What's On The Nightstand

Julie Adams of "Creature From The Black Lagoon" fame*

 *For the sake of continuity, Julie Adams is the name used in credits pretty consistently since 1955, prior to that however, she was billed as Julia Adams (as was the case in 'Black Lagoon'), and before 1951she used Betty Adams (her real name) in billing.



I'm currently reading "A History of the Hal Roach Studios" by Richard Lewis Ward.  It was a gift from the ever-licious Donna Lethal.

    Looks like old Hal has made that fire plug a butt plug, instead.
