Let alone taking Mrs. Bush's hand and kissing it .. eueewwww. I know. Chirac should keep his smarmy, lying lips to himself.

Jeanette MacDonald is high on my personal list of favorite actresses. While I'm not as big a fan of Nelson Eddy because his acting style was kind of wooden, I love his voice. No question the two of them were magic together.
As Hollywood types go, their personal lives were pretty clean and upstanding, as well. Jeanette married a man, Gene Raymond, who, interestingly enough, looked a lot like Nelson. He was her only husband, and they were married for 28 years, until her death in 1965.
Nelson also had only one spouse, Ann Denitz Franklin, and they were married 28 years until his death in 1967.

...maybe they're having some intensive training with Beezy and will take her along so she can "accidentally" pee on his leg.Now THAT is something I'd pay to see, LOL!
The description of it being a "working" lunch makes me think the First Lady will not be attending, even if she goes on the trip.

I just saw a clip of the Pres. getting off Marine 1.I saw that too, homemom, and think you're right. As usual, Barney was going off in a direction only a Scottish terrier would understand, and the President was trying to get him going toward the WH. Those little tidbits between GWB and that dog make me happy every time.

I think the First LADY probably wants to stay away from that SLIMY girly-man and the Pres. probably wants to keep her away from him. Can you imagine the jokes that must have gone on between Goerge and Laura after Chirac kissed her hand??? LOL!

Judy, thank you for sharing that.
Wow.
I had no idea about things like the children's response -- how galling. How telling.
Even today I get the same way as you if I look at photos or documentaries of that day of horror.
I'm glad you found FR.

That's cool you helped out the little guy with the Pine Derby and that he did so well. My son had a friend's father help him build one and the dad really got into it. The result was a trophy-taking, sleek, cherry-red beauty with a silver-speckled sheen. Boys don't forget things like that, or the men who helped them.

I disagree that Nelson Eddy was "wooden." It's a common critique, but I don't think it holds up if you know all his work on film (or anything about his concert and operatic performances).
If all you see is his being a Mountie (a stiff-type role), you might think that.......although there are plenty of moments in Rose Marie where he wasn't "wooden"...... but if you watch Maytime, there is no way to think he wasn't a fine actor, and very relaxed when the role called for it.
People often mistake his proper New England demeanor as being aloof (not unlike the image that Poppy Bush had), but it's not really the case. He also had some really lousy roles (as did Jeanette) because they were such huge box office stars that MGM got lazy with them, and thought they'd have hits because of their incredible star power (more popular than Clark Gable at the time).
OK......end of testimonial for Nelson Eddy. Back to the President! :o)

"All I ask of You" is, IMO, the most intensely emotional romantic duet since the days of N&J. There was an intensity, a sexuality, to their duets (best example "Wanting You" in New Moon) that has never been matched since.
"All I ask of You" HAS that intense, rip your heart out kind of quality that hasn't really been done in 50 plus years. That's a better way of saying how it affected me than any way I could have said it. To me, it felt anointed, which is an extraordinarily unusual thing for me to say about music outside the church, or music by what we would think of as secular artists. It didn't affect just my soul; it moved upon my spirit.

How close were you when you took that photo? (How much telephoto did you have to use?) It's a jewel.

A lot of times when a teenager gets kissed by a celebrity, you hear that the kid refused to wash her hand or face for days afterwards. Well, I'll bet Laura couldn't wait to wash her hand after Chirac touched it, let alone kissed it.

But what really interests me is the fact that GWB is so patient with that funny little dog. He never seems to lose his temper with Barney, no matter what the dog is doing. In fact, he must really like the Scottie penchant for independence, because he bought a 2nd one.

I just put a library hold on three Eddy-MacDonald movies: "Rose Marie," "Maytime," and "Phantom of the Opera."

That is a breathtakingly touching song .. and, though I despise BStreisand for her politics and vicious Bush attacks, I recently heard her version of "All I Ask of You" ... I put the "person" out of my mind and just listened to the voice .. oh my, brings tears. Such a shame her gift is used in such vile ways.

Gretchen, I was up front of the Red 14 section about 10 rows from the front of that section. I used a Canon 20D with a 300mm zoom lense. I now wish I would have tought about crouching down a little to move that top rim of the bulletproof glass to the top of his head. But I was so excited, its a wonder I get this one so good. I was originally supposed to have North Green Standing tickets, but a couple of days before, my daughter-in-law landed these Red tickets. She is a dentist and had a patient who worked for a Dem in the House. The best thing about this was that I got these last minute good seats from someone who works on the Hill for a Democrat. So these were two seats that DID NOT go to the Radical Leftist Code Pink Ladies who tried to interrupt the Ceremonies. My other photos from that day are on my personal web site at:
