Hayley Mills -- English actress. Whenever I'm reminded of her, I think about me and my brother laughing like loons over the headline on a movie magazine. This was the year the movie Lolita came out, and the girl lead was the same age as Hayley. "Who is sexier, Hayley Mills or Sue Lyon?"

This was the year the movie Lolita came out, and the girl lead was the same age as Hayley. "Who is sexier, Hayley Mills or Sue Lyon?" Every girl I knew, especially if you were blonde, wanted to be just like Hayley Mills. I cut my hair to make "bangs" and really fd it up bad, not taking into account that wet hair when it dries tends to shrink. My mother was fit to be tied.

One has to wonder how she fit her full name on standard forms that usually have only sixteen boxes. I know because my first name has 8 letters, my maiden name also has 8. I don't have a middle name and one box between the 2 names has to stay blank. So, according to the IRS, my name is shy a letter because it already takes up all the boxes. You know I have been scarred by this because here I am having to tell you. It's an injustice I just can't shake I tell you.
