takeme2espana said...: I had the fortune to witness his humor at a star dedication a few months ago...he was a real class act. They don't make 'em like that anymore.; 1:34 PM
Twisted Sister said...: Janele, I thought the same thing.; 1:37 PM
jax said...: aww RIP Monsieur Hollywood.; 1:37 PM
Janele said...: It's gotta be, Twisted. Remember, we all thought it was Mickey Rooney and there's Mickey right next to him. hmm...; 1:40 PM
Liz said...: I just read the AP story about Johnny Grant, and apparently he was a lifelong bachelor. I seem to recall Ent saying that JJ's wife was roommates with Timmy, and that's how he knew the secret, or something to that effect, so I don't think this was him.; 1:42 PM

ooo...buzzkill. :-(; 1:44 PM
Twisted Sister said...: Thanks, Liz. At least we didn't go off on a wild goose chase for long.; 1:53 PM
Kara said...: Wow. I'm lame.

See that dark haired woman over on the far right hand side of the picture?

I think that's the woman who plays/played Katherine Chancellor's maid on Young and the Restless.

I used to watch that show when I was in high school (over 10 years ago).

What's her name?

Ah. Love Google.

Her name is Kate Linder. Even after years playing that recurring maid character on Y&R, she still worked as a flight attendant.; 2:08 PM
Twisted Sister said...: Kara, I used to watch Y & R, too. Here's a pic of Kate Linder that looks very much like the woman in the pic:
