That was about my dad. I thought better of it.
It got trolled on anyway. Lol

Do unto those downstream as you would have those upstream do unto you.
She made it way way past...meaning like, she should have been introduced here two decades past.
Somehow this milestone didn't get noted here - Mel Brooks hit 💯 a few weeks ago!
I laughed my 9yo azz off watching his Hitch tribute.

Pat Boone is 92 and still at it. See his utub videos. Saw him perform earlier tonight, out by the ceement pond in the Hills of Beverly. It was epic. Jed & Granny danced. Some song about never going back to Nashville. I didn't used to care much about Mr Boone, but dogged if he ain't something special.
I was shocked(?) by a tid-bit I learned (and reported herein) about him fairly recently. You missed it, I'm sure, as it was in a sports thread. You can track it down if you want, but likely wouldn't be something that would interest you. Just a surprising endeavor he was involved in.
He was passenger with Shatner, wasn't he?

Who's that sitting between Ellie May and Mr Drysdale?
That's quite the enormous orchestra and chorus they must have had crowded around the other end of the ce-ment pond there.
I just tried to find out whether Pat Boone appeared in ‘Nightmare at 20000 Feet’. Apparently I’m overthinking something.
