    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    There's an interesting story behind his death too: he was shot accidentally while his friend, Lansing Brown, was showing him a pistol from his collection. At the time, Russ was engaged to Carole Lombard. His mother was in frail health, so she wasn't told of her son's death. Everyone in Russ'...

    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    And this has a Golden Era movie star connection - He came out of hiding to see his favourite actress Myrna Loy's newest movie, Manhattan Melodrama :) Dark, but very good.

    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    I've never read that one, I'll have to check it out! Landis' story is indeed fascinating. At the time of her suicide, she was in dire straits financially, had just finished with her third divorce, and had begun a dalliance with the married Rex Harrison (himself married 8 times.) He was the...

    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    And enjoy it :D I tend to be skeptical of these later admissions (For this I thank Peter Lawford.) Speaking of, Marilyn's death is much the same, though on a larger scale than Reeves'. There is so much conjecture and conflicting accounts and evidence involved that its eventually becomes up...

    Best beauty decision you've made?

    I'm younger than you, but I'll take a crack at it :p Start using them when you notice signs of aging, I suppose, but keep in mind that no cream is going to stop your skin from wrinkling.

    A question for the red heads...

    Aren't men candid. That's where Aussie's get the term "rangas" from, isn't it?

    Are my morbid interests showing? :o Regarding Reeves, I highly suggest you read this. As always, form your own conclusions!

    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    Golden Era stars who died way before their time

    I'll have to correct you there - Lana Turner was born in 1921 and died in 1995 at age 74. :) Jean Harlow was 26 (kidney failure) Marilyn Monroe was 36 (drug overdose) Veronica Lake was 50 (hepatitis) Robert Walker was 32 (accidental, overdose administered by psychiatrist) Montgomery Clift...

    Question: Tipping in Restaurants, for Services, ??

    Looks like you're heading in the right direction ;) The Loonie and Toonie are very convenient up here. Does anyone ever find themselves unable to tip because of an unexpected situation? Like when I was last in Niagara Falls, and I went to the little girl's room at The Keg overlooking the...

    Show us your vintage-vintage inspired Engagement Ring!

    Ditto what rue says. There are very good ones that come with little dipping baskets and brushes. I use one of these for my jewelry which is all white gold. :) (As an aside: be careful not to do this too often, or to soak it for too long - The cleaner can become corrosive!)
