BrunoBrimley 86 Posted March 3, 2010 Artist Andy Warhol's 15 minutes were up on this day in 1987. I have an Andy Warhol painting in my bathroom. I selected it while at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh PA right across the Allegheny a short distance from the Roberto Clemente Bridge. Not an original I would guess, it's a curly tailed cute cat painted on a light switch plate, signed with the Warhol siggy and all. In other news, Julius Boros, who at age 48 was the oldest golfer ever to win the PGA championship, would have been 90 today if he hadn't fallen into that sand trap and the late Jackie Kennedy Onasis's sister Lee {Radziwill} is 77 today~~ ~~~~keeping to topic, it was 51 years ago today that the words, "Hey. Abbott..." were uttered the last time as Lou Costello departed Earth. Arthur Murray danced off the stage in similar style 32 years later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted March 14, 2010 Sociologist and political philosopher Karl Marx revolutionised his life on day this in London in 1883, aged 64[1]. [1] Marx was a chess player. Admittedly not a good one, but a chess player nonetheless. 64 is a fitting lifespan for a chess player. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
