A blustery Sunday afternoon in Jersey...what to do? what to do?
Since I have no books that I haven't read/feel like reading over again - I turn to my good friend Comcast. Normally, Comcast is pretty disappointing. But today was different. HBO was showing "The Wiz".
I heart "The Wiz". I've seen it so many times. But this time, I noticed a few things:
-How talented MJ was in this movie.: His voice is AMAZING. Particularly when singing the Crow Anthem. Even his acting was good. Such a shame, such a shame.
-The similarities between Diana Ross and Whitney Houston: Miss Ross can't dance. To save her life. She and Whitney are cut from the same cloth. Nor can she act...much like Whitney. She needs a burger or too....much like Whitney.
- Dorothy is from Harlem. Prior to moving to this area, south of 125th meant nothing to me.
- There are a lot of sublte fun things in the movie....the "Don't Ease" signs when they meet the Lion. The Nathan's sign when they leave with the Tin Man. Teeny looks A LOT like Evillene.

I've not seen the Wiz, but I assume it's a remake of the Wizard of Oz?
I also heart that movie. I never thought how much Teenie looks like Eveline but you are so right. Every time a cab pulls away I smile.
