Glad to have you aboard, Nerima. And thanks so much for the TOMBOY
memories...I'm one of the few who actually saw the flick theatrically
when it first came out. And that terrific horizontal shot of Tommy in
her shorts (see photo section) was plastered over a prominent Sunset
Blvd. billboard during the movie's release. As you can imagine, it
was an amazing, super-sexy sight, and one that greeted countless
(lucky) drivers and pedestrians every day on their way to work.
As far as TOMBOY's theme song is concerned, hey, it's as cute and
feisty as our helmeted heroine herself ("...she's a road runner!").
One of these days I'll add those cool lyrics to our Files section.
Thanks again for contributing some thoughts, and feel free to do so
again. That offer extends to everyone in the club. Tell us what it
is about Betsy Russell/Tommy Boyd that inspired you to join up. Is
she a sex symbol to you? An athletic role model for girls? Both?
Till next time, TZ101
