The home page and original site for the Famous Grazing Blogs

There are more than a dozen Famous Grazing Blogs residing on the cybersphere. Some are dormant and some very active. They all link back here to the Granddaddy of our blogs, founding in May of 2004.

Blogger Server Uncooperative.

The Blogger portal is not letting me in using the usual mumbo-jumbo.  This is an attempt to get around that using the Windows Live Writer.

The woman who wrote the script for The Blob died recently at the tender age of 94.  Her story is in the Obit pages of the NYT.  What I found interesting in the story was all the rest about her 50 films and appearances on Broadway were brushed over.  The fact that she didn’t receive the money owed to her in agreed royalties, along with those owed to Steve McQueen.  She brushed it off for the value of authors credits.

Imagine living a full ninety four years and having your obit go on about something for which you weren’t paid. Why bother?
