A few of you might know who Victor Fleming is....but not many of you.
Go ahead...google him.
Victor Fleming directed Gone With The Wind and The Wizard of Oz. That in itself is pretty cool, correct?
But the really cool part is that he directed them in the same year, 1939.
So what does this have to do with Fidal Castro resigning?
Nothing.
But it's kinda cool that Fidal was in power thru 10 US Presidents.
Two totally random pieces of information now forever linked together because I just linked them.
Victor Fleming > Fidal Castro
The power of the link = awesome.
ReplyDeleteWho's this Fidal Castro? Is that Fidel Castro's evil twin?
ReplyDeleteSpellCheckLad just showed up...
ReplyDeleteProbably a Cubin.
Better ded than red.
ReplyDeleteI HATE CHEW!
ReplyDeleteLittle known fact: Victor Fleming was actually the model for his cousin's character, James Bond.
ReplyDeleteCool, eh?
Ya made me think about movies with your Victor Fleming reference.
ReplyDeleteYa know what's cool? Fideler on the Hoof! Castro and his family get tired of pushin' Cuba around and decide to move to Miami and open a cigar factory. Ah, that last scene with Zero Mostel (who played Castro) on a jet ski smoking a cigar.
This is not to be confused with Fiedler On The Roof, a gritty documentary that captured a difficult time in the life of the beloved Boston Pops conductor.

Dear Sparkle,
ReplyDeletePepper biscuits? (Accurately pronounced "Peppa Biskits") Nope, can't say that I have. Will have to ask the husband if he has.
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteIf Fidel had sent people into space, would they've been Castronauts?
ReplyDeleteParty at my place tonight!
ReplyDeleteW.C. Fidel?
ReplyDeleteFidel Sassoon?
And hey, if Fidel will soon be out of office, does that mean that currently, he's still an inFidel?
Ah, yes, Victor Fleming and his cousin Ian... Not to mention Vic's kid brother Art (original host of Jeopardy) and Art's daughter, Olympic gold medalist Peggy.
ReplyDeleteSo tragic that they all perished that awful day that the Flemings charged headlong off a cliff and into the sea for no apparent reason.
HA! I like the cut of this david'z rantz jib.
ReplyDeleteI'm still convinced that Fidel wanted to be an outfideler--or somethin'--in pro baseball. I'm holding tight to that urban legend.
Hey, Sparkle, can you hand me a Band-Aid? I just cut my jib!
