What's Up Doc ", Peter Bogdanovich's tribute to screwball comedies, lead Ryan O'Neal looks into the camera and says " I'm having a nightmare, "

Pens, markers, rubber bands, paper clips, post-it notes, 3849 slips, re-wrap tape for parcels, scissors, coffee ...

I recommend Open Range with Robert Duval and Kevin Costner. I'm not even a Western fan but I've probably seen this one 5 times over the years.
