Who didn’t want to be “That Girl”…
That Girl was one of the first television shows to focus on the single working girl, predating CBS’s Mary Tyler Moore Show by four years. This situation comedy followed heroine Ann Marie’s adventures as she struggled to establish herself on the New York stage while supporting herself with a variety of temporary jobs….

when my mind runs away and
all focus is lost.

Me. Always.
I already lost count of how many books I recently got and am trying to finish.
I have a trunk full of books to read.

This is one of the best songs that I’ve heard in a while!!!!
The Devil probably could have cut Haiti a better deal than the French did … After being defeated militarily by revolutionary Toussaint L’Ouverture, the French colonial powers who held Haiti demanded reparations in the form of 150 million gold francs in order to recognize the new, free nation. That number was later, generously of course, reduced to 90 million gold francs, or over $20 billion current U.S. dollars … [Haiti] did not finish paying off the “independence debt” to France until 1947… We use language, like the selective telling of history, to confuse things sometimes. So Haiti becomes “cursed” instead of shackled by a post-Colonial debt that no Western nation ever had to bear.
