  1. Not from the Ontario I live in. According to googlemaps it's a 40 hour drive 😂
  2. She was great as Sue Ann, and the role showed her versatility in comedy. IRRC, she had apparently been considered for the role of Blanche in Golden Girls due to her previous success playing Sue Ann, but I am really glad she played Rose - a bubble-head who was not a dimwit at heart. And I think Rue McClanahan was originally supposed to play Rose, given her prior role as the ditzy Vivian on Maude. But I may be mistaken on that.
  3. I think her reported age may have been accurate. When she was on Maude in the mid-70s she looked about 40 or so to me.
  4. Well done! Who among us was not singing those words as we read them? Hahaha!
  5. I have never met him, but from his posts and messages he seems to possess a great blend of kindness, confidence and a good sense of humour.
  6. Amazing comedienne. She added something special to every show she was cast in. One of the last of the great ones from the golden age of television, now leaving Norman Lear and Carol Burnett to carry the torch.
  7. I thought it was the same person... perhaps the tattoos are not permanent ink? 🤔
  8. Omicron is hitting Canada pretty bad. We are at almost 14,000 cases a day in Ontario, and its a bit worse in Quebec. My relatives in BC have been worried because there have been more than 2000 cases a day for several days, and I just saw that they had more than 4000 today. But the number of people in the ICU has remained steady or may have even decreased in the past two weeks, so that should allay some concern. Hopefully Omicron is sweeping away Delta, which seemed to have much more serious symptoms and complications.
  9. I've heard that the aquarium in Atlanta is really good. I wasn't too impressed with the Shedd in Chicago, but haven't been to any in New England.
  10. Sounds like it was fortunate he owned a .22 caliber and not a .38 or a .45
  11. That's quite a level of questioning he does!
  12. I've seen $2M and $3M prizes listed on some tickets, but I think the tickets cost about $25 or $30 each. I have never bought any that have cost more than $5, but that might explain why I have never won more than $10.
  13. I wish I looked that 'scary'
  14. Like totally
  15. No, even though my brain sometimes feels as thick and dense as a concrete dam... hahaha
  16. Especially at Christmas
  17. Bogey Man? Does he hide under the bed?
  18. Not at all. Apologies for any miscommunication... I was and am being completely sincere in my compliment.
  19. I think it works quite well
  20. I looked at the site and noticed how it sensationalizes people's deaths, and also saw the comments left by various visitors to the site. Many comments were far from gracious, and IMHO, that approach is not helpful in changing behaviours.
  21. IMHO, your photos are better.
  22. Hmmm. It bothers me that a site like that exists. I'm a huge supporter of vaccines and would be vaccinated against everything if I could, but I doubt that posting the names and stories that way is doing anything to encourage a change in people's behaviour. Rather, it more likely only hurts the deceased family members who are mourning a loss. That loss is real, irrespective of whether or not the person who died was an antivaxxer. Not trying to be a wet blanket, but I think sites like that primarily stir the pot and don't address the main issue of educating people about the scientific basis for being vaccinated.
  23. Really? I always thought it was "Nobody does it like Sara Lee"... hahaha
