He seems to be sweating a lot more facially in recent speeches.

I see from the photo accompanying the clip that Ellison has adapted the Trump β€œStarkweather stare.”

RIP Monti Rock III, to fans of the Merv Griffin and Tonight talk shows, the most frequent guest without any discernible talent. His heyday was the 1960s and in the 70s he scored two hit singles with the all-time name Disco Tex and the Sex-o- Lettes.

Nowm seemingly isn’t in the photo. Isn’t she Grand Marshall is something?

Beatty was too old to be a convincing football player

I wish someone journalist would track down the enlisted guys he led. He seems like the kind of officer who puts his troops in unnecessarily risky situations

RIP Juan Jose Valdez, a US Marine enlisted NCO who was the last man out of Vietnam. He also was prominently featured in Ken Burns’s Vietnam doc

Watched the Hersh doc. If you like old guys being testy on camera, it’s great. Otherwise pass.

Has there ever been a good campus comedy or drama for tv? Perhaps The Chair with Sandra Oh? Everyone references The Paper Chase, but I recall it as underwhelming.

One grandfather in Montana owned a hardware store and the other one owned a moving company and ran a cattle ranch in ND

I think Tuberville is un-passable.

Looks like shingles.

A Jay Leno video showcases a truly rare car, a 1966 Duesenberg prototype. It was an attempt by a Duesenberg heir to revive the brand. The car was designed by Virgil Exner, who designed the 1947 Studebaker for Raymond Loewy and the Forward Look Chryslers in the 1950s.

Don’t know the answer to either question, but that is a very large chandelier.

Millers is what made me think of Poulter, so thanks for the lookup!

Crippling the output of Will Poulter, the Rock, John Belushi, and Roger Moore (too lazy to see if any made a Warner's film.

We have a bright yellow one driving around our city. Looks like a lemon wedge.

I interviewed him in the late 80s. He was very funny and at that point very open about the studio system and early Hollywood.

Here's a clip of the first Korean supergroup to make it big in the US. The Kim Sisters were two sisters and a cousin who started right after the Korean War entertaining GIs in NCO clubs

RIP Robert Carradine, an idiosyncratic actor in films such as Coming Home and The Long Riders, but found stardom in Revenge of the Nerds and Lizzie McGuire.

The drooling doesn’t help either.

A couple of scenes with Kathleen Robertson and Hannah Ware might have caused some uneven sideburns.

Please send him into a war zone. I’d like to see him try the weave with live rounds flying.

RIP Tom Noonan, the tall, sepulchral actor who specialized in fanatics, killers and misunderstood employees. He is memorable in roles in Manhunter (as Francis Dolarhyde), Heat, Hell on Wheels and many others.
