Abraham Lincoln stashed papers in his Stovepipe hat.    Do you think Jack and Ike did too? Maybe that’s where Jack hid all those long-legged phone numbers. 

Marilyn Monroe lived in 20 different foster homes, sexually abused by more than half of her foster-fathers.

Shall we form a posse and beat up all their descendants?  

Marie Antoinette had a Pug called Mops she never left the palace without, till she was axed that is, for high treason. Apparently she never said, when complaints were laid at her feet by starving Parisians…let them eat cake.

See how rumors get started. Maybe she said, may I have some cake, France’s 1793 version of Fox TV.

I just saw Bill O’Reilly in a powdered wig eating Entenmanns.

Babe Ruth is buried at the Gates of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne, New York… gravesite: Section 25, Plot 1115, Graves 3 & 4. His tomb, regularly visited, is covered with momentos like baseballs, 5ths of whiskey and letters written by young Babe wannabes who worship the Bam, the Great Bambino, the Sultan of Swat. 

George Herman Ruth Junior died of throat cancer on August 16th, 1948.

He was 53 years-old.

The Yankees retired Babe’s number  given because he always batted third.  

When I visited him, I left a hot dog with the works, loving the story of how he used to pick up kids in his 1940 Lincoln-Zephyr Continental and treat them on the way to the stadium.

   

Thomas Jefferson promised his wife, Martha he affectionately called Patsy, on her death bed, he’d never marry again because she didn’t want another woman bringing up her children.

How selfish was she, and what a putz he was for listening. Hey, death do us part amigo, and if you really love someone, you want them to be happy.

Well, maybe not happy, but at least, taken care of.

  Francis Ford Coppola had to fight Paramount boss, Robert Evans, for Al Pacino to play Michael    in The Godfather, Robert Redford, Evans’s first choice.

I’m a Bob fan, but can you really hear him say…

“Fredo, You’re My Older Brother, and I Love You. But Don’t Ever Take Sides With Anyone Against The Family Again. Ever.”

NOPE!   

They also wanted Frank Sinatra to play the Don. 

Too close to home I would think, and speaking of Ol’ Blue Eyes, he wasn’t too happy with the Johnny Fontaine character that was based on him. Rumor has it, he threatened to break Francis’s and writer, Mario Puzo’s legs, but who knows. 

Was Fox on the air in 1972?

Robert Kardashian, OJ’s best friend, was Kim Kardashian’s father who appeared in court every day, to support his friend, even though some say he thought he was guilty, staying friends with OJ till he died of esophageal cancer in 2003 at age 59. 

Speaking of his OFF-spring, who now owns Jackie Kennedy’s Cartier Tank Watch she snagged at auction for… $379,500 bucks.

Is there no justice?

Her ass makes 6 of Jackie’s for starters.

Does the watch even fit her wrist?

           

Don’t get me started.
