Frank Morriss RIIP, Romancing the Rock 'n Pop Group ᗅᗺᗷᗅ

I was so caught up in Frank Morris (single "s") in my previous post re:Frank Morriss RIIP, Frank Morris 611/911 and Topsy Turvy May Way EpiFannythat I didn't get much of a chance to delve into the life and the death, of Frank Morriss.

Note the following from Wikipedia's Death in 2013 site under July 3rd:
Frank Morriss, 85, American film editor (Romancing the StoneShort Circuit)
Note the following from his wiki page:
 Frank E. Morriss (10 September 1927 – 3 July 2013)
As you can see, he was born one day short of 9/11 hence falling into the "Off By One" pattern-cluster.  Note the following re the date of 9/10:
September 10 is the 253rd day of the year (254th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. There are 112 days remaining until the end of the year
Of course, there being 112 days remaining means that it's also "one off" from the "111" pattern-cluster  a position that happens to belong to 9/11:
September 11 is the 254th day of the year (255th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. There are 111 days remaining until the end of the year.
It's audd that "Romancing the Stone" should crop up now, considering the other "Frank Morris" (single "s") who I covered in my previous post -- renown for his ingenious escape from Alcatraz, the  Penitentiary in San Francisco Bay, otherwise known as "the ROCK".  

Getting back to Frank Morriss' (double "ss") wiki page, I noted a list of films that he had been involved in editing, note the following:
Note this excerpt from the wiki page of the first one in the list re: L.A. 2017:

Original air dateJanuary 15, 1971

The film aired on January 15th... which happens to be the birthday of both my life partner Cathy and son Chris!!

Now I'm reminded of the song: 

The Name of the

 Game -is a 1977 song by Swedish pop group ABBA,


Audd, the second B in their logo is spelled backwards  ᗅᗺᗷᗅ


Note the following from the ABBA wiki page re http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABBA
ABBA is an acronym of the first letters of the band members' first names (Agnetha, Benny,Bjorn and Anni-Frid) and is sometimes stylized as the registered trademark ᗅᗺᗷᗅ.
Lyrics:

 I've seen you twice, in a short time 
Only a week since we started 
It seems to me, for every time 
I'm getting more open-hearted 

I was an impossible case 
No-one ever could reach me 
But I think I can see in your face 
There's a lot you can teach me 
So I wanna know...... 

What's the name of the game? 
Does it mean anything to you? 
What's the name of the game? 
Can you feel it the way I do? 
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know 
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow 

And you make me talk 
And you make me feel 
And you make me show 
What I'm trying to conceal 
If I trust in you, would you let me down? 
Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? 
Could you feel the same way too? 
I wanna know...... 

The name of the game 

I have no friends, no-one to see 
And I am never invited 
Now I am here, talking to you 
No wonder I get excited 

Your smile, and the sound of your voice 
And the way you see through me 
Got a feeling, you give me no choice 
But it means a lot to me 
So I wanna know...... 

What's the name of the game? 
(your smile and the sound of your voice) 
Does it mean anything to you? 
(got a feeling you give me no choice) 
(but it means a lot) 
What's the name of the game? 
(your smile and the sound of your voice) 
Can you feel it the way I do? 
Tell me please, 'cause I have to know 
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow ....
