The list of celebrities aligning themselves with bidders for the Los Angels Dodgers keeps getting longer. The latest? Larry King:
Larry King, the longtime talk-show host who in September said that Frank McCourt “does not belong as an owner of a baseball team,” might try to do a better job himself. King has agreed to participate as a minority investor in Dennis Gilbert’s bid to buy the Dodgers, a person familiar with the bidding process confirmed Tuesday.
This is fabulous news. But, uh-oh, it’s causing Larry King’s not-yet-dead spirit to inhabit me again ...
For my money there was no better dancer than Gene Kelly ... Ronald Reagan was not just a President, he was a gentleman ... Why doesn’t anyone bowl anymore? ... Why hasn’t anyone given Angela Landsbury a big juicy role lately? Hollywood! ... I don’t miss smoking, but I miss my cigarettes ... Typewriters, maybe they weren’t as fast, but they made you stop and think ... Roddy McDowell: a better pinochle player than you might expect ...
Sorry. Can’t control that. It just happens.
