  1. In order for Frank Buckles to lie in state in the nation's capitol it must be approved in Congress. This sucks out loud!!!!! Obama should step up and order this to be done, not only for the sake of Mr. Buckles but also in respect for the other Americans who gave their lives - or time - in service during the Great War!

     

    There will be no other WWI veterans left to honor in this way.


  2. Watching the classic "Psycho" from 1960 (50th anniversary of it this year).

     

    Just wondering how many of the lead actors are still living. Here is what I came up with:

    Vera Miles - played Lila Crane (Marion's sister) still living age 79

    John Gavin - played Sam Loomis (Marion's boyfriend) still living age 78 (I think).

     

    Once these two are gone, that will be the end of 'em.


  3. LONDON -- Guinness World Records said that 113-year-old British World War I veteran Henry Allingham has become the world's oldest man.

     

    The previous holder of the title, Tomoji Tanabe, died in his sleep in southern Japan at the age of 113.

     

    Allingham is one of only two surviving World War I veterans in Britain and celebrated his 113th birthday June 6. He has been Britain's oldest man since January 2007.

     

    Craig Glenday, editor-in-chief of Guinness World Records, said the last Englishman to hold the title of world's oldest man was Frederick Butterfield, who died in March 1974 at the age of 110.

     

    Allingham joined the Royal Naval Air Service - precursor to the Royal Air Force - in 1915, and a year later took part in the Battle of Jutland, the war's largest naval battle. During World War II he worked on measures to counter magnetic mines.

     

    Well...........CONGRATULATIONS HENRY! WELL DONE!


  4. Chastity done gone and changed her name to Chaz.....cause she is a man now. Amazing.

     

    She must have had one of those operations known as "add-a-dick-to-me".


  5. The woman has (had) talent certainly. Wasn't she at the point where she could have made a lot of money singing, entertaining, etc.? Why did she break down and collapse when she didn't win the stupid competition?

     

    Susan, honey, you are not a child. Be an adult!
