Miss Carousel

Howdy! My name is Haley and I reside in the Great State of Texas. I am an eclectic gal full of many interests and obsessions. I enjoy those old classic country tunes and underground country singer-songwriters. I could jazz it up at the Cocoanut Grove, tap my boots at the Grand Ole Opry, and waltz at the court of Versailles. I keenly keep up with politics and am thoroughly liberal. I am a history fanatic! If you think film history is just the beginning you’re in for a handful!

Fare-the-well,

Miss Carousel

John Fitzgerald Kennedy

(May 29, 1917 - November 22, 1963)

Happy 95th Birthday, Mr. President

-

The 170-year-old Presidency had never known another like him. To the traditional dreary precinct of politics, he brought zest, flair, a style. In him was an abundance of youth; his thatch of chestnut hair, the wealth, the built-in confidence, his hungry mind, his boyish smile, his Irish eyes… He swam, he sailed, he danced. He read vocariously. His enthusiasms were many and diverse. He lived with pain, though never complained. He was cool under pressure, and saved the world. A bright, racing star who lighted men’s thoughts and dreams, Jack Kennedy was not only admired, but loved.

Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.

We were both married to someone else at the time. ‘Ring Of Fire’ —June and Merle Kilgore wrote that song for me - that’s the way our love affair was. We fell madly in love and we worked together all the time, toured together all the time, and when the tour was over we both had to go home to other people. It hurt. —Johnny Cash
