Another Loss
James Whitmore dies at age 87.
I couldn't not mention the loss of yet another of our elder actors. I take many deep breaths and sigh when we loose talented people and wonder if we will ever see the likes of each of them again...
******************************************
Thanks to Kelly I have this meme...
The Letter Meme
I decided to play along and do the "Letter Meme". I have seen it around and decided to let Kelly to give me a letter. The idea is to name ten things that you love that start with that letter. Kelly gave me the letter 'S', so here goes nothin'..
1. Star Trek: I'm guessing this is why Kelly gave me "S" lol Way before I ever met DeForest I loved Star Trek. I watched them all, right up to and including Enterprise, but the originals will always remain my favorites.
2. Sandwiches: I love sandwiches! probably because I love bread, and because it means I don't have to cook!!)
3. Spagetti Sauce: well.. there's a part of me that's Italian.. I think it's my stomach! I've always love tomatoes and especially Spagetti Sauce. I remember when my kids were young, my neighbor directly across the street from me was Italian. Every Sunday she made a big pot of Spagetti Sauce..and every Sunday I would go over to chit chat and she'd fill a cup with her sauce and tell me to let her know how it was! Oh yeah! I eat sauce even with out the spagetti!!
4. Stars: movie stars that is. Most know that I love movies and enjoy collecting autographs so this puts the actors high on the list.
5. Saddle: the western saddle, ...love the way they creak and love the smell of them.
6. Sale: 'Nuff said....who doesn't love a sale???
7. Stones: Stone houses and stone walls, trees, wood, and stone.. love 'em love 'em
8. Story, Storybooks, Storytellers: big surprise for this one huh? love books so it follows that i'd love the stories they tell, the books and the authors of those books!
9. Stuffing: I have to confess: I love my own turkey stuffing! yeah!
10. Sneakers: When I was young I loved boots... now it's sneakers! the older you get the more comfortable you want to be!
Hey, Kelly! I did it!... and it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be lol.. but I did it!!! Anyone else wanna do this?

I like stones as well. And Star Trek. And spaghetti sauce. And stories. And sarnies! We *are* related!
Yeah, I'll play. Though it might have to wait until later because I have chicken soup to make this afternoon.
Hi Cath: how about the letter H? (for Head?) no no lol.. ummm "M"?
haha, yep, I guess I gave you 'S' for a reason. lol I thought about 'D' for a moment, but changed my mind! The funny thing is that in many ways... I could have wrote the exact same list! I just don't like stuffing and I have never really done the horse riding thing...
Kelly: well when you choices have to begin with a certain letter it restricts you and I think then more of us find the same responses to use lol
RIP James Whitmore :(
I love your "S" list! Mmm, sandwiches. And spaghetti sauce! And who doesn't love sales or stories? :D
nymeth: yep yep love em all ! lol
'M' it is and I'm working on it... got 7.
He was an amazing actor and I was sad to hear of his passing. We do seem to be losing them far too fast these days...
I enjoyed your list, too.
cjh
cath: okeydokey
cj: I guess because it's one of those movies I always stop and watch when it's on tv, but I really remember him in Shawshank Redemtion. He was the old man that took care of the library.
Sheesh...you made it look easy, even if it wasn't! (Can I confess that I love my own turkey stuffing and my own spaghetti, too?) Oh, and stones...that's a great one!!! Well done, Deslily!
Oh I liked him! :( Great S meme though.
