Have you ever considered reading "The Catcher in the Rye"? 55250

Might mean "no foul play" and/or "no autopsy performed" and life insurance will be paid.

This reminds me of a French singer-songwriter, who for the last 17 years of his life couldn't get the public to like his new songs, instead demanded the old, established stuff. I heard him say sthg...

Maybe in the years to come some converging studies will show how much the nocebo effect impacted the reactions to the covid vaccines.

So she starred in "In like Flint". I've always wanted an explicit explanation about "in like Flynn": we are talking about being in a vagina, right?

Jean Hale was indeed a beauty. I stiil have a...

I beat you all with my French accent when I speak English, even more so when I speak Italian.
My way of speaking English has been strongly influenced by some guy from Tupelo, Ms, who sang Hound Dog...

Michael Richards wishes he had learnt to play the guitar.

By the way, another scientific proof that Elvis was and is the greatest of them all even in death, is that we never heard of Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Kurt Cobain or Michael Jackson sightings ;-)....

Is it in the US as it is in France, that is, deciding a while ago to use the phrase "person of interest" in order to be less stigmatizing and conclusive than "suspect", but after a while the...

Yep, quite a character.
It's tough for me not to confuse him with Evan Handler.

Anyway, Willie Garson also starred in "White Collar', which was a cop show artificial to the extreme (although a...

You're there, alive and healthy one summer morning, and nine days after that, "human remains" are found that are "consistent with a description of" you.

Crystal clear explanation. I would have hoped for something more spicy and raunchy, though. Real life rears its head sometimes :)

Probably off topic: it seems to me that the celebrity habit of having a zillion marriages has ended. I don't have contemporary contenders in mind: Britney has had two (?), Julia Roberts 2 or 3,...

Not to mention that I am not too excited with Eric Clapton to begin with.

They say he is a great technician, "guitar hero" and stuff, but something's missing, probably a lack of creative spark, or...

Not to shower you with local, French celebrities, but the case of Jean-Pierre Adams is noteworthy.

Born in 1948, he was a soccer player with international status in the 1970s, played for Paris...

This reminds me of the "Nobel disease", which is a metaphor describing how some Nobel Prize recipients embrace strange or scientifically unsound ideas, usually later in life, as they feel empowered...

Time to pick up your camera, set up a tent and bleach your hair.

Can I sue the guy who's suing Nirvana? For causing me, as a customer, a mental damage, a psychological stress out of thinking of his moronic ugly adult face every time I wanna enjoy this music ?

The guy seemed very nice. I guess "charismatic" is the word. "Lou Grant" made me answer "journalist" for years at the school question "what do you want to do if you grow up?*"

Plus, I always feel...

Boy, this was a thorough answer: big ups to you :-)

Believe or not, I'll give more credibllity to Frances and Courtney's mental distress if these picture were published, than to the mental...

Still no post mortem pictures of KC's face, though.

It is. More than early 1950s, there is a 1970s feeling to it, you know, faded Polaroid shots which were in a drawer for decades.

You've teased me and maybe the others too... but the pix doesn't show on my screen :-(

So, the Beatles have Lennon + Harrison, the Stones have Jones + Watts. We now have a tie, if I'm not mistaken. 55211

Ay, there's the rub.
Many of us want to live a long life but that comes with inconveniences.

Definitely some Allen-Farrow-Sinatra flavor there! Thankfully without Ronan Farrow opening his mouth and calling for censorship and getting it.

If you were a teenage boy in the 1980s and were in contact with Western pop culture, you definitely have been in love ever since with Tyrone Power's daughter, Italian-American singer...

Seems like the words photogenic and telegenic were invented for this man.
