Or Rob Banks. Or Doug Graves. Or the notorious Jim Shorts.

Bypassed all mention of the payola scandal that skated all around him yet left him untouched (despite his interests in record companies and publishing).

According to his IMDB bio he's only 74. I don't believe that. I thought he was much older.

He has a portrait of himself which ages, while he stays forever young.

My pleasure. I've got a million of them -- don't worry, I won't print them all out now. Well, maybe just Amanda B. Reckenwith. And Rick O'Shea. But that's all, I promise.

Ah, no biggie. And I love The Duke too. Did not appreciate him as a kid. Now I watch every movie of his that I can.

Beware of a man (or woman!) who's MIDDLE name is Wayne...

John Wayne Gacy
John Wayne Bobbitt

There ARE combinations that don't start off John Wayne, trust me!

Honest story:

I knew a cheerleader in Jr. High/High School (and at church) who's name was Candy Kane. He dad was my dentist.

I don't know if he had another daughter named Nova.

If only we had elected Kerry and Edwards, Christopher Reeve would be out of his wheelchair(coffin), and Dick Clark would never die!

Clark is an American icon. I hope everything is OK.

Now now. And which of us did not meet Ben Dover (or his sister Eileen) at some point in our school careers?

I used to watch American Bandstand back in '55. Damn, when did I get old?

Whew! Thanks for reminding me. At first I was afraid this thread was about the bad Dick Clarke (you know -- the one on American GRANDstand) in front of Jaimie and the 9/11 Commission.

God bless the REAL Dick Clarks, this one and the one from DC5 (Glad All Over / Can't UC That She's Mine / Hippy Hippy Shake).

You think YOU'RE old? Ha!

No telling how old he is. He hung on to youth harder and better than most aging Hollwood actresses. I wish him the best, strokes are mean.
