The Conception Of Liza Minnelli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                         I know, girls, I know, but it is something that has to be talked about.  And since Liza is about to turn 79 on March 12, now is the perfect time.

                        Anyone who has read or seen "Valley Of The Dolls" knows that the pool scene was based on when Judy Garland caught husband Vincente Minnelli in bed with the pool cleaner.  The poor pool cleaner and poor Judy.

                       I mean, let's face it, Vincente Minnelli was a consummate director, designer, craftsman, artiste, but damn he was just plug ugly.  How in hell did they ever get Liza??????????  Imagine having to look at that face coming at you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Oh, my God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Maybe Judy had the good sense to turn her head to the side.

                       And how could Vincente, well.......let's just say it was easier with the pool cleaner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                    There was no in vitro back then, so the only thing I can conclude is the good old, reliable, turkey baster.

                      Marlene Dietrich once said the last man in Hollywood she would sleep with was David O. Selznick.  Honey child had a point.  If pressed for a second, I bet she would have selected Vincente Minnelli.

                        We are so glad Liza is here!  But the idea of her conception in the normal way??????????????   Aaaaaaaaaargh!!!!!!!!!  

                        She inherited Garland's artistry, but not her warmth.  Liza has done wonders, but she could never get under the skin emotionally with a song, the way her mother could.  And she inherited her father's nose.

                          But who knows, with a nose?  It should never stand in the way.

                            Just ask Barbra Streisand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
