Nature's Call

...[Tallulah] had to go to the john, but found when she was settled in for the duration that there was no toilet paper at hand. "So I looked down and saw a pair of feet in the next stall. I knocked very politely and said: 'Excuse me, dahling, I don't have any toilet paper. Do you?' And this very proper Yankee voice said: 'No, I don't.' Well, dahling, I had to get back to the podium for Adlai [Stevenson]'s speech, so I asked her, very politely you understand, 'Excuse me dahling, but do you have any Kleenex?' And this now quite chilly voice said: 'No, I don't.' So I said: 'Well then, dahling, do you happen to have two fives for a ten?'" - from People Will Talk by John Kobal

Tallulah Thursday!

I'll Take Tallulah's Advice

"I'm off to Hollywod, dahling, to fuck that divine Gary Cooper!"

We'll Take Tallulah

Our latest Mystery Guest was the Alabama Foghorn herself, Miss Tallulah Bankhead. Just exactly why someone thought it would be a good idea to gussy a Prell Shampoo tube up in Tallulah drag is lost to the mists of time, but we're sure whatever the reason was, it was a dilly.

FlowerBell was the only one to guess correctly; she wins a custom made Tallulah Toupée, to be worn wherever needed. Whether this is a problem for hair, makeup or costuming is up to you, dahling!

How the Hell Should She Know, Dahling?

He never sucked her cock.
