Jean Simmons Tribute by Ocean

Jean Simmons, the mesmerizingly brilliant actress of many of the finest movies ever made, has gone from this plane, but for the wonderful films she has left us.

I could not help crying.

Not only do I adore her in every role I've ever seen - and yes, I may not know the names of any current actors or actresses, but I, a constant TCM viewer, know all the real stars - but I know someone personally whom she has helped in times of need.

She is - was - as noble a person in real life as were the heroines that only she could play, like Varinia, the wife of Spartacus in Kirk Douglas' pivotal film, Spartacus.

Were you aware that all the filmmakers had chosen Spartacus as the best film ever made?

I hadn't known that when I, as a child, had selected it as my favorite of all time, and it still - largely due to the timelessness of Jean Simmon's enchantingly haunting portrayal of the slave heroine - stands as the very best ever made.

If you've never yet been lucky enough to have seen one of Jean Simmon's great films, do so now, and experience the agelessness of time, the irreplaceable aspects of otherworldliness and femininity that she brought effortlessly to the screen, and to film history.

A generous person in real life, she exuded qualities that we would like to think had applied to some of our beloved historical figures. Whether or not the reality fit the glamorously beautiful ideal that Simmon's portrayed or not, I'm sure the actual historical heroines would have given everything just to look like Jean Simmons, and Spartacus, who in actuality did not, or at least we don't know, have a wife, but if he had, he would certainly have won that revolt just to be able to be with someone so divinely gorgeous and regal.

Rent Spartacus and go back in time as you fall into instant belief in romance, heroism, and tragedy as you watch the unforgettable Jean Simmons.

Below is from the Daily Telegraphs' Homage to Jean Simmons:

"As writer and film historian Alan K Rode said when her agent announced she had died on Friday at her Santa Monica home after a long illness: ''Jean's jaw-dropping beauty often obscured a formidable acting talent...

Terry O'Neill, the celebrity photographer, pictured Ms Simmons many time in the heyday of her career. ''She was a stunning beautiful young woman and a lovely, lovely, gentle lady,'' he said. "The camera absolutely adored her and she had tremendous patience. The thing that always stuck in my mind about Jean was her dignity. She belonged to that illustrious band of British actresses who were utter stars and were so very ladylike. Her death will bring great sadness to her many fans.''

From a nice film tribute to Simmons:

"It is debatable whether any actress ever portrayed a better combination of strength and vulnerability than Jean Simmons. The beautiful British-born actress got her start at age 14 and, like Elizabeth Taylor and Natalie Wood, dazzled from the beginning, landing her first big role as young Estella in the best screen version of Great Expectations in 1946."

Sky Saxon and Arthur Lee - R.I.P.

I can't believe I just heard of Sky Saxon's transcention - I'll use his own beliefs, since he was a truly cosmic soul and a huge force, as was Arthur Lee, in music.
All our music.
From the mid sixties, these two giants weren't household names, but both were pivotal in the ovement music took.
Simple turns of fate brought both of these remarkable talents to less-than-famous paths and weirdly, both died while in plans for new come-back tours.
In case you're either too arrogant, if you're musicians, to look back and to know the originators of the music we all play now or in case you're not into music, Arthur Lee was the lead singer and guitarist of Love and Sky Saxon was the leader and singer of The Seeds.
Look up their music, and, in the case of Sky Saxon, who was a fruititarian and an advanced soul, his life philosophy.
Both very cool icons who deserve to be applauded posthumously.
And I think they'll both hear us.

It's so manic, the internet.

Compulsively expressing ourselves - millions of us.

And with Twitter - it's moment-by-moment, mood, just tiny phrases-ful of notions - and it's quite addictive!

It seems we can all be summed up in tiny sound-bytes.

Just a nuance, a nano-sentence needed to sum us up.

On Twitter, only a sentence to sum up one's whole self - one's life.

Fragmented, shattered, streamlined, and that's what we all are - in the end, at least - on our tombstones, if we're lucky enough to have one - it might read only stats, like name, and dates between which we'd once existed.

Meanwhile, we live between the fragments flung outward into the internetted abyss for whomever to view, to care, to share, observe, judge, like, dislike, follow, take up, drop, commiserate, and so on - but mainly in order to self-promote.

Everyone's selling something, even if only ideas - peddling maybe only thoughts - like bubbles - popping off to no one and to everyone at once.

Who's listening? No one. We're all too busy expressing ourselves.

It seems.

It's a Dark Day In America - Human Birth Rates Top Record

Human Overpopulation Becomes Even More Unmanageable

Today is a day of mourning.

Mourning for all the people who will die as a consequence - most of them children, babies, for the places that will become deserts due to tree-felling, for the water, now clear, that will soon become rank. Today, the announcement has come that human overpopulation in America has reached the mark of that of the height of the baby booming year of 1957, meaning that we are now, officially, spiraling very quickly downward toward hellish life conditions and world destruction - UNLESS - and only unless - most start to opt-out of breeding. I have. I have taken the Child-Free Pledge to stay child-free and/or adopt. I can't understand why we, at this point in our history, are not, if not outright ostracizing and even throwing things, at least draping the homes in black of people who choose to have more babies in a world that is overrun by human overpoulation already.

In a world where most children starve every day of their lives worldwide, suffer untold misery in their short lives, and wish that someone in a developed nation would adopt them.

This is so sad - sad for us - if you think you feel crowded now, look out - watch as every year churns out even more drivers on the road, even more self-centeredness, even more desperation, even more rudeness, and all the other negatives that overpoulation always brings.

Get ready for dire weather warnings, due to the turmoil of ever-growing, ever-advancing stampedes of people grabbing land, tearing down trees, and spoiling the waterways - after all - our planet is our only nest, and you know what you're not supposed to do in your own nest, right ?

But just being alive is going to make sewage, make despoilation, make pollution grow.

And one child in a developed nation usurps the energy and resources that literally thousands of children use up in undeveloped nations.

So do not rejoice when you hear of someone's pregnancy.

Ask them instead, "How could you? Are you really that uncaring a person ?"

Then ask them, "Do you have ample - and I mean very ample - resources to keep that child in case you can't work, die, or break up with your support ? Because why should we- as a society - pick up the check for your unbridled selfishness ?"

Then ask your government - "Please take out tax penalties on people who breed. "

And get active.

Stay child-free if you are so lucky.

Date only those guys who are cool enough to get a vasectomy.

If you do make a mistake, own up to it. Do the right thing. (Don't think of abortion - let someone adopt your kid.)

Use at LEAST two forms of contraception at all times, and do not drink while on a date. Stay lucid.

And adopt by all means, if you can or if you feel a need to parent.

And wake up others to the realities of life now - not of life two thousand years ago !

Thinking of having a baby ? Read ChildFix first and take the questionnaire.

Think of the world as o ne household. The house is small, the income fixed, and they cannot move. The family already has a child, and cannot feed another, and yet they think of having another child. Either the quality of life will suffer and each will have less food, they will put o­ne out to starve, close the windows, and not heed his cries, or -  they will do the kind thing, the spiritual thing, the sane thing and stop having children.

AND - By the Way - Are you aware that we who do not have children are in the majority ? That means we, the Child-Free, are a potent political force.

Let's combine and create some law changes !
