Since 1976 Cathy has graced our newspapers, but on October 3rd she is coming to an end. Cathy Guisewite told AP even though her decision was excruciating, her “‘creative biological clock’ is ticking and she has other things she wants to pursue.” She did not elaborate what she will be pursuing, but I am sad to see this comic go. When I was kid I loved reading Cathy, and I am sad other kids will not be able to do the same.
Cathy is the second long-time comic strip to end this year, the sun stopped coming out for Little Orphan Annie in June. I hope Cathy is the last one to end for a while because, I don’t know about you but I loved reading comics when I was younger!

Zsa Zsa Gabor was rushed to the hospital after she fell out bed yesterday. Her publicist told CBS News, “She was watching her favorite show, ‘Jeopardy,’ when the phone rang,” he said. “She reached over to pick it up and fell.” After the doctors examined her, her rep said that they said that the 93 year old actress suffered several broken bones including a broken hip. He added that she will be undergoing hip replacement surgery tomorrow.
Zsa Zsa is partially paralyzed from a car accident in 2002 and reportedly suffered a stroke in 2005.
Let’s pray that she has a speedy and as painless as possible recovery.

Barbara Eden and Debbie Reynolds attended the Grand Opening Of The Casino Club At The Greenbrier and the two ladies put the red in red carpet. The 75 year old TV legend and the 78 year old movie legend were two red hot GILFs in their red dresses and they painted West Virgina red in those gowns! Seriously don’t both them look stunning and ageless! They sincerely never age. Now we know it wasn’t only Jeannie that didn’t age, but also the woman who played her!
I really hope I can look as good as they do when I am there age!

Phyllis Diller is 92 years young and she still knows how to work a red carpet better than anyone! She was the plastic surgery queen before Joan Rivers and Kathy Griffin and she looks 92% (a percentage for each she has been alive) natural and better than them. Seriously doesn’t she look great? She doesn’t look anywhere close to her age. If any of her plastic surgeons are still practicing or even alive, I totally want their numbers because they know to do it right.

The sun won’t come out tomorrow for Little Orphan Annie |

Leaping lizards, after 85 years Little Orphan Annie is coming to an end. The comic strip that launched a radio show, a Broadway show and movie versions of the show will cease to run on Sunday, June 13th. The strip that was launched on August 5, 1924 and once ran in over 100 newspapers is only seen in less that 20 today and that is why The Tribune decided to pull the plug on it according to The NY Daily News.
Although I haven’t read Little Orphan Annie in years, I am going to miss her, Sandy and Daddy Warbucks. So on June 13th put on something red and sing The Sun Will Come Our Tomorrow in her honor.
