Still in Love with Deborah Harry
Watched a concert by Blondie on A&E a while ago, and was enchanted by the idea of having a full two-hours worth of Deborah Harry right in my living room. She's looking good, very good, for a woman nearing 60. And, she's sounding good. Not as good as she did in her 30s, but none of that took from my pleasure.
"I think if you ever loved anybody in entertainment, it would be fair to suggest Debbie Harry would be the one," my wife suggested. Actually, my current wife didn't even know me when Ms. Harry first entered my line of vision, but in that, I guess she'd be right. I've never been any sort of a star-fucker, but in the case of Deborah, I'd make an exception.
I think it was about 1979, maybe 1980 that I first noticed her. She was in prime form, then. It was on the old 'Vancouver Show', and punk-rockers known as Blondie were the guests. The moment I saw her, my interest was piqued.
And, through the years, my interest never waned. When I took a year-long sabbatical in England in 1980-81, my colleagues presented me with an inscribed poster. It was the face of Deborah Harry, and the inscription by one of the signers simply stated: "May she roll you in designer sheets" forever.
Worked for me.
still does. Bless you, Deborah, with your Marilyn looks, your slightly sneering lips, your deadpan. One way or another I'm never gonna "getcha-getcha-getcha", but you are a charming speculation.
