And speaking of Marilyn Monroe, my Monroe aficionado buddy April VeVea has just published her book Marilyn Monroe: A Day In The Life and gave me a shout-out in the introduction. Whoohoo!
Monroe trivia - I've been re-watching MAD MEN (since I have a Netflix account now) and in the third season they mention Monroe's last movie "The Misfits" - one of Sterling Cooper's clients is concerned that her dog food company has falling sales thanks to the movie pointing out that horses end up in dog food.
