I don't know what happened to the other one because I didn't see it in my mailbox. It's odd because I've already pre-approved your name and email address (along with many other of my readers) on my Disqus format to go through without moderation, but for some reason YOUR comments are not going through without moderation. I don't know what's up with that?<br /><br />Anyway, sorry about that neighbor.<br /><br />"Barbra is fabulous. Such a beautiful voice and a great actress too. Loved her in 'Meet the Fockers'!"<br /><br />Isn't she faaaaaaabulous? And I loved her in 'Meet The Fockers!" In fact, I loved all those movies!<br /><br />Thanks a bunch for stopping back. Really appreciate that. Hope you're enjoying a great week.

Heh."<br /><br />HA! No, you haven't been living with your head in the sand, it's just some people, like me, see EVERYTHING she's ever done because we love her so much. I think everyone has different actors/actresses that we feel really strong about, and Streisand is one for me. It's funny because Yentl is not one of my favorites of hers. I liked it, but didn't LOVE it. But I LOVED Meet The Fockers!!! Ben Stiller was a RIOT!<br /><br />"But hey, at least Barbara is worthy of worship, unlike some other big name stars who are impossible to work with (I'm looking directly at you, Christian Bale)."<br /><br />WOW...I hadn't heard he was impossible to work with, but somehow I don't find that hard to believe.<br /><br />"it's hard to imagine a time before VHS. I know I lived through it, but I guess I blocked it out like a bad memory. Where would I be without my movies?!"<br /><br />Not only VHS, but 8-tracks as well! And can you believe that I still have movies on VHS???<br /><br />Thanks so much for stopping by, buddy.

When I first started my love affair with Babs, it was initially as a singer. But as time moved on, and I began to see more of her movies, I realized what I fine actress she is as well. It's the same way I feel about Cher. I saw her in the movies, Mask and Suspect, and thought...."MY GOD, THIS WOMAN CAN ACT!!!"<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the clip. I love the way she sings that song!<br /><br />Hope you had a super weekend, buddy.

I LOVED your comment!<br /><br />"In my experience, any woman who knows what she wants and expects quality is classed as a prima donna. I also don't like the fact that Hollywood dictates what beauty is. I think Barbra Streisand is beautiful."<br /><br />Any woman who knows what she wants and expects quality is classed as either a prima donna, a diva, or a bitch. Yet when a man expects these same things, it's never even classified because it's just accepted. Truthfully, I think a women who are strong and are not afraid to speak up are a threat to many men. Especially a woman with power.<br /><br />Yes, I think Barbra is beautiful too. And her beauty is not only physical, but also internal. <br /><br />Thanks so much for stopping by, Babs. And thanks for your adding your thoughts to this post.

We must be on the same wave-lengths today!<br /><br />Yes, it is a weird way she spells her name. She took the other "A" out years ago. She did it when she was first starting out because everyone in business told her to have her NOSE changed because it was too big. So rather than change her nose, she changed her name - HA!<br /><br />"I have to admit, even as a non-gay male, I think she's got some good songs!"<br /><br />HA!
