This One's for the Children
Is it Over Yet?
It has most definitely been One Of Those Weeks.
In which case, all we can do is channel Thombeau, and try to Keep it together, Minnelli!
Julian Edelman
24 year-old New England Patriots wide receiver.
At Kent State, Edelman was a three-year starter quarterback.
Edelman himself has stated that he is only 5'10". Even though Edelman is taller than Wes Welker, the similarities in their playing styles led their teammates to dub Edelman "Welker's Mini-Me."
From Mrs. Miniver to Auntie Mame
Oh, how we wish there was preserved video of this performance!!! As much as we adore Roz Russell, and revere the film, one can only imagine the superbly silky heights that Miss Greer Garson achieved when she took over the role from Russell on Broadway. Imagine that deliciously plummy voice reeling off those one liners! Garson's appearance on What's My Line? during her run as Mame Dennis is as close as we'll get to having been there. Listen to the wild crowd reaction as Garson enters, in costume!
Garson won rave reviews for her performance; and, from the looks of this photograph taken a few years later, she and Russell maintained a mutual admiration society of Mames (who mingle with Merle).
Very Vera
Apparently, if you were named "Vera" in the Golden Age of Hollywood, you were guranteed fabulosity, if not superstardom.
