What can I say, I’m past retirement, have a leg missing, am a fellow Floridian, and used to act and sing. Go girl, go!

She doesn’t have a real stylist. She needs a real one.

Performing arts are ingrained in our souls and am glad I wasn’t at The Oscars cuz that was not good. Why be a girl singer if you can’t wear a flower???? I like men to wear top hats or Frank Sinatra hats.

The liberals protesting in Wisconsin can’t hold a candle to conservative women. All conservative ladies are hot tamales.

is this “Death Pool?”

Lord have mercy! How can I have left out Leslie Nielsen?

If I can have 1/8 the fun he did in my latter years, I will call it a fun life!

What a guy! He took his screen persona and flipped it upside-down. I watched Nielsen on Carson (God rest his soul) and other talk shows and he was clear: he just wanted to have fun.

Smart man.

Well, I was in the chorus of ‘Anything Goes’ at CFCC in the 1970’s, but we didn’t have top hats.

YES!!!!!!!! The King's Speech wins Best Picture! Was there any doubt? ;-)

Very muted applause from the Hollyweird snobs... what film did they favor, The Social Network?

Amazing list .. Duke Snider just passed away in news today.

But if any of you get a chance to see Tony Bennett perform, RUN! You just can’t believe his vitality and that gorgeous voice and styling .. and he’s 83!. I saw him 3 years ago when he was 80 .. could NOT believe him .. simply awesome.

It was horrible but every time Norm McDonald gets a sitcom, it gets cancelled.

Yes. I agree.
I adored Leslie Neilson.
Who knew he could be so funny?

The King’s Speech was favored. Academy members [Hollywood elite] vote ... and the voted for the King’s Speech.

You might want to reconsider you Hollywood hating. It is a fine industry, blows every other country’s film industries out of the water. It employes a lot of people here in LA.
