He was fearless in flying to entertain troops all over the world during wartime for which I salute him!

Bob was quite the party animal as well. Furthermore some of his official history is not backed up by documentation. Paperwork shows he was still married to his first wife (who he had married in Erie in January of 1933) whereas he alleges he married Dolores in Erie in February of 1934 (while he was actually in NYC). Although I could not find it anywhere I think I once read he was actually two years older than he claimed he was...New book reveals the secrets of Bob Hope's past, secret marriage and affairs | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV | Express.co.uk

Birthdays are not a tradition in my old country. But... Bob Hope is an exception. He was a wonderful, caring individual. He not only supported the troops, he also helped orphaned children as casualties of the war from the OTHER side. The man was a great humanitarian. When I went to look at the Hollywood stars on the sidewalk, his was the first I went to see.

She sure upstaged Winona Ryder in Girl, Interrupted. :clap2:

Ryder was good in that too but Jolie got the Oscar that Ryder seemed to hunger for so much.

I've really liked most of Liam Neeson's movies, but recently watched 'Cold Pursuit'...and was underwhelmed.

It had the potential of being much better.

The movie it was based on In Order of Disappearance had more bite in it. It has almost the same scenes.

Bob lived well as this recent set of photos illustrates, showing how his 22,000 Palm Springs area home has been renovated. I have heard and read in this article that he was the largest landowner in California at one time.

In 1978 I took my children to Disneyworld. It was summertime, hot and humid, which left us all sweaty and diminished our energy and enthusiasm. My grandmother and an aunt took me to Disneyland in 1956, the year after it opened. I was 14 years old and totally enjoyed it. There were very pretty California girls around my age all over the place!

Went to Disneyland in the early 1970s. Probably when I was about 14 too.

She was also great! John Ritter's untimely early death was hard for me to take. He was good no matter the role he played and especially at physical comedy. The whole crew on "Three's Company" were wonderful.
