We're even... I've never seen the film version. -

Wasn't the big number 'Singing in the Rain'? -

Liza Minnelli is 75 years old on March 12
samhexum replied to + WilliamM's topic in Live Theater & Broadway
So that makes you ~175 years old? You seem rather spry and mentally alert for somebody of your (very) advanced years! ? Forget Liza (with a Z, not Lisa with an S). It's @WilliamM that deserves kudos and a gala celebration! -
If it's a commandment, it should be 'Thou shalt not bump threads that don't interest you.' ????

I never suggested that every original poster to this thread was dead. I just asked @JoeMendoza if his intention was to keep resurrecting 20-year-old threads until he finds one where they all are.

And I was just commenting on the plethora of 20 year old threads I'd noticed @JoeMendoza had brought up. And I added this comment just so I could use the word plethora.

Couldn't you at least have given me a SPOILER ALERT before delivering such shocking (previously unknown) news?!?

Man says he lived in secret Veterans Stadium apartment For two years, Vietnam veteran Tom Garvey claims to have lived in a self-made apartment hidden inside Philadelphia’s Veterans Stadium. Garvey, now 78, says he secretly refurbished an empty concession stand inside the former home of the Phillies and Eagles. “I was like a kid with a Willy Wonka golden ticket,” he told the Philadelphia Inquirer. Garvey details his experiences — taking non-baseball hits in the dugout, halftime parties, and run-ins with Philly sports legends like Tug McGraw and Julius Erving — in his 188-page book, “The Secret Apartment: Vet Stadium, a surreal memoir,” which was published in December. He said he worked at the stadium complex parking lots through a company owned by his uncles. Through that job, Garvey received an office at the Vet and keys to an obscure entrance to the stadium. Across from his office — out in left field — was an unused 60-foot-by-30-foot concession stand. Garvey tricked it out with all the comforts he could: a bed, sink, fridge, coffee maker and hot plate. Leftover AstroTurf made for a good carpet. Parties were a hit — including with the wives of Eagles players, who were waiting for their husbands. “We’d put music on the stereo and have a drink,” he said. “The husbands would join their wives and have a beer, and then the lot traffic would pull out and we’d get their cars and have dinner.” Garvey was careful about his secret digs, never taking or allowing photos, though the Inquirer corroborated his story with multiple people. Not that there weren’t clues he was getting a little too comfy within the confines of Veterans Stadium. A Phillies doubleheader, extended late into the night by rain, made for a puzzling scene for remaining fans. “There were less than 200 people scattered around,” he said. “They didn’t want to know why I was there in a bathrobe and flip flops, they just wanted to know where I got a hot cup of coffee because the concession stands closed hours ago.” As all good things do, Garvey’s time in his clandestine apartment came to an end in 1981 when his uncles’ contract with the stadium lots ended. The stadium was torn down in 2004, and along with it any tangible proof his secret hideout existed. That seems to be OK with Garvey, who got just what he needed from the apartment after returning from war. “I’d been so busy for so many years when I came home and this gave me the opportunity to put things in perspective,” he said of his time living in Veterans Stadium. “I found it to be healing. It was a place where I went inside myself and found some peace.”

Is your intention to resurrect every 20 year old thread until you find one in which every respondent is now dead?

HUGE tv news and nobody posted about it?!?!?

That was just a patient's storyline. It had nothing to do with any regular character and was not an ongoing thing. -

I'm inconsolable. As was rumored, GREY'S killed off my favorite character tonight-- Dr. Deluca, the one who's been involved with Meredith the last 2 years. He was stabbed, then appeared to be okay after surgery, but they were only halfway through the episode, so I knew... There were a couple of tender SCHMICO moments tonight (Nico's been written as more thoughtful this year), but they were no salve to my deep wound. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sRkhF5l-nyg/TprN2NSXqxI/AAAAAAAABLk/LSYpZRnqO74/s280/Sad+Animated+Gif+Animation+Crying.gif http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sRkhF5l-nyg/TprN2NSXqxI/AAAAAAAABLk/LSYpZRnqO74/s280/Sad+Animated+Gif+Animation+Crying.gif -
Happy 114th, dad! The 1 year anniversary of the WHO declaring Covid a pandemic.

That would definitely be the bedroom where you'd put your drunk (or tripping) houseguest, have a hidden camera in the room, and submit the tape to America's Funniest Home Videos.
