As a matter of fact, it has beenContinue reading “‘Cobra Kai’ Never Dies But All’s Well That Ends Well”

Remembering The Crichton Leprechaun

On my recent trip through Mobile, Ala., I witnessed a parade of floats passing through downtown as they apparently was on the way to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. But the one thing I didn’t see was the Crichton Leprechaun. Back in 2006, the Crichton neighborhood of the coastal city became one of the firstContinue reading “Remembering The Crichton Leprechaun”

SNL’s 50th Anniversary Show Is Golden

I think one of the most amazing things about Saturday Night Live isn’t its longevity. It’s that so many people of the original cast are still alive. While John Belushi and Gilda Radner passed away in the 1980s, others such as Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Garrett Morris, Jane Curtin, Larraine Newman and Bill Murray areContinue reading “SNL’s 50th Anniversary Show Is Golden”

In the 1991 concert documentary Madonna: Truth or Dare, Warren Beatty summed up the pop singer/actress/diva in one simple phrase when he said, “She doesn’t know how to live off camera, much less talk.” Ouch!
