Whose that guinea?


What's even weirder is that her sister is Swedish!

Isabella Rosellini. She was great in Big Night.

Darcy said...

Pretty.

My grandfather was a Swede.

Ingrid Birgman's granddaughter? Gorgeous.

Bergman.

Trooper York said...

No that is her daughter.

Her sister was Pia Lindstrom who was a reporter in NYC for many years on Channel 4.

Ah, that's an old pic of her, she's 59, same age I am, ah we were so beautiful at that age, who wasn't?

ricpic said...

She isn't as beautiful as her mother was, at any age. Which is no crime. In fact how could it be otherwise considering her mother? The thing I don't like about Rosellini is the air of royalty she gives off. Folks who won the lucky sperm lottery, good for you but is that it? that's going to define you your whole life? It's that vibe of I'm royalty and you're not.

I'm convinced I would've operated a guillotine with conviction but I was born too late.

Loved her in "Cousins." Liked the movie "Cousin, Cousine" way more than the movie "Cousins," mind you--but liked Isabella more than either.

rcommal said...

I suppose that Ingrid Bergman was more beautiful than Isabella Rosellini is, in the way that Jayne Mansfield was more beautiful than Mariska Hargitay is. But--juniper on a critic!--who the hell wants to spend time making those sort of distinctions?

Beauty[-ies], live on!

: )

rcommal said...

OTOH, what the hell do I know. I'm a girl, not a guy.

I actually met her when we were both in our twenties. She was an unknown model buying cosmetics from a company I did the taxes for. She was very beautiful in person.

I was afraid to talk to her.

Trooper York said...

At time she had a giant zit that she was buying make up to cover.

I was still to scared to talk to her.

I was a young punk kid then.

Trooper York said...

At least now....I am older. Ha.

Good morning, boys and girls. Would you like AllenS to tell you a nice Christmas story? Great, I knew you would.

When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.
Then Mrs. Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, who knows where.
Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.

Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had consumed all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?'

And so began the tradition of the little angel sitting on top of the Christmas tree.

Not a lot of people know this.

No wonder those angels all have a pained look on their faces! My grandson would love that story, not too risqué , I think I'll tell it to him. I'm up as early as you today Allen, that's what you get when you go to bed at 8PM.

I like rum in my eggnog , or brandy, but whiskey, yuck.Hot apple cider with rum, sounds good too actually. Isn't it strange we haven't had a big snow fall yet, well in SE Wisconsin we haven't. Up in Blackriver Falls they had a few inches, while I was there.

AllenS said...

When I go to bed at 8PM, I'm up at 12-1AM.

Roger J. said...

AllenS--great story! I have already checked in on another thread as the morning shift--Allie? she apparently might have some insomnia issues, but glad to see her bright eyed and bushy tailed.

Anonymous said...

Bright eyed, yes now after two cups of coffee. I'm going to drive down to Chicago, to meet up with a couple of female friends, shopping and good food on the menu, but ugh I so hate shopping nowadays.

ndspinelli said...

AllenS, You forgot to say the angels name..it's Titus, the Gay Angel.

ricpic said...

When I go to bed at 8PM, I'm up at 12 - 1AM.

Okay, fine, but be honest now, if you don't go back to bed at 2 - 3AM and then sleep till 6 - 7AM you drag your butt around the next day, right?

AllenS said...

No. There are no gay angels.

AllenS said...

Once or twice per year, will I have to take a nap.

AllenS said...

I just finished doing some sandblasting. What a filthy job. Took a shower, and I am thinking about beer.

Roger J. said...

Today was a banner day for us early risers--gorgeous sunrise in the east and a beautiful full moonset in the west--life is good.

Now I have confront my lady friends fearsome honey-do list--Oh well

Titus said...

She is beautiful.

Loved her in Blue Velvet.

You got to see her tits.

They were nice.

tits.

Jason (the commenter) said...

I loved her in The Saddest Music in The World, and the first season of Green Porno.

Titus said...

I loved the scene in Blue Velvet when Jeffrey was out with his date and she appears on the lawn naked. The dates parents were a little confused.

Hot.

Ruth Anne Adams said...

Have you seen Isabella's green porno?

MamaM said...

Have you seen Isabella's green porno

No, but I have now. Thanks Jason and Ruth Anne.

...grow weapons on top of their heads made me laugh. We've evolved a long way. Now the best weapons are no longer on top but inside the head. With shared humor and wonder being some of the developed traits unique to humans

I'm Full of Soup said...

Heh, now Isabella looks a bit like that prime minister Berlusconi.

Titus said...

Thanks for the green porno link.

Never heard of it.

Loved it.

blake said...

Yeah, she's not Ingrid.

But that's okay.
