[insert hijacking icon here]

For those who don't know the origin of Abby Normal...from the movie "Young Frankenstein" (1974)

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Igor, would you mind telling me whose brain I did put in?

Igor: And you won't be angry?

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: I will NOT be angry.

Igor: Abby someone.

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Abby someone. Abby who?

Igor: Abby Normal.

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Abby Normal?

Igor: I'm almost sure that was the name.

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Are you saying that I put an abnormal brain into a seven and a half foot long, fifty-four inch wide GORILLA? IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME?

Emily,
Thanks for seeing the "positives" here, I sent you a PM but my screen did that nasty "page not found" when I sent it.
I guess the internet lines are acting up today.

Sincerely,
DE

Emmy, Have I ever told you that I completely "heart" you? You have the best way of approaching things. Every time I see you post or reply to a thread (especially a when there's a conflict going on) I am happy- and relieved- to see that you've chimed into the conversation. You have such a way with calming things down, making a bad situation better, and still letting others feel heard. Incredible. Why I "heart" PsychCentral Why I "heart" PsychCentral

AND... I have the Young Frankenstein DVD!!! I wish you ALL were in Utah so we could have a big abby normal psychcentral party at my place!!!! Why I "heart" PsychCentral
