Wicked Wednesdays: Miss Gulch

Welcome to Wicked Wednesdays where we chat
about movie villains past, present and future.




I've been watching the Wizard of Oz since I was knee high to a Munchkin, so it's only natural that my first memory of a movie villain would be the one and only Miss Gulch aka The Wicked Witch of the West.

Watching this movie as a young girl, I related to Dorothy and hated the Witch. But now that I'm "old" -- I relate more to the Witch. I understand Miss Gulch's impatience with Toto. There's nothing worse than an annoying neighborhood dog. Miss Gulch is a woman who takes action and doesn't just sit around and wait for things to happen. She jumps on her bicycle and pedals over the dusty country road to confront the Gale family. She could care less if there's a cyclone brewing. She's prepared for anything. She has already been to the Sheriff to obtain a legal document giving her permission to take the dog. You go, girl!

As for the Wicked Witch of the West. . . what do you expect when someone kills your sister? Even though the legal term is "manslaughter," you don't come back from something like that. Just sayin'.

Would you confront your neighbors about their annoying dog?

  1. Depends on the neighbors. I've outlasted three sets on my right side - the same guy on my left side from the day I moved in here.

  2. Craig: I've out lasted a family with three dogs (Springer Spaniel, yellow Lab and a Boxer). I couldnt' walk out the door without them barking. Sometimes they would come out at night and bark at all hours when the family was gone. I wasn't upset with the dogs. Just the owners. The dogs only had a small pen with no room to run. The only exercise they got was when the owners took them out. And these are dogs that need a LOT of exercise. They finally moved out and now I have peace and quiet.
