Marilyn and Judy Garland at The Golden Globes, 1962.
Judy said this about Marilyn, which broke my heart :(
“I knew Marilyn and loved her dearly. She asked me for help - ME! I didn’t know what to tell her. One night at Clifton Webb’s house Marilyn followed me from room to room. ‘I don’t want to get too far away from you, I’m scared,’ she said. I told her, ‘We’re all scared. I’m scared too.”
Marilyn’s funeral song was “Somewhere over the rainbow” By Judy Garland.
Judy said on Marilyn’s death:
“I don’t think Marilyn really meant to harm herself. It was partly because she had too many pills available, then was deserted by her friends. You shouldn’t be told you’re completely irresponsible and be left alone with too much medication.”
Ironically but tragically, they both died of a Barbiturate overdose, Judy in 1969 at the age of 47.
I just tried using Liam Neeson's speech from the movie 'Taken' to get free overnight shipping on a package from Amazon.
- Amazon Customer Service Rep: Sir, we're very sorry but your package won't ship until the 16th of September unless you upgrade your shipping.
- Me: I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for overnight charges, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my package go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.
- Amazon Customer Service Rep: I'm sorry sir, but you're going to have to talk to my sales manager.
