Did You Expect Any Less From Me?

It is July 9th. Uh huh. July 9th and it still has not been declared a National holiday! Hmpf...well, for those who may not actually KNOW, (Grumble, why don't you, grumble) today is Brian Dennehy's birthday. Yes, his 69th. You are still pretty spiffy big guy. I send love, hugs, thanks and a *hurry up and sign to do another play on Broadway soon* wheedle. (Inherit The Wind closed yesterday) It was 31 years ago next month when I first saw this man perform and I still think he is one of the greatest actors (Okay, so I actually think he is THE greatest) to ever grace a stage. Happy birthday...I hope the day finds you surrounded by the family at home....get some much deserved rest and then hop back up on those boards. You pick the play, I'll get the airplane tickets... Here's to watching you perform for many more years to come...stay well and know that *we* are all still here to cheer you on! Now, did you really expect any less from me?

I have one question to ask you, Do you really like Brian or are you teasing us.lol. That was a great tribute. I hope he see it. It would make him proud, I am sure. I hope he has a very happy birthday. connie from Texas

Happy Birthday to Brian...and many more...and many more theatrical productions for all of us to enjoy!

I love Brian! He's one of our most gifted actors, and yet he doesn't get as much press as he should. And I bet he likes it that way!

Thanks for commenting on my rant about commercials. That one with the kid shaking the soda bottle is in my top ten most disliked, LOL! What kind of mother would act like that? I mean...if it was outside with a hose, that would make sense. But inside? Where you can damage your cabinets and floor?
And why is it that it's always the mom who does the cleaning?

Sheila said...

Happy Birthday to Brian! I was in the car yesterday and the man was mentioning all the celebrities born on that day, and naturally I thought of you when he mentioned Brian's name!
