Good God!!! As a photographer he is an expert and genius. That doesn't mean a child should see the pictures and then ask age inappropriate question or want to hook up with their boy/girl friend and try some of the positions. That's not censorship, that's good parenting. If it "takes a Village to raise a family " then it is totally proper that the jurdiction steps in and says Adults Only.

ELLIS ISLAND BOB HOPE LIBRARY DEDICATION - Broadway To Vegas column - September 26, 2010

http://www.broadwaytovegas.com/September26,2010.html

Nobody has ever done more for the USO than Bob Hope. After he became too old to do his visits and television specials other performers could have taken up the cause, taped their visits and had a TV special, at least at Christmas time, like Mr.Hope did. A "reality" show on how a USO tour is put together with any stars they'd care to have picked; Connie Stevens, Jay Leno, Billy Crystal, David Letterman, Trace Adkins, Lady GaGa, Madonna, Cher, Katy Perry and those cheerleaders would have been interesting. Did anybody care enough to even try for a television special?
Thanks
Just call me An Old Vet who will always remember seeing Mr. Hope in person perform during Vietnam.

People need to know that being in pain causes suicides. When you tell a doctor you're in pain and they can't find a reason, you're told you're crazy. What you are is in pain. The medical community needs to realize that when a person goes from doctor to doctor looking for a relief from pain it's because they hurt, not because they want attention.

SCALPERS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF JIMMY BUFFETT CHARITY GULF CONCERT - Broadway To Vegas column - June 27, 2010

The people who bought tickets are as bad as the scalpers. Instead of spending money on tickets they should have donated the money to help the people and those poor oil covered animals. Give the money where it would do some good, then stay home and watch the concert on TV or take your chances at getting a free ticket the honest way.

SARAH FERGUSON, PRINCE ANDREW HEADLINES OVER SHADOW QUEEN VICTORIA EXHIBIT - Broadway To Vegas column May 23, 2010

http://www.broadwaytovegas.com/May23,2010.html



A dumb blonde has nothing on Fergie. She's one dumb redhead. Didn't anybody ever teach her that men don't respect women who really fall in love with them? They want the women who say 'Prove your love by giving me your money. Give me. Do for me' Fergie was stupid. She was so determine to prove that she really loved Andrew that she didn't go after his money. The Royal Family doesn't respect her because she let them walk all over her. It was wrong for her to try to sell access to her ex-husband, but it's really his fault. If she had been treated well, this wouldn't have happened. So she got her toe sucked. What's was the big deal? Diana had lovers. Diana died respected because she demanded money. Fergie is treated like a fool because she didn't place a value on her services. Let that be a lesson. Don't ever give away your heart. Rent it, but don't ever give it away.

Plan a trip to London next month and will see this exhibit. In the meantime I'm watching
the Fergie and Andy soap opera.. Fergie may be a show-off and financially incompetent of managing a dime, but that off-the-wall spontaneity is part of her personality that caused Randy Andy to fall for her.
Just because you no longer love somebody doesn't mean you let them fall down a well. The man is suppose to take care of the woman. The man plays, he pays. He should have provided her with a cost of living settlement and then insisted that somebody else manage it for her. Then something like this wouldn't have happened. If they aren't smart enough to know that, then why is that family ruling a country?

The public should stop being so hard on Sarah Ferguson. Any man who has taken up 10 years of a woman's time owes her. If HM had agreed to a proper settlement, this never would have happened. Queen Victoria wouldn't have stood for her Albert being mistreated. No difference here. Married or not, divorced or not, if you ever loved someone and then toss them out and ignore their welfare, what does that say about you? Shame on Prince Andrew.
