Toby makes doing good deeds sound like some sort of mental disorder. And religion like some sort of enabler. But looking back on her past?? Looking back on her past?? Could it be? It's too good to be true. Be still my heart, but I think we're going to get a Mary Worth Flashback! Those of us who are LOST fans, are just going to lose it. Please, please please let us have a Mary Worth flashback!!
Edited to add: I don't know why Mary didn't attribute her quote. For those who were wondering, it was said by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Well, i would have commented on the word "compulsion," but you've tagged that one! So how about the symbolism of the shadow over Mary's face? Doesn't that signal a change of mode -- such as a flashback? Or a psychotic episode?Or supernatural, or....... Oh, I needed "Mary Worth and Me" today, so much -- thank you, thank you. It redeems the craziness of the day.
ReplyDeletejlh, thanks for the high praise. I absolutely agree about the shadow... I think we're going to take a little trip through time.
ReplyDeleteMary Worth *help* someone? Mary has a compulsion, all right. It's called "Sticking your nose where it *doesn't* belong!" Maybe we'll be treated to earlier versions of MW's "helpful" suggestions:
ReplyDelete(1) 33BCE: "Sure, Jesus! You *need* to goto Jerusalem this week! What could go wrong?"
(2) 1894: "Tsar Nicholas, you were right to marry Alexandra, despite your parents' wishes to cement that silly alliance with France, and now you should go on and produce a son!"
(3) 1943: "Of course, Dear Adolph! This is the perfect time to take Stalingrad!"
