A Star is Born under a Bad Sign


Judy Garland
The Man That Got Away
Screw "Over the Rainbow." This was her greatest song as far as I'm concerned.

I wonder about something though: do women ever brag about the men that got away like fisherman brag about the fish they nearly caught? I mean, do they ever sit drinking with their friends then hold their two hands some distance apart and say, "You should have seen him, girls. He was this big!"?

(And it is way too early to be using three marks of punctuation together.)
Hits as of now: 7660

Speaking of Judy Garland, this week over at The Judy Garland Experience on Yahoo, they are featuring a recording of the 1998 Carnegie Hall salute to Judy. Lorna Luft sings and co-hosts the event with Robert Stack. other performers include Gogi Grant, Jerry Herman, Vicki Carr, Wesla Whitfield, Nancy Dussault, Jerry Maren, Bebe Neuwirth, Robert Morse, and others.
Everyone performs and offers up their memories or feelings about Judy.
Next week the second night of the concert will be posted (with a whole new all star line up).
And of course, the experience features all sorts of other aural rarities and treats.
The Judy Garland Experience is one of the largest and most exciting Judy Garland groups on the web. There is always an interesting discussion and game going on (some of the games even have good prizes). Our photo section features some of the rarest and most candid pictures of Judy anywhere, many of the taken by group members.
Please stop by and check out The Judy Garland Experience.

"You should have seen him, girls. He was this big!"?

that's standard conversation among my friends.
