The RIP Thread...

[MasterBlaster]

RIP, Mr. McMahon.

I used to get the impression that Johnny really liked Ed, and Ed, vice versa. That added some nice atmosphere to the show.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I taped Johnny's last two show. It's surreal watching it...

 

[NeTree]

Dang, Al... I just don't read this thread often. Hope you're hanging tough.

MB, that would be cool to have, flip on the last Tonight Show with those guys... was it bette middler that stole the last show with Johnny? My memory of then is vague for that timeslot.

 

[MasterBlaster]

If you have a VCR and are interested, I can send it to you if you like.

Farrah Fawcett died today: http://omg.yahoo.com/news/farrah-fawcett-dies-at-62/24308?nc

 

[Mr. Sir]

Farrah Fawcett

I used to have her poster in my bedroom.

Dang, Andy. You beat me to it by mere seconds.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Poor gal. At least her suffering's over.

Man. All the money the nation's armies spend on defense and war when that time and effort/money instead should be going into research and cures to keep us alive longer.

that sentence was hard to put together!

 

[Blinky]

I had the tan swimsuit poster in my room too. If anybody ever doubted her ability as an actor, 'The Apostle' settled it once and for all.


I have to say R.I.P. to Regg, a much loved bartender at the Wooden Nickel which is the Hillsborough watering hole. Boy was queer as a three dollar bill but smart as hell and fun to have around. He shot himself three days ago.

 

[stehansen]

Farrah was definitely hot. I had her poster with the red top.

Michael Jackson's dead

 

[MasterBlaster]

Pay attention, Lee.

And get your story right. He's not dead, at least not yet.

 

[Blinky]

Cardiac arrest, stopped breathing, treated and transferred to UCLA Med at this point. Where did you hear dead?

 

[Husky385]

News here says hes dead, your link says rushed to hospital cardiac arrest

 

[MasterBlaster]

You're wrong.

 

[Husky385]

Cardiac arrest, stopped breathing, treated and transferred to UCLA Med at this point. Where did you hear dead?

Sky news right now is saying hes dead..

[MasterBlaster]

If he ain't dead, I bet he's not long for this world.

 

[sawinredneck]

ABC news just did a story on his death. I cannot find a link yet though.

[SkwerI]

Good riddance. Can we move on now? I cannot believe MJ's death has generated more posts than any other death listed in this entire thread. And he didn't even have bewbies. :roll:

 

[Mr. Sir]

So I should probably NOT start that MJ appreciation thread?

 

[chucky]

Weird as he was, he still was an enormously talented singer, dancer, and performer. And he did a lot for sick children, which most people discount because of the child molestation charges, which he was acquitted for in a court of law.

 

[Paul B]

Skwerl, FWIW the posts about him crashed the Twitter service for a couple hours this afternoon.

Me, I dunno, I just hope his kids do well.
