Friday LinkFrogging – 10/22/10

I, your humble editor, have a confession to make.

When I sat down to compile this week’s list of links, I had no cheesecake.  That, dear reader(s) is a first.  I usually have the pick made by Monday with at least an inkling of what I’m going to write about.

This week, nothing.

None of the new movies moved me.  We’ve used a lot of the current TV stars.  I have a “do not use” list that includes Kardashians and Lohans.

I was listening to Prince’s LotusFlow3r CD today and one of the tracks reminded me of “Batdance.”  This, of course, got me thinking of Vicki Vale herself, Kim Basinger.

My wife mentioned that Bob Guccione died this week.  Looking for links to Bob is a risky internet search kids.  It did, however, remind me that Helen Mirren was in Caligula.

In the end, I decided to go with Anne Hathaway.

Why?

Well, last week was Stephe’s birthday.  Stephe has a thing for Ms. Hathaway and I forgot to use her last week as I planned to.

Simple really.

Maybe I overthink these things.

On to the links.
