Charles Firth
Maybe Charles Firth is related to Colin Firth. I saw him (Colin) on Jay Leno last weekend. Jay Leno asked him to sing his favorite ABBA song...well, since he was in Mamma Mia. Colin Firth refused. I was disappointed about that. Michelle Obama was on that episode as well. I thought she was delightful. I like her sense of humor.As for Mr. Charles Firth. Who could he be?Well, I'm not Read Full Story
Shane Bourne
I don't know who Shane Bourne is.I don't even know if he is a she...or she is a he. I always thought Shane was a male name, but then I learned about Shane Gould.Okay. Well, Lord Wiki says this Shane is of the male persuasion.I've actually seen his work. He's the host of Thank God You're Here. This should be a fun post because it will give me a good excuse to see more clips from that. I've Read Full Story
Jane Turner
Could Jane Turner be another Play School person? I'm wondering if I went through and added all of those people?Well, I'll go check and see.....Nope. She's not Play School.Lord Wiki says she's Kath & Kim. Well, she's not Kath AND Kim. She's just Kath.Baby Jane was born in Newcastle on 1 December 1960. For those who don't know, Newcastle is a few hours north of Sydney.Lord Wiki doesn't Read Full Story
Simon Burke
I think Simon Burke might be another Play School presenter. I say that because I may have seen his name yesterday when I was looking at Play School stuff.Lord Wiki's entry on Burke is kind of weird. He pretty much just lists what Burke has been in. There is also a birthday listed though. Baby Simon was born on 8 October 1961. So he recently turned forty-eight.I'm going to leave the TV Read Full Story
Lorraine Bayly
Lorraine Bayly.Who are you?Well, Lord Wiki says....She's an actress....and another person from a children's TV show.She was born 16 January 1937. Her half birthday is Tim's birthday. And Tim's birthday is her half birthday. Is that exciting or what?Lord Wiki doesn't really say much about Lorraine Bayly, so I'm going to head over to IMDb.Bayly's screen career began in 1966 when she started Read Full Story
Nathan Foley
Nathan Foley.Do I know who he is?No.I have no idea.I guess I'll go ask my old friend, Lord Wiki.Funny. There's actually two Nathan Foley's. One is a football player. The other works on a kid's TV show.Which one do you think I want to write about?I'll give you a hint. It won't be the football guy.And I love children's TV shows. My favorite right now is the new Electric Company.The show Read Full Story
Deborah Mailman
I'm pretty sure I know who Deborah Mailman is. With my luck, I'll probably be wrong though.I THINK she's an actress....and I think she's indigenous. She might have been on some popular Australian TV Show. Maybe a soap opera? I don't remember which show it might be.Let's go see if I'm wrong or right.Ah!I'm totally right. Awesome.She's my age! She's four months older than me. Her Read Full Story
Australia Won But We're Not Going
As I said in yesterday's post, we're Disney Vacation Club Members. What this means is...well, we're supporting one of America's most giant and evil corporations.It's fairly cool though. We bought a certain number of points, and with these points we can stay free on Disney property. No, it's not truly free. We put money down upfront, and we have to pay yearly dues. But this way saves Read Full Story
Jack and Dina in Disney World
Jack and I are in Disney World. Tim is joining us this afternoon.I feel so weird writing a post in the present. Lately, all my posts have been posted SEVERAL days after I've written them. But I'm actually going to post this one this morning.Anyway, I was just going to write about a few Australia-related things that we've encountered here.1. There's a food and wine festival at Epcot. They Read Full Story
Robert Moss
Robert Moss is another spiritual guru person. I think he might be the last for awhile. Tomorrow, I have an actress.I wrote about Moss before in this old entry because he had some part in how I become all obsessed with Australia. He was one of the catalysts.Moss is into dreams...something I've been interested in most of my life.I usually have pretty vivid dreams. I write them down almost Read Full Story
