20th? Time for a wild guess! Remember, not made in America! |

| Posted : Friday, 9 February 2007 - 00:22 Good guess! Not the correct one though.
The answer is:
Mary Pickford, America's sweetheart! She was from Canada, made a fortune as the first real star of the movies and along with Douglas Fairbanks and Charlie Chaplin founded United Artists.

...and so,as the sun slowly sinks into the west, Mog has triumphed over adversity and has garnered a point for himself. We'll see you in the next installment of:

| Posted : Friday, 9 February 2007 - 20:12 Nobody is THAT old, except TaurusRex. But really, does one have to be old to have some knowledge of the culture one is raised in? I meet young people who know almost nothing about history, world cultures, trivia or anything else for that matter. I also meet young people who read a lot and know about things that happened before their blessed arrival on this green earth.
Mary Pickford was the most famous actress on earth for a long time. She is credited with being the very first "star" of movies. Her career was long over before I was born. Somehow, I know who she is anyway, just like I know who Napoleon or Da Vinci are, and that is because I read.
Maybe if folks put that video game controller down for a few minutes a day and actually had an interest in something besides killing virtual granny they would know these things but I'm not gonna hold my breath for that.
