Somewhere, Over the Rainbow?

I watched The Wizard of Oz on tv this weekend and for the first time realized just how amazing that movie really is. How perfectly cast is it? Tell me you don't want to marry a guy just like the Tin Man (post red plastic hearty-mabob transplant). And the witch? So scary. Remember how much you wanted to be Dorothy? (I'm talking to you, gay men) And the munchkins. The Munchkins!

After the movie they had a short interview with a woman from Filmaid International. I'm really into this thing, you guys. They travel to refugee camps across the globe and show films like The Wizard of Oz to people in the camps.

I know...food, water, love... all that is desperately needed. But imagine living a life of solitude and sadness and then one day seeing Oz. Imagine the psychological benefits. Imagine how much joy it brings! So I donated to the organization and I think, if this is something you find as heartwarming as I do, you should too.

Glennis-isms

Clair Stare (v) - Derived from the fabulous Clair Huxtable's show-stopping stare. As powerful as any words, fist or bullets and twice as effective. "Piss slowly dripping down his leg he knew at once that his airplane hijacking attempt had, once again, been thwarted by the Clair Stare."

Out-Regis-and-Kelly (adj.) - Used to describe someone's fabulous, sparkly outrageousness. "Not sure if the girl in front of her had fallen or begun a strange, errotic dance, she chose to classify her as out-regis-and-kelly."

Out-Regis-and-Kathy-Lee (adj.) - Used to describe someone's slightly off-putting, drunken or outdated behavior. "The party took a turn for the worse when they arrived and, in truly out-regis-and-kathy-lee fashion, upper decked every bathroom in the house."

Prrrthetic (adj.) - Used to describe a pathetic action that, somehow, ends up making you look adorable. "The prrr-thetic attempt to get him back fell short when the aerial photo of his face made out of cats was overexposed."
