Man, I certainly had never heard of Marilyn Monroe's agrophobia. That certainly would help to explain her chronic lateness on the set, and her reticence to come out of her trailer much too often. Where did you bump into that tidbit? Robert Mitchum was certainly an original, but he was a drunk, and often a prick himself on the set. He'd get bored or cranky or be too hung over. They say he liked to eat onions before doing love scenes just to piss off his costars; especially Jane Russell.
The Mickalino in GYPSY --what a concept. If you land the part, I promise to come and see you in the play. Melva always loves to go to live theater. I usually get bored or cranky, but if you were in it, hey I would be as delighted as a child at their first Fairy Tale Theatre production. Have you never performed in front of others? I thought you had been in a chorus, or a singing group of some kind. I applaud your adventurous spirit, and somewhere deep within the catacombs of my tender ego, I envy you both the time and the incentive to do some community theater. With my physical problems and voice problems, even after I retire, I would have a very hard time participating in a production. Some day as a lark I might audition for something or other. 20 years ago I auditioned for LION IN WINTER in Lakewood, and would have been cast as King Henry if I had not confessed to the director that I just wanted to see "if" I still had the "stuff". They did not see the humor in it. I still smile.
Glad you still have the last "formal" emails so that you can get back into the Trivia Groove. Don't forget to include the titty twister I set up for you in my very last email, to get from Tuesday Weld to Glenn Buttkus; that was a bone fide challenge, sir.

I know this is small potatos compared to your thesbian career but I am reading for a part in the production of "Gypsie" on Sunday at the Port Orchard Theatre and I am looking forward to something I have never done before, performing on stage! Details later! I want to get this to you befor you leave for the weekend and I will continue with our last format tomorrow which I have.
Kudos on Lockheed and I wish I was an onion ring in the cafeteria when young Mitch and MM first met there; Ah Kismet! What Mitch picked up on her was that she suffered from what we now call agrophobia which nails her to a tee and I will throw in with being very very naive and not the sharpest knife in the drawer with a border line sexaphobia but not Nymphomania. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER LIKE HER AGAIN! Mitch said the only guy i'm afraid to fight is Sinatra, because he knows how to fight dirty and they were the best of friends which Mitch didn't have many. The only actor I picked up on that he didn't like to work with was Kirk Douglas and he said that he thinks he is the worlds greatest actor, just ask him.
