A former U.S. senator ... klydon had picked him for his list.

A British journalist, Charles Wheeler, died at age 85. An American journalist, Dan Cook, died at age 81.

I have already made my list for next year lol




He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!"

So what’s the labyrinth?

That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

TIS gets a point. Evelyn Keyes, who played SueEllen on Gown With the Wind died. She was 91. I saw the headline that read, "Gone With The Wind" actress died. I thought, who the hell is still around? lol

Thanks Beth,

To be honest I forgot I had her. ohwell I went to double check. I thought the lists were on page 9, but didn't see it. I didn't realize even that she was in GWTW.



Anyway that gives me 3 I think.

She was one of the last one's left, Beth. I think Butterfly McQueen might still be alive, but otherwise they're all dead.

OK, I had to go look on imdb.com. Stuart Tarleton was played by Fred Crane, who is supposedly still alive at the age of 90 and living in Atlanta. He runs a B&B.

Good call, TIS.

For those, who have Ernest Borgnine, he has been in Harrisburg filming a movie, and I am happy to say he is doing well at 89. Last week he had heard that some seniors in a nursing home were fans, and he stopped to visit them. He has spent a lot of time meeting and greeting people. He seems like a wonderful person.

Kly,

Actually I think I do have Ernest Borgnine. Glad he's doing well. He's been around a very long time. I remember him mostly for Marty and Posiedon Adventure. smile

Keyes died on the 4th. TIS made the kill with 21 minutes left on her one-week time limit to claim a kill. (j/k)

TIS now has 3 kills and is tied with Don Cardi for fourth place.

Beth, according to imdb.com, yes they are. Bonnie was only 5 when she made the film. As for the actor that played Beau:
"The only male actor to have appeared with Vivien Leigh in both Gone with the Wind (1939) and A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). Played Melanie Wilkes' son in GWTW and the sailor who helps Blanche on the streetcar in 'Desire.'."

I hope it's not a week's worth of tributes. rolleyes I think when it's a media person (one of their own so to speak), they tend to overdo the tributes.

While on a human level of course it's sad for his passing, but as far as his media personna, I was never a fan of his.

Is that mean? Talking ill of the dead? I'll shut up.

Mig and I join this week's scorers... Dr. Michael DeBakey, a famous heart surgeon died yesterday at age 99.

Mig now has sole possession of first place with 8 kills. I have tied Don Cardi and TIS with three apiece.

I just heard that Golden Girl, Estelle Getty has passed away. She had been suffering from dementia for quite a while. Sad news indeed. frown
