    An inside bit of trivial knowledge... one of my favorite musicals.
    An outside thought... because they weren't taught how to say:

    Please don't leave.  If you must, are you coming back?  If not, I'll track you down and make you do unfathomable things!

    Element easy answer, they are Americans and Brits playing at being Austrian. 

    Es ist einfach.  Ja mein Deutsch is schlecht, es sind beide Osterreich und Bayerish.  Kennnst du mich, ja oder nein?

    Do you know this is one of the few places I still write in English?  German is the 1st language in our house and with our kids.

    Like Merlin said, stay.
    :)

     *   when I've watched this movie, I sort often think that that one girl is Angela Cartwright -- 'Penny Robinson' on the "Lost In Space" TV show
    :)

      *   And Angela is the sister (or is she cousin?) to another actress I really admire, Veronica Cartwright

    * and I really enjoy Bananarama and this is one of their songs I really like -- and the official music video is great to watch for me - - filmed in many of the same locations as "The Sound of Music" movie. And the video goes in sort of a chronological order of the movie.
    :)



    "Cheers Then"   Bananarama

    Call me goofy but I am mentally stretching my timeline on life to make sure we meet for a time to laugh and listen to some of your music and movie choices. :) :)

    You have missed your calling.

    Please come to Hollywood and be a movie/music critic. If I had enough money, I would set you up and be your agent!

    You are Siskel and Ebert and KC Kason all rolled into one. :) :)

    You never cease to amaze me!

    I must say -- you are present and saying things to me right now that are extremely helpful to my being.

    I would benefit to say some of these things to myself, too. At times, I can be pretty hard on myself, I admit.

    Thank you.
    :)

    As anyone who has known our friendship as long as we have known each other,
    I mean it.
    You are a wonderful person.  You just seem to forget sometimes how talented you are and how you DO make a positive difference in many people's lives.
    :) :)
    Mine, for example. :)  
    Even when I am not here, you are with me in my heart as I am with you.
    Hugs and loves, always, my dear friend, Welby.
    You are well.  And our friendship will always be.
