Interesting side note:
The "Rabbit, Run!" lead character that led people down a rabbit hole is Harry Angstrom.
Billy Crystal's character in "When Harry Met Sally..." is Harry BURNS! Another unintentional connection to the meta.

Well, let’s get this Harry meeting Sally thing going again while we’re waiting.
In reel life, this is one of the best pictures I’ve seen. This big guy fits the Hairy bill. That day he probably was sallying forth, looking for a good rom-com(panion). Never did see the ending. But so glad I looked up just as he was passing.
Early 80’s photo, as we were building our gardens.

Greetings -- a belated report after a holiday weekend. This was (befitting its subject) another blockbuster: 2976 entries, a whopping 94% correct.
Incorrect entries included FRIENDS (10), MOONSTRUCK (3), and a scattering of other one-offs. Stay tuned for two more contests aimed at broadening our audience. And congrats to this week's winner: Carla Spacone of Providence, R.I.!

Friends??? Did they make a movie out of the TV show, and make it a ROM-com to boot? (Thought they'd played out the romance parts of it on tv.) And do TV shows really count? Still... Friends? Oh well. Here's to harder metas in March! (Though I liked the Harry/Sally "meeting" part of this one.)

I wouldn't call myself a novice, but I do enjoy the well-constructed metas on the "easier" end of the scale. I find them more enjoyable...not feeling that stress.
