Today’s Thursday Face (Friday has been cancelled) (and body) belongs to Sterling Hayden.
An actor who would have preferred to just hang out on boats, he traveled the seas of such far-flung places as Tahiti and Iceland.
Legend has it that someone spotted him in a magazine, and he ended up in Hollywood, making his film debut in 1941 with Fred MacMurray and Madeleine Carroll, whom he would later marry and divorce.
Hayden became a staple of Westerns and Film Noir, with a breakthrough performance in 1950′s “Asphalt Jungle.”
He married actress Betty deNoon and had a bunch of kids.
He worked with Bette Davis in the forgettable “The Star” …
He ratted out colleagues to the HUAC.
I just like this pic of him in his pajamas… that’s Gloria Grahame… you may remember her as Violet Bick in “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
Booze caught up with him. And pot and hash. He was arrested in Canada with hash.
He appeared in “Dr. Strangelove,” “The Godfather,” and kept working, living in Sausalito. He died of cancer in 1986, leaving his third wife and six children.
Here he is in one of my favorites… with Joan Crawford in “Johnny Guitar.” Subtitles are added so you can understand what they’re saying. (?)
This idiot. Below you’ll find, in her own words, what makes Sarah Palin this week’s Putz of the Week, along with the fact that she had a fork pizza lunch with frequent POTW Donald Trump.
In her revenge bus tour (seen above), she has not given her schedule to the press, causing all media to scramble to follow her. Why do they bother? She’s copy, that’s why.
I wish they’d stop.
I do hope she’ll be the Republican candidate, but I doubt it will happen. Who would elect such a putz as President? Republicans, that’s who.
Here, in her own words, the reasons Sarah Palin is this week’s Putz of the Week.
“In my opinion, any mandate coming from government is not a good thing.”
“I don’t think I owe anything to the mainstream media,” she told Scientolospondent Greta Van Susteren of FOX News. “I think it would be a mistake for me to become some kind of conventional politician.”
Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin says she is “still kind of contemplating” a presidential bid.
Asked by reporters about her plans, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee said, “Why should everyone jump in there right now and start beating each other up in this primary process, showing the other guys our playbook? There’s plenty of time…”
“I’ve said before that George Washington is my favorite founding father because he was reluctant to serve, and yet he rose to the great challenges before him.”
“I’ve said from the beginning, this isn’t a campaign tour, except to campaign on our constitution, our charters of liberty,” she said in her FOX News interview.
Cracked-out former sitcom star Charlie Sheen as seen in a rant last night on UStream, and actor Boris Karloff as Frankenstein, as seen eighty years ago during filming.
A perfect metaphor for the stalled US economy, a bloated, disabled Carnival Cruise ship full of non-working people is being towed slowly back to port while receiving government aid.
Here, a U.S. Navy Sea Hawk helicopter delivers pallets of supplies from the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan to the “Splendor.”
There are 5,000 people on board the ship, which is TWICE the size of the Titanic.
Jew-hatin’ imbecile Jesse James has found his burnt match in reality idiot Kat Von D, and I’d say it’s a match made in a garage somewhere in Orange County.
The moronic Von D tweeted this morning that she was indeed dating the former husband of Sandra Bullock, who kicked his ass to the 405 off ramp after his affair with a Nazi-esque stripper became front-page news.
I hope these two will be happy together — they can spend all their free time getting tattooed, because it looks so pretty on them.
Remember, kids, nothing says I loved you like having to remove a tattoo.
Zsa Zsa, 93, has left the building… she has refused further medical treatment after undergoing several operations in the past weeks, and has returned to her Bel-Air home (once owned by Elvis — who died August 16, 1977).
Lindsay Lohan, 47, meanwhile, is still being held in rehab at the same medical center, where she has been ostensibly cured of what ails her after just two weeks, and reports today say Dina Lohan is taking her home to Long Island.
Early last night I fell asleep while watching “Cash Cab” on the Discovery Channel. I woke up in the middle of something called “Ultimate Car Build-Off,” which had two teams of mechanics turning old cars into winged, remote-controlled vehicles they could then “fly” off a cliff… as part of a competition, of course.
I suppose if you jump into the rabbit hole of “Antiques Roadshow,” this is where you come out on the other side.
In a shocking twist, both cars were driven off a cliff, and lo, they crashed, with the ersatz host insisting that at least one “flew.” This, of course, was accompanied by a lot of whooping and making of the sign with fingers and pinkies being hoisted into the air, and I happily do not know what that’s called.
