I will only attend these parties on one condition: dress-up is encouraged (or required but it's your party). Especially Dolly Parton night!!! HELL YES! Then we can hop the trolley to Pigeon Forge and rock out kuntry-style!
YEEE-HAW! (that was my Howard Dean yell)

Hard Candy Christmas.
I hope Dolly Night would somehow feature the listening of the "Islands in the Stream" duet with Kenny Rogers.

Challenge for you: What movies would you group with L.A. Story (not to be confused with L.A. Confidential)?

Another challenge: How would you develop a librarian theme, with or without Noah Wylie's Librarian movies?

Hmmmm...well, for the librarian theme, I'd show Party Girl, and Desk Set.

As for L.A. Story, I actually meant to put that in my "Silly Men" category. Brain fart, I guess.
