DEAD GUYS TO DIE FOR!

Has there ever been or will there ever be another like him? I think not. The original saloon singer, one of a kind. King of crooning, confidence, class, charisma and commander of the Great American Song Book! The Chairman of the Board, Old Blue Eyes, "The Voice", Sinatra!

I was fortunate to have seen him four times. Twice at Cesar's Palace from f r o n t r o w s e a t s. So close I coulda TOUCHED HIS MARYJANE! Yes... I said his MARYJANE! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Da contenda! The Godfather! Stanley Kowalski........... Never mind "HEY STELLA"... what about "Hey K E R I"..... If Marlon Brando woulda called, I'd'a come runnin, no matter when or how much he ultimately weighed.
Frankly My Dear, I would give a damn and a few other things too. Clark Gable, let's get you out of those wet clothes and into a dry martini! Scarlett O'Hara was a blithering idiot. When it came to you, all her good sense was gone with the wind. With you, it wouldn't happen just one night, it would happen every night. I love You!
Ohhhh don't make me say anything about Cary Grant. Just let me look at him, hear him speak, watch him walk across a hotel lobby or watch him put on a suit (or take off a suit). The ultimate, consummate man of style and "debonair-nesss".. Grace in a button-down shirt, shear sex appeal on every level. Keri loves Cary..
Cool Hand Luke, Hombre, Hudd... dare-devil, class act, and he made a mean salad dressing too. Can you imagine, a face like this? Making salad dressing? YUMMMMM!
And not a tattoo on any of um! Any Questions?

LENA'S LEGACY!

Ms. Lena Horne, I'm going to miss you. No matter how you slice it, your legacy in lyrics, beauty and class will live on as the party in Heaven just got a little bit better.

I know you're up there singing with Basie, Ellington, Carmen, Joe, Frank, Ella, Billie and all the other Jazz greats who have lived in our time.

Your passing marks the end of an era, and your legacy will live on as one who helped to bring ever lasting life to the Great American Song Book. May it play forever and a day! Rest in peace.
