Urgrace | Sunday, March 24, 2002 - 01:56 pm     Ketchuplover you ask if a well known person is dead or alive, then wait for someone to answer. Then you tell them the correct answer. Such as: River Phoenix |

Sia | Monday, April 22, 2002 - 11:14 pm     John Gavin is alive, actor married to actress Constance Towers. Gavin is in his 70s and was mentioned in an interview of Towers in "Soap Opera Weekly" magazine within the past six months or so. Somebody post another person.  |
Sia | Sunday, April 28, 2002 - 10:53 am     Is Bob Hope still alive? |
Littlebreeze | Sunday, April 28, 2002 - 11:27 am     Bob Hope's still alive, Sia. I read an article about him just recently. His 99th birthday's next month. |
Sunshinemiss | Monday, April 29, 2002 - 04:10 am     Art Carney is dead, I'm pretty sure.. John Forsythe ? |
Sia | Monday, April 29, 2002 - 09:22 am     Cool, Little. Glad to hear Hope's still alive. You remember when it was erroneously announced in Congress that he'd died? He had not! Thanks for helping to revive this thread; there are a couple of others just languishing out there in cyber-space. |
Littlebreeze | Thursday, May 02, 2002 - 02:28 pm     John Forsythe's alive, Sia. What a handsome man, huh? Made my heart go pitty-pat. He was 71 years old during Dynasty's last season in 1989. Imagine, that handsome and that sexy at 71.
|
Sia | Friday, May 03, 2002 - 02:28 am     'kay, Little; your turn to name someone. SunshineMiss, what info do you have on John Forsythe? Didn't he have a cameo in the recent re-make of "Charlie's Angels" with Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore? LittleBreeze, I will always think that Charlton Heston's the sexiest actor ever! What a hunk o' man!! He's getting up there in age, too, but he is as appealing to me now as he was when he was in his thirties!" |
Littlebreeze | Saturday, May 04, 2002 - 05:43 am     Sia.... couldn't agree more about Charlton Heston, a 10 on the hunkometer. What a body on that man and they made sure we saw it, even way back when. I can still picture a scene in my mind, I think from Ben Hur. He was being held against his will, an oarsman, chained at the ankle, down in the belly of a Roman ship. In little more than a loincloth, he was maneuvering those oars to the beat of the drummer.... skin glistening with sweat, muscles rippling, his strong, handsome face, his eyes ablaze with fearlessness and outrage. Yowza! And that voice, Sia, that deep, sexy voice that you can imagine whispering in your ear. Is it getting hot in here? Because he's politically active, you still see him around now and then and he's still a very handsome, sexy man. He's got several decades on me, but he still moves my blood around. Why did a woman, Mother Nature, make the aging process so biased to men? I defy anyone to find a 78 year old woman that can make a young man's blood stir. There's not enough plastic surgery in the world to make that happen. Excuse me while I glare at Mother Nature.... |
Sia | Saturday, May 04, 2002 - 11:42 am     Oh, Little, I'm LMAO at your post! You're absolutely right. Think of the actresses Charlton Heston's age, and most of them would puke a dog off a gut-wagon: Elizabeth Taylor. . . BLECCCHHHHH!! Need I say more? Heston still sets off my hunk-o-meter, too, and I don't care how old he gets; he'll always be my ideal of the perfect man. As a young, bronzed hard-body, he was just the juiciest, most rugged thing. . . Yes, I do believe it's getting hot in here!!  |
Weinermr | Saturday, May 04, 2002 - 03:11 pm     Sorry to interrupt and cool things off. Art Carney is still alive. Littlebreeze and Sia, my wife and I were at a medical center here in the L.A. area about 3 weeks ago, and walked right past Charlton Heston in the lobby. I caught his eye and kind of nodded at him, and he kind of nodded back as we passed each other walking in opposite directions. While I don't have the same reaction to Charlton Heston as you do, I was still star struck (as I always am when I sight celebrities). Resume your heavy breathing now. |
Sia | Saturday, May 04, 2002 - 04:39 pm     Oh, Weiner, no matter how old I get, I'll always be such a fan of Heston. Lucky for me that I wasn't there, because I'm afraid I'd have drooled on my shirt and embarrassed myself--not to mention what kind of effect my behavior might have had on poor Charlton Heston. You lucky star-gazer, you. With which other celebrities have you rubbed elbows? |
Littlebreeze | Saturday, May 04, 2002 - 05:35 pm     LOL, WM.... pant, pant, pant. Now don't break our hearts by telling us that he didn't look wonderful up close and in person. By the way, did you happen to slip him my phone number while you were nodding? |
Weinermr | Sunday, May 05, 2002 - 09:45 am     Littlebreeze, I wouldn't dream of bursting your bubble. Yes, I slipped him your phone number - the rest is up to him. A couple years ago my wife and I were in a department store shopping in the men's department. I was looking at some ties, just kind of poking around and idly looking at things. I was standing next to a woman who was dressed in rather baggy clothes and had a scarf wrapped around her head and face, so that you could see only her eyes and part of her face. I wasn't really paying attention to her. Then I accidentally dropped a tie on the floor. The woman standing next to me bent over to pick up the tie and turned to hand it to me. As our eyes met, it was unmistakeable - it was Ann-Margaret!! I mumbled thank you, and she smiled with a twinkle in her eyes and a smile on her face that said "I know he recognizes me". Being the discreet person I am I didn't say anything more since she so obviously was trying to conceal her identity, but I was bursting with excitement. I ran to find my wife and tell her what happened and she was typically blase about it all, but she was happy for me. Now Ann-Margaret is not 78, and I didn't even get to see much of her beyond her face, but people don't become "stars" for nothing. There is a beauty and a charisma they have that goes deeper than outward physical appearance - and age has to go a long way to erase that presence. I know they are just people, but it's hard not to relate to the persona that "celebrities" have so carefully cultivated and maintained. |
Littlebreeze | Sunday, May 05, 2002 - 10:10 am     Yup, WM. Even when celebrity beauty fades, the mystique remains eternal. You got me curious as to Ann-Margaret's age so I looked at a few of her online biographies. Only a couple had her date of birth. It's well known that celebrities often put out false birth dates but she's listed as being born in April, 1941. She would've just turned, ah, where's my calculator?... 61? It wasn't too many years ago that she made those Grumpy Old Men movies and she was still looking gorgeous. I can imagine the quickening pace of your heart when her twinkling eyes locked on yours. Have you encountered any other celebrities out there in L.A.? I spent a month in Hollywood and never saw a celebrity. Saw lots of limos with blackened windows, leaving you wondering who was inside, but that's about it. C'mon, WM, give us some more nitty gritty so we can live vicariously through you. |
