She (the wife) is real Stanford football fan but that was a bridge too far. OTOH, the daughter, Eleanor, is an intense Stanford football fan, along with her brother. If I could have told my wife that this would be the start of a 15/15 run with USC, maybe she would have agreed. (But she would never have believed me.)”
So if my math is correct Eleanor Glynn Muiron must be about 25? ?
Ah, 1991 to 2018 is 27 years - or will be on October 20. Who knows where the time goes?
BTW, it's Eleanor Rose Muiron (old Irish name, Muiron) - but I didn't think anyone knew about Eleanor Glynn, but spelled Elinor Glyn.
The late 19th/early 20th century British (born on Jersey) scandalous romance novelist had a good run in Hollywood in the 1920s, though not clear doing what, exactly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elinor_Glyn A character portraying her has a cameo in Singing in the Rain - look for the outrageously red wig in at the party at the producer's house when The Jazz Singer is shown. She also appears, thinly disguised, in A Room with a View. Her sister was on the Titanic and survived (as did her husband, Cosmo Duff-Gordon, who faced various insinuations as a result), became a fashion designer, and, as Lucy, Lady Duff-Gordon, is a party in an important contracts decision written by Nathan Benjamin Cardozo. But you knew all that. Both of them are shown in the 1997 film, the Titanic.
Oh, wait. Eleanor Glynn? English model and beauty queen? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_Glynn
Never mind.
