That guy had a lot of money and a really big house.Yep, and he still had to meet his maker, sans his estate, fame and money!
Tory will be next in line, unless he had a different position on the inheritance issue!

Hmm, I didn't know until I looked @ his IMDB page. He was involved in the very short lived show called "All Souls" which stared my favorite actress. Wish I could find a copy of it.

I'm telling you, Microsoft has laid some eggs in the past (MSN, Messenger, Windows ME). But Live.com is going to present a big challenge to Google.

There was a hell of a lot of post production work on that photo.

If a person seems to be a good person (not shallow, not liberal, not mean), we don't pick on their looks no matter how bad they look.
If a person seems to be a not-so-good person, we pick on their looks AND on their other failings.
Beauty's from the inside; but ugly can spill over too.

I'm proud to say I never watched a Spelling production once I got more then four channels.
Oh and let me ammend my previous post r.e. Tori to include: 'Best photoshopping/airbrushing'. (In case anybody noticed the wide difference in pictures of her.)

Yep. Taken off the air by ABC after parents complained of its violence.

Goodness, with all those hit shows I just realized I only liked one of them, (Twin Peaks) and that one for maybe the first 10 episodes.
I too have heard he was a nice guy.
To: Rockitz
I thought the Spellings were Jewish too, but he went to SMU. Don't they let Jews into SMU?
To: Clemenza
SWAT. Great show for the time. I remember when they had the spin off episode of the Rookies to launch it.
You never knew who the SWAT van driver was. LOL
