In the course of reading Andrew Birkin`s superlative interpretation of the life of James Barrie, I have come to accept a couple of things: one, that the paedophile label was stuck because of Barrie`s iconoclastic approach to parenting and two, that the penchant to remain fixed in a certain period of time is in effect what is termed as `ghostly`.
It seems to be that America is stuck in a time warp....as it harps and harps and harps about life in one`s school days...whether one was pretty or ugly....popular or not....etc.
I wouldn`t refer to myself as `Ugly Betty`; but I sure as heck would, if given Thornton Wilder`s choice to Emily, seek to relive any year before 1970 (and I was born in 1943) My happiest moments, and there were a few, happened when I was well free of childhood and childhood influences.
Alan Carr can mock and ridicule and lampoon as much as he wants to....the caricature of `Sandy` in `Grease` is a nasty bit of caricature full stop.

Americans are obsessed with just about everything. I am an American, always have been, always will be, but we are an obsessive people. We are the Land Of Plenty and we take full advantage of this.
