OMG, Joan Bennett was Morton Downey's Aunt???!!! Wooooo?(^%%

Also, you mentioned Lana Turner's 'remake' of Madame X. (Who was the original?) I've seen Madame X a couple/few times, don't really remember the mother character.

And....taking a roll from Greta Garbo! Whoa Nelly!

Thanks for the info!!

Thanks Midnite. They actually do.

Mostly, they're 'student/kids' books, some feature the 50 state quarters.

I don't believe I'd ever heard of Constance Bennett before these boards. (Perhaps I did, but never connected w/Joan.)

Did C.B have a usual 'genre' of films she appeared in?

Could some people name, what in their opinion, what 3-4 are CB's best pictures?

I don't suppose Constance & Joan were ever in the same film....?

Also.....do I remember someone mentioning a brother within the industry?

Thanks,

Patti

I can't remember if it was new in 2003 or 2004 (and, I may be off by one year).

I kept re-renewing a book about the 50 states.

I can't remember if it was chronological order (when each state became a state), or alphabetical order.

I *may* have posted a thumbs up type message.

Does anyone remember a book like this, again, from a little over 10 years ago?

I was almost positive a little over a year ago, I *thought* I found it on Amazon.

Where else can I look for a non-fiction 50 states book?

Merci beaucoup,

Trish the Knish

I believe these types of situations are where colorful bon mots are derived from.

One springs right to mind, "Money talks [Collins] and BS walks....  [santa_thumb]

And, besides colorful euphemisms, truth: "FIRST, get the PLANK out of your OWN EYE, then, when you can see, take the splinter out of someone else's eye". WORD!

Oh, I've 'had' (past-tense) good experiences (I believe my above post mentions a refund with no problems). Plus, sometime this year, I ordered a 2-movie pack of Bela Lugosi.
I emailed Amazon that I believed it was 'bootleg' (there was NOTHING on back, no Studio, year, etc), and they too credited me and didn't want me to return it.

I'm just so upset that I was promised 2 different things, and within 20 minutes, I was 'booted off the island'.

No follow through, no customer 'service'.

I received an Amazon GC from my sister. That, plus a couple of other GC + $$ Walt gave me, I went to Amazon; there was a new set for $301.
Score!

Not just yet.

I know this isn't the exact forum, but, I've praised Amazon plus told people when things are going for sale on Amazon, I hope this post will be allowed:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Below is a copy of an email I'm 'trying' to send Amazon.
On Tues., Dec 22, 2015, I received a GC from my sister.
This gave me enough (with other GC & money) to buy something I've wanted for years.
I saw it for $301.xx, put it in my cart, then started the long, arduous 'chat' feature; I did this because of (3) GC + bank account.
I was on the 'chat' for at least an hour + 1/2; finally, I clicked on the 'call'.
Immediately my telephone rang. I re-told about the above.
Your rep was very nice. He explained a couple of things. I told him since now I knew how much I needed to put in my checking account, I would. (BTW, believe 2 of my GC were currently applied to the one item in my cart.)
I asked him if he would please call me back at 2:30 est. I made sure he had both my home & cell numbers.
As soon as I returned from the banks (this was 20 minutes tops), I looked at my account, and the item had been deleted from my cart.
Now, it wasn't available anymore...the only one I could have was 250+ MORE.
The rep didn't call me back, so, I waited for a few and tried calling him. The rep who answered said he hadn't logged back on....she could send him an email.
Well, it's currently 4:21 est, no DVD set, no call.
Can you imagine how I feel? Since 10:30 this morning, just trying to buy an expensive gift.
I could tell you that two years ago, I had bought (2) Lumia 520s on a Tuesday, I saw them for approx. $20 less on Saturday; I called Amazon and they easily refunded the difference.
I went immediately to Face Book to praise Amazon.
The item was in my cart for $301. Part of it was paid; the other 2 GCs were being applied.
The rep assured me the item would NOT be taken out of my account because of the partial payment plus an Amazon rep would be able to see the other two going on.
Thank God for Social Media.
You stink. Your service this year specifically has plumetted. I'll make sure EVERYONE knows....
