Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog, its too dark to read.

Lydia The Tattooed Lady Says "Happy Independence day everyone! Thank someone in our uniformed services this weekend!" Posted at 7:44 AM Jul 4, 2009 view more
My real name is Amanda, and I've loved the Marx brothers ever since I first saw their movies, Dec 31, 2001--Jan 1, 2002 during a TCM Marx Movie Marathon. I watched most of their movies that night, and seen their oldest, and their greatest movies in one night. Not many people can say the same, but hopefully you are someone who can.
This clip was the very first I had seen of the Marx brothers, from their Movie "Go West" Chico plays the piano as only he could:
As I watched their movies I became more and more curious as to what they were like in life, so I began my research. Much of the information and pictures on these pages have been taken from several of the other sites which will be named in the "Links" section of www.lydiaolydia.com.
My love for the Marx Brothers was discovered after watching Go West, Which I only saw the last half, but what was there I laughed till my sides hurt, and of course, since this just happened to be a Marx-Marathon on TCM, so I ended up watching them the rest of the night. The only Marx movies I have not seen are The Story of Mankind and Humor Risk (which almost no one has seen).
I've completely revamped www.lydiaolydia.com since its opening in 2001, I've always loved the marx brothers, and always will, www.lydiaolydia.com is my testimony to that fact. The more times I see their movies, the more I want to share them with the world. Back when being in pictures required a talent more than being able to remember lines. I'd love for everyone to experience the talent and comedy of these five brothers, after all, the Marx brothers have made me laugh untill my sides hurt.
The site, itself, was rather difficult for me to make, initially. For one, because I tend to not stick to subject matter, I love variety, that being true, my other web sites never were successful, they were all too cluttered, especially before I learned how to succeed in graphics and web design. The site itself was made as a final project in a college web design class I took in high school. Its grown ever since. I've designed the website myself, using only HTML and Javascript, and I've designed all of the personalized content (Buttons, Headers, etc...). I've created my own private web design company(Azsunyx Independant Web Design and Graphics), though I don't yet have a business liscense, I do most of my work as a personal favor free of charge.
To quote Bill Marx, Harpo's son, "I shall have an opinion (the establishment of a conclusion when you are too tired to think any further) on many riveting subjects that may be of some interest to some, no interest to many, much interest to none, no interest to me, all of the above or none of the above. I may embrace a popular opinion, or I may have one that goes against the very fabric of mob-mentality popularity. Your are welcome to agree or disagree with my point of view....You are welcome to not care what I think and avoid this page entirely. This could bring great relief and satisfaction to both reader and writer."
Bei den Erdbeben, die kommen werden, werde ich hoffentlich Meine Virginia nicht ausgehen lassen durch Bitterkeit, Ich, Bertolt Brecht, in die Asphaltstädte verschlagen Aus den schwarzen Wäldern in meiner Mutter in früher Zeit.
In the earthquakes to come it is to be hoped I shan't allow bitterness to quench my cigar's glow, I, Bertolt Brecht, astray in cement cities, Brought from the black forests in my mother long ago.
Danke für die Freundschaft! Thanks for the friendship!
Thank you kindly for the add Lydia. Its lovely to have a 'fellow' Marxist on myspace and clearly one with a wealth of knowledge and appreciation of their works. I hadnt even heard of the two films you quoted that you have not seen. My own favourite is 'Duck Soup' with 'A night at the Opera' and 'Horse Feathers' joint second. They make me laugh even before they have spoken. Harpo in particular.lol. The scene that i love telling folks of most is from ANATP where Harpo takes over on piano from Chico and lands the lid on his fingers to the delight of the gathered children. The childrens expressions of 'wetting themselves' joy as Harpo runs his throbbing hands across their convulsed faces is a moment of cinema itself.... never mind any other Marxist moments. Love-Bob-X
Lydia oh Lydia, ency clo pedia, Oh how I loved it when Groucho would sing that song to you at our parties. Wanted to thank you for joining me and was hoping you might be able to make our cocktail party next Friday evening at eight. Love, Janet
