This brings back fond memories
Two of the worlds greatest comedians
Red Skelton And Jerry Lewis
--------------------
People who didn't set a good example
Reese Witherspoon had been the last remaining America’s
Sweetheart
(after the fall of Britney Spears and Miley Cyrus more recently)
but
that changed after a video surfaced of the actress
challenging a police officer
who had pulled her
and her husband over on suspicion of driving under the
influence.
What made things even worse is that she even tried the
“Don’t you
know who I am?” card.
She was arrested anyways.
Tiger Woods used to be
a sports icon and what appeared to be a true family man.
However, he turned out
to be an adulterer
who didn’t respect his wife and ruined his family
over his
sex addiction and lies.

ReplyDeleteHi Phil, Just love the variety of Christmas trees.
ReplyDeleteThe Video of the sad and lonely old guy is terrible - - terrible because he had to
fake his funeral only to get his Family together for Christmas, only hope I never
have to take such a step - - hope this Video makes People, who behave like that
think twice - - we only live once.
I would give almost anything to be in the shoes of the wildlife photographer.
The carbonaro effect - - People can be so easily fooled - heee heee!!!
My Little Havaneser doggy would gladly join that mud covered hound who
found the ball.
The Colors of the Eucalyptus trees and the sandstones in China - absolutely
amazing!!
Unusual places in the world... super - - although I live in Switzerland,, we'll be
spending Christmas in the Blackforest Germany. The German hospitality is
one in a Million!!
Looking at that pic of Obama and Putin - it makes me wonder, what are those guys really plotting - :-) :-)
Then there's the Video of Andre Rieu the famous Austrian musician - the
guy may be highly popular at this end of Europe (sorry no fave of mine,
(sorry again, they funny People them Austrians) BUT then this superb
actor Denis Hopkins composes that wonderful Piece of Music - - I really
really think that is a masterpiece!!!
Thank you so much Phil for all the interesting and funny stuff you post.
YES . . . to understand People is truly like smelling the Colors.
I couldn't have said it better.
Take great care Phil and have a super week.
Best regards from me here behind the snowy Alps.
Celeste.
Good morning dear Blogger friend - - - I must correct myself. Andre Rieu is Dutch and not Austrian. :-) :-)
