If you want to feel old, on Feb 11, Burt will turn 77.
Same age as my grandpa when he died. And my grandpa always seemed OLD.

Note that the bio somehow avoided his careers really BIG leap with the Cosmo centerfold. I think the BIG leap was caused by a staple.

It's the hair. Yes, indeed! The question remains: Whose?

A hospital is probably the worst place to go if you are suffering from a respiratory illness. All the antibiotic resistant bacteria and pneumonia strains just lurking about looking for old patients to kill. That may be still be true in Zimbabwe or Cuba, but modern hospitals practice infection control. If you're Burt's age and have a serious respiratory illness I'd say you'd have a much better chance going to the hospital.

I notice the women said wrinkles and gray hair don’t detract from a guy’s looks. They said nothing about baldness.

I don’t know about that. I personally know two people who developed infections at teaching hospitals in the Boston area.
This was in the last 2 years.

Well, that’s like getting of a bad haircut at a Barber College.

Burt also appeared in a story line of the series Burn Notice not all that long ago. He played a former agent suffering from onset of Alzheimers.

I have always just love him, I wish him a quick recovery... Get well soon Burt!,,,,,,,!

That’s one of my favorite X-Files episodes, just because of him. That one and “Jose Chung’s From Outer Space.” Charles Nelson Reilly was pitch-perfect and apparently charmed cast and crew alike.
To: MollyGoose
Yep. Jose Chung is a classic. Charles Nelson Reilly reprised that role for an episode of Millenium, in which he was doing research for an article he was writing on a cult (a thinly veiled shot at Scientology).

Here is a good brain teaser about Reynolds,
He was born in s smsll town along wih Pernell Roberts and several less fmous actors who were still well known
That town is the largest town in the largest county, in the largest state East of the Mississippi.
Where was he born
Burt

What? Does this mean you did not approve of Doctor Kildare's plastic surgery?
But, but, it looked so natural! So I told my wife to irk her, who for some reason (Thornbirds?) likes the old fag.
To: boop
It’s unfortunate that Deliverance came out the same year as the Godfather and only received three Oscar nominations-—amazingly none for acting, screenplay, cinematography, or the music. Brando was good, I admit, but ignoring Burt, Jon Voight, Ned Beatty, and Ronny Cox was a CRIME. You’re probably wondering who got the nominations? Michael Caine, Peter O’Toole, and Laurence Olivier in movies I never heard of.
