Welcome xanadu76! Thanks for posting in the Weakest Link forum - although I think you stirred up some controversy by voting off "Gaffa"! I hope to see you around again soon! |

I think we either have another poetry enthusiast here, Xanadu being named in the famous Samuel Taylor Coleridge poem Kubla Khan, or they saw the Olivia Newton-John movie. Of course I'm just guessing.

Hi everyone! Thanks for the welcome! It's great to find some Kate enthusiasts out there. Not many people I know could appreciate her! I have finally converted my husband, though The "Xanadu" in my name is in reference to several things: 1. The Coleridge poem Kubla Khan (score 2 points for August) 2. The home of the 9 muses in Greek Mythology (eluded to in the poem) 3. The Olivia Newton-John film (I am a child of the 80's after all) 4. The name of the estate owned by Charles Foster Kate (Orson Welles) in Citizen Kane. So, now you know that I like Kate, Peter Gabriel, poetry, 80's movies (or just Olivia) and classic film. That's a lot for a user name! I need to find out more about all of you now Thanks again and I hope we all get into some interesting discussions about Kate! |

I decided to mark my blasting off into Rocket's Tail by dropping my former username, and just using Xanadu, or Xan / Zan is fine. Less formal that way, mm? Can you go from a newbie to a Rocket's Tail in less than 2 months? I must be addicted here! ;D I miss the Babooshka though. It fit my picture. |
