Hey, my sweet Numpty...are you out there? Listen... 

There’s a lot of buzz going around about Lindsay Lohan being lined up to star as Elizabeth Taylor in the upcoming Lifetime movie “Liz and Dick.” It’s been widely reported that LiLo would love to have you portray Richard Burton to her Liz.

Now normally, it would be absurd for us to even entertain the thought that this scenario could ever come to pass except…you and LiLo are friends and you have been known to suffer the occasional lapse in judgment from time to time - you know it's true!    ;-D

If somebody bounces this idea your way, even if Lindsay herself asks nicely, take my unsolicited advice - DON’T DO IT. You’re such a sweet, sensitive and compassionate guy that you might consider doing it to help a friend get back on track career wise. You may also have worlds of respect for Taylor, Burton or both. Trust me though, it’s a bad idea for more than one reason.

You know for a fact that the tabloids are already far too eager to turn you and LiLo into yet another “thing.” Can you even begin to imagine the field day they would have if the two of you actually worked on a film together? The proposed title itself would play right into their slimy paws. “Liz and Dick”? Seriously, that’s the best they could come up with? Oh, the humanity.    :-P

There’s also the not-so-small matter of LiLo’s numerous trips to rehab.  That girl makes my OPMHS flare up something awful. The idea of your spending too much time with her concerns me because I think she’d be a bad influence on you. With your addictive personality, why invite trouble by hanging around with a person who might (even unintentionally) tempt you to go astray?

Okay sweetie, I’m done clucking at you…for now. You can take your fingers out of your ears and stop going “la la la la la”...

Love You Lots…

Hello everybody…I apologize for not being around lately. I’ve got a couple of things going on in real life that are taking all of my time and sapping my energy.

I’m going through a bit of upheaval at home and just don’t have it in me to do much of anything except get up, go to work, come home, do chores and go to bed. I've gone from being subdued and distraught to being irritable and resentful which is actually a vast improvement but I don’t think you could technically call it progress.    ):-P

I’m also in the middle of helping my mother move. She currently lives in an upstairs apartment at her senior housing complex and a downstairs apartment that (mostly) meets her stringent criteria finally became available. So I’ve been trying to help get her situated at the same time I’m attempting to regain my equilibrium.

I’m monitoring the Gerry-sphere and reading my Google alerts as usual – I just don’t have the spirit to pass on what I’m reading right now. Fortunately there's not a heck of a lot happening on planet Numpty at the moment. Anyway, I promise I’ll back in a day or two when I’m not so…so…rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….

Lots of love & big hugs to you all...
Paisley

P.S. - maybe I'll try making some Gerry art. That always puts me in a better mood. Can't imagine why.     :-)

Greetings & Salutations, my long-suffering friends! I apologize for being so on again/off again with Larger Than Life. I really can’t seem to make up my mind about it one way or the other, can I? I’m not running around trumpeting my return like I did the last time at least, because I have absolutely NO idea how long this will last.

I was trying to figure out why I’m finding it so hard to turn my back on LTL for good. I think it’s because I’ve discovered so many pages and groups on Facebook that are dedicated to Gerry and although what I'm doing is fun, it's no different from what anybody else is doing. Many equally smitten Gerry fans are posting links, photos, videos and observations. That’s always wonderful to see but I guess I’d like for my own worshipping to be a more unique reflection of my personality. That’s me…always gotta be the “different” one, you know? ;-D

Anyway, I make no promises because like I said I have no idea how long this will last. I don’t want to disappoint anybody and I could fizzle out again at any moment. But in the meantime (and without further self-psychoanalysis, Dr. Paisley) here are some sweet little tidbits for you to nibble on. Enjoy!

The Energizer Numpty strikes again? Gerry caught a rousing performance of “Peter and The Starcatcher” on Broadway yesterday…

…and then the next thing you know, he’s expected to appear at THIS event clear across the country tomorrow. Gerry honey, when do you sleep, in mid-flight? Or, more to the point, DO you sleep? http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/fash-track/planet-dailies-mixology-101-cocktail-lounge-west-hollywood-307615

Well now…this is something that I hadn’t heard before...I wonder if it’s true. I remember reading somewhere that Gerry would visit his dad in Toronto during summer vacations so it very well could be! http://www.thegridto.com/culture/music/then-now-tazmanian-ballroom/

The only complaint I have with the two lists featured in this post by GALS’ “becozy” and the comments that follow is that Gerry isn’t number one on both of them! I realize that there’s no accounting for taste and all but in my opinion some of these guys have no business being on either of those lists. Of course, I must confess to being just a *teensy* little bit biased. And how about that – a video tribute to Gerry’s lusciously tangled locks…who knew?   ;-D

Okay, think that's gonna do it for now my dears.  Have a wonderful night full of sweet Numpty dreams!

Love & hugs...
Paisley
