I've seen the 1939 movie. And one of the very coolest theatrical productions I've ever seen was Kevin Kling's OZ riff which used the existing fragments of the 1910 movie as part of the show (and live music. it was so cool!) I'd love to see some of the OZ movies Baum made ca. 1915. Ooo, I found one: here's a free link to The Patchwork Girl of OZhttps://archive.org/details/PatchworkOZ . I loves me some OZ!
Have you ever been to any unusual museum(s)? What would you call "unusual"? I've probably worked at some. I enjoy weird artifacts and find it funny how many objects made of human hair I've encountered. More than you might think!
Are you working on any hobbies or home projects now? Always. I have curtains half done, a dress started, a basket started, and I still need to do a 3rd coat of paint on the table. I'm not in the same league as some of you who have actual skills, though.
Do you like to paint, like pictures or houses? I wish I had talent, but I don't.
If not then what do you like to do? I must like to make messes, because that's what I usually make.
Thanks, Wit!

to The Questions Of The Day for Sunday September 18, 2016. Being a Virgo born on September 18th, your sensitivity and reserve are among your most easily recognized personality traits. The spotlight is not your place of preference, as you are much more comfortable behind the scenes or in the background. You share birthdays with Frankie Avalon, Greta Garbo and a bunch of other people I've never heard of. 
Were you a teechur's pet?
Got some in the pantry. Not my thing. 
Sometimes, yes. 
I don't mind working but I need to find something else. It's tough getting older...
