This great lady's birthday is today; whenever I hear Grey Gardens I think how much ass she would have kicked in the Ebersole part. As fine as Christine was, Madeline would have added a little extra ping as Little Edie.
I hope she found Howard Bannister's rocks and had a happy life with Mr. Larabee. . . :)
Do you know what happens when you let Veal Prince Orloff sit in an oven too long?

Guys, fflag posted something that's actually positive and relatively unbitter.
We should take time to be in awe of this Loch Ness Monster sighting-style phenomena.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

*gapes in awe*
I stopped watching "Cosby" after she passed. It was never the same.

Honestly, I've always found birthday threads for those who have passed away to be a little weird.
However, I’m all for celebrating her memory.
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

I'm just saying, it's odd to post birthday wishes directly to somebody here when the person has been dead for nine years.
This is not to say I didn't personally worship her or that I am super glad I got to see her in On the 20th Century before her blow habit forced her to drop out or that she made "Judy Berlin" a forgotten treasure or anything like that.
It's just ... odd.

All I have to add:
Have you no sense of propriety?

Posted: 9/29/08 at 2:17pmNamo, folks have been celebrating Jesus' birthday for some time now, and alot of us think that's idiotic.

All I have to say is:
"Yes I killed Yvette. I hated her. I hated her so much it it it it it...flames on the side of my face...heaving breaths, heathing breaths..."
"Men should be like kleenex...soft, strong and disposable."
Love you Madeline. :)

Yeah, Jesus has been gone like 2000 years. If we're talking shelf life here.
Love me some Madeline Kahn.
