How was her life sad? I just don't get that.

Agree completely with Motorboat Cruiser's post above.

Oh, but the special Liz cocktail they're whipping up for charity sales at the Abbey this weekend sounds gross.

I don't know if she found her life sad. I could see that from an observer's perspective it is a bit sad that over the last 30 years she was mostly worn down into a tired pop culture joke.

Plus, her last film role was The Flintstones. There's a lot of sadness right in that sentence.

SL didn't like Liz. Imagine that!

I liked her fine, the Eddie Fisher mishegoss notwithstanding, and I certainly admire the good works she did. But I think she had a tough road. Child star, eight marriages, Mike Todd's death, Burton's death, etc. I don't think she marries Nicky Hilton, Michael Wilding or Larry Fortensky if her life is in order. Add to that not being able to practice her profession in any meaningful, sustained way from her mid-40s. Obviously, I don't know how she actually felt about all this, but to me her public appearances always seemed weighted with sadness.

Maddie just told me she's sure Liz was in Grease

In all the hubbub about gophers and ol' purple eyes, we failed to notice the death of former secretary of state, Warren Christopher.

And now, because I wanted to figure out how to automate something in Excel, and by the time I figured out I couldn't I was too far along not to finish, I present the chart you didn't know you wanted to see until you saw it (and probably not even then):

Interesting. Every single Youngest was a female whereas only five out of the 12 Oldest are female.

Is that sexism or perversion?

I think someone needs to die so we can get this thread back on topic.
