both dead Elaine Stritch And Donald Sinden

[wildstorm 295]

She's packing up and heading to her hometown in Michigan, thus leaving New York after 71 years of residence.

 

On top of having "diabetes, an eye injury and the new hip" she was also escorted to the hospital after her final theater performance, though it was most likely a routine check-up.

[Guest Guest]

Despite another fall in recent months she seems to have recovered and started making appearances again. She does not appear to be at deaths door but the next fall could be the last.

Good friend, Holland Taylor, has tweeted that Elaine is in Birmingham, "recovering well from surgery."

Dead

This is weird, because last night I watched the episode of 30 Rock where her character died.

[Guest JaquieF]

She's shaken off the mortal coil at age 89.

Guest (Dean) Last warning. News of her death was reported 2 hours before you and 4 posts above yours. Shame I seem to have lost the ability to post smilies, you'd be getting the red card one.

Can we not just turn off guest posting altogether, I don't think I've ever seen a constructive comment from a guest?

I'm sure we had a few in the past, like a guy who said he worked at Brinsworth House, but they are few and far between. I now say if you have a desire to post more than a couple of time then you should really need to be expected that you become a member or in the case of Guest-Guest take notice of their annoying behaviour and mend their ways!,

Banning guests posting for a short period of time is in my view a worthwhile move that never-the-less can still be reversed.

How did Donald Sinden get dragged into this?

[Sean 5,997]

Because they (Sinden and Stritch) co-starred in Two`s Company in the 1970`s.

If we're relying on people who might not even be who they say they are, potential imposters or trolls, as examples of constructive posts by guests then what the hell does that say about the general standard of guest posting?

I'm in two minds, banning of guest posts will cut out a lot of the crap posts that are submitted. But on the other hand I found it useful to post as a guest when I had a weird issue with one browser not letting me log in and the other one allowing me to log in, but not letting me make updates.

[Guest pedro]

due to work 'Nanny' system, I cant log in to forums at work, but can post as guest. If I do I always post as Guest-Pedro. Just saying.

sad it is.............

 

Well use it as a hotspot and hook into that at work.

 

Or can you still send letters?

 

Actually is there a DL postal address?

 

It might explain a lot..........

We have a 'Nanny' system at our work, I can still log in to the forum though, I just can't click on any links for twitter and some of the other links that are posted.

[Deathray 2,933]

Just buy a better internet package and use your phone off-the-nanny so to speak.

Donald (done for his sins) has joined Elaine so they are in company again.

 

He made it to 90, so a good innings.

Odd. I just yesterday noticed they started showing "Never the Twain" on ITV3( or 4 or whatever). Must be the first time they've aired that in ages.

 

I guess you could say now with this news it's....... Never The Twain Again? (Maybe I should just leave the puns to those who actually got to watch that tripe..)
